So I guess KT bought him just so he can lose to Flash so Flash can get his groove back? Really though didn't expect that. | ||

I wouldn't put Super ahead of TY in terms of talent from what I've said, and obviously not Flash. That said he seems to have some potential from his recent play in last seasons code s | ||

That makes even less sense since Super hasn't played in Proleague in months. There's nothing to back up he'd do better than them. And he did say "4th best", not "4th best PL player" or "4th best invidual player". | ||

For playoffs FlaSh wasn't fielded. It was odd to see but i think it was a good choice. It's possible that he will be fielded. But again it depend on practice. | ||

"When well practiced"? So at peak condition? If Flash and TY are in peak condition nobody would even bother thinking about fielding Super. | ||

Last year in Proleague he had a slightly worse record than all of Flash, Zest, TY and Stats. This year he started out well, then he dropped a bit, lost in Code A vs Flash. Meanwhile TY looked pretty good against Trap in the only game he played in Proleague in round 2. It's hard to say where Super is at if you compare them. | ||

So he'll be like First, I guess. Should be great for his solo tournaments though, with all those excellent practice partners. Good news for Super; but shouldn't change much for KT. | ||

I have now looked at the picture in the OP about 25 times, and I have come to the conclusion that it's to fill the void left by the retirement of Action and his hairstyle. | ||

I wouldn't be surprised if they bought him because Flash requested so. KT owe a life debt to Flash - ever heard the term "child labour terran"? | ||
