Chinese SC2 is fun, now imagine that in Proleague where the sickest builds can snipe/bring a victory, and boom! Jim took a map off Maru without even using a snipe build this year. So at the very least it's gonna be interesting to see what they'll do. | ||

Jim, MacSec and XY are not Stephano. But yeah I think they'll get a win from time to time. Prime was forced to make a move to improve, there weren't a lot of solutions available. | ||

"This partnership provides Prime with two unorthodox Protoss players that could serve as powerful replacements for MyuNgSiK. The Chinese players will also move to South Korea and reside in the Prime house to further their development as players and facilitate simpler travel to and from the Proleague studio. iAsonu, notable for winning the most recent Golden Professional League and being one of China's top Zerg players, will not be part of the joint roster for round three as the game takes a back seat to his education for now, but will join the roster if the partnership continues into round 4." It's been too long since we had foreigners go to train in Korea, this will be interesting to see what they do. Either way, it isn't a yoe thing where the foreigners never actually play | ||

One thing is losing more matches than you win, another is not being useful for Prime. | ||

They barely had any chance to show themselves in PL but they improved a lot with the mercenary experience. From Liquipedia article on Lx: During a Chinese interview after departing from SK Telecom T1, Lx said the inability to participate in intricate strategic discussions and mentoring due to language barriers was his greatest problem during his progaming life in Korea. Lx said his skilled improved drastically when he began training in the pro house and used to beat Fantasy and BeSt at a regular basis. However after a while he felt a stagnation of his progress and skill while Fantasy continued to improve due to mentoring. Lx mentioned that his skill would've progressed a lot further and would most likely stay in Korea if he had learned the Korean language. I wonder how they're going to tacle the language issue this time. Learning Korean will take some time. | ||

Cool to see Prime again partnering with the Chinese community. Hopefully it gives them a little bit more roster depth and a shot at taking some more maps. Lastly, someone please tell us if Byun is still on Prime. | ||
