Of those who went to play in pro league, Thorzain maybe had one or two victories that i can recall but lost more than he won. Major and State probably lost all their matches. Stephano had a decent win-lost ratio but was nothing impressive. And of all the recent(2014/2015) invites foreigners have gotten into korea, sadly none have shown that they deserve the invite. So as much as i like Snute, i fear for his chances this time round. | ||

Everyone had access to the game for an equal amount of time, so trying to discredit someone like jinro because "well players weren't as good yet" is a stupid argument. Facts are facts. Yes he fell off afterward but so have lots of players once they got near the top. I can list countless koreans who were considered top players in the world and then a couple months later weren't able to compete with the best. Also you completely forgot naniwa who posted back to back ro8's in GSL during 2012, something no non-korean has even come close to doing since then, and he was one game away from reaching the semifinals in one of those. He clearly showed he belonged in GSL at the time. And in Proleague any player who can maintain a winrate about 50% is very impressive seeing as its one of the most competitive leagues there is. Stephano finished 6-5 for EG-TL which is a pretty big deal | ||
