A coach with mentality of a champion...lets see if it makes any difference.

Prime's problem is they only have 2 players worth a damn in Proleague at the moment. Even if both could pull together a win neither of them (Keen/Yoda) are reliable aces. So even IF they could go 2-2 in a match there's no way they could close it out. I don't think coaching staff will make a difference as long as the proleague team is just B4/Keen/Yoda/TANGTANG. Throw in Byun and whoever they can pick up for next year and maybe they climb out of last with great coaching, but I just don't see it right now.

Prime's coach's SC2 name is Gerrad (like Gerrard but no third 'r'). Maybe his real name is Gerald but given that he's Korean I kind of doubt it.

Fun fact: Gerrad actually made it to GSL Open Season 1 back in 2010 as a player but lost in the first round to none other than Tastosis' first SC2 mancrush Clide.

Coach can't hurt but Prime needs some decent players and not sure who else there is to get out there since SBENU and MVP grabbed up all the teamless old-time eSF players.

A new (good) coach is excellent news for them and I'm pretty sure Prime can't get worse than it's current form.
Pretty sure Proleague would get much better w/ an actual 8th team rather than 7 plus a bonus.

Oh, does anyone know what the status of Byun is? I see him do well in Leifeng Cups all the time, but he's totally absent from anything of real signifiance... Him along with Keen and Yoda are decent players. I'd say all 3 of them have potential, and could be Code S regulars.

But right now, the team only consists of 5 players and Byun isn't even in PL. So it's a guaranteed 4 lineup, since Creator is gone now. I think they will need more than just coaching at this point. I'd love to see them pick up some higher-tier players and become a contender for at least 4th place in PL.

ByuN is all but officially no longer on Prime afaik. He doesn't live in the team house, he doesn't actively communicate with the rest of the team. He isn't on their Proleague roster. He's basically not on the team.

Considering most of the current good players have been snagged by sbenu and MVP, If I were the Coach/coaching staff
I'd consider picking up some foreign players to try and mold into a winning team. Not only would that vitalize the team with new players, but would get some big support behind them. That would be awesome to see, but dont think its going to happen.... Would definitely take a lot of time as well. Teamliquid partnership!! haha

Never heard of Shiycoms but hopefully they'll be able to pick up Prime as a primary sponsor. Coaching can only do so much with such a sparse roster.

Sorry, I just knew his ID in Korean, so just guessed. I'll edit it.

That's too bad, he's been doing really well recently in weekly tournaments like OlimoLeague.

I'm pretty happy for Prime about this, but will a good coach really help with only 4 players, 4 of them being pretty weak?

This has been a long time coming, the results just weren't coming in any more despite having most of the same players for several years. Given that the free agent pool is pretty limited I hope the STX coach can do what he can to raise a new generation of players to greatness, because I'm sure tired of seeing PRIME being the punching back of PL.

Well, I think KeeN has a chance, he's been doing quite decent.

hmmm... Stardust could be a good pickup, but he probably doesn't want. But on the other hand his US-adventure was no success at all, so perhaps he'll come back home.
Also Apocalypse could be an option. He isn't really good but he has quite some tournament experience and in a korean team house he could flourish.
Plus Byun and some time Prime could become a mediocre team
Furthermore, I consider that some kind of Code A must be reestablished.
