 He gave some of the best interviews. Will never forget his 3-0 comeback against Symbol with the manner nexus. Also this game: | ||

Fitting that he went down to Byun in his final match, given that he was the one who beat Byun in his first big run. | ||

Several bad decisions- notably being in a winning position with a 1/1/1, pulling all his SCVs and just sitting around for a while before he finally attacked when Seed had tons of defences up. It wasn't a great series for him. | ||

The only new blood that has come into the Korean scene in the last year or so are veterans coming back (ByuN, MC) and DRGLing, who's only televised game win came vs Bbyong in the game Bbyong threw. So we're in a terrible situation where lots of players are retiring and none are taking their places. Eventually it will get to a point where the quality of players will begin to drop simply from teams struggling to field a lineup. | ||

While they haven't been getting into code A there's still Eagle, Nightmare, SGW, Zoun. And players like Speed and Sorry who have gotten into code S/A | ||

And players like Speed and Sorry who have gotten into code S/A There are some other amateur players who're basically just waiting to get picked up by bigger teams. Most of them just aren't good enough yet. The closest are probably CJ Rookie & CJ Nightmare (they did relatively well in the most recent qualifiers). Sorry and SpeeD are still young, but they've been trying their luck ever since the KeSPA transition, so who knows when their patience runs out. SKT even dropped Sorry from their Proleague lineup entirely in favor of Zoun, last year Sorry played the opening game in the Proleague finals. And SpeeD already retired once. There are some guys, but only time will tell if the next generation can take over. Some of these players aren't easy to replace. | ||
