but destiny is 'only masters in korea' you have no idea how the ladder system works so its more than possible destiny is higher than incontrol in korea. i dont even like destiny, my point is merely even in a thread where you 'researched' the facts about him, you dropped in some bias here and there. | ||

But he does not have all that many achievements. Also what exactly are you trying to get out of a thread like this, everyone to go OMG DESTINY AMAZING RANK HIM HIGH AND GET HIM ON A TEAM. I am a little confused, shouldn't this be in his fan thread? I agree, i do not see why he needs a Thread ? What is your goal with this ? | ||

Completely agree with this, ofc his showmatches show he has some skill but until he produces proper results when it matters you definitely can't rate his skill level that highly. | ||

A big part of Destinys appeal is also that he is so anti establishment.. and that means its going to be very hard to sell him to a sponsor. The funny thing is that IdrA and Destiny are actually similar in many ways. Listen to the SOTG episode where IdrA and Destiny was on, and it was basically those two agreeing, against the opinions of the other hosts. IdrA doesnt give a fuck about sponsors or teams or convention and respect.. he just want to beat people. IdrA however understands that he needs the support of the team do get those opportunities, so he does the bare minimum he needs to be marketable. He understands that the skill that he possesses is not enough, but that he has to sacrifice a little bit of his independence to do what he loves. Remember, IdrA went o his own when he was 18 to sleep on a cold floor in Korea, just so he could play the game he loved, 12 hours a day. Now money has become a factor, but guys like IdrA and Destiny are actually the people who would be doing this without the Intels and without the 10k stream viewers.. | ||

He was on a major team but left because he didn't wish to censor himself. He's a good enough player to be on any foreigner team. | ||

Nevertheless. People arguing that Destiny doesn't want to join a team because he doesn't want to change his attitude are mongols. If you've followed him long enough, or even looked at his name. ROOTDestiny. When was he ever in the news for bad behavior, or BM in a team? CoL just made it look that way. | ||

I think top teams would be stupid not to try and pick him up, if not just for the marketing value he brings, but you're going to have thousands of people waiting on his next big win. The fact is, he's an interesting character, he plays entertaining games and he's far, far more likable than a lot of top players. | ||

Where as Destiny takes series of good players but has not really had a good tournament showing(yet?). | ||

His infestor play is funny, but that's all. Beating Bomber or Puzzle doesn't mean anything if you can't get any good performance in a tournament. Summing up, he's way overrated and I don't see any reason for him to be in top team besides marketing. | ||
