Question: If Kespa pros switched last year when the Elephant article was published on TL, would the gap between GOM and Kespa have been as big? Or do you think they would have been much more competitive at the switch because the game wasn't as mapped out so their mechanics alone would have carried them farther?

Soulkey got pretty shafted with his matchup, though I suppose for him to really make it he'd have to beat a top player at some point, which was doubtful to happen =/

I think the qualifiers are actually taking place at e-stars 2012 which is a gaming convention in seoul. Which is why you see the huge booth/stage setup. And only the 3 matches were saw were schedule for the main stage and thus broadcasted. The other games are being played in another room with rows of PCs and not being streamed.

What's up with this theme lately of horrible OPs that are never updated. Pretty annoying tbh.

If they trained as hard as the teams do for BW there is no doubt in my mind the current KeSPA players would be the best if they had switched a year ago.

Probably. But would their sponsors have followed them? One of the reasons BW players can focus on their practice is because they have big corporate sponsors which makes them able to give their players good salaries. Would Flash be Flash if he had to fly all over the world monthly to play in foreign events, or wake up in the middle of the night to play in European online Cup so he could make a good living? I agree that BW pros are very hard working and dedicated. But their team infrastructure allows them to do that as well. That is why we see foreigners who stay in korean pro house usually show significant improvement. And by all accounts, BW pro houses are much more established and well ran then SC2 pro houses.

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. I meant to ask how they would be last year when they first transitioned (assuming they transitioned last year). Would they be closer to Code S stars?
