Everyone has the impression that Koreans joining foreign teams means better practice partners for foreigners, but that's not always the case. Liquid for example, does not have a team house and none of the players have lived together since oGs-TL and EG-TL houses. Of course there was a time when Jinro, HerO, and TLO got a house together in Korea, but can you really count that as a gaming house? Of course we can't really say how much practicing goes on behind the scenes when the pros aren't streaming and tweeting. You never know! | ||

But I don't think that acquiring Dear will help the players from mouz nor the foreign scene unless mouz builds a team house in Europe and that Dear comes to practice in Europe on the EU ladder. But that could also cause Dear's level to decrease in the long run… | ||

If that's true then no one practices more than 5 hours a day, and almost everyone practices under 4. edit: http://www.sc2ranks.com/ and sort by wins. It takes around 4-5 hours to play 20 games, and the season started around 40 days ago. Notice that everyone has under 800 games played, and the majority of players have much less than that. The GM average seems to be under 400 games, which is around 10 ladder games a day. So either progamers play lots of customs, or they practice much, much less than 8 hours a day. | ||

I hope to see more Jaedong, Innovation and Dear at those tournaments, battling it out. Should be great to watch in 2014 Yup. I watch SC2 like I watch basketball. I watch WCS Korea for the NBA-style best of the best against each other. I watch foreign tournaments for the same reason I watch the US national team, to see one dominant country beat the crap out of hapless foreigners. | ||

sc2gears multi-rep analysis shows average game is 12-15 minutes real time. even if people play really long games it would be like a 20 minute real time average, which still puts 800 games a season (which no one in top GM has) at well under 8 hours a day of practice. Thanks for your useless comment, by the way. | ||

Thanks for your useless comment, by the way. I won't even begin to discuss why a call for a source backing up a claim isn't a useless comment... Talking about Lucifron / Vortix, are there any semi-big big tournaments in Spain apart from what ESL and DH organize from time to time? Liquipedia only lists LVP, but the last tournament in that series concludes over half a year ago. | ||
