And this still doesn't make them better than KT, unless Kwanro is going to be their Flash sniper 80 | ||

I know they don't have good zergs but what makes them think they can revive Kwanro and build him into a good zerg when for the longest time they've been unable to produce a good proleague zerg? The fact that Kwanro is more suited for series play than proleague play makes this even more confusing since it was plainly obvious that he was hardly an asset on Woongjin Stars, a team with a much better zerg lineup. Win rates are deceiving, Kwanro won a lot of games but a large chunk of these games were won against some of the weakest players in proleague (Hogil, Chavi, SKT zergs, Firefist, Reach, etc). In this analysis you say that Kwanro is both better suited for series plan than proleague and then in the next breath suggest that his great stats are only because he's beaten some of the easier A-teamers in Proleague. And this without mentioning that everyone who plays and wins regularly in PL gets to play their share of bad players. Kwanro is no different and suggesting his play is more suited to series play, when he barely ever gets far in leagues, compared to his strong regular performance in PL seems off to me. He's a proven winner, people just dislike his style as being too early game or cheesy, much as people hated on Leta for the same thing. The guy wins, he's one of the stronger zergs out there, I'd be happy if I was a SKT1 fan. | ||

Really though, such a lack of confidence to Hyuk, s2 and SoO by the SKT Manager. | ||

They had Fantasy Although Midas did go on a tear not too long ago, Canata was doing just as well, if not better last year. | ||

July and Gorush can attest to that. Sigamari too. on topic: like someone said Kwanro is good at getting his job done, but on the other hand hes pretty "unstable" if I can call him like this. Anyways, if SKT had him in lineup before set 6 started in last PL finals, nothing would change. | ||

I tend to agree with this. SoulKey is pretty good and actually wins games that go into the late game. Kwanro was kind of a let down for Stars, other than ZvZ. But to be fair, Free and Zero underperformed in the later rounds as well... | ||
