Well, considering high schools in Korea go really late at night (until 9pm?) I'm pretty sure they have to miss some class.

Yes, Nerchio and Lucifron are a similar skill level to Leenock and Maru. Haha, dream more.

You do realize that Naniwa is Code S Top16 right? Or did I miss that this thread has turned in to a troll thread?

Jesus, it's my dream to be able to play guitar and smoke weed all day and not have to do stupid education or stupid job but that doesn't stop it from being a stupid and irresponsible idea Dreams? How naive
So you think not enjoying life is preferred to following your dream? This mentality is incredibly fucking depressing. And it's so common. Do what you want, fuck people that think you need a 9-5 job to live "properly."

Maru is definitely leagues ahead of any other foreign Terran.
Leenock is obviously leagues ahead of all foreign ZvT. His ZvP is not good, ZvZ pretty decent.

You're special aren't ya Actually, he has a pretty good point. Even Naniwa seems to acknowledge his relative weakness compared to top Koreans. He beat Ryung, who has horrid TvP, and Puzzle, who has horrible PvP (in a matchup that's already a coinflip in some regards).
Is he good? Obviously he's good, but this doesn't erase his 1-12 code A record.

Better to have five years doing something you absolutely love and then leave than struggle through something you can't stand and resign yourself to a job you don't want.

Wow! Look at those major tournaments!

He won Battle in Berlin (over Stephano, Kas, Ret, Goody, TLO, Grubby and Socke)...
Placed second in IPL 2 (not even going to try to name the players)....
Then in HomeStory Cup IV he advanced from his first group in first place (over Socke, iNcontroL, Thorzain) then advanced from his second group ALSO in first place (over viOlet, HerO, Naama). He was knocked out in a single elimination bracket by the champion, MC. Only match he lost...
Any doubts how good he is? All these were major events...

Boxer. Dat money.

As much as I want to see young players playing to the peak of their potential, I don't want to see kids throwing away their future to get into a very volatile and niche industry. Stay in school kids.
I feel old.

In America, when people retire from sports, most of the time they have enough money to open their own business and live comfortably. Yes, some people have education, but most of the time, they don't need it because they're their own bosses. Life isn't all about working 9-to-5 jobs, people who works those jobs are people who go safe and don't have money in the beginning anyway.
If you make that kind of money like MC, Stephano, you can just buy 3,4 Domino franchise stores and live comfortably with income ~$6000-8000/month. Hell, as young as Leenock is right now, with the money from winning tournaments, he can live more comfortably than average salary man if he knows what to do with the money.
