Glad for the players that got picked, but I still think it would of been a much greater opportunity for three up and coming talents who don't already play the game full time. I doubt Ret and desRow will get as much out of it considering they have all ready been playing the game full time and in training houses in Korea, would be nice to see what some unknown talent could have done with the opportunity.
I'm very very happy for them i think ret deserves it so much! But you guys didn't take an unknown player? Which would of been good for him getting a chance like this. Oh well good luck guys! hope you guys gets some really good practice over there.
Lol ofcourse they picked the most known and allready acomplished players. Why not give new guys a shot? Like you said you could be from bronze to Grandmaster and all I see are grandmaster players which have allready made a name for themselves. Nevertheless hope to see some promising results come of this

I fully agree with you. If they decided to pick best players Happyzerg outclasses Desrow alot. I know that Desrow has support at teamliquid but still I dont see him as a good addition. HappyZerg is really good and he can become as good as Nerchio and Stephano soon.
Despite the fact that I was hoping this would develop some future unknown talent, I can understand, afterall Ret and Desrow will certainly bring a lot of exposure, and TitaN will also bring his fair share of that, but still, Major would of been a much better pick than desrow mainly because hes an amazing foreigner Terran, and you guys seem to be needing one really badly.

This makes no sense at all. If they can save money by getting him in there for free for 3 months why on earth would they pay 1800 Euro? That is a lot of money..
That's not the point. Of course it's awesome for Ret and TeamLiquid that he will train for free and congrats to them. Also, it's pretty clear how this is good for MoW to pick better known players, considering their marketing... The point is that players like this can in fact afford going there and paying anyways, thanks to the sponsors they already have, while a lot of less known players willing to deticated their time simply can't afford going there and paying for it without having a big team.
Once again, I love Ret and am happy for him, but at the same time it's a bit sad that they didn't give at least 1spot to some unknown player.
Why Pro-gamers are going to the house training? Why dont they give the chance to unknown players with skill?
Sorry but this seems like to make money instead of helping players grow :| Exposure. Money gets envolved and they start to screw perfect things like ESPORTS.
Agreeably, it is a bit disappointing that only already established players got picked. But it is understandable - they want exposure and they will certainly get it with big names, rather than if they picked players, who are unknown. Best of luck to those picked, hope you have an awesome time & a good training enviroment in MoW.
Finally a serious house for desRow to grow and advance in, and TL doesn't have a house as far as I know, so this will be fantastic for Ret as well.
I love the pics, these are definitely the players that has the skill level to get the most out of going to a house of this caliber, rather than masters who'd just randomly wing their games and just want the bragging rights of being in a house.
