So Minty is not playing due to the mixed comms, of which he is unable to interpret Korean?

Damn, I thought he was the ace up their sleeve, because his sentinel play is pretty decent, and can play duelist as well.

1.4% (or to be exact, about 1388 in 100000 games, from simulations)

Must be really tough for Minty, but it is understandable since the language barrier was one of the problems that holding back CR in terms of developing their teamwork & comms.
