Just looked at my last 25 losses on iccup, and the fact is that out of those only 5 are to foreignes, 3 of them to some B russian terran player with 70 - 30 win/loss.

That means 80% of my last 25 losses are to koreans. Crazy guys. Just crazy.

If we count the russian as a smurf that means ~90 % is to koreans. Mind boggling.

Now consider the fact of the amount of Koreans playing ICC compared to foreigners depending on your playing hours and then give some new percentages.

Well I mostly play during non-korean time, since I live in europe. So that makes the percentage even more crazy. I dont dodge though.

It doesn't seem that you're aware, but this thread is just bad.
You know, iccup has its own forums too, go bore them instead.

It's just that his blogs are all like this. If it weren't boring and had a little content, I wouldn't mind reading but come on! Make a little effort at least.
Also, there's nothing crazy or mindboggling about playing Koreans. Everyone does it all the time.

If you also gave us what % of your last 25 WINS were to koreans, this blog might actually be interesting. As it stands now, it's pretty pointless / retarded

So I shat in a bucket and there were a few seeds and pieces of corn in there. Turns out that 90% is just fucking crazy shit in a bucket. Now, keep in mind that if those pieces of seeds or corn might be korean grown and are considered shit too, that is 99% crazy shit in a bucket.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

come to think of it koreans are kind of above-average at starcraft
honestly think about the last time you watched proleague? What percentage of those guys are korean? Like, fifty percent? Fifty-five percent? It's up there for sure

why do we always refer to koreans as a totally different species?

"omg i'm losing so many games! oh well all of them were vs koreans so it doesn't count :D"

wtf?

they have two hands just like us, and those who play on icc are those whose parents are careless enough to let them bury themselves in their basements and play for an insane amount of hours and eat peanut butter only. that's why they're so "good."
