Well what horrible players are making money at major tournaments? In lan tournaments results seem pretty consistant for a lot of the good players so I kinda have to disagree with you ^_^. (unless you think you are better then the players who do good at lan events which would be silly).
When I think of something else, something will go here

I already read that from someone ... Oh wait, it was you already ! Nobody is forcing you to play, I heard poker is easy money, maybe you should reflect upon your career choice.

based on luck? hope that's a troll.

cloud, i hope you are joking. aren't you like some D level 'pro'? that's the kind of mindset you have? arent you the dude who was arguing with thorzain at homestory cup while you guys were casting about terran? pretty sure thorzain knows how to play terran. pretty sure he actually wins stuff and competes at a high level and luck doesn't have anything to do with it.

you have a ridiculous ego.

if it was based on luck the same players wouldn't be consistently at the top. and foreigners would have better results in general. they'd be getting lucky and knocking out koreans in these big foreigner fields with a few token koreans. but what usually happens when 8 koreans enter a tournament? we see 6-7 of them in the final 8 along with stephano or 1 other elite foreigner.

it must be so easy to tell yourself (speaking to everyone) that it's luck based. that's your ego trying to protect itself from harm.

this game isn't poker. and even poker with the inherent luck is still a skill based game where the best players win the most money.
