So i was thinking "oh yeah D level foreigner protoss ezmode"....the guy proceeded to DT drop me ~10 times and take the whole map and raped me. Then later when i was checking his iccup page i saw that he was korean....

I usually answer honestly to the "from?" question, and I don't really get affected by their answer. I mean, a D+ is still a D+, I shouldn't be afraid of the korean A++ in disguise just because he said what country he's from.

I always say I'm froma vagina and as you can see from my sig I'm not much of an emotional player.
Your resistance only serves to make my carapace harder.

i say i'm from armenia

the worst part about people asking "WHERE FROM!?!" is that it seems half the time they're expecting a certain answer (either from korea or not from korea) and if you answer incorrectly they leave. it's a real pain in the ass

Sometimes asking where they're from helps. Yesterday a guy said he was from Belarus, (I generally assume people are telling the truth), and it boosted my confidence because, no offense, but I bet I can beat the best sc player that lives in Belarus.

Another tip: Having a gosu record may be good for the ego but it makes it hard to get games cuz if trying to get opponents in channel they will dodge you. Get a terrible record and people will be eager to play you even from 1 step up ranks because they figure they can most likely beat you so it's worth the lower reward/higher risk.

This ash.koll could be really good in a few months if he keeps playing this much

I played him a bunch and he wasn't bad... I would say on the same level as aCe or Gan or so.

Obv by spelling your countrie's name wrong you look like a noob, you could say Corea and they would still think your a noob.

Corea isn't really incorrect spelling.
