And you seem to think that raising your APM will make him better mechanically or potentially i doubt this is true even in the slightest
And i doubt it would be Castro, they cant have someone cheese every game and except to get far :>

Check his EAPM (its not low for sure). APM means shit, EAPM = DA SHITT.

You are always talking shit in like 50% of your posts when you're such a noobie yourself

DInot, has a huge chance, but maybe a underdog got invited and we'll never know

it took alot of bitching to get them to compromise on the age thing, which is illogical in the first place. but you cant compete with koreans when theyre twice as fast as you. just not gonna work.

hmm JF trumps all but he does not want to go, who ever goes is luck non the less

Umm, no, APM matters. I remember reading an interview some time ago mentioning almost exactly what Snare said. Teams essentially picked out players with high APM (i.e. raw talent) and then teach you how to play. To me, this makes a lot of sense. It's a physical limitation and it's not something you can teach easily.

Not sure who will go, but JF would be a good pick, if he wanted to go.

g5 went.. not me. But as for non korean z's the only ones are suncow and i think razer might have been a zerg? But he was more "there" and less "went" I believe.. in fact it really is only suncow.

lol ToaD? what the fuck who is that hahahaha
i bet he lied he is the best foreigner or something and the idiot team was gullible enough to believe lool

I couldnt remember who was the other Usa player within the past 2-3 yrs who went aside from me. I could have sworn it was you though. Totally messed up >_<;
Its an experience though. I pretty much wasted $1600 on airfare but it was still enjoyable for the time I was there. Im looking into going back later this year but for work instead, since I'll probably be stationed in Seoul at Osan Air-Force Base, then I just gotta find a way to sneak off on the weekends from the wife and baby girl
