Gosh.

Every single fucking time I play a korean in a zvz on iCCup there will be huge fucking lagg spikes whenever I micro my mutas vs his scourges or whenever I try to fight of a much larger ling force with muta ling or any such situation when I need to micro quite a lot and he not so much. Then once the situation is over the game will nicely smooth out again.

Gosh.

Then there's the other type of korean. This one is most often seen as terran or protoss. The game will start out running smoothly on low latency making you think you're playing another foreigner. Then when you're closing in to the 2 minutes mark a few spikes will creep in, forcing high latency. Soon you'll be forced to raise the latency again and before the battles even start you're stuck with extreme spikes on extra high latency and there's not a shit you can do about it cause the game ran smoothly till the 2 minutes mark.

Gosh.

I've noticed stuff like this happen a lot too, makes me wonder...

But I doubt it's intentionally done by the other side, I think there is a more rational explanation as to why it happens.

pretty stupid idea that they somehow wait with the lag until you can't leave... And if you get over your stats you can just leave anytime in any game if the lagg is to bad

So, I think we can safely say
1. Koreans are good at starcraft
2. Countries that are very far away from yours lag more than closer countries

Why did you block out your APM when your total actions and game length are right there?

lol busted. actually the second one is 225. 133/(1-0.41).

Both players have close eapms but way different actual APMs and redundancy. The data shows that spamming clearly makes you better!

i cant believe you actually crossed out your apm as if its some private information

plus you can just calculate your apm from game length + actions

The one where the guy crossed out his name on his facebook but not-so-subtly showed off his friends box and wall.

This thread doesn't seem too different.
