I don't get it. Is being called an Acorn a bad thing?

Magma actually answered with a Korean proverb, "comparing acorns size". It indicates a situation that comparing them (things or people, 6 dragons in this case) is meaningless, because they are all weak, small or losers anyway. Acorn is used to indicate something very small.

Betting acorns is a different thing. Cyworld, a well known Korean social networking site, calls its online cache as acorn.

Basically he said that the 6 dragons are all so bad(acorns) that comparing them makes no difference, and that stork is the king acorn.

도토리/DoToRi/Acorn was used by Magma to mean "little punk/little kid". Not a serious insult in Korean terms, but one nonetheless (it could also be used to mean "cute little kid".

+ Show Spoiler +
Khan and eSTRO apparently had a fun match where they "bet acorns." Khan lost twice to an OCV (one character victory) by Magma. Stork felt the "insult" and these past incident called for "his personal touch" against Magma


Personally, i didn't think more of it other than a playful jab.

is there translation on the group selection?

Trash-talk between progamers has always been of particular interest to me.

There is translation of most of the trash talking in the group selection thread and it is hilarious. But it takes a while to go through the thread itself. 50 pages is no joke. However, i think it is recommened reading if you want to know more about all that funny trash talking that took place yesterday

And who said magma would be forgotten without backing this trashtalk up with his gameplay haha.
No, he has already earned some fans who will support him no matter if he advances from his group or not.

Also I find his trashtalking way less insulting than for example trashtalking and ceremonies from FBH, because in magma's case it was so obvious he didn't mean those things for real and I'm sure he fully respects Bisu, Stork and others (what I can't say about FBH).

Btw one thing that makes it even funnier for me - in czech language is translated word acorn used for top of this
