oh boy, i've seen hundreds of sjow's games and i dont really think he is ready to compete at korean levels

his style isnt very compatible with the current metagame we've seen on code s

but again, code a level of games was a huge disapointment...

meh, what do i know, maybe the guy does have a chance lol

Sry, but i dont think hes good enough to achieve something in Korea... sorry

hes most acomplished outside korea. when ret went to korea he wasnt the best too but with practice he became very good to compete in gsl

im sure sjow knows what hes doing and he wouldnt go to korea if he didnt think he wasnt cut for the job. wish him best of luck im sure he will do alot better than majority of the foreigners so far attempted

Honestly if you look at almost all of the code A matches, and some of the lower code S, you see that the top 10 foreigner players (not counting those who already are in korea) would crush that, hands down.
This "Koreans are always the best" sort of thing isn't really relevant anymore imho.



Lol yes it is... imagin adding all the european players and american players together we would have over 3x the amount of "selection" and possibly half the amount of talent... Just becuase you see a few of the Code a games not so great... doesn't mean shit really

We have only 2 of the Absolute best forigners in code S ... thats still only 1/16th .. thats like what ? 6/7% and thats not including the sc1 pro gamers that "haven't switched over" i think flash and the dong would still completly hurpdurp this game to new levels

I don't mean to talk theoretically but don't just forget about sc1 players Remember how fast MVP dominated and how long MC has been the best protoss .. practicaly from the moment he played the game..

I don't doubt the forigner scene is so much more powerful but realistically we haven't even seen the cream of the crop in sc2 yet.




SC1 and SC2 are different games and SC2 has had even mroe exposure. There are more people praccing harder in europe and america now than in SC1 days.

Cant wait for Jeadong and FlasH to come over, id be pleasently surprised if they reached the top within a year of playing it.

It is in the GSL's best interests to get more top level foreigners in there.
It is certainly in our best interests to get more top level foreigners out there.
I like where this is going.

Different game. Larger player pool.

SC1 was set in its way, execution and speed were pretty much 'the' key. SC2 requires different things currently.

his style isnt very compatible with the current metagame we've seen on code s

That can go both ways - nothing says a foreigner can't come in and upset the metagame because of their own style.

SjoW is bound to do well in korea, his TvT is extremely solid and his other matchups are starting to catch up. Despite his 'lack of scouting' (note that he scv scouts on certain maps in certain matchups, and always hellion/rine scouts at specific timings) I have never seen him lose to an unproportional amount of cheese, he tends to have very good simcity and timings to deal with cheese.
