GL HF SjoW, i hope you'll make it

Although I do understand it is a joke, SjoW actually managed to get over 160 APM in the finals vs White-ra, a quite good and more than enough value seeing as he does not spam.

Well apm comes naturally, if he gets better his apm will increase.

I do think he probably need to fine tune his mechanics. And to everyone who says he can't make because of the scouting thing, well he stated in interviews that he seriously is considering implementing it.

If he gets good practice partners over there I think he can provide some good results for sure.

SjoW 'The Surgeon'

Hopefully he does well.
Lee Jae Dong proved that a focus on mechanics and execution could solve problems in the StarCraft game strategy.

sjow's awesome and very consistent lately, if he would go there I see him do quite well, hard to say how well exactly but the last few times I watched gsl... I think sjow will be just fine :D

So nice to see more guys going for GSL, good luck to him.
Its no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.

His low-apm (relative to pros), no-scouting, consistent 1-1-1 focused playstyle is distinctive and really fun to see.


this is totally not how he plays atm. he really differs his build althoigh it used to be quite amusing seeing him win with that same build all the time

Bitter much?
What's your problem, he just won the European championship. If there are better euroes, then they have to prove it. That's how they draft.
Atm he obviously has to be considered the best European (who's not already in GSL ofcourse).
Also I wouldn't worry too much about the APM thing. You often see players have 300 apm, but absolutely nothing going on. 160 useful APM is probably the average in pro gamer standards. Most people just like to spam, me included. Makes you focus a little more.
I bet i can maı̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̸̨̨̨̨̨̨ke you wipe your screen.

Dont mess with proud swedish fanboys ( u are sometimes that annoying XD)
Winning a tournament does never make you the best automatically
and im watching every single cup
Sjow is never the best
TLO isnt the best as well just because he won against sjow in 2 Bo3s recently right?
I guess it was pokeridol

After seeing the house via Artosis's youtube post I hope to see some great gamers getting a shot over in korea with SC2. So good luck to SJow at getting one of those spots.

None of the things you mentioned at the end are indicative of a top tier GSL player. I hope he's better than that. lol
