And looking at zephyrs bracket they should breeze through to the round of 4 where double elim starts and any team can take first I don't have an issue with Korea's individual play but everything else. From drafts, skill builds, item choices and how the Korean scene places values on certain heroes seem so far below the level we're used to see from every other region. Hopefully Season 3 will be a step up. | ||

I did see him play a few games for ixdl kel but thats about it. I think that your best bet would be to buy a ticket for the korean elite league. We were thinking about forming an nsl season 2 team but we missed the signup deadline... also s4l had mentioned he was going to serve his military duty. He is not really that friendly towards me I guess he doesnt like me...  | ||

If there is a player who is better than you instead of trying to improve your game the korean approach would be to trashtalk them to as many people as you can in the scene and give them a bad reputation as the community is quite small and most of the players know eachother. That is a very very damning assessment of korean scene currently. Considering its so new, how could bad blood build up so quickly -_-. Any news on wats coming after NSL3? Many teams would benefit from more playing time in regular tournaments other than NSL. Exposure is currently too little for teams in korea with just NSL. Anyway, wish both ur team and zephyr success in ur next match. | ||

but yeah, the korean community at least prior to pro dota was just older (age is a huge factor) and more experienced players getting their dicks sucked by younger players. regardless of whether the younger players are better or not, the old players would be the ones who decide everything such as who gets to play in scrims, who captains etc. | ||

you cant live in korea without thick skin, but the korean culture has proved itself repeatedly that it works. Well you could say the Swedish culture has proved itself repeatedly that it works and yet we're lazy as shit. | ||

I still remember the first pro korean game I watched one of the kids rushed sheepstick on NP or something, a lot of crazy ass builds and bad decisions on team fights overall I'm not a hater, but in my experience, koreans have excelled in single player games that reward grinding (repetition-wise) for perfection and microing (high as hell apm). I don't know about LoL tho, I'm yet to see how they fare in a game as elusive as dota. But I doubt they'll make it big. | ||
