Last week when the interviewer asked Cool about OMG's scrim record against Korean teams he dodged the question saying something along the lines of "oh it's hard to tell things from scrims because people are all going to be hinding things, etc.". If it were close to 50/50 he would have no qualms saying its about 50/50, which implies that either their record is very good (and he's being modest) or it's very bad (and he's ashamed to say it).

I'm actually pretty doubtful of China's chances against Korea.

Given that all Chinese/Korean scrims happen on the Korean server with ping advantage, it makes it hard for me to believe that OMG's scrim record could be that good against the likes of T1 or Ozone, leading me to believe that their record against Korean teams has taken a turn for the worse. And if OMG doesn't have a chance vs. the best Korean teams, neither will the other Chinese teams.
