Haha that title..
still would have been more awersome if there was a battle report for game 3 of Moon vs Squirtle as mentioned ..

Still thank you as always :D

Korean training really seems to prevail.. kind of sad

The title/quote is a throwback to an article Carmac wrote a few years ago: http://www.sk-gaming.com/content/17621-Koreans_own_White_Dudes

For the few who might be confused; Carmac is the dude holding the mic.

Actually Koreans do own white dudes and Moon was 100% right, because these aren't even the top koreans, these are the koreans that were eliminated from code A. I laughed when I saw that IEM didn't think to invite players like MVP, NesTea, or MC.

Edit: However, Koreans do have a better "scheduled" practice agenda. But this was the IEM world finals, if the players didn't practice with their normal practice partners and didn't practice as hard as they possibly could then they not only make IEM look bad by not practicing for their "world finals" but also the non korean scene. If they don't practice as much as a korean sc player for a World finals tournament, then they deserve to get embarrassed.

That is a.... morose title..

Moon is a classy guy at least, I still wish he was the victor to get a shot in Code S. If LyN can do it, so can Moon.

I think Moon should have won the IEM if the crowd didn't cheer for the nydus attack.

PS : I hope my english is understandable.

For some reason this remind me of the 2002 Speed skating 1000 meter final at the Olympics, except the Australian and the American beat the Koreans. I was trying to find a picture but I failed -.-

Also in the Game 2 Moon v Ace report you say Squirtle fast expanded.

Guess you didn't read. Korean training owns "white dudes". Where do Jinro and HuK live right now?

You're missing the point. The fact of the matter is, Korean training dominates foreigner training. Not all foreigners who trained in Korea have been successful (ex. Haypro), meaning individual talent still does play a role. However, the korean regime overall is much stronger than how foreigners train. As far as I'm concerned, because he trains/lives with a Korean pro team, Jinro is korean, not a foreigner.
