yeah he's peruvian but its easy for people to group him as "mexican" just as americans and europeans are apparently collectively called "white dudes" :p

Moon admitted himself that it was not possible to hear the crowds:

Did capt. Obvious help you with that title? lol. They do, they have been, and they will

I'm really surprised that Squirtle didn't take on Moon thought. I know his PvZ is crappy, but Moon is not even close to being Squirtle's caliber, with all due respect to WC3.

lmfao

I support this thread 100%. Gotta be able to see the humor in shit.

I sort of made a picture themed on this for the funny pictures thread, it was more about how Idra can't run from Koreans anywhere. Same idea though.

These brothas can come play me and my boys at basketball anytime they want. lol

Well the op was quoting Moon when he made the title. Are you calling Moon captain obvious? I don't know why you would say 'Moon is not even close to being Squirtle's caliber' when Moon beat Squirtle in the semis.

Frankly, this tournament showed how overrated Squirtle is. Ace is the protoss on Startale everybody should have been hyping up. Ace didn't lose a single game to a foreigner, was undefeated until the finals and finished with an overall record of 16-2. Squirtle barely made it out of group stage, lost 11 games to foreigners (6 from foreigners who never played in Korea) and finished with an overall record of 18-16 which is barely over .500.

I'm not white either, but I got to agree that Korea is dominating in SC2 and BW at the moment still.

Who's going to stop them? IdrA? Huk? Jinro?

And you judge Moon's caliber based on what? I love it when people pull out random statements about other people's abilities from their ass without any basis.

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.



Actually it was the Dutch and the Americans who did well at the 2002 Speed skating 1000 meter final.
The Dutch taking both Gold and Silver, the US took Bronze.

Unless you are referring to Short Track, but I do not follow that sport.
Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not. 파이팅! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ"

You can't argue with the stats. 40-10 is a powerful statement.

Recent tournament results corroborate this: Korean Code A players getting Top 3 at the IEM Championships, getting Top 3 at FXOpen Shatter the Sky, as well as FXOpen Invititational (if you count Select as Korean)...

I guess TSL will be another point in the data. Here's hoping it's closer to Dreamhack than IEM WC.

NA/EU fighting!

wow, epic title LOL.
can't wait for TSL considering how well the Koreans did at IEM.


I'm still a bit sad we're gonna have lag problems for pretty much any match .
Offline tourney would be so much cooler but not really possible with the korean schedule I guess.
Still a great tournament but I hope the lag won't decide the winner in some cases
