I had Losira second. Editor disagreed. :p

Its disputable. Losira has more results than DRG but everyone's hyping DRG as being clutch and a really good player. And he is... though he hasn't appeared in the individual leagues just yet. He can sort of be in the same case as MMA, someone who's godly good but recently dropped out of Code A. For all we know, DRG will never succeed in the individual leagues and be something like a Sea 2.0, someone who does only well in team leagues.

Either way, second and third place doesn't really matter all that much. They're both good and are hyped as eventual contenders for a championship.

DRG is a great player, but having good results in all leagues is what seperates the best players from the good. Drg hasn't accomplished this while Losira has, showing solid results in the team league and individual.

Are you suggesting that Koreans eat dogs?????


Yes, they do. For most, this is fairly common knowledge, but some still haven't heard of it. I know a few Koreans, and when I brought it up to them, they denied it at first. I guess they are taught not to tell us, as we find it disgusting, or something. I don't really care, anyways. I'm a cat person (though, those dogs are quite cute ).

I'm fairly certain that an IM player will win this finals. If either Nestea or Losira is defeated in the semis, they will be able to review the matches and create strategies to win against the person who defeated one of them. If they both lose... well, I'm pretty sure hell will have frozen over first.

If byun/hongun win...I'll have to stop playing sc2

HongUn I can understand...but Byun is actually really good. His TvT is great, he won Code A (which is arguably just as hard or harder than Code S), his TvZ has a better winrate than his TvT, and he beat some of the best at TvT. Hope Losira wins but I don't think it's that much of an upset if Byun does.

DRG crushed SCfou the last time they met @ the 3D finals. And Nestea credited SC with being one of the best TvZ of all time. Losira, on the other hand, is this guy:

[image loading]

who is himself, playing pretty well right now. However, DRG has again and again stepped up for his team and crushed opponents left and right to make it to the previous GSTL finals. Losira rode Nestea's wave, has not beaten any exciting players of note, performs soso in GSTL.

If you're talking based on personal achievements alone, Losira has the upperhand by a little.
If you're talking about gameplay, DRG's gameplay outclasses Losira's. This MLG will probably show us how good DRG is. I think he's a big favourite to win it.

zvz... i sure hope it doesn't come down to that. i mean i like losira's play, but master vs. apprentice? it's not like nestea is flagging. if we put MMA and losira on the same level, then i can't really see losira beating nestea. there's actually no one that understands the race and the game better than nestea atm.

Byun, though, he's given us some fantastic late-game TvZs. I don't know if he can beat Nestea, but Byun's gameplay is a thinking man's play. And he doesn't crack under pressure, like Bomber.

Lulz Fionn, you're right! DRG is impressive, but suffers from the inconsistency bug. Kinda like Bomber: Brilliance in flashes (pardon the pun) but extreme mediocrity in others - It was almost like his "limitless" pill ran out when he played Byun.

lol first of all DRG didnt crush scfou, he beat him 3:2, and personal achievements alone, Losira crushes DRG. code a champion, mlg runner up, code s semifinalist as of now? Losira only lost twice in the gstl so far while performing an all kill and also taking out code a finalist puzzle recently. The only matchup that DRG has proven to be better than losira is his zvt. On the other hand, losira has above a 70% winning rate in zvp and zvz after playing many games. lol drg played 1 official zvz and 8 official pvz's in korea. DRG hasn't even made it through the preliminaries into code a yet.

Sooo.... your judgement of what can be killed for meat and what can't be is based on... cuteness...

lol jk i know what you mean, I don't support eating dog meat, but at the same time, doesn't it make you wonder why we are so in favor of slaughtering chickens, turkeys, pigs and cows, yet ABHOR eating dogs? Pigs are equally as loyal and are smarter. Is it really because dogs are cuter? Hmm.


Anyway, back to the topic... who's going to play with the puppy in the Zenex house??? They'll all be too busy gaming =( it will probably distract them haha
