Obviously he's not a native speaker and you can hear that, but he's fluent in English and its not that you couldn't understand him. I think everyone clearly understands what he says and what he wants to express-_-. Leave him alone, its great that lots of people be it Khaldor or other guys switch over to English to make it more international. Yeah it is actually awesome hearing these guys speak English. Completely understandable having an accent. As per usual, on LR threads, it is just angry nerds being angry nerds complaining about just about anything. | ||

You could say that its korean training domination or you could say that the really good players went to korea to train there. Its not like scrubs go to korea and somehow idra and jinro were born out of that. I think it is a little of both. The Liquid guys were obviously some of the best players from outside Korea. But there are others who would be able to compete in Korea if they went there and their play would improve if they did. Some of them can't go because they have school/work back home, others haven't had the sponsorship opportunity yet. I think the difference will get much smaller once e-sports gets more organized in Europe and the US in the wake of all the new large tournaments. Once we get a couple of pro houses over here, there will be no reason to go to Korea in order to improve. | ||

You don't even know what was said or in what tone/context it was said. Maybe you should chill and wait until if/when you find that out before you start spitting venom? | ||

You have to remember that Morrow went through his group with a 2-3 record, which is below 500. | ||

Until the quality of the EU or NA server ramps up to the level of the KR server, there is still a reason to travel to Korea to live and train as I can't imagine training on 200-400ms latency to Korean server being valuable at all, but to some extent you are right. | ||

Hell...and Jake Shields had actually won! I'll just say it didn't go well. Let people have their time in the spotlight... | ||

For a guy with a long injury break and having switched from R to T back to R again, he posts results which are better than 95% of 'pro-gamers'.... Maybe unsuccessful was a bit harsh. I love him pretty much and want to see him win tournaments more. Of course he is an extremely good player, if he wasn't he wouldn't have so much fame throughout. | ||

IdrAs point is that ZvP is incredibly tough. IdrA lost to a protoss. I'm clearly missing your point. 1 zerg in top 4 doesn't mean that "lol, zerg is fine" | ||

His choice of words is pretty good and although he is missing some words in his dictionary his grammar is nearly flawless. As a native speaker, TLO's english is pretty bloody fantastic. Never, ever had a problem with it at all. | ||

Are you trolling? I actually enjoy rivalry but keep it at a mature and reasonable level. I think it's safe to assume most would agree that what idra did was very childish and uncalled for. EDIT: Maybe I shouldn't jump to conclusions until I know what actually happened, but it felt like whatever idra said morrow seemed to be offended. | ||
