The Korean commentators are giggling too much. It makes me uncomfortable not knowing if they are just so happy, or they are making jokes regarding the "world" players.

For some reason TT1 dropping his card made me snort my tea through my nose. Ouch.

lol starcraft players are the funniest. and tt1 very well mannered !!

lol Korean commentators loling at John choking it up?

TT1 having a good experience so far. I'm glad he's doing well because he sacrificed a lot to compete in this. Namely his high MLG seed.

Does he have a regional accent? I've no idea about Aussie accents but he sounds a tiny bit more Kiwi than average, to my leaden ears.

It was likely a combination of his hair, his leather jacket, and his posture. Just looking like a total bad boy.

People in the western hemisphere have brains too, and don't need to just blindly copy builds to get by. It'd be really nice to see people actually wanting to make esports a reality outside of korea, but the way a lot of people think is really discouraging and depressing.
Koreans are not invincible! -YET- why do I say YET? its simple, they are pulling ahead, not far ahead, just ahead. Because of events like GSL they can train a lot and have reachable goals that make it worth while for them to commit to the game. No one seems to complain that there isn't enough forgeiners in GSL, However, everyone likes complain and cry to make sure that Koreans are invited to events like TSL or NASL (NORTH AMERICAN STARLEAGUE).
I am not saying koreans should be just excluded from all international events, but the truth is, the only way to make esports successful is to create a competitive enviroment, where I am scared of playing KiWiKaKi not MC. Need our own 'stars' our own prizes and our own incentives on this side of the world. Need to create an enviroment where people aren't looking to move to korea, but instead move to this side of the map, like IdrA did.
There should be events like this one or WCG or many others where there are opportunities for people all over the world to face each other, but we need to create some sort of separation as an incentive to "foreigners" to train and improve in a similar enviroment as they have setup in korea.
You reading this are a 'foreigner'...but why are you the 'foreigner', is your brain less capable of producing quality strategy, are your hands too fat and slow by nature's default?
ffs lets stop being the foreigners.
Catz y u so handsome?! I was always wondering why people make these excuses for the koreans, when TT1 just destroyed his last 2 opponents with nearly flawless play. But not it cannot be, nada lost because TT1 was lucky and blind countered his build with a non robo opener. Wait.... Foreigners are destroying the koreans with superior play in GSL and TSL. But if you NEED to completely destroy the accomplishments of TT1, Adel etc. then blame it on variance please since that makes the most sense. I don't understand this argument comparing the amount of foreigners in the GSL compared to the NASL. The GSL gives anyone the opportunity to participate and everyone has to work their way up now, except ironically when 4 foreigner spots were provided for code A. So, it's understandable when people get upset that certain foreigners are excluded when a lot of them should be invited based on their resume so far in Starcraft 2, especially over some of the players invited to the NASL so far. It's not supposed to degrade non-Korean players, it's just understandable that people would not enjoy this exclusion when the tournament is supposed to include the best players, which is non-Korean AND Korean players. That was more for Catz than you.
Totally agree, I don't see GSL are afraid of foreigners, events like this really show they do want foreigners to participate.
So why be so exclusive? Are you afraid that korean will take your prize? It's obviously shown that that aren't unstoppable, so I don't understand the arugment.

Your post was perfectly understandable. He'll grow out of it, I feel sorry for the guy, he's obviously not comfortable in these situations and has no choice but to partake in them unless he wants to stop playing competitive starcraft. He's not doing it on purpose, don't get angry or annoyed with him, it's obviously something that comes out with his nervousness and inherent shyness.
