They did deserve to be where they are. yea, its so hard to keep track of all these foreigners when we don't get to see them play in team leagues or something. of these 4, i only really knew of Naniwa before the TSL. | ||

But the successful sc2 players that came from wc3 play starcraft. They're sc2 players; not wc3 players. I can't imagine anyone thinking the talent pool of bw was somehow greater than that of wc3 in terms of gaming skill so the whole discussion is pretty pointless. | ||

The only reason the whole WC3 stuff is ever brought up now is because a lot of WC3 fans were butthurt that Brood War players were considered superior (which is true) before SC2 came out, and now see the current balance of power in SC2 in the foreign scene as a good excuse to say "look at how wrong you were lol", even though that argument makes no sense at all. | ||

Just because you choose not to follow the european or non korean scene doesnt mean it is not there. what? i dont see any of the 4 teams represented by the 4 players remaining in the TSL on that site. that only helps prove my point. | ||

For being a 3-0 series boxer v.s. hasu was crazy close and extremely entertaining. I wish more success for the emperor in the future, what a bad ass. HasuObs vindicates me in my defense of the templar nerf. High templar are awesome even against super sharp ghost micro. Great casting, great games, TSL FTW! | ||

If they are good enough to beat gsl champions it makes sense to that they would easily make code s. -.- Not every1 wants to move to korea? And besides there are enough tournaments for them to play in and also weekly online tournaments, while in korea it's just gsl... Also i kinda find it funny that people outside of europe keep underestimating european players... i didn't expect boxer to have a chance vs a trained hasu at all for example. And i also predicted thorzain to beat mc, seeing how he lost to lesser terran players in gsl. | ||

I don't think anyone hates him for knocking out IdrA, it's his retarded playstyle and the fact that he actually think he has any skill in this game. I'm also glad Cruncher is out, mainly because of his playstyle but also because Naniwa is swed  But saying Cruncher have no skill at what he does is very wrong.. | ||

I there a forum where we don't call players names, whine about balance, and actually analyze games and live report? Posts like yours is just disgusting and adds nothing. Maybe you should have like 100 posts w/o ban before being allowed to participate in LR threads since 99% of junk are from low counts. | ||
