If he makes it to RO16 in Code S, that will mean he's RO16 material. If he makes it in RO8, he will be RO8 material, etc. So the whole "material" thing is silly anyway. He already proved people who claim he doesn't belong in Code S wrong twice by being Code S two seasons in a row. | ||

Live location, in a booth, on a stage in front of a live audience >>>>> online tournaments. EU live events such as IEM, Dreamhack, Copenhagen has been won by a Korean anyway. And if a player is in 2 tournaments where one of them has much more local prestige and much more prize money, I doubt they are going to expose any of their new builds. We have seen so much more specially-made builds in the GSL from the Koreans but not really anywhere else. I guess we'll never know until half the players in Korea playing in the GSL are foreign... that will never happen. | ||

I hope he'll do fine in the future code S. I knew MMA was overrated (in his TvT against MKP, not the match against HuK), dunno why everybody thought he'll roll over MKP... Too bad I wasn't able to look the games T_T, damn patch. | ||

He beat MVP using MKP style.. but considering he was fighting MarineKing himself, yeah. | ||

Seriously, if you don't trust your own eyes and brain (I have a hard time believing anyone who regularly watches, say, MVP's games, would say that he even played close to 50% of what he was capable of against Adelscott, no matter how bad he was against P at the time), at least trust the words of other pros like idrA: people need to stop taking cross-server online results seriously as far as a measurement of players' skill levels. Like a previous poster said, the only major result that has been legit was Thorzain vs. MC. It's not a knock on these online tournaments - just shitty Blizzard server technology. I mean, it's either all of that, or it's foreigners, who don't practice as much, who don't live in a teamhouse environment, who don't live, breathe, and swim in an RTS culture all day, can be just as good if not better than these other players (Koreans in this case). If that truly is the case, I think it might be more of an indictment on the poor quality of SC2 as an esport than anything else - a sport that rewards random variability over hard work. I don't think any of us wants that to be the case. | ||
