Korean superstars takes the big lans, unknown korean takes the weekly cups. Koreans are taking everything! Hide your women! lol, didn't you see the "how to pick up girls with starcraft lingo" thing? white girls v asian guys are imba ): | ||

It has been, but people do kind of overlook quite how deep the top levels of the Korean scene appear to be with all the talk of how western player x would do great in Code A/S etc. Damn, Hwangsin did all that playing KR -> NA and from like 2am to 8am lol, that's pretty badass. --- Need more props for Major btw even if he did lose the finals in one sided fashion, backing up his fantastic run at MLG and definitely making a case lately for being one of the very best Terrans in NA | ||

Off course this guy is very good but if he just rolls over some of the better NA players like it's nothing, something is wrong. | ||

Not to knock Hwangsin's accomplishment, but the participation wasn't exactly top notch except for like top 8. There are several big invitationals this weekend so it's understandable that many players who think they have a shot at winning something bigger chose to skip this | ||

Sigh...Hope the non-koreans do better next time. | ||

They have double the players in the house with Code A and Code S players, they have a coach, they have a cleaner who clean and cooks for them and they have the korean ladder. They also have something that really pushes them to practice more and be better - GSL S-class. Have in mind that they play 10+ hours a day with all this included. We got nothing on them soon. | ||
