Sadly after all this time with so many tournament threads it still is not clear to many users on this site. There are several types of posts that are not acceptable in tournament threads. Any form of: Imbalance whine/Player bashing/Caster bashing/Stream complaining Will result in two day to a week long bans even for first offenses. Please stick to the games at hand and enjoy yourselves with a beautiful event such as this and the free service that comes with it. | ||

Lol, what are you talking about? I'm refering to the amount of NA players competing which is about <5 whilst they're probably >30 EU players. So obvious NA is worst out of them all when there's like 6 times less players competing. Or w/e the stats are. | ||

Had nothing to do with nationality, just that if one group of people work together and devote their life into improving their game, they will exceed others. If all the support from team houses combined with the many hours of targetted training doesn't give them an edge, this game would be somewhat unfair. | ||

I was just pointing out how korea and sen are not under 1 category. Sen is in his own category (or mixed into the foreigner tab). Korea is a category by itself, not asia. | ||

He performs well in LANs, I'm pretty sure that's because of his extensive tournament experience and success, but his SC2 skill isn't too high, that's been shown multiple times on GSL. I think Moon just seems weak because code A / code A qualifiers are probably harder than most (if not all foreigner events). ~16 spots for qualifiers, and people like ganzi, drg, all of fxo couldn't even make it. | ||

IdrA was in Sweden for a day ro two and knew he was going, MC had a couple hours notice, boarded a plane at 7AM, and played that day. IdrA says he was sick, not sure if that means jetlag or not though. | ||

That's not what he said at all... he was simply pointing out what other people said, not what he personally said. Either way, he is an IdrA hater, not necessarily an MC fan. | ||

Even with their own sports, they've been falling behind as well. World football, we're horrible we have holden and howard who are EPL players but the rest are meh. American football, in international tournaments i think spain and japan beat us. Basketball we are still fairly competitive but that is one of the least skill based sports out there, just be really tall. Baseball we are bad now and korea and japan are both solid. Hockey canada won. So yea americans better learn to lose gracefully quick because it likely won't get any better since the reason we were so far ahead in the first place was almost purely due to an economical advantage where other countries were busy trying to feed themselves and live decently rather than chasing sporting opportunities. Tables have turned there as well. | ||

If I want to watch EU only players battle it out I'll watch some of the bigger online cups/smaller lans since they are usually so well attended =) For big events though the level of play is just substantially raised by having a decent Korean presence. | ||

I think the point is that when MC was no longer jetlagged, he 4-0 Idra. And today Idra shouldn't have the jetlag excuse, and he still lost. I heard he was sick, which may be a factor. Either way, it wouldn't be fanboy logic to point out that MC has a better record against Idra. | ||

Europe is way better than NA, Europe even dominates MLG and NASL for the most part and they are NA tournaments. | ||
