Sadly it seems I have to put this up yet again. Any of the following types of posts will be met with immediate bans:

Imbalance whine/Player bashing/Caster bashing/Stream complaining/Off topic arguing.

Stick to the games and enjoy the event and its free services and coverage.

No offense but that's a pretty stupid comment from Torch. Interacting with the community doesn't make you a worse gamer by any means. Korean dominance has more do to with the (politically incorrect) fact that the average intelligence is higher in Korea and in East Asia in general, and that is also the reason China is pumping out millions of engineers and scientists, and Japan is a leader in hi-tech industries.

And that's a big part of the reason why we see Koreans dominating these competitions.


This man speaks the truth, but I expect waves and waves of hate responses to this. This is Teamliquid after all, a foreign SC2 website.. people can't handle the truth, you know D:


I'd guess Teamliquid would come off deep red in those charts... lmao

So black people are all good at soccer because they have better physical abilities? Go look the winners of the world cup. Not a single african country ever won it. The best player ever was white.

Maybe it has to do with the level of investment you put in such a thing? Like, dunno, that's why europe and south america have always been dominating in soccer even if they're dumber than chinese and slower than africans.



What Pele is white now ... ?

he probably meant messi


Maradona was the best player ever, everyone knows that


When he was allowed to play with his hands, yeah

You made me choke on my drink sir!

this may be just a very bad generalization; but my theory on Asians vs the rest of the world, has something to do with how they grew up, in a much stricter study-first schooling environment. Obviously, when you goto school for longer hours while growing up, coming into a profession where you practice SC for 12 hours a day is a lot more natural than western cultures where most of the kids skip classes, and where 6 hours a day of school is considered too long to most. So going into a 12 hour a day korean schedule is too much (ala Tyler and Ret moving to korea for BW, and having troubles with adapting).

Average intelligence is completely unimportant here. We're dealing not with the average people here. All of the pros are outliers. I'd say it has much more due to their work ethic and the number of people allowed to play professionally (100 pro players will come up with more meta advancements than 10).


Yes, that is an interesting argument. All pros are outliers, just as all college students, all engineers, all scientists, all doctors are outliers in the normal distribution of their country's IQ values.

But remember that a higher average IQ displaces the distribution to the right, which increases the size of the tail, or the potential number of high-IQ individuals. With a bigger pool of high-IQ individuals, more cutting-edge talent is bound to emerge - in SC2 and otherwise.

so thats why asia has the highest iq ;s?

Asia is certainly beating the west at its own game and has been for the past few decades. (If we're talking reasons, primary one is probably education, education in the US for example for the average citizen is fairly sub-par). The US has a pretty deep seed of anti-intellectualism in a lot of its political thought, intelligence isn't really valued here like it is in Asian countries. I don't know enough about europe to say.

as far as I know, IQ is hereditary and has nothing to do with quality of education??
