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.

Yes, one Bo5 doesn't make you the best XYZ

It's not just one Bo5. It's July, Socke, Bomber, Moon...


One tournament doesn't establish a 'best player'. People need to stop jumping so quickly to huge conclusions; the best player changes from week to week. If Huk wins he's the best player who attended Dreamhack at that time; nothing more, nothing less.

Ahhhhh

lol I'm extremely new to SC2 I've only been into it for like 3 weeks so I only get some things like top 3 control and dont worry thats halo.

The world championship is free to watch on GOM (they even have uploaded VODs with tastosis or Korean commentary, your choice).
I really encourage you to watch it

Indeed the showmatch was really fun and kinda epic. After the normal tournament, it's just an usual GSL basically :D

At the moment I'd agree, but things can change quickly.


Yes, it will be the greatest victory for a "foreigner" in SC2.

One match does not a best player establish.

Anyone disagree?

[Note: I am not saying Huk is not the best foreigner. I am saying that I do not think that whether he is the best foreigner depends on whether he wins a single match against either Bomber or Moon.]

well then no one can consider thorzain or naniwa.... and huk has won a mlg and is a current code s player. wins arent everything, its the whole body of work. winning dreamhack would be the biggest foreign win in a tournament with koreans.

He wasn't born in Korea nor have korean citizenship, there is no discussion, just plain trolling and internet ignorance.


i wasn't born in the country that both my parents were born in nor do i have citizenship of that country. am i not the same nationality as them?
i definitely wasn't raised like an American and English was not my first language. and on legal documents i don't check the box for Native American.

If Moon wins then I feel HuK is the favourite. But Bomber is gonna be tough. GL HuK!


didnt you see MC said "korea fighting" after his GG?

This topic is so stupid to read.

Suddendly people think the nation where you play has to determine your nationality. It isn't like this in ANY sport, so please stfu. If people move to a nation with better infrastructures for training they don't change nationality. Messi and Ronaldo isn't spanish , they play in spanish teams. Same goes for Huk, he isn't Korean for the mother of god, he play in a korean team.

I couldn't care less about who win but the fanboysm in this thread is making me puke.


Yeah and it isn't about nationality but practice environment / scene.

People like iNcontroL and IdrA have been spouting nonsense like "Korea isn't the place to be"

Bullshit.

Yeah if you wanna feast on the scraps and be a B-class player, stay in the US or wherever, but if you wanna take the big tournies and be the best player you can be there is absolutely no alternative to going to Korea.


Couldn't have put it better my friend. If us non-koreans ever establish anything close to the training/tournament system they have set-up. I might start taking iNcontrols, IdrA, demuslim etc comments seriously.


This is just silly, InControl and the whole EG team have said that they really want to ramp up their practice schedule and will be creating their own team house to achieve a Korean-like regiment for the next MLG. Clearly they think that style of practicing has value. HOWEVER, what InControl and Idra were actually saying is that the TOURNAMENT scene of Korea isn't worth it because of the lack of tournaments and time commitment per payoff. The west has tons of cash up and way better opportunity for the team to do well and attract attention to them and their sponsors. Try to not misquote people when you have your axe to grind.



Well, that's actually bullshit as well.

If you look at the Korean vs Foreigner winnings statistics, Koreans have won far far more.

And also it isn't just about playing the game and winning as much as possible as soon as possible.

None of the US players are at the peak of their skill, they should go to Korea and get good. Once they feel that a skill plateau is incoming they can go to the West to take down the lesser tournies (which also pay out way less)


Because it's that easy. Goodbye family and friends, whole lifestyle, bills, commitments/dependents, culture, girlfriend if i have one, country i love... etc etc... I'm just gonna drop everything and move over to a country where i don't speak a word of the spoken language and try and compete for 1 tournament. It will for a long time probably cost me more money than i make but what the hell, there's a chance i might be better for it so it's worth the risk.

Hah this reminds of the nerds Tastless talks about. 'Can I have everything I want?' NO GODDAMMIT!

I spent a few posts trying to explain HuK's oGs training, his obvious copies of MC builds, his GSL experience... etc.. but I'm quite done with that (I'm hitting myself for expecting more from an LR thread). HuK is foreigner. Bomber will eat him with a side of kimchi. Koreans > Foreigners forever. End of discussion.

The only way to establish whether or not HuK is foreigner is to ask him if he wants to know what love is.

Even then, training with Idra, Machine, Axslav, Incontrol and Strife Cro is not at all comparable to a house containing MC, Nada, Supernova, Inca, TOP, Zenio, Hyperdub, Ensnare, Cezanne, Huk and Jinro all being coached by theWind to ensure their practice is effective and copious.


That wasn't my point, my point was that this person was saying that Idra and Incontrol thought Korean style practice was bad or wouldn't help, when in fact they were making comments on the tournament scene in Korea. They are trying to emulate the Korean training system as best they can, which means they think it works. I just hate people who misconstrue what is being said by people and instead insert their own beef.
