His english is really improving. I like that he is making the effort to do it on his own, just like how Jinro learned Korean. I guess Huk said he is trying to learn Korean too, but he's not very good at it or something

It's an incredibly difficult language for native English speakers. It's SO different.


Wouldn't it be just as hard for Swedish people?

Busting out the racism, very nice!


or could mean the inner city americans use a lot of slang/lingo to the point it's too hard to understand


You win. Thanks!

ive seen alot of "pro gamers" in eu/na practice a few hour and not so many games

koreans 11hour ofc you know they will win but it sure gets boring playing that many hours


sure it gets boring but thats how you become a better player.. SC is all in the muscle memory, to develop your macro to be so flawless that its just a natural feel. Try changing something like your hotkeys for a day and see how insanely hard it is because your conditioned to play a specific way already; then times that conditioning/automation x 10 hours a day, thats what the korean schedule does to you, it makes you a machine.

What a great series. In addition to the sadness of not having a loser's bracket, it appears Sen won't even play July tomorrow in a consolation match. Gahhh NASL

Overall though. Imagine Nestea or DRG playing that style. MC, best Toss in the world was sweating it trying to beat Sen, DRG or NesTea would have rolled him. Maybe MC is right, bane drop imba :D

I would love it if sen researched Neural Parasite.


I'm frightened of the day that zerg realize that taking over all of the colossus means their zerglings absolutely roll over the stalker ball. It seems so simple; if you have 8 infestors, use 4 of them to remove the colossi.


How long do you think it'd take MC to target fire the NPing infestors with his stalkers?

You say it like once you take them over you have them for the NP duration.



Sure, but it's generally a bad idea to blink into the banelings that always accompany the army. Even if it doesn't last long, you have time to get your army on top of the stalkers.

I can see that. But Losira, DRG and Nestea are all better than sen.


Clearly the best foreigner? Maybe the best foreign Zerg, but Huk has clearly established himself as the top foreigner at the moment.

No, huk isn't the best foreigner at all. I'd take dimaga/throzain/sen/naniwa/idra before huk because they've been much more consistent.

let it be written!

Just stop it with the bonjwa crap. He is not a bonjwa yet.

We really can't even consider a bonjwa until after LotV is out. The game's still shifting too much for someone to claim that title.

Wow when did NASL get so good all of a sudden? Yesterday was a car crash today its a Ferrari!


It's just by comparison, it looks great only because of how shitty yesterday was. Not saying they haven't improved but still the worse organized tournament I've ever witness in sc2.

Another korean vs korean finals as expected..


Yeah well most of these foreigners play like 2 hours a day, and the koreans play 12 hours a day. What do you expect?

Yeah, of course, foreigners only play 2 hours a day, maybe 3 hours a day max. It's because they all have a job to earn money because noone can earn money playing SC2 outside of South Korea. Such a thing as salaried pro-gamers does not exist except for the Koreans.

And also today is a great day for e-sports, because thanks to the NASL, it has FINALLY become big outside of Asia and now everything is going to improve because there's finally a professionally hosted tournament not organized by people from Seoul.

*Is learning* you cannot learn Korean in a matter of months, even in Korea especially with his practice for SC. But it is probably coming along very fast. I am impressed with MC being able to learn it so well despite being in Korea with only 2 English speakers. English is also very very hard for Easterners to learn.


English comes more readily for easterners since so many schools now have it as part of their core curriculum, hence most know at least a few basic phrases and have a much better base for learning.

Does anybody DEFINITIVELY know if the NASL is making money?


50,000 stream viewers, ads after open stream and after games, sponsors, premium tickets and much more... I think so


They probably lost money on this season, but made operating income. A ton of investment probably went into fixed costs, from the sound boards(the sound problem yesterday was apparently because a cable was defective) to the other equipment.
