This is really bad for increasing the popularity for starcraft 2 in korea
the games are really really boring and bad....

and there are tons of starcraft: bw fans here atm and this was THE chance to show them

They need to have a game between Nestea and MC or Nestea and Bomber right NOW!
on STAGE!!!!!!


Uh, if you never played or watched SC2 (like the BW players you speak of,) then you wouldn't know how high level play can get. And BW players aren't braindead. They know Yellow hasn't played this much. I highly doubt they were expecting Jaedong vs Flash in SC2.


I'm saying that there are a lot of ppl / gamers in korea who are not interested in SC2
SC2 is pretty damn unpopular in Korea compared to BW
and this was the chance to get more players to convert to SC2 and BW

and yes even though they didn't expect a super high level game,
if they see a boring game they will simply continue to think that SC2 is an inferior game
compared to BW


You're missing the point. The only reason this is boring is because we (as regular SC2 viewers) are used to very high level play and know the intricacies of SC2. The bad play from Yellow is from not knowing what the units do or what upgrades exist, etc. His actual mechanics are fine.


You are missing the point.
Hardcore BW fans and BW players are used to super high level play from Pro BW players (such as flash, jaedong, and many more) and this game probably won't satisfy them...
(I'm actually reading posts on Korean BW / SC2 forum and all I see is ppl talking trash on SC2 lol after watching this show match)


Man it's like that on these forums too. BW fans shit on SC2 regardless. You are naive if you think that good SC2 games would somehow turn all the BW to SC2. It wont and the vocal whiners will never change.

I hope people realise zerg is tough to learn at the start when you don't know what to do as zerg and how to react to opponent's builds. It's not like toss and terran where you can perform at a certain level if you have good mechanics.


Yeah like Yellow never played Zerg in BW :>

You are sadly assuming that koreans a bunch of dumbasses, each and every one of them. They know its is just a showmatch, its suppose to be fun. It is why they have friendly banter, it is why there is so much chatting and laughing.

Those BW fans may have bias towards their own game but they also are not stupid enough to judge a entire game based on a simple showmatch between old rivals, one player who probably does not even own a copy of the game.



Doesn't matter a lot of casual gamers / bw players (who don't follow sc2 at all)
want to see a good game even though they were expecting a bad game (because it is a show match between a pro vs a gold level player)

Doesn't hurt to give them a impressive game to show that SC2 is indeed a very fun game

I'm not saying they will be judging the whole game based on this game
they are already judging SC2 and they are judging it pretty badly lol
so I'm just saying this was a really good chance to show them a really good game of sc2
to hardcore / oldschool BW fans


A 3rd time. BW lovers wont be impressed even IF Yellow practiced a month. The level of those games will not be close to high level BW. Boxer and Yellow are famous and old school, you need people like Puma/MC/Nestea for really high level games to impress BW fans.



YEA THAT'S WHAT I SAID IN THE FIRST POST
Since this showmatch will / have not impressed the hardcore BW fans
THEY should've shown Nada / July (BW players) or Nestea/MC/MVP pro match on Big Stage
where SC2 lovers & BW fans are watching together!!


Nada/Juli and the others can be seen at the GSL all the time. This was specifically a game between two old school BW pros. You want something completely different to what this was.


BW fans / players don't watch GSL and most never even heard about GSL even though they live in Korea... Nada and July were both famous BW players and they are both very good in Sc2 as well so that's why I'm saying it would've appealed to the BW fans

There's no way yellow is gold. I was D+ in BW and I hit diamond instantly.


Gold on Korean server is about the same as diamond on US server.

Bronze on Korean = GM on USA obviously duh.


I think people exaggerate, but there IS merit to it. I didnt believe it either until I played KR server myself.. I feel confident against any US or EU GM (which I match often), but KR low-masters are just as hard, if not harder.

And I've actually (hate to admit it) lost some games vs Platinum players on KR.. They are actually decent enough that you can't fuck around; like the ones I lost were when I tried doing things like droning too much expecting the opponent not to realize it and counter, or trying to do some funky cannon rush or so.. They dont fall for that shit there, even at lower levels, where I can mess around on the US server even at low masters level and still come away with a win.

So yes, KR server is significantly harder.. but if you are high-masters or GM on US, you should at least get low masters in KR (assuming you got there with real skill, not just one cheese build) .. but the difference is even Gold players on KR are "GOOD".. You can't mess around vs them and expect an easy win (unless you are BoxeR, obviously)

Is it just me or does korean just sound, like it is spoke REALLY fast?

Learned this in psych. Any foreign language that you are not familiar with sounds like it is spoken faster because your brain does not break it down to interpret it, it just lets it fly by. The makes the words sound way faster, and when hearing a language you are really familiar with, the words come slower.

what would be cool is if they made this a recurring showmatch, say every 3 months or so.. that way we could see yellow's road to improvement and also maybe help motivate him to get to the top in sc1!
