And so Nani is our best foreigner?


It's HuK. He is all alone "up there"


might need idra to come back :D


Nani is way better than IdrA, so IdrA wouldn't be able to win anything in Korea now.


Idra is the only foreigner with results in the GSL. Jinro has come closest with a Ro4 showing in the GSL, but idra had consistency

crazy foo


Idra never got passed the round of 16 cept once,and jinro had 2 top 4s.

But Thorzain got Crossfire and close positions Melalopolis.

I'm glad Naniwa and Sase have the passion to get better. They said they expected to lose but they're staying in Korea until they get good or die. That's an awesome mindset.

If you look at my comment after Thorzain lost on metal it should read something like: "Close air metal is so fucking hard".

Everyone had awful maps vs Zerg, meh. Dont think I lost either game because of maps however, the gold burrow baneling can happen anywhere.


Did you leave GOM right after your games? Or do they have computers you can use there?

LOL What?
It's like years ago when Idra has his results and Jinro was in the ro4 twice! And in the beginning the GSL was way worse than now. Remember Artosis being in it?

Hard for protoss to move around on that last map for Naniwa. The Zerg was very aware fo that and used it his benefit by going mass mutas, something a Zerg would normally not do against a stargate opening.

Sure the swedes will be better players after a month of training, but so will all the thousands of korean players be as well. Hence, the rate of improvements during training must be higher than the rate the korean players improve.

Hard work!

More excuses plz.


Still those weren't good Maps. No Foreigner had good Maps actually just about every Non-Zerg had aweful Maps. I think the GSL Mappool just has alot of Zerg Maps right now .


Uhhh...wtf? Thorzain had Crossfire and close positions Metalopolis. Excuses are lame.

Yea crossfire... the map where zerg leads 21-12 versus Terran.

Not the results I was hoping for today. A sad day for foreign progamers, and a dark day for Protoss: MC eliminated yesterday, and only 2 Protoss left in Code A (I think Tassadar and JYP are the only ones left). I hope Alicia makes it through his group.


There will definitely be a patch coming soon from blizzard. Protoss will be strong once again.

A bad day indeed for the foreigners. And I think what was worse is that the players they lost to are not "top tier" koreans. This shows the incredible chasm between koreans and the foreigners.

But I for one think that this is a good thing. This shows the skill divide that arises from having a superior infrastructure. This also shows that the skill ceiling of SC2 is high because I can see daylight between the best and the 2nd tier.

Koreans never disappoint :3.


Am I the only one who isn't surprised in the slightest?
Don't act like this was something nobody could've expected.


I expected at least one upset, but had no confidence as far as which one(s), so I just did the smart move and voted for all Koreans.

Also, how long has Jinro had his Frozen Arbiter icon? That's awesome.

wow @ you. Close by air on metal, so you know good for Mutas. Not by ground. Crossfire is Zerg favored...by far. So I don't know what you are saying.

Can we lay the 'Crossfire is hard for Zerg' myth to rest soon? Just check TLPD stats, zerg have a notably higher win percentage than Terran/Protoss in both matchups, and that's even with ZvT being somewhat Terran favored overall.

Pretty sure jinro had as much consistency, idra just left sooner and seeing as how idra is still having trouble in foreigner events I doubt he could hold his own in code S anymore, let alone code A. Level of competition today is a lot different than it was months ago.

lol what, he's performed better than almost any foreigner in MLGs than anyone and the only players that were close to him were huk and naniwa. Doesnt make sense.

Koreans can't get the Code A spots. So yes, foreigners will still get the invites.

I said "accept," not "get." Big difference.

the foreign scene will be dead in a year at this rate. it's impossible for the foreigners to get as good as the koreans, and how can the scene survive with koreans taking top 3 at every foreign event and stealing the money? lol.


At this point Koreans are just earning foreign money, and foreigners who win tournaments without Koreans in it are the ones stealing money.
