Nestea rule involves a functioning brain with plenty of results and data to back him. That can't be allowed in these threads. | ||

IdrAs GSL results: Top 32 Top 16 Top 8 Leaves Korea My GSL results: Top 4 Top 4 Top 16 Top 32 Code A Code A Code B I dunno how the hell you can say IdrAs results in GSL are anywhere close to mine, especially when I beat him in GSL 4-1 --; IdrAs is most definitely better than me now but his GSL results are not, no fucking way. I dont think Im good right now but my GSL results were fucking good. No need to argue. But your friend HuK is hot on your tail! I have faith in you! | ||

Foreigners need to stop looking for excuses and practice like koreans if they want to win $$ anymore. That's silly and true at the same time. I agree with they need to practice more, but you can't help but look at that and say that the maps are blatantly imbalanced. It definitely had a factor in how Nani did, and he could have done better on another map, and possibly won a game or the series. | ||

It's all about dedication. there is no reason to believe that Japanese, Chinese, Americans, Or Europeans are inferior to Koreans in SC2 on pure ability. I mean look who made South korea to the country it is today. USA man. ?? what's up with your punctuation I don't think you get his point/humor; pointing out that naniwa living in Korea will now make him Korean and not a foreigner anymore  | ||

Making it into GSL once is not doing well. Idra, Jinro, and Huk all made it into the top 8 at least once. Jinro had a shot at winning one. | ||

I really wish thorzain and naniwa had arrived a week ago in Korea. So they could prepare and get rid.of jetlag. Shame to see them lose. Also surprised sase lost 2-0 after his great run at cpl China. Not surprised Jinro lost, don't think he can come back to code a either( except through mlg ) | ||

Won't be a great promotion for GSL at BlizzCon if the upcoming Season has no foreigners left. That was expected even at this time last year. For company long term objective, Gom shouldn't focus too much on foreigners as they did, they should really develop their Korean fan base. As a local sports, 90% of players are Koreans, but foreigner fanbase is even larger than local fanbase, not much Koreans actually watch GSL, that is not a good sign for Gom. | ||

Ok, wilt chamberlain and oscar robertson were terrible because they played in shitty eras compared to now. Your argument is meaningless because you can't compare time periods. It's like bitching about easy or hard brackets, you play who you play and deal with it. | ||

Dude, you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. The players involved in the first season was so bad... IdrA was practicing since beta, of course he would qualify. | ||

On August 10 2011 16:35 Archerylady wrote: best foreigners worse than code a scrubs.  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. And who's fault is that? The Koreans train for 10 hours a day by playing customs with each other. Most foreigners do some laddering for an hour or two. There's nothing necessarily wrong with laddering to practice every once in a while, but just like with any other sport, you need other people who you know pushing you along. You need coaches and you need someone to make you practice for hours on end until you get it right. The Koreans have that; foreigners don't... yet. | ||
