People people, stop making excuses. Koreans are simply better, white dudes need to practice way more. Simple as that.

Yeah, not like he's got a winning record against the only foreigner left in code S or anything. You could make the same argument against huk.

Is this seriously a counter argument? You make two huge logical fallacies. One, you assume I believe Huk will do well. Two, well, lets put it this way, using equal logic, I can say idra has a losing record vs Lotze, who no one even knows because he's basically out of the tournament scene for good. See what I did there?

We're talking about foreigners in the GSL? Thanks for coming out of left field. The point was we're talking about the relative quality of them and not other players.

Logic is not your cup of tea, is it?
When I say Korean, I mean plays on the Korean server. I don't care what you think it is, that's what I mean when I say it.

I don't think anyone ever expected a foreigner GSL champion.
Koreans are just way better.


In late 2010 it looked possible because of Jinro.

All hope is lost now.

doesn't change the fact that right now he's probably worse than nani, thorzain and sase.

...ya even though he finished above naniwa/huk/thorzain at columbus and was 1-2 spots behind them this past MLG. Sure bro. and Sase? He's a good EU player but at this point that's it.

Idra has losing records vs all four of the players who played today... SaSe demolished him at DH, Nani beat him at MLG...

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

Are you seriously retarded?

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.

He qualified for the first seasons though

So did artosis and bitbybit.

Idra had been in every GSL since the first though.


omg seriously who cares what IdrA did. And the first 3 GSL were just absolute terrible.

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.


Yea, but he's making IdrA sound like some fucking Bonjwa for just participating in the GSL. Jinro had straight up better and consistent results( beating Idra head 2 head in GSL) and owning some of the best players at that time, e.g MC. What did IdrA do? Oh yea he participated in the first GSL. Good one.

He didnt have to be seeded into code A and qualified his first time and played well. You can't really ask for much more. For people making the argument he had better results than jinro in the GSL? No, never.


Oh btw, When I was talking about the first 3 GSL being horrible, by no means am I ever ganna take away Fruits or Nesteas GSL Wins. I'm talking about how shit most of the competition were and thats what IdrA went up against lol. And he didn't even accomplish anything during that time.

How can you say he didnt accomplish anything? Are you people really so critical that you think if you dont win GSLs anything you do is meaningless? You wouldnt have a scene if people said fuck it because they couldnt win it all. Again, you can't compare time periods because they're inherently different. You can't compare athletes from 40 years ago to ones now and say "LOL those shitty players in the 19xxs are garbage their accomplishments mean nothing." You might as well kick everyone out of every hall of fame every 10 years to make way for the new era of players. We might as well say what jinro did and what huk is doing dont mean shit unless they win a GSL. It's ignorant to think that.

After what we've seen recently, I really want to see Dimaga, Mana and Stephano, possibly Sen, come to Korea along side Thorzain and Naniwa. I feel like that would be an absolutely killer team. No foreign Terran can really compare right now, which is a shame.

They need both. Most foreigners treat SC2 tournaments as easy money, not a job. The days of easy money (at least for foreigners) are over.

Nani's strongest ZvP strat is cheese, ones that don't work on giant GSL maps.

I am not insulting, it's just plain fact based on his PvZ wins.


Getting crossfire and terminus fucked him pretty hard.

and has beaten huk more often than not and beat jinro the last time they played. Point? Maybe, just maybe you can't just use the transitive property as if it's the word of god?

Well, I'll admit, ZvP looks Z favored right now. What happened to going collosi on two bases? Is that old school standard as bad as everyone must think it is (as no one does it anymore)


1. Zergs discovered baneling drops.

2. Maps like Terminus and Crossfire don't favor it. Terminus is basically three fast bases for the Zerg and a lot of open space in the middle, meaning the Zerg can quickly macro up a huge army and overwhelm your two-base colossi if they find that you're turtling. Crossfire... It's muta/mobility heaven, and if you attack, they counter, forcing you into a base trade situation that they'll likely win because they can take a third and you can't.

all foreigners lost T_T my heart is broken. Hopefully they do better next time and in GSTL.

Regarding whole Idra going back to Korea thing, who cares? He's not going back. He is more solid and consistent than the foreigners there right now though with the exception of Huk who has improved so much from the Korean professional routine.
