Diestar's control at the end was pretty phenomenal. Too bad the game was over lol

He is/was english teacher ;o

He is studying it :-) Becoz you cannot be a teacher with 24 (well maybe it's possible, but I do not think he is already a teacher)

why not? You can totally be a teacher in the states at 24. 4 years uni (you can get certified at most large universities). Maybe an extra year doing regional certification and you're set. 18+5=23


But in Germany its more like: 13years of school, ~4.5years (at least i think) at university + 1year military service inbetween
unless he skipped classes he should be studying still

Thanks for answering! I was wondering if there was a cultural difference

With the New German school system (G8), you can be a teacher with 23-24, you make your ABI with 17 and then study till 21 + 2 years Internship, which makes you a 23 year old teacher

wrong. you graduate with 18 unless you skipped a year. also you have to do a referendariat.
I am in my last years in school and 30% of the people will have they're Abitur with 17 and they haven't skipped a year, with Internship I meant referendariat

you realize that 30% isnt even half of the students right?!
apart from that socke is 24 which means he graduated soonest with 19 (18 according to your calculations) and then he still had to fulfill his military service. so he is certainly NOT a teacher yet....


In Germany every one has to fulfill his military service ? even if there is some document from a hospital that he cant ?
I'm getting the derection.

I was not saying that Socke is a teacher, he was in G9 and had to do Military service, I was just saying that a student who graduated this year (with G8 and without Military service) COULD be a teacher.
But let's get back on topic and talk about IEM

Well...Killer does have pretty terrible PvP (22% win rate). It wouldn't be that unexpected.

yup; diestar controlled much better in the last engagement imo


SHH! Terrans are already beating Protoss so bad these days, don't give them the idea that they can micro their units too!

I'm kinda disappointed by this IEM, last one had Day9 and TLO as casters (Bitter and Rotterdam are good, but not as insightful imo) and the player interviews were better, imo.
