I guess that says a lot. He is not a bad player. But not a great one either.


MMA couldn't either, he had to win a MLG (easier than NASL) to get his Code S spot

Is MMA not great?


Hold on there, MMA DID qualify through Code B.

Shame that that people cant just enjoy games without player bashing. Try to make this rule for your self: Don´t take crap about people that are miles better then your self.


it's the nature of the beast, you can tune into espn and hear people tallking about how badly a football, golf, basketball, etc. etc. etc. player did... they are "professionals" and we are "spectators" it's our job to judge and criticize, we're not getting payed to perform...

MaNa's recent PvT is nothing to laugh at recently though. 15-1 in series for the last month, counting his win against PuMa.

you can forget people like haypro and sjow to be honest and morrow isnt a 3 top zerg in europe as well.
you gotta compare each of them eachother so im sure poland is better


let's not turn this into X>Y thing, lets just say that top3 european countries are sweden, poland and ukraine for sure.

And Britain. Oh wait our best player hasn't lived here for about a year.


You mean your only player


You know why british are not so good in SC2?

They focus on RPGs, because they like to loot.


That actual made me giggle. Well played sir.


We'll get sick good at LoL because we like Riot games.

That's so smart :p

MMA qualified before that. He beat Ret 2-0 in his first season. After that he got to the round of 8. Lost his up and down matches (against HuK). After that he lost in the 1st round (meaning he would drop out of the GSL.) Got a Code S spot through MLG.

Wait what? You can forget Sjow for some reason? I don't understand your reasoning at all.

sjow is FAR away from being a decent player. he cant multitask for S**T. he just won because terran was OP and everyone was bad. nowadays skill actually matters much more than back then. you cant just win with a decently executed strategy.


Sjow did pretty decently at Assembly, losing to Mana, but beating TLO, Adelscott and Happy. At Anaheim he beat Sheth, Cruncher, and Haypro, losing to Huk. How does any of these recent results mean that Sjow is bad?


well 100020 americans and 9 europeans so of course you always look good and better as well
beating tlo,adel and happy..emm ye... doesnt make him better than the best polish players.
but i bet 100 euros that at least someone from sweden will try to defend it

He also took a macro game off self-proclaimed best TvP in the world Bomber.

I'm sure a mod can help you.

Anyway, these live report threads really are getting out of control. Its like being in school, so much bashing and hate. Cheer up guys.

I think by the end of the year TL will be like reddit, full of troll/novelty accounts.

lr threads have always been out of control, EG is just topical so it comes up often. It will pass, at least until EG does something else.

Right now he probably understands PvT better than almost everyone, including Korean Protosses. He's been dominant in the match up lately, despite coming up against more top Koreans than usual for a European player in such a short space of time.
