The following is a list of behaviors that will get immediate bans:

1. Whining about stream
2. Bashing other games
3. Flaming other users
4. Bashing players
5. Complaining about imbalance

Basically just be respectful. Aside from that, enjoy the games, make sure you bring an umbrella and have some delicious waffles! (#)

ALMOST all of them turned out to be foreigner vs korean where the foreigner went into to it with the mindset 'This guy is better then me maybe I can cheese him out'.

90 times out of 100.

The Korean guy IS better than the foreigner. The dominance they've displayed now at three consecutive MLGs is starting to intimidate the players. I don't blame them at all.


Its more like 100 times out of 100. The very best foreigners in the world are not even Code A material imho and maybe not even Code B level either. Its just amazing how deeply talented and skilled the level of play in Korea is. Honestly the only way the gameplay will get better at MLG is to just invite more and more Koreans or all the foreigners go over to Korea and get insanely good.


You know there are numberous foreigners competing in Code A right?

And Huk is in the Ro8 of Code S?


Huk doesn't count. He's been competing in Korea for so long, he's the real evidence that there's something in the water over there making the people playing there so much better. The amount he's improved since he started playing over there is astounding.

He's got a reputation from BW for being a top-tier practice partner for people like Flash who just never made it due to nerves or whatever else kept him from getting wins so there's a lot of hype surrounding him based on that.

Then there's the fact that he really seems to be a legitimately good player in SC2, beating people like MC in high level tournaments.

IEM.


he's pretty overhyped and overrated to be honest. at IEM he just beat a bunch of foreigners and than had a rematch with MC again, who is losing to just about everyone at the moment.

watching him doesn't feel the same as watching immvp

Rotterdam + Bitter is way better than Tastosis.

2GD + TLO = true win, I never laughed so much

http://sv.twitch.tv/dreamhacktv/b/286348767?id=286348767&channel=dreamhacktv

This is the truth. While I have absolutely nothing against any of the casters at this MLG or over at ESL I have never laughed as much as when 2GD + TLO was casting the WCG Sweden SC2 tour.

Tastosis is probably still the best looking at pure commentating quality

im just curious. I haven't heard very much about him and was just curious.

He did well in the iccup.tv weekly korean tournaments, also had a good performance in GSTL.

I feel like Tastosis seem better at casting in the GSL compared to MLG. Maybe they can't say there side banter as much due to having the live audience?

I've noticed that too; definitely less funny banter. Even so, I'd watch them over anyone else by far.

You're one of the most amazingly delusional human beings I've ever come across.

You realize Huk and everyone thats in Code A is living in Korea right?


"The very best foreigners in the world are not even Code A material"

Doesn't matter where they are.


You dont get it do you. Huk is in Korea so he technically doesnt count as a foreigner since he doesnt live outside Korean and plays on the Korean server. GTFO

Huk living in Korea makes him as much a Korean as Rain a foreigner or Puma for living in US for 2 weeks. Plenty of Europeans have team houses in not there home country. Demuslim is living in EG house iirc and that doenst change his nationality either.

That's mostly because there are so many top Koreans invited and so few EU players. With Mana, Dimaga, Tarson etc. this would look very different.


Somehow I highly doubt that.

If you saw how thoroughly thrashed Thorzain and Naniwa are getting in the GSL right now you'd understand that it isn't just the North American and Korean gap that's huge it's also the Korean/European gap as well.

Not saying it wouldn't be better than having some of the lower tier players in the pools replaced with some European pros, but I don't think it would make much difference in unseating the dominance the Koreans are displaying.


I guess you haven't been watching GSTL if you think Thorzain and Naniwa are getting "thoroughly thrashed"

They just got allkilled and the only match they won was vs MVP without using dongraegu...(their whole team basically)

Well no shit, you can't play in Code A or Code S if you're not in Korea, genius. And it's not a weekend MLG - you have to be prepared to stay there an extended period of time if you keep winning.
