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! (#)

i'm annoyed by the downtime and i've only been watching this mlg for about 45 minutes. they need to find a way to stream some form of gameplay instead of this crowd camera waste of bandwidth.

finally here it is.

Kiwikaki just has that strategic mindset, I think he has a lot of potential that we've only started to see.



I don't know about you, but I saw his potential the same time I saw HuK's potential and that was way back in beta. :l

Draco was the best sc1 foreigner

Tester losing to Slush lol.


yeah DRG 0-2 TesteR and SLush 1-0 TesteR is a logical paradox.

idk, Slush was always good and DRG ZvP was never really that good unless it's a teamleague game.

Kiwikaki is nowhere close to Code S quality.

In case you forgot, MC got knocked down to the up and down matches this season as did Alicia.
Kiwikaki shows flashes of absolute brilliance. I wish he could hone that into a consistent beast of a game but so far they are just flashes.

You need more than occasional brilliance to survive the GSL. That's how Jinro got eliminated.

Sorry I don't see a huge difference in skill level between huk and kiwi, and I'm probably a better judge of that than every gold players that lurks teamliquid


Your better judge of skill is saying that Kiwi belongs in Code S more than Nada. Which clearly shows you're either delusional or intentionally trolling.

Kiwikaki is good, but he couldn't even make it out of the loser's bracket of the NA invitational. If he can't even do well in a NORTH AMERICAN ONLY tournament how in the world do you honestly see him getting anything but embarassed in Korea.

Ok I don't mind NA only tournament bashing but this is heavily misleading. The tournament only had 8 players and he got knocked out by Huk. You make it sound like he was knocked out by some no-name in some mlg-type tournament in the losers bracket.

random b teamer would have smashed him but if he were given the right practice environment he would have been a sick beast, any foreigner would have gotten smashed by random b teamers

in the estro challenge thingy jf was actually the foreigner who put up the best fight vs the korean players

To be fair Fayth is/was on the same team as Kiwi, so of course he's going to defend him. They're both very good players.


I don't mind him defending Kiwi, but saying he "deserves" a spot in the most prestigious and competitive SC2 league in the world over someone who's already earned it and consistently keeps his spot is a bit over the top.


Code S is ruthless. No one DESERVES a spot in Code S that hasn't earned it. Look at DRG! He probably deserves to be there over at least a couple Zergs in there, but he still hasn't earned it.

Also people who say "NANI AND THORZAIN ARE RAPING KOREA!" lets take a look at TLPD

Thorzain - 4 wins 5 losses.
Nani - 1 win 4 losses
Fenix - 2 wins 5 losses


2 of those losses are from GSL arent they`? And the day the swedes were playing they had just arrived the day before and had some jet lag and not much practice even before that.
And considering most of the korean themselfs even has close to 50% win loss percent in gsl and gstl, only DRG, Nestea have like 70% on winrate.

So it does like pretty decent excluding the crappy gsl day they had.
Thorzain - 4 wins 3 losses.
Nani - 1 win 2 losses
Fenix - 2 wins 3 losses

Looks like any decent korean results to me, and they haven't been in korea practicing that long unlike the koreans.


Korean players in GSL arn't considered "decent" if they have 40% win ratios. They're mocked and laughed at by Artosis.... so I guess if you want to throw TZain, Nani and Fenix into that group then go ahead lol.

They're the few exceptions to the rule. I think the ESTRO coach said that if NonY stayed and trained longer, he had a chance of making the A team.
