Yea, I've never seen Destiny play before but after watching this game he is far, far below the levels of foreign pros.
Didn't he give the koreans a run for their money on their ladder?
Not any noteworthy koreans. Somehow he mananged to beat Bomber in a bo3 in geforce pro-am tourney, and even if it was cross server kr-na with lag that's still kind of weird. Destiny's strength is late-game anyway, he has terrible early game haha.
Infestors lol, yea didn't think he was that great, the lack of team/practise house shows in his games

Good play from TLO after a pretty bumpy game1. And yay for one german in the finals
Don't talk such a crazy shit. The first game was absoluty close. The second game was abusement all along the road and the third one was just bad luck for destiny going mutas while tlo teched straight to thors.
God I hate such idiots always hating on certain players just because they got crushed in a bo5. Yeah guess what: it happens sometimes. So Idra is certainly also overrated for losing the extended series 4:2 to MC. And oh let's not begin with Dimaga who got crushed 3:0 against socke right before ... god damn it! Start thinking before posting such dumb ass stuff

He has good micro and engages well, but has pretty bad macro for a "pro". If he just focused more on macro and stayed low tech to fend off timing pushes and harass and then transition into infestors, then I think he would do much better. He's way too stubborn~

Can I say the same thing about Dimaga after being stomped 3-0?
Can I? Cause at least Destiny was dern close to winning a match
I do not agree that Destiny did not belong there as it was invitational, but if we wanted to go by merit, I think Dimaga has results to back up his inclusion.

well, vs TLO, who doesnt belong into the tournament either by european standards.
Destiny is good in korean ladder, because no1 knows him and his style, the ppl he faces in tournaments know exactly who they face and have an easy time.
I'd posit that any zerg would have trouble with what Destiny faced. Game 2 and 3 were both really rough timings for any zerg. How do you deal with that many thors as zerg? No way you can get to Brood Lord tech at that time. It's a rough spot.

It is not nice that you call me an idiot. The other players have nothing to prove, we know they are top foreigners. Destiny has done nothing noteworthy besides an online Bo3 win against a good korean.
You also only need 3 lines to find excuses for three losses in a row, that is quite telling in my opinion.
Update : TLO has to accept all his paypal donations individually so now the widget is updating with his donations as he accepts each one. Expect to see a more accurate number as time passes.

1st game he shoud have won but map was pretty imba, other games Im putting on the fact that it was like 8am and he was probably tired as shit.

Protoss foreigners still get absolutely stomped when korean terrans come over and win everything (NASL IEM MLG) so it really doesn't say much.
Mana vs Nada Elfi vs Nada Kiwikaki vs Nada Mana vs Puma
Sup son? P(foreigner)vT(korean) is probably the matchup which foreigners have the highest winrate in rate now. Maybe that's mostly Nada's fault tho ^^.

It is not a single Bo5 though. It is not like Destiny had better showing in other tournaments ever.

That's definitely Nada's questionable TvP at fault there =p
but yeah, there's less gap between foreign P's and korean P's than there is foreign T's and korean T's imo. Korean T's just get pushed forward so fast due to numbers and team house development.
