I really wish blizzard wouldn't patch. It's quite obvious with this WP/sentry play that they are evolving the meta game for themselves. And now when the patch hits people will start to cry protoss is OP

my understanding is that most of them can speak some english but they wont speak it because they think its bad (And maybe it is) so they dont do it


Ya they probably just want to be more confident in their English before they speak it on stage.



Do the Koreans speak any other language besides Korean, like Chinese or something?

Also- like Appolo said- there is no air- why not spread overlords so u can see the freaking drops incoming after the first couple happened

He didn't do anything about those warp prism even while having corruptors out. He just threw the game away after having a huuuge advantage.


He took at least one of them out with his corruptors.

IdrA could definitely had handled that better, but there is no denying that HerO played phenomenally good and used very unusual tactics.
Education should be our seniors guiding us to be "who" we want to be, not "what" we want to be.

TL had really some sick nose to pick up hero. I know they had huk and jinro inside the house to notice him, but still, they picked him up right as he exploded in the scene (or he exploded in the scene because they picked him up).
I mean, his korean TLPD was fucking awful, and now his int TLPD is bonjwa-like (not that he is one, please don't make a 20 pages debate because I used that word) with all matchups over 70%.

If you're talking about exploding in foreign scene, then that's what'll happen if you take any solid Korean and put him in USA or Europe.

Can you speak Korean?

I can speak my native language, english, german and spanish.

Edit: But that's not the point. Most of the people who play computer games online have a good grasp of the English language. I'm just curious why Koreans don't?


You do realize that while European languages are relatively similar to each other. They are very different from Asian language, right? It's much easier for Koreans to learn languages like Japanese, or Chinese too.

Hero played so extremely good that game. It is some of the best protoss play I have ever seen.

Can't wait to see him once the races are actually balanced.
I can no longer rest under the tree of wisdom, since you have axed down the roots feeding it.

Just as I said, EG "stars" are out coz they are not in top anymore.

How is losing to either hero or thorzain not good? Thorzain and hero are both fing ballers. Same with idra and huk. A little harsh to bash someone who lost in an 8 man elite invitational.

Seeing games like that makes me frustrated to see Blizzard so liberal in their balance patches. Races going through though times in the end tends to make for a more exiting metagame (especially in this case, so much more enjoyable to watch this type of protoss play than deathballs or outdated all-ins), players having to push their race to new limits.

Can't believe people are suggesting he drop 10+ spines at every base. Yeah , 4 x 10 = 40 drones. 40 drone . Have fun mining off 3 base with 30 drones. very well played by hero , feed backs were on point and his drops were amazing.

Makes me wonder what protosses have to say after that. " gateway units are blah blah blah blah against infestors blah" lol..

Didn't you see him floating something like 4k minerals?

Can you speak Korean?

I can speak my native language, english, german and spanish.

All of those are European languages and somewhat similar. Try learning Chinese, Korean or Japanese. It would probably take at least 5-10 years to become fluent in it from a Western background, and vice versa if you only knew an Asian language.

Wow, i'm gonna change my PvZ Oo. That was freaking amazing, haven't been able to catch much of Hero's playstyle, but he's quickly becoming one of my favourite protoss' !!

People talking about idra failing instead of Hero winning need to realize that the multi-pronged attacks and forcing Idra to multitask is a big part of hero's strategy and playstyle so please give him some credit, sheesh.
