Thorzain in his worst matchup vs. a top 3 Korean Zerg with his best matchup.
The score is 1-1.
Looks like the gap between Koreans and foreigners are getting smaller, whatever the series will end in.
oh cmon man Thorzain is one of my favorite but you are basing this of one freaking game.
That can hardly be credible evidence.

That might be true if thorzain didn't just come back from korea training in the slayers house.
Korea/people training in korea > everyone else.

I don't know but I actually enjoy the DH commercials

When Artosis says "When ahead - get more ahead" he's right about 90% of the time. But if you ask day9, there's also moments when "you just go f****** kill him".

it's funny cause Spanish people actually eat at like 10:30 pm

Remember DreamHack winter?
Thorzain was this nobody... and he stayed a nobody, losing ezpz to WhiteRa in the group stages

That's what people said when Idra beat MC 2-1 at Columbus.
The gap is still gigantic. There are a few exceptions, but even then, a gigantic gap. Going to take years until foreigners can compete consistently in bigger tournaments.

On top of that Thorzain is korean anyways.

Hahaha I love that part.

I don't know if Thorzain can take the entire series, but can he take another game off him?
Come on, Thorzain!

This is why i say it doesn't really work that well TvZ to take artosis advice of "when ahead, get more ahead". He almost lost that game, while playing pretty damn well, just because he didn't pull the trigger :/ Artosis's advice works when you are actually capable of playing a macro game solidly versus some of the best in the world. Thorzain demonstrated that he isn't on DRG's level yet, just getting drawn and quartered by DRG's muta control. I guarantee you if MVP was in a similar situation, had he decided to go into a macro game it would have been far less close.
Yeah, it only takes arguably the best player in the world to play a solid macro game against a very good zerg. There were things I certainly questioned in thorzain's play there(such as not getting 1 thor, having too small groups of rines together defending), but it was far from bad imo.

Damn terminus RE for thorzain....this is definately gonna be a spoon kill if I ever saw one.

Looks like the gap between Koreans and foreigners are getting smaller, whatever the series will end in. Meh, Thorzain has been practicing with SlayerS; he's also really good. As much as I would like the gap to be getting smaller, I really don't see one European (who has been practicing with a Korean pro-team) winning one game as proof of the gap diminishing. Look at MLG 
Lulz.. he played with slayers for like 4 days or something. Not really worth mentioning.

People often miss the Artosis Corollary.
When you have gotten more ahead, go fucking kill him.
