So utterly irrational.
To be fair, those are just from two different groups of people.

Well he won his ro32 match so he has shown he can win Code A games. Going 1-1 in Code A doesn't mean you don't belong there.
People are being way to harsh on Sjow.

Wow. Not a single result went the way I wanted them to. That fucking sucks. Can someone tell me what happened in the Hero games?
G1
+ Show Spoiler +Yugioh does an aggressive roachling push early on that kills a forge and nothing else. Techs to hydras, nydus, and infestors before taking a 3rd. Nyduses like 5 hydras before the worm is killed. Absolutely no damage done. Hero with the quick 3rd makes some colossi and rolls Yugioh
G2
+ Show Spoiler +Didn't catch all of it, but Yugioh got fast infestors on 2 base. Hero screwed around with some DTs that did nothing to Yugioh. Hero teched to HT but didn't use it, and got a later 3rd than Yugioh. Yugioh techs to hive -> greater spire while Hero techs to double robo colossus. Yugioh rides his eco advantage and tech advantage to overpower Hero
G3
+ Show Spoiler +Yugioh kills Hero's scouting probe early, and throws down a fast roach warren on 1 base. Roachling all in coming. Hero scouts the lack of expansions (both at the natural and at the gold), but does not make any additional cannons at his natural besides the first 2 until he seems the units coming. Way too late on the additional cannons, plus no units costs Hero the game.
Or read the LRs if you don't like mine

Curious is a code S level zerg, he would have destroyed most people in code A like that. That said Sjow did play pretty terrible on top of that...

i wonder what the poster was thinking about when writing that, people use this argument a lot and they dont even realize there is a lot of fucking people here and u obviously didnt see 10 guys do both, just 10 one and 10 the other

People tend to look terrible when they are outmatched, that does happen a lot to koreans as well.

No hero!!! Sage and poss JYP is our only hope now

Please don't say shit like that. Ever.

well, sage/oz/jyp still have a good chance to make it to up/downs
if not, we already have one protoss guaranteed in up/downs with puzzle...wait....

without seeing a single game: disappointing results
|
Suprised to see Hero lost the rest was kinda expected unfortunately for Select and Sjow. Anyway yay for GuMiho :O
PvZ is/was very hard probably harder then TvP was/is in Korea. JYP probably has the best chance of the Protoss players to advance to the Up-Downs because FD is probably the weakest Zerg left and also dropped a Map to Sase. Not feeling Sage or Oz can win against Check and Superstar.
There was a patch yes but the metagame hasn't changed and Protoss has to implement new strategies before the metagame can change again don't see it happening so soon in GSL matches.

Damn fell asleep during the Gumiho match. I'm so disappointed in the results =(

You should consider to stop rooting for people.
Gives them bad luck

Sad for both foreigners I think SeleCT is definitely code A material at least he put on a show (no pun intended) against sC who is obviously code S material and won convincingly in the RO32 but as for Sjow he needs to work on his game man.....

Sjow was in korea for 2 weeks and people expect him to do well vs one of the best zergs in code A. How long did it take for Huk or Jinro to do anything?
Ya Jinro did not qualify for the first few pre-seasons and Huk's major accomplishments (Dreamhack and HSC) came many many months after practicing in Korea.
Give Sjow, Select and Nani some time.
