Thats because all the euro's that went except for Mana are 2nd tier pros.

From the OP: G2: Metalopolis, close air, reactor CC vs roach-ling-baneling bust. FD wins 2-0.


Now that's unexpected

Hey can you blame them? They need to make themeselves feel better by pretending they understand the game. Sad thing is that the games were pretty close. Sometimes I wonder if LR threads watch the games or just see the results

Same can be said for the NA pros. Sad fact is that when it comes to top-tier players, EU and NA both only have 4-5 players to offer. Some of them are in Korea, some of them are at MLG, others didn't want to show up to either tourney.

It's just the way it is.

Did you see him play at IPL? Against Ryung specifically? And his completely unviable 'pray my opponent doesn't make a robo' build yesterday?

He usually does better than this, but his performance the last few weeks hasn't been great.

Seeing so many European favorites fall makes me think that Europeans are underestimating the NA players


In europe's defence, I look at the groups and I don't see Naniwa, WhiteRa, Thorzain, Sase, Dimaga, Stephano, Ret, Morrow, while for US I just don't see Idra and Huk.

The only 2 good players in there are Strelok and Mana, incidentally, probably the most unstable ones in terms of results of all the good eu pro players.

I don't see Huk, Idra, Sheth, Select or Kiwikaki, your argument is weak.

If Select is NA then isnt Huk KR by your rationale?
Also add Nerchio to his list.

I am obviously just making fun and not making a serious argument, but the NA bashing by europeans in the past was very real and I don't see why this event shouldn't be used to show EU-server-fanboys their hypocrisy.


You should define "bashing".


If by saying "EU has always had more high calibre pro players than NA" is bashing then I guess I'm happy to be a basher, else I agree having people spam the forums every time a NA loses to an EU/KR and vice-versa is quite annoying.

FF fail. That was awful, Axslav could have held it, but you need to deny high ground vision, and he didn't twice in the second game when he had the opportunity to with the Sentries, and would have taken very little damage.

I'm not that convinced in Axlav's PvP build. I wonder what his plan was.

Hmm, isn't the first thing you ask yourself when you make a PvP build if it's 4-gate proof? :o

Do all 4 Koreans place first? At least 1 European managed to make it through.
