I thought it's gonna be 5:1 at best, and what a nice suprise i got so see

It's funny how people from Americas somehow tried to disregard Nerchio's good result.
"they played on EU ?, not showing builds, terrible maps, whatever else..."

The score says it all. It was BO9 so it's hard to blame entire serises on luck or other things.
Don't be an ass and be happy that the gap between EU and KR isn't big enough like in BW times.
We got to see nice series with two excellent players and excellent games.

I'm sorry that NA don't have that many top players.
Instead of trying to disregard Nerchio's achievements, why don't you engage yourself more into your scene by organising and playing more online cups, get your friends to try out SC2. Just be more competitive, like Sheth for example.

P.S. I'm sure results could be different if Nerchio wouldn't have to study most of his time.

It's not only Americas, it's just people who know that there is indeed a skill gap between KR and EU.
No matter how well you do against a korean in an online match, that doesn't mean anything really, the conditions are far too suboptimal.

They played all their games on NA because Nerchio's nick at NA is Desanir.

Nerchio always has really high apm, and strong mechanics - sadly his not streaming often. People forget that players like MaNa or Nerchio are studying and unable to dedicade fully to sc2 like IdrA, Huk, SaSe, NaNi not even mentioning korean pros. So 5-4 with GSL champion it is impressive even if online. And both and had lags, and errors due to it.
oh in the sun sun having fun

I only watched first 4 maps, it was getting late (/early :p). How was the rest of the games? Did nerchio stop the infestor abuse after 4th map? Or did jj just figure it out?
let's bounce

Same lol. Everybody should be happy to see foreigners able to hold their own but its always a torrent of buttpain. zzz

I tend to root for Koreans, but people need to stop shouting LAG every time. Instead why not point out that Jjaki won 4 of the last five. Why was that btw? Did he just figure out nerchio? Or...

If you check the results in the OP, wins were rather exchanged till the last game.
Figuring out might be partially true due to Nerchio's infestors, coz Koreans tend to use banes.

i dont think it was the case. Nerchio didnt use ultras till it was 3-1 for him and once he used BL he did win again. Last game was on ST which is horrible for zerg still Nerchio was holding pretty long.

Just out of curiosity, has anybody else been really unimpressed by these games? Generally I'm excited going into an ace match, but with the way these two have been playing and the map (Shattered Temple) I just cannot be excited about this...

I have not been particularly happy either. Perhaps my expectations are biased, though: Nerchio played better than I thought, but Jjakji just seemed offline. Again, Jjakji is not the most consistent/solid/clean player, but he usually knows better than staying on marine/tank for twenty minutes and then going "ooops 15 broodlords, guess I just lose now".


That's because of two things.
1. jjakji was lagging.
2. jjakji wasn't even trying. That was probably like 0.00001% of his skill when compared to the games vs. Leenock or Sen.


Wow, I thought I was biased because of nationality but what you are saying is 0 credit to Nerchio, i suggest you shut the hell up before talking shit about players and making retarded excuses for others. Damn it sorry, people like you make me so angry.

I'm sorry but MVP is not near MMA in neither achievements (since recent GSL titles are way harder to get than at the time MVP won) nor skill-level but maybe he's #2 but I still think Jjakji plays better than MVP recently

For reference:

MMA vs MVP

That and out of the last 3 GSL competitions MMA won 2 of them

You really do talk some crap.

MVP has won 3 GSL's, Blizzcon, MLG Anaheim, WCG.

He's also made the finals of a GSL, and the semi finals of two other GSL's and the final of a Code A.

MVP is easilly the best player in the world.

Jjakji on the other hand has won one GSL, ever. That is it.

Jjakji's isn't even in the worlds top 5 best players.

He's behind MVP, MMA, DRG, Nestea, Leenock and MC.

One tournament does make you the best player in the world. I like Jjakji and his play but he got so unbelievable lucky with his bracket last Code S. He dodged most of the worlds best players except for MVP (who he lost to) and Leenock and got a free pass through the second group stage because of the Coca drama. He barely beat Oz (a good up and comer but not an absolutely top player) and then beat Leenock in the final. Aside from the Nestea win where he dodged every Terran except Ensnare it was the easiest ever path to winning Code S ever. Even in this season he drew two of the worst players in Code S (other candidates include Yugioh, Zenio and Idra) in Boxer and Sen and then almost lost to Boxer anyway while Ganzi completely stomped him.

Jangbi is not BW's best Protoss, Stephano was never the worlds best Zerg and Thorzain was never the worlds best Terran. You need consistency over several months and multiple achievements to reach that level, you also need to beat the other best players around. The only other players Jjakji has beaten in the top six is Leenock.
Mvp, Nestea, Leenock, MC, Oz, Jjakji!
