I'm not trolling, just go and read the OP of this thread. It clearly says ... Nerchio 4-5 Jjakji (GSL Champion). This thread had become the home ground of those who think there is no skill gap at the top level. Just like the IPL 3 thread where Stephano won 4-0 vs a Code S player. If you want to talk about Koreans owning the foreigners go bump the HSC4 thread. Just don't do it in this thread, because it's clearly off topic (the result in OP proves you wrong!). | ||

Umm no it doesn't. The results in one online showmatch don't prove that. What proves there is a skillgap is 2 years of results. | ||

I guess it's entirely up to him, but banelings just seem to be a key part of ZvT to me. | ||

You can say as well that we can't tell how Jjakji would do in European tournaments because he didn't attend any I hope i can continue playing Sc2 though because i do badly lately Such a level headed guy you are Nerchio. You made a fan out of me. I'll be rooting for you from now on. | ||

You won't know how the game would have ended on a lan event until you tried. Believ, so we can believe, too! | ||

Nerchio isn't even Code A material man, same as every other foreigner. Actually they were playing korea to NA and EU to NA so they both had some lag. | ||

With that said, it's kind of sad that some people actually think there's little to no skill gap between top-level Koreans and Europeans. The typical pattern seems to be: Foreigner does well against top Korean in cross-server play -> Foreigner fanboys overrate player ("Oh, he could easily hang with the top Koreans!") -> Foreigner ends up getting stomped at a LAN event like MLG/GSL/IEM -> Fanboys are let down (and rightly so). Seriously, I have no problem with people acknowledging that various foreign players are really damn good, but when you try to claim that they can hang with Korea's top talent on the mere basis of laggy cross-server play while LAN event results and the superior practice infrastructure Koreans have completely say otherwise, you look rather stupid. | ||
