Kas would be interesting to see in the GSL. My one concern would be that his style is pretty narrow.
Like, he has a strat, and everything revolves around those key units. Its not like he goes banshees to harass then goes martine/tank/medivac. He harasses with marine/tank/medivac while going marine/tank/medivac

If you want for someone to win, you should always bet against them, its a win-win then.

No, they are just bad. They don't practice nearly as much as Koreans and not as well. This is the reason, don't make excuses for them. I respect koreans so much for being so good. Foreigners are just lazy.
These posts are really getting obnoxious.
Even a player who didn't practice in months wouldn't have died to a Hellion runby, these games were obviously not representative of Morrow's skill, and anyone with a modicum of knowledge and common sense is aware of this.
Argh, LR threads.

He is probably the best lategame EU zerg.... the problem is getting there ^_^
I simply dont understand some zerg players simcity builds. It is increadibly greedy to only defend with one spine crawler as well. It tares me up inside to see zerg struggle so much with early game pushes from terran :S

Yeah, he should have played someone like Goswer instead.

Yeah Dimaga is up there as well forgot him he and nerchio are on a similar level, I think that Nerchio was a little bit better but Dimaga has more offline experience.

Can we just give Bomber, Polt and Losira the foreigner seeds next season?
Just give them Americanized names and they'll be fine. some foreigner fan don't want to pay for GSL if there is no foreigner (it's about money man!!) That's what I mean. Just say Polt's name is Peter Poltopolis, Bomber is Berry Larsson from Sweden and Losira is Larry Sira from America. Now we're all happy.
oh i found a solution look at Hero case now everyone root him like he is a foreigner
all we need is MouzPolt EmpireBomber bla bla -"-

Lol, they misspelled Slayers for puzzles it was Slyaers. Something like that

Dear fellow foreigner fans,
Let's kind of forget that this game happened.
Love, David So you think that it´s Blizzards fault that Morrow messed up his defence? Not being able to block the ramp with 4(!) queens? I think you either quoted the wrong person or completely misunderstood what I said. By "this game" I meant game 2, not Starcraft 2.
If your name actually is David I´m sorry for jumping to the wrong conclusion.

Brush it off and keep going Morrow <3
But it is really sad how hard foreigners are getting owned in GSL. There have been a few high notes like Jinro's back to back runs. Still though those games with morrow just now were hard to watch cuz I felt so bad for him ; ;
