Even if this discussion is about being good, instead of producing results, who do you rate as the best? He who wins the most shit, or he who has more of this "skill" that everyone talks about. I can appreciate some players who are extremely good but never actually win the big finals (yellow), but in the end, those who win are the ones who win. Not those who are good. Because thats a totally different situation. Do I want to be someone who got lucky and won a million through gambling, or a hardworking man who "only" has won half a million? Its a compltetely pointless discussion, but I know that in the future we can expect the hardworking man to do better than the lucky gambler. And this is probably what you miss. There is no kind of (unexplainable) secret that has yielded Alive better results (and Ryung worse results). Its mostly due to variance (+ not having pariticapted in the right tournaments). ANd if you think there is some kind of "secret" that can explain why Ryung is doing worse than Alive, then it can be attributed to decision making/strategy/mechanicas/mentaliity that is a part of being good. | ||

It makes complete sense to seed foreigners unfairly to bring in exstra cash exactly. that's why I said I was glad Gom isn't like KESPA and it still worries me about the KESPA transition and the impact it'll have on current SC2 teams.. | ||

Oh dear and I actually think he has a chance There's no way dude Even if he gets to the finals (extremely unlikely) I bet 95% of the Korean scene will assist his opponent in coming up with strats. | ||

Squirtle (80% winrate vs him? wtf) Parting (god of PvT), Ace (who just 2-0 today) and Naniwa (who 2-0 his code S group).... I mean, if I was a terran player who got to practice with these guys everyday, I would be in heaven! You're forgetting BO help from Bomber and also Sound who Startale has used as a TvP sniper in the past. Pretty OP training. | ||

And yes there are also some phenomenal pro player-casters but they still cannot make everything work as well as Artosis seems to be able to. Though I do love the Incontrol and Idra combo a ton. I know i'll probably get flamed for saying this but, I actually prefer Khaldor/Artosis over Tastosis... O_O Listening to them working together today was a treat... and yes, I agree Artosis with anyone else is generally good as well. | ||

That guy is nothing but mediocore (and terrible when he tries to make bad jokes all the time). Artosis/Khaldor was a fantastic casting duo. | ||

I'm beginning to like Wolf better, just because I remembered that he is the only that notices the REALLY incredibly important stuff, that Legend seems to point out every game. | ||

If he makes it out of the group he will go against the winners of group B. Group B is: July(Bad vP and has actually lost against Naniwa.. or Huk?) Hero(PvP which Naniwa is good at) Leenock(Who has bad vP) MVP(Bad vP and has lost against Naniwa) Hahaha It might be the tiredness talking but I can see naniwa doing it | ||

So what is you point? aLive just got lucky and beat MMA, MVP, DRG, NESTEA, MC, MKP etc? Or was he good? Which is why he has gotten results? Also what you want is not the point, I believe just as much as the next guy that hard work > luck. But in a game based a lot on luck, there is bound to be some variations, however IM_MVP was pretty good for a long time, was he just lucky a long time in a row? Walking away from this discussion now. | ||
