It's common to "learn" a language and not have any comfortable grasp of it unless you put it to use in your everyday life.

It mystifies me how some players can get a huge win and barely show any emotion. I'd be fist pumping and slapping crowd hands all over :D If I just beat the foreigner, in a foreign country, where he is the fan favorite for that particular match, I don't know how I'd feel exiting that booth.

And a 12 year old Swedish kid can (Najsomething)? Anyway I guess it's offtopic, so I'll drop it.

Socke is one of the most consistent solid foreigners going and always gets really deep in tournaments, funny how people still seem count him out.

I'm not the one saying that Nestea got lucky in his games vs. Stephano. You think he coin flipped when he made a lot of lings. I don't, and this is why foreigners lose a lot of games to greed.

Nestea and Stephano did exactly the same in that last game but Nestea was prepared and stephano not. being prepared or not is not about luck, its about understanding "fuck he might attack me"

Swedish and English are both germanic languages, not a fair comparison.

Gah If I had known I would start a fight between a Nestea/Stephano Fan I would have just kept silent about it...
