Good effort from Sjow, but very much a classic foreigner vs korean performance where a few mistakes make the difference.

sjow just went full foreigner there, outplaying polt for 19 minutes and then attacking up a ramp into siegetanks. but i like polt, so it's ok^^


Except he wasn't outplaying Polt. He killed the CC and then proceed to keep on losing engagements. He killed some SCVs as well, but again kept proceeding to lose his lead. Like I said before, if you look at the supplies, Polt kept making the supply gap smaller and smaller until he was even at the bad engagement. There was never a point after Sjow took the lead in which he increased his lead.

Polt said he wants to avoid protoss because they are strong, not play vs genius but play vs Ret.


Important distinction =p

Doing something awesome vs a Korean then farting it all away in a whirlwind of terrible decisions.
Sjow went full fucking foreigner.


Where is it from? When/how did it start?

From 2 years of it happening... I believe Drazerk and Asha coined the phrase, and it has become particularly popular in this tournament.


Oh lol. I've been following SC2 since inception, and I never heard of that phrase until SjoW blew it with that engagement... Pretty funny term since it totally sums up a lot of Foreigner showings in tournaments.

Main reason Koreans > Foreigners, because of decision making.

To be fair, although there are many areas where Polt is lacking compared to other Korean terrans, positional play in TvT has always been one of his strongpoints. It's no shame for Sjow to lose, but it's a pity he kind of threw away an advantage in both games.
Don't hate the player, hate the game
