Also, will this be live? | ||

I guess it's another good reason to say "Stephano hasn't legitimately "proved himself" against top tier Koreans", should he win the showmatch. | ||

Koreans have really good internet, top teams shouldn't have a problem playing on foreign servers. I guess it's another good reason to say "Stephano doesn't legitimately beat Code S players", should he win the showmatch, even though he's proved it wrong on multiple occasions. It's not being used as an excuse for MC theoretically losing in most cases. People, me included, feel that lag ruins the legitimacy of anyone's win because it's just not proper conditions to be playing the game. You could make both players play with their feet if you wanted and sure they'd both have an even playing feel but it wouldn't be a proper game. Just listen to the pundits on SOTG when they talked about TSL4 and they mentioned it as well on the show before that. Cross server games are just bad for everyone, players and spectators regardless of who wins. And you should stop denying that lag exists. I get 250ms connecting to NA from EU and I have good internet and am in western Europe. You can't play the game properly with 250ms. | ||

See my edited post. EDIT: And I'm playing on NA from Estonia with a shitty connection. I don't get any lag whatsoever. | ||

Why did Artosis say he has no interest in game played by Koreans on the NA server because they're a waste of time? | ||

I don't get any lag whatsoever. If you don't think it's gamechanging then you just don't know what you're talking about. Imagine you're trying to split marines against banelings or land crucial forcefields with a small amount of delay. I've seen people like you with your "I just don't think it's a big deal" mentality, and they only stopped arguing once IdrA himself came into the thread and said that cross-server games are meaningless due to the lag. People like to say, "Well, it doesn't affect macro", but, yes, it does - it affects all aspects of someone's play. When you're a pro and you're trying to do everything to near perfection and you're used to playing with really good latency, lag simply throws you off. I'm excited for this match just because of the names, but take the results with a massive grain of salt. | ||
