I don't want to be negative, but all of these interviews are totally useless... it's like they made them for important figures to praise MLG and shizz. I really expected different set of questions for president and co-founder of Blizzard.

NA really is talentless

User was warned for this post


first, this is usa. second, usa is one country so don't compare it to europe.


If you compare it population-wise though, we really are pretty bad.


its only equivalent to a few countries. besides, you have to take the culture into account



Well, USA has a population of like 312 million, Sweden has 10 million. And you could make very good arguments for them being on par.

But then UK has 62 million and only two good players so I can't really talk.

Higher population, yes. Also a larger country with events all over it, money being a factor, it is very difficult to break out in America without having a favorable situation. By your logic though, China should have the best players in the world just because they have the largest pop.



Not really, not by my logic no. Did you read what I was replying to at all? We weren't talking about culture.

One person said by population the US is really bad, and that's all we're talking about. Another responded the US is only equivalent to a few countries, and my point was it's equivalent to 31.2 Swedens, so by population it's really bad.

Obviously there is a reason for it... and that reason is culture.


this guy is right. i don't see how you guys don't see it. there's a reason why koreans are dominant. its not because of their population.


This guy is not right the reason is infrastructure. Pro SC grew up in Korea and so the set up is already there. There is a reason so many Olympic athletes train in the US regardless of country.

Though I'm not trying to say we would automatically be better than Koreans if that infrastructure existed but you cannot deny that is the main factor in their dominance.

Holy shit.. it actually is.

I wish I'd been watching this instead of WCG.

Check the final MK match from the recent Fighter arena, pretty awesome stuff. VOD is on MLG site.

You will see fatalities sometimes, but not that often as far as I've seen.

I use to watch some Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 tournament matches back in the day... they never did Fatalities when I watched. It was usually some lame uppercut punch or a jab.

Ye, it's not extended series, but that's their way of giving the player from winners bracket an advantage. What kind of confusing shit is that rule, MLG? Why not just make the player coming from the loser bracket having to win 2 bo5s instead?

Mr.Morhaime please explain why the nationals have different price pools...
What makes US better than Germany and Sweden in SC2 ?
Pretty silly if you ask me.


Probably that NA can be divided up into USA, Canada, and Mexico, whereas Europe has France, Sweden, Germany, Netherlands, and so on and so forth.

Easier to divvy up a prize pool into three than like, ten.
Incremental change is the Democrat version of Trickle Down economics.

Get that fighting game bullshit out of here. This is a thread in a forum called Starcraft 2 tournaments, about a tournament that is starcraft 2 only.

I don't think that, as some people said, NA scene rewards more image than skills, because the two stars of the NA scene are IdrA and HuK, and historically, it was the 2 players that had the best results, in and out of Korea.

Edit : but yeah, that's true guys like Destiny, Incontrol, Desrow, Catz have all popularity without having amazing results, but the majority of people know that they are not the best american players

Yeah it's just a good excuse for Morhaime to go up and mention HotS which he wants a lot of sales of. But then we could never expect MLG to ask the tough questions, they have to kiss blizzards arse a bit.

They do have to win 2 Bo5s.

The second Bo5 is extended series as it is the second series they have played
