How can people say the gap is about the same as 2011 when the results are so different?

Alicia had that from start to finish, in control of the pace of the game the whole time.
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Not sure if Alicia played well or Huk Fuked up, probably a mix of both. PvP as a matchup has gotten so much better now.

If Alicia lost that Obs this game goes differently


But he didn't, so there is no if.

I was just trying to point out that it was actually quite close. 1-2 more stalker shots and it might be Huks game

lol it is very existant.

Sick crowd there!

not anymore dude.

Koreans used to CRUSH foreigners a year ago, nowadays you don't see it anymore as most of the games are so close it can go either way (ofc unless theres some gimmicky unscouted all-in).

Rest of the world has caught up with Koreans even though they still practice significantly less. Just goes to show you how low the skill ceiling is in sc2 compared to BW since anyone can beat anyone at the highest level.

Why do people keep saying this? Koreans are still dominating whether you wanna admit it or not. One tournament won't change that.


Remember the time when whenever say 6 Koreans would be invited to foreign tourneys they would take top 6 in convincing fashion?

Those days are long gone and instead of the gap increasing (which is what logically should happen when koreans practice so much more and are much more dedicated) it has decreased and is still decreasing way too fast.

There's no "domination" anymore, it's just who plays better and who's luckier on a given day.

Lol the gap is getting closer... but it's still very much there. Don't delude yourself... lol

GO ALICIA!

keep telling yourself that, just don't be surprised if Stephano or Ret win NASL (which would have NEVER happened a year ago)
