2 people competing agaisnt koreans makes it so the gap is closing? dont think so


did you forgot last MLG already where EU had the win-rate against KR? the gap is closing


And the win-rate for KR/EU for HSC/Dreamhack? You can't have it both ways. Take winnners from certain tournaments and win rate from others...

Observer building for Alicia, he's gonna counter the DTs provided he keeps them at his base.

The skill gap between KOR and EU is virtually nonexistant.

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)

Look, you got the best foreigners vs average koreans (besides MC). You can't really draw conclusions from that.


Calling Alicia/puzzle and Hero average koreans is laughable

Well they're not exactly the cream of the crop...

What is the explanation for Nerchio taking out MC 3 1in HSC5 so?

The gap is still just as big NASL koreans are just weak. Look at IPL4 and the MLG championships.


There are only very few Europeans in those tournaments and they done amasing. I dont get you point. Last MLG we had 2 EU players in top 5 and they had better win ratio vs the koreans

Im not saying there isnt a gap but its getting smaller and smaller every month and more and more foreigner players is going pro



I think you are confused because there are a few very good foreigners, but the overall gap is still huge. Imagine a tournament with top 50 koreans and top 50 europeans in it. Pulling numbers out of my ass i'd wager on something like 13 koreans in ro16.

Huk lived with InCa for like a year. He can't stop himself. It's second nature at this point

this is incredible. PvPs with expansions and the expanding player winning! Matchup is one of the best in SC2 right now.

HuK has looked really bad in these first two games. Hope he can at least make this exciting...

HuK is holding on too long on flawed strategies, he needs to adapt quicker.
