I mean hell, every Korean that could possibly advance did so. I think the biggest argument in favor of a large gap between Koreans and Europeans is that if other Code S, A, or B(Moon/Puma) Koreans were sent to this tournament they would perform well, while none of these foreigners could even make it through the Code A qualifiers, let alone make it into Code S. Stephano and Naniwa are the only foreigners who truly play at a Code S level. Though, many koreans and foreigners have said that Stephano's style is not suited for GS. And Naniwa, I don't want to take anything away from him but I guess I have to, was given a welfare seed into Code S and has had some of the luckiest groups I have ever seen. Hack, Stc (2 of the worst players in Code S) and PvP's 2 seasons in a row? He lost handily to an injured Mvp and lost to DRG who admitted he was fooling around.... Which Korean and foreign players have said that Stephanos style wouldn't fit the gsl? | ||

Similar to Chinese table tennis domination vs foreigners. When I saw dozens of table tennis tables at a park OUTSIDE buildings when I travelled to china, I felt it would take 100 years to take those Chinese guys. When I watched Starcraft games on TV 24/7 at a hotel when I travelled to Korea, I felt the same way for Starcraft. | ||

There were several progamers and such who said that Stephanos style can be easily countered and he won't be dominant for more than a month until people figure out his style... and Stephano proved them all wrong (for now). Noone can predict how anyone does in GSL, i think foreigners still have some suprises ready. | ||
