You yourself said that you took a long vacation from the game for what 3 months? Naniwa can't be good in 3 match up at the same time while Korean Protoss players can. SortOf...well the jury is still out him whether he is a patch Zerg or not. Can you name me one top Swedish player that train regularly 12 hours a day and have the raw talent and drive to reach the very top in SC 2? Boy you are on fire this weekend, trashing player to left and right. Swedish players are hyped up for a reason, they have been performing damn well and we have a pretty big pool of good players compared to our country size. Swedes have been doing worse recently, apparently that makes us talentless slackers with shitty decision making. Good call! | ||

Every night after I've been cleaning myself up and getting ready for bed (10-15 min) I get so alert for a while, so I always squeeze in that necro wank before actually hitting the joint. good stuff | ||

I can't criticise EG because I'm an EG fan? :/ I just see a pattern as many others do. That is, EG picks up players, eg Idra, Huk, Puma, JYP, Thorzain, at the height of their careers, ie after they win tourneys or become famous in the community because of their play, and then we see their form or fame dip immediately after. Maybe it is the pressure of being in EG and this is something that the EG management can look into. Maybe give some psychological training as well. | ||

I've had to do this so many times its not funny, but look at the results of HuK, Puma JYP and Thorzain after EG. Major tournament wins for all of them (multiple ones for Puma) apart from JYP who's general form has improved, from Code A to Code S, won a series vs a Korean Terran recently, played great in GSTL. | ||

Maybe give some psychological training as well. i think part of it might actually be the fact they get paid very well (presumably) just to be an EG, so some players tend to become a bit complacent. and also EG might just buy these players right before they pass their prime and it would've looked exactly the same if they hadn't been signed by EG. | ||

You're a fantastic player but I hate you so effing much for knocking out my favorite players at every event. You better beat Hack next round. Rofl: The Eury debate is hilarious. I am baffled that it actually appears that he took a reply that included "my dad is better than your dad" seriously. He may be older than Morrow but he sure as shit ain't smarter. + Show Spoiler + "ain't smarter" added just to rustle some jimmies. | ||

The fact that the criticism of Swedish players got a warning and this didn't is mildly disturbing. | ||

Morrow's a pro player who been on TL for 4 years who posts more than most pros, is generally a good guy, and defending friends and countrymen who Eury randomly shat on because one guy didn't win a series. Not disturbing at all. Not all forum posters are equal. | ||

And building up a huge history of posting on TL will pretty much let everyone know whether that is the case or not. Not a big fan of fighting fire with fire on forums, but not as if I do not understand it. | ||

Maybe it is the pressure of being in EG and this is something that the EG management can look into. Maybe give some psychological training as well. The EG curse is similar to the satanic messages that one hears when one plays a popular song backwards. They only "exist" if you are aware and actively looking for them. In other words, it is a myth. Huk and Puma both had very strong showing after joining EG, and while both are now slumping, they have been on EG for nearly a year and had strong results for several months post-signing. JYP has actually improved since joining EG I feel, since he has made it back into Code S and was instrumental in helping Slayers-EG make the GSTL finals. I cannot say that I am a big fan of EG, but I think that many in the community give EG a lot more shit than they deserve. EG does a lot for the community, and I was really impressed and glad to see that they would take a risk in signing and developing Suppy, who had a solid showing at ASUS ROG. | ||
