Oh man.. Did you see those games at least? don't tell me who won, I just want you to know that Titan vs Scarlett was a BO win battle that she almost got through by playing really fucking great. vs TLO was just a horrible performance, a really off performance that doesn't say anything about her current play.

Agreed entirely. You see her play in the EG MCS and it's very underwhelming. Losing to Titan and TLO

She beat Hero and slivko in the RSL.
She is neither winning everything vs non-NA players nor losing.
Almost every zerg is using heavy infestor/ling into broods.

Just don't judge much on one game vs fucking Gumiho and let her play some more.
I agree that NA only isnt a great base to evaluate a player.

I mean she also beat sLivko and Hero recently, two players better in those respective races. As a big fan I do believe she plays somewhat one-dimensional against terrans though and when she plays Korean terrans it becomes obvious. She needs more experience against high level terran play.

She beat Bumblebeeprime (who's that? don't ask me) at IPTL, and beat some NA players to win WCS (over 100 Koreans could do this and so could dozens of Europeans), and is suddenly hyped to be one of the best foreign Zergs. Her play is frankly underwhelming and I wish people would stop hyping her up so much and just enjoy her games because they are going to find themselves disappointed.

Wow so many votes for Acer, guess its to be expected at this point from foreign fans...

One does not simply beat the defending GSTL champions. Seems like FXO can climb their way into the premier league quite easily as expected, and without using Leenock too (atleast I'm assuming they haven't used him in this yet, dunno). Sad no Choya all-kill today though.

She won WCS NA not just beating but destroying all the best players in NA without losing a map. She played amazing for Acer at the last IPTL. Creator, fucking Creator called her one of the only foreign players that can compete with koreans. The hype is justified at least for now. She needs more experience and I think she can compete with not just the best foreign players but Koreans as well.

Game 3 against Titan though she got absolutely crushed. And honestly, top end pros shouldn't be losing to TLO these days.

As expected. I'm surprised they even used Gumiho. Should've sent out another B-teamer to get some experience.

Sometimes b teamers are a good idea but not in this case, It's one thing to be confident but another to be arrogant. You must give scarlett/nerchio the respect they deserve, gumiho/leenock are the players we would use in any situation like this
