fixed ! :D


Yea because its not like Thorzain and Mana has won major tournaments in the last 6 months is it?. I said this for 6m onths the top EU players can compete with the koreans(-minus Stephano he dont count) and slowly the gap is closing. I don't think EU will never ever get equal to Korea since Korea got so many more pro players. But its for sure looked better in 2012 then 2011 in EU

it's not closing just an expected result if you throw 4 koreans in a 32 player tournament.

And I also remember Stephano being dominated by MKP and MMA at IPL 4. Funny how times have changed.


The gap is not closing. The best foreigners play at EGTL and they don't even get to play in Proleague and when they play the get smacked. Stephano is the only exception I think.


TLO would stand a chance. But huk and thorzain...

cause everyone knows, that it depens on the number of flips

So then it is 51% - 50%?
...


unless one side of the coin got a patch, then it gets 67-33%

So true xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

Which foreign protoss or terran consistently do well against koreans? I can't think of any, including Naniwa (consistently).

It's not even a surprise to see random foreign zergs knock out top koreans in zvz/ zvp (rarely in zvt). Look at the difference between SortOf's zvz and zvt at NASL4 finals. I think zvz is just a bad matchup

It's been two weeks. ThorZaiN and HuK aren't exactly the best examples either. ThorZaiN is a PL players wet dream considering he's the most predictable player out there, and HuK has been bad since.... ever.
