oh yeah. after re-reading your post i get what you mean. thanks for the info. for some reason i thought i had heard Artosis say it in the way i tried to describe and since he's been living in Korea for like 5 years he probably knows how Koreans pronounce stuff.
kinda embarassing i've been studying english for almost three years and still suck at phonetics. i'm having a really hard time trying to describe all these sounds t.t

Strelok still at 0 armor! :o

I think this is a weak argument. But alright, i'll play along - name 10 european pros who could win games regularly in GSTL.

fwiw I got it wrong the first time, it's the sound english has in "plus", not in "dog" ^^'

Actually finale didn't qualify for Code A through offline qualifiers but EWM: so a ~64 Code B players insane bracket, and then a ro8 made of the 8 winners from each qualifier

HappyZerg also got to the finals of the qualifier he played in.
When a player like Deathangel can make the finals twice, I think there are a lot of foreigners who could make Code A if they tried often enough and came there in large enough numbers.

This conversation is so stupid. The fact of the matter is Tails haven't been able to qualify to the EU premier league. This is a fact rest is just speculation

B-Teamers are qualifying for Code A through sheer numbers. But you don't see me making sweeping statement that B-Teamers are better than say ZerO, or Stats who are consistently winning in PL. Otherwise those guys would be playing.
