If I'm not completely mistaken then he also has two accounts in the top 4 EU ladder, one with 70% win rate and one with 72%.
Lucifron is just a natural born talent regarding RTS-games. Add on to that his practicing discipline and you have a master

It's a bad day to be something else than terran.
Lucifron is the best end-of-WoL foreign terran. He prefered micro-intensive strategies so he might have gained more from the HotS transition than anyone else (same goes for Polt on NA).
Happy tears through the weekly cups and probably is most successful foreign HotS terran. Bly and Hasu do have a tough road ahead of themselves.

Game 1 was flawless from hasu, everyone makes mistakes now and then. Yeah really stop bashing him, hes top 10 on hots gm for a reason, he is much better then what he showed in game 2 and 3. Yeah I was more looking to bash Bly, since game 1 of that series showed how clueless he was, and that you can't say that he "deserved the invite" based on winning the two games where Hasu just completely messed up. This last series just showed how very far away Bly is from being a top player in EU. How good are you at this game?
You can still see and critique pros in every sport even if you are horrible in them yourself. You should however do it with respect since they are (howver bad they might be playing) a lot better then yourself.

Yeah, Rotterdam has hailed him as the biggest RTS-talent he knows, and he is pretty good friends with every foreigner in the scene. Wish he would go to Korea, though, but I think he is still taking some courses at his university.

You are on the ball here, which is more than I can say about your Swedish friend. Who the fuck goes online with the mindset of "Yeah, I was more looking to bash Bly..."?

I might be wrong, but I thought he was taking something. Anyway, if a talent like Lucifron decides to go to Korea, I think we actually could see something from a foreigner (I think the same about Scarlett, but she was unfortunate with her injury).

Hahahahaha, ToD recounting the infamous ToD vs. Happy game.

goddamn it, ToD casting a group with Lucifron, Happy, Hasu and Bly just made me so nostalgic about war3.

Random observer guy lagging. Chill get out!
