Disappointing to see such a talented player go out of a tournament like this so early.


He didn't move to America for his SC2 career, he's going to school there.


Yeah, I don't see why he would regret it just because of SC2. I'm sure he knew going to school would cut into his ability to win SC2 tournaments.

no but it gives points towards WCS, but it is not a direct WCS tournament. And there are plenty of good koreans.


The Korean lineup is pretty underwhelming. There's some great Koreans here sure but there's a fuck load not here, namely all the Kespa ones plus Life, Taeja and Symbol,


Well whine against their teams that they need to send them out to Dreamhack next time

Give Polt a break it can happen for everyone. Starcraft 2 is not black and white alot of shit can happen.

People forget that Polt moved to the US partially because of studies...you know so that he can actually have another reliable source of income once SC2 stops being profitable for him?

The reliable source of income is speaking English?^^


For a Korean? Definitely!

You do know Kespa have an exclusivity deal with MLG involving foreign tournaments, don't you?

Meaning a good bunch of european players are arround maybe Code A lvl in korea wich is in a way a progression and not the huge gap most peope talk about


Okay? The huge gap is for the top tier Koreans like Life. The best Koreans here, Gumi and Leenock, are pretty much dismantling everything, and Leenock hasn't dropped a map. Obviously out of the millions of people who play SC outside of Korea, some would do okay in Code A.

Foreigners got absolutely raped at MLG, completely decimated.

They can't be both Code A level and completely outclassed.

Who'd have thought Gumiho and Kas would be the last Terrans standing in the Ro16 already.

lol @ the europeans and americans trying to downplay the achievements of other euros and americans in this tournament. try to be proud of your own guys for once. the achievement isn't that naniwa and stephano & co went further than mc & polt & hero & forgg, it's that those koreans didn't even make the 2nd day of the tournament. they got outclassed.
