Not sure if I should be laughing at this as a troll or if you really mean it. Chinese are better than all the non-Koreans without exception ? Must be some super-hero Chinese players that I've never seen before . . . but I just checked the bracket here, and I don't see any Chinese players that can support your hilariously outlandish claim. Must be a troll. P.S. Hendralisk 2-1 over Loner first round. | ||

Yes Loner lost to Hendralisk but these are BO3s. | ||

The cast feels a lot less awkward than it is with Axeltoss/Axslav. | ||

Bails over DemonSheep Xenocider over Ian Hendralisk over Loner I agree that there are some amazing Chinese players, but as a whole the China/Taiwan players don't seem to be dominating NA like Koreans have. | ||

However, your statement seems pretty far off the mark from what I've seen. Chinese players are about on par with the foreigners, just as we are seeing with the current results. This is the way it's been now for a long time. I'd go further and say that against the foreigners in American and European Premier league, most of the Chinese would be outclassed. | ||

Devil's advocate here, Demuslim seems to only lose TvT to Byun, it's rare to see him lose to any other Terrans on his stream. Like, ever. | ||

While the statement might be true (I'd say his TvZ is strongest and TvT weakest), games vs a Code S level player isn't a good measurement for how solid his TvT is. | ||

The top handful of Chinese are right up there with Stephano, Naniwa, Snute, Scarlett, Lucifron etc. We just never get to see them. | ||

I don't think anyone's been saying the Taiwanese players were leagues better than the NA ones, just the Chinese (the Taiwanese and Chinese scenes are very separated). It was mostly due to how the Chinese players that did make it into the WCS NA premier league qualifier made it the furthest out of all the non-Koreans -- the only non-Korean, non-Chinese who made to the last round was Demuslim. | ||

A lot of the strongest NA players already were invited to premier. | ||

So you are basing the entire Chinese sc2 scene on Top, Macsed, and Comm. Okay then. | ||

I'm not even being sarcastic. Edit: I'm basing the entire Chinese scene on those guys because they are essentially the entire Chinese scene. There aren't very many Chinese SC2 pro-gamers. | ||
