WCS America final eight is a lot more exciting than Europe's. Two Chinese, Scarlett, and then EG/Liquid/Polt Koreans.


I like how its more exciting because they are chinese and koreans. Well Polt did get his name written out so good for him. Europe didnt let enough koreans out for your taste, sad to hear you feel that why. If you care more about storylines than nationalities I think you can find WCS EU pretty exciting.

I don't think Alicia was in on it but still Crank's done a major disservice to his sponsors, those who would've played in his place (Huk/TheStC) and the fans loyal enough to be watching. An example needs to be made of Crank and a ban, at least from WCS, is warranted.

As a contrast, you can see in team kills like the recent Rain vs Fantasy OSL match that true pro's understand the importance of maintaining team/player/tourney integrity and fan-service.


The cant have actually seen the Rain vs Fantasy games if you describe them like that. Game 1 between them was the worst throw ive seen in a while. And it was so funny because everybody was talking about it and fantasy goes ahead and playes with his feet or something.

After watching the Crank vs. Alicia game, I think it is good they are both out in the end. So at least no real damage has been done by throwing the games.

Lol what a stupid thing to say. What does "true pro" even mean? I guess one of BW's bonjwas wasn't a "true pro" either. Also, I'm not saying that Fantasy threw, but there's no evidence that he didn't throw either (and it's not like that series was anything but mediocre, so I don't know what you mean by "fan-service"). The people organizing the OSL shouldn't have even let that situation happen in the first place. I personally give the benefit of doubt to Rain and Fantasy because I believe in their integrity as players, but I find it funny that you're talking like you're 100% certain of things.

Crank's statement on twitter:
http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1rlqkmf
I didn't say how my mind is going recently. I lost all matches recently except STC HuK. My neck has 2 nerve damages. I only said I could not practice because of neck pain, but my situation was much harder. I couldn't feel confident cuz of I couldn't practice as much as I can and felt like I can't recover like GanZi. My match vs Alicia is kind of all in play. If my opponent difended my rush I can't win even fi I killed many probes, I couldn't know how much I killed. Many people are telling me I should have won but if every situation is going to be kinda bad for me how can I feel confident and play so well? Sorry to make you guys to be confused. I couldn't guess how my game was going exactly. I just thought these games were going to be like practice games. I just guess I was losing.

This was posted earlier in this thread, but it's buried back in page 43. I think it should be added to the OP, so people stop saying stuff like this

Polt isnt really American though...

Hes a korean on a Taiwan Team, who has spent half a year in the US

even VIOLET has spent as much time if not more in the US than Polt, so is VIOLET an American? (yes Polt is a student, and Violet was just chilling there but still Violet was basically in US about the same if not more)


cheer for yet another Korean to win WCS NA? or cheer for the ACTUAL foreigners: Scarlett, Jim, Macsed....


BTW, Terry the Intern kept saying koreans are wanting Polt to win, and beat the foreigners, Jim, etc

why would that be? why they want Polt vs foreigners? cause Koreans know Polt isnt American, they want Korean Polt to not lose to foreigners

just sayin'

I'm pretty sure Polt isn't on a Taiwanese team, but instead in a personal sponsorship with CMStorm.

Taiwan tag, clan, sponsor, in front of his name CMSTORMPolt, repping Taiwan
