I get really tired of the " lol koreans who play in wcs am/eu ran away from GSL because they couldn't handle the competition " people on this site so when AM crushes KR like this it makes me happy

the most elitist of all elitists


Doesn't change anything . WCS Korea is still worlds apart the other WCS qualifiers in terms of difficulty . Doesn't matter if Korea region representatives played badly .


It's not worlds apart, especially in the later stages of the tournament. top 4 of WCS AM is nearly just as good(as shown by this tournament) as maru/inno/bomber/rain


I'm pretty sure if this event took place in Korea, WCS Korea reps would do a lot better considering that they aren't used to traveling.


probably true, but a home field advantage isn't something you should be relying on to win.

mvp has won 2 premier tournaments in NA, 2 in EU and 5 in Korea


The point isn't homefield advantage. Most of the WCS NA and EU koreans also reside in Korea. What sets them apart is that they are used to traveling, especially Jaedong who's been going to pretty much every European tournament lately. If we talk purely about ability WCS Koreans are going to be on average better. They also aren't used weekend tournament style of play, considering that all tournaments in Korea happen with long downtime for preparation in between matches.

MVP has substantially more travel experience than people like Rain, Innovation, Soulkey, etc. So obviously he's going to play better and also his most recent win in EU was against subpar competition.

Just look at Leenock. He wrecks foreign tournaments, but can't even make it into code S in Korea? Why do you think that is. It's because his skill ceiling isn't as high, but he able to tap into more of his potential on the road than other Koreans can because he's so used to traveling.


like I said before, probably true. But if you're a really good player you can overcome all of that.

SCV pull was smart, taeja had no tanks left, if bomber could get the contain tighter it was over.

His bio play won him out. Clearly mech play is not Taeja's cup of tea.
