Dislike korean domination? Why? They have been producing the best players for 15 years, it's not like any surprise or so that even the exiled, bad, non-GSL-qualified koreans are better than foreigners

To be honest.. Saying that a player is still in it after just losing 38 drones because his creep spread is good... Doesn't require a progamer to realise that such things are pretty much game enders.


Ret has become what he has most feared. A hype caster.

Well, I still haven't seen/heard a caster that doesn't have this tendency. Also, by saying things like this, they avoid being "wrong" by saying things like: "Snute is NEVER gonna come back from this" (in case a miracle actually occurs).


They could give MMA credit for the lead that he has though and go the "Can we see Snute to the impossible and come back from this psoition!"-route rather than the "I'ts still a close game and anyone can take it!"-idea that most casters go with for the, as you say, chance of avoiding being dead wrong on a game over call.

Exactly, that would be nice rather than the white lies about the actual state of the game (in this case, Snute being pwned after hellion BBQ).

Artosis tends to call things as they are if I'm not mistaken. A player like mma is not gonna go full foreigner and give away an advantage like that.

Apparently this game isn't called Starcraft 2 Heart of the Swarm for foreigner fans.
It is called Korea vs the World.
Korean players practicing hard and showing great skill on stream is bad for the game somehow.
And every mistake Korean makes is a huge/unforgivable blunder while anything foreigner does is the most genius move ever that is going to revolutionize the game.

Artosis' hype is mainly outside the game.

I think what MMA and jjakji did on the span of last 2 days was crossing a big, red line between Korea and the rest of the world

The big red line was always there, the actions from the last 2 days don't change much about that. It's just so frustating to watch, that Vortix and Snute were 4-0 in series against MMA and Jjakji during Vasacast and WCS ro16 and now suddenly that happened. The power of good preparation I guess.


Exactly. It was really confusing to me that people were actually calling Snute and Vortix favorites just because of a few Vasacast and Ro16 games... MMA and Jjajki are super elite players that turn up even more when given time to prepare for a single opponent


Their logic was blinded by their hope.




Hopefully Welmu puts up a better fight

So two former GSL champions, of whom one left GSL, while he was in the current ro8 are exiled, bad and non-GSL qualified (espicially "non-GSL-qualified is hillarious, since Jjakji gave up a Code S seed to change regions)? What are you trying to achieve with post like this? Just annoy people?

I disagree, I don't care what the race of the player is (Unless Canadian), I just want to see the best player win and have entertaining games.
