Is this confusing in some way? EDIT: Oh, I getcha. Yeah, that's just how it works in Starcraft. It doesn't matter where the event is, who's running it, or who's casting it. If you're not Korean, you're a foreigner in a Starcraft tournament. I remember Jinro mentioning fairly recently that in MMA fighting, it's the same way, only instead of Korea, it's Thailand. | ||

And Jaedong vs Snute was so intense, the most epic hold ever from Jaedong in game 5! Sick games, go Jaedong! Edit: Snute giving autographs to the fans after his loss was a great moment, nothing but respect to him, such a baller in every way. | ||

In philosophy there's a term for this. I know it in Swedish, but what is it in English? "Meaning that is sliding away?" | ||

GSL championships equal a ton of preparation too... pretty much 50/50 skill/preparation... while foreign tournaments with multiple rounds a day or 1 round each day are more like 90% skill... and there is noone better than Taeja at that! Im still convinced he is the most skilled player in the world, and obviously best terran... just not that good at preparation... even tho he did get to Ro8 in GSL with bad wrist... Maru and those, they prepare for each opponent, throwing cheeses prepared for certain maps against certain opponents... while taeja pretty much always plays straight up and relies on his pure skill to beat people... no matter what they throw at him | ||
