Archon Vortex vs Broodlord Infestor has to be the stupidest match up dynamic I've ever seen. Even Swarm Host Siege Tank stalemates are more fun to watch than that bull shit was. I dunno, I never really got the hang of the HotS units. Even when I play every now and then now I still avoid HotS units and die a lot. | ||

I will admit that European foreigners in particular have gotten pretty damn good at fighting the Koreans that most commonly show up in events like Hyun, Stardust and jjajki. But to think that Snute or Huk can go toe to toe with GSL Koreans consistently? I don't see it. With Bunny, Snute, and Scarlett doing as well as they have been, I think the day is closer than it has ever been. | ||

Foreigners overperform in tournaments like this where you can't prepare for opponents since they mostly play ladder and underperform in WCS and GSL. Same with Koreans who don't live in team houses and mostly ladder like Taeja. So it mostly just depends on the tournament. | ||

I'm not discrediting the fact that those guys have been playing pretty damn well. But are they as threatening as Naniwa, Huk, Jinro or Stephano ever were at their primes? To that I say no. The gap widened pretty significantly when WoL became HoTS. Is it narrowing again? Perhaps, but it's still pretty big. | ||
