What the hell happened to these mediocre Terrans???

sKyHigh is on the rise for quite some time actually [ e. g. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2014_MSI_Beat_IT/South_Korean_Qualifier ], you shouldn't assume "mediocrity" simply because the player has less exposure

As we know, online results only sometimes translate to good offline results. With skyhigh, assuming anything else than mediocrity would be unintuitive

Oh, now I remember. It didn't really go viral though, did it? Did he do a video like PartinG?


No, he appealed on twitter and some other places iirc. He didn't make a video because he doesn't have as much swag/personality as Parting.

Please...


Warning pls


For the true words I need a warning? :D

Are you implying Soulkey, MarineKing, sKyHigh and INnoVation are bad? Lol


Nop, implying only MK and skyhigh, and partially Soulkey due to his recent results.

If they're "bad" then why/how did they qualify and advance?


Once a year some "random" guy qualified and u automatically call him as a good player? Strange french terms I feel :D


Not strange you just dont know a lot about Starcraft


How did u came to that conclusion? What if I got a different point of view and cheering for guys that opposit your favorits?

I agree to this point. To be honest I also counted SkyHigh as unlikely to make it. I was wrong. So yes you can say they're not favorites for a match, BUT just don't say they're nabs when they do make it through...


Okay, maybe I was also wrong, was hoping for Flash and SK to come out of this group, Classic still doesn't deserve, he's too much overrated. Todays results even proving that more. MK advanced and that's pretty refreshing at least, but skyhigh, I've played him some online tournament and lost 1-2, and now he's advancing from such hard group beating 2-0 flash in decider, I've gotta weird feeling.

Regular duckk here. Next we'll hear that he beat soO offracing and he faced MKP in platinum league.

Well, you know, players can get better (or worse) over time, and won't play the same way depending on the tournament they're playing in. The fact that sKyHigh is relatively unknown has nothing to do with the fact that he showed very good games today, beat a Code S champion from this year and beat Flash. If you want to evaluate his skill level, you'd be better off taking today's games as a measurement instead of his past achievements.

By definition new faces are more or less bound to eliminate "fan favorites" at one time or another. The "omg only lucky cheeser" of today is the "fan favorite" of tomorrow.

Wow. Soulkey 4-0-ing his group is really surprising for me. His recent results suggested, that he is in a slump, but maybe he will return to being one of the best zergs again. Classic not advancing isn't really big surprise for me, since his results are really unpredictible, sometimes.

sKyHigh is huge surprise for me. His results in ProLeague wasn't very good, and he hasn't played many individual tournaments this year. But i hope he can keep up and i wish him good luck in the rest of the tournament.

Nop, implying only MK and skyhigh, and partially Soulkey due to his recent results.

If they're "bad" then why/how did they qualify and advance?


Once a year some "random" guy qualified and u automatically call him as a good player? Strange french terms I feel :D


Not strange you just dont know a lot about Starcraft


How did u came to that conclusion? What if I got a different point of view and cheering for guys that opposit your favorits?

I agree to this point. To be honest I also counted SkyHigh as unlikely to make it. I was wrong. So yes you can say they're not favorites for a match, BUT just don't say they're nabs when they do make it through...


Okay, maybe I was also wrong, was hoping for Flash and SK to come out of this group, Classic still doesn't deserve, he's too much overrated. Todays results even proving that more. MK advanced and that's pretty refreshing at least, but skyhigh, I've played him some online tournament and lost 1-2, and now he's advancing from such hard group beating 2-0 flash in decider, I've gotta weird feeling.

Well, you know, players can get better (or worse) over time, and won't play the same way depending on the tournament they're playing in. The fact that sKyHigh is relatively unknown has nothing to do with the fact that he showed very good games today, beat a Code S champion from this year and beat Flash. If you want to evaluate his skill level, you'd be better off taking today's games as a measurement instead of his past achievements.


I get your point. Maybe I was a bit emotional which not happens often. New faces in our scene is always a good thing (but not when thay are eliminating fan favorits). :|

By definition new faces are more or less bound to eliminate "fan favorites" at one time or another. The "omg only lucky cheeser" of today is the "fan favorite" of tomorrow.

That's pretty much Flash.
