It was a one point with Stephano imo.


Ehhh.


It was.


That was because the game hadn't matured yet. The later Naniwa/Scarlett/Snute accomplishments are more impressive than Mr 200/200 Roach into BL/Infestor (which isn't to say that Stephano was totally terrible)


That's not counterargument. Besides, the game matured with stephano. He was both at korean skill level and innovated the game at the same time.


Nah, not at all

Ehhh.

then he went to Korea and lost to a marine all-in from Bogus. Great day it was.

More satisfying than winning gsl for me.
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Honestly I feel like having good coaches really makes a big difference. I felt like your results really improved overall after your stint with Coach Park.

It's also a feature shown in other e-sports like LoL and CS:GO often times good coaches coming to new teams brings out the potential in a team's roster.


There are good coaches in CS:GO? I don't think so (I've played over 2k hours and watched years of cs since 1.6)

From my experience the only real good coaches I know of in esports are the Korean Broodwar Coaches and Some of the newer LoL coaches (also generally Korean.) Most of the lol coaches in lcs that I've seen seem a bit immature to be honest.

Stephano didn't close the gap he simply stopped being something classified as a foreigner


It was not at a relevant period, but Jinro used to be at the same level as the Korean he fought against. Two top 4 GSL.
SC2 is the best game to watch and was the best to play before I grew old and slow...

start a PL type offline tournament in germany and france?

Honestly a Proleague type thing with foreign teams might not be such a bad idea.

With players living in United States, Russia, France, Mexico, etc I don't see how it's doable.

Honestly, if they really want to become as good as the Koreans, they'll have to be ready to make concessions and live together. And then have one teamleague in EU and one in NA and finish it at the global finals.

yeah and then he disappointed in GSL which is like the final test. however, I think sending foreigners to korea and let them fight in the fierce competition there should help individual people. to improve foreign level in general, let koreans come to foreignland and have fun. and don't cry if they win WCS titles then.

then he went to Korea and lost to a marine all-in from Bogus. Great day it was.

it was hellions, no? bunch of 2fac hellion allins, that sick game on whirlwind. Oh and a 2rax? 4-1, with stephano taking akilon and INnoVation giving up on 200/200 because Stephano reached BL/Infestor?

wasn't there a game on Whirlwind where Bogus rallied like 4rax marine from 2 bases 2 pixels above Stephano's overlord sight and Stephano just died?

this is pointless

we lack the culture of esport that korean have

take a look at NA LCS and EU LCS on league of legends, they all play offline at the same area and they still get wreck by korean and china
