id argue nerchio neeb or one of the terrans over true

I'd rate TRUE higher than any foreign pro. I'm ready to bet 50 bucks that TRUE won't lose to any pro in a Bo21 series.


i mean bo21 is unlikely to happen so lets stay on bo5 - bo7s shall we :D

TRUE definetly has strong zvp and zvz but idk his zvt is shaky ever since he came to us

Amusing bet. No way to verify it, so it's pretty hollow too. TRUE's never defeated Neeb for one.

The idea behind the bo21 is that a single bo5 or a single bo7 does not indicate the better player. Only numerous games over a period of time determine that.

But what I originally wanted to say is that I think that pretty much any Korean is going to win over foreigners and be the favourite in the current system. They are peak players. Very few highly skilled players cannot create a good environment for foreigners to improve .

No need to derail the discussion like that. I'm just stating my opinion and trying to argue for it, I'm not saying it's the god-tier knowledge bomb that you guys missed all life.

The idea behind the bo21 is that preparing for a series is cheating, and that your wins aren't as legitimate as doing a ladder macro build 21 times.

That's also wrong. Koreans outside Korea are nothing more than people who chase the easier competition.

Most foreigners that go to Korea come out looking worse tbf.

At first


And later too.

Not really. He has a chance, but he isn't a top Korean.

No not later too, look at Harstem for instance


He did win a few tournaments, but still drops maps all over the place against weak opponents. I don't think his form is any better than before he went to Korea. There are some players that have improved like HuK or Scarlett, but many more who came out worse than before like Stephano or Thorzain.
