I think the only possible excuse is Maru isn't used to playing with Ping. Still, people act like Foreigners are tiers below top Koreans and minor ping or not, Maru got slapped hard which shouildn't have happened if a foreigner weren't right near their tier. Also, two top terrans, one of which is a god in all matchups and used to ping got slapped pretty hard.

It's not an excuse. Consider the number of things Terrans are (brutally) punished for in a battle if they carry these out late/not at all:

Burrowing Widow Mines
Sieging Liberators
Ghost Snipe(especially)
Tank pickup with Medivac
Splitting against Fungal/Banelings
Infantry pickup with Medivac

For Zerg, I can only think of 3: splitting against Widow Mines and failing to use Corrosive Biles on Tanks/Liberators and not using Fungal Growth before Infestors die. But when the vast majority of your army (Zerglings, Banelings, Ultralisks, Corruptors) are simply a-move units, the burden of micro is much lower than Terran's. Hence ping is an extremely important issue, not just for all races but for Terran especially

All this talk about lag has been silly for 6 years already. You will not solve anything. If you aren´t convinced, just wait for Nerchio to win Kespa Cup and Blizzcon

Are people really trying to make excuses for Nerchio winning? Top tier foreigners taking maps off of top tier Koreans isn't that shocking. Snute beat the reigning GSL and SSL champs back to back at some IEM didn't he? No reason why Nerchio couldn't do it BO1's either.

For someone who is so absurdly sloppy (losing 3 lings to delayed reaper, poor creep spread, poor injects) Nerchio must be doing some things right XD

Wish he would stop being so lazy

I think those storms did more damage to his own zealots than nerchio's army.

Any foreign win must be due to unfortunate circumstances from the korean player /s

Or that Maru and Byun both played exactly into his style. Most likely wouldn't happen again. Foreigners ARE tiers below Koreans, with the exception possibly of Nerchio which we knew anyway. Don't understand how you're still harping on about this everywhere when we've had nothing to prove otherwise.

Amazing how a Bo1 win for Nerchio proves Koreans aren't that godly, yet Neeb getting trashed in a Bo1 means nothing. Double standards.

Comes back to tl after a few months, see the same boring arguments. Fun times. At least the games are decent.

Stop trying to make sense, clearly the koreans were trolling and foreigners all suck

I hope you had a good hard look at the way you treat your fellow TLers whilst you were banned. Now you can be a model citizen.

Just because Nerchio got lucky doesn't mean Poland has any other player who is decent agains Koreans sometimes.


sarcasm - do you know it?

Yes, but him trying to say Poland as a whole was beyond region lock or something instead of Nerchio made too little sense even as a joke.
why even
