I wish there was a WCS Signature series video for every player. At this point we know almost everything about ByuN and his personal life. But what do we know about Stats? Is his family supportive? Did he ever think about quitting the progamer life? He spent his entire career on KT, what does the end of Proleague mean to him?

Inb4 "It's also foolish to judge their competitiveness on a couple of bo3s"

at this point i've been told not draw any conclusions from any starcraft game ever so idk anymore

The point is that we didn't see foreigners get stomped universally. We saw Showtime advance first out of a group with Byun and Dear, we saw Elazer and Nerchio beat SSL champ Solar, Neeb has already proven that he can compete with the best and showed that again this tournament. On the whole this tournament showed that foreigners can compete against the best Koreans; they might not be able to win the whole thing but they can be competitive. And with a lucky draw, they could even win. If that's the progress in one year, then next year looks like things will be close to even -- especially if SC2 in Korea keeps crumbling.

So? There always were foreigners who could compete against top koreans based on matchup, etc.


Yeh that's the stuchiu myth. He loves to bring up his Snute example despite Snute losing 6-7 straight bo3s/bo5s before/after his two wins over Classic/Rain (in bo3s).

From 2013-2015 there was never a time where foreigners would consistently be competitive against good koreans.

Yes, but never on this scale.

What scale are we talking about here exactly? Do we still have the same amount of top tier koreans?
I stay by what i have said, foreigners got better (the scene as a whole) but koreans also got worse (the scene as a whole)
Compared to 2014 that is

Still remember back when HoTS released and Innovation was crushing zergs left and right, hopefully Byun can show me that in the finals tonight.

Honestly I can see Byun getting a 3-0 in less than 30 minutes as well here

Maybe they can extend the finals to bo19 then

exactly, so to further clarify, the word "Tod" in German is pronounced with a long "oh" sound.

I mean at least there's one thing we know about Classic - he has the hots for Hyungkyung.
