ok

the absence of capitalization, the korean instead of foreigner that was probably why the quote was made and the complete incongruity of any comparison between Rain and Harstem would have kept me from getting that forever. I was like, "well, maybe korean rain is hot and unpleasant, does he mean that Harstem is hot and unpleasant ?".

Didn't you follow this thread ? Rain is a cheeser

I'm going to assume that is some meme that came about while I was asleep.

Rain did become cheesy towards the end of his career, when P just couldn't be played the way he (and I) liked to play anymore. I wanted to hate him for that but I couldn't, I worship Rain too much. And after all, he's here to win, not to please anyone.

He became more cheesy, yes, but if anyone says "Player X plays like Rain," cheese is NOT what comes to mind. Defensive macro play is what he made his name with and what he will always be remembered for.

Rain doesn't even lose to foreigners. He's 29-3 in matches all-time offline, with his 3 losses being - vs Snute in Shenzhen, vs Lilbow in HSC, and.. vs BabyKnight in the WCS WC 2012. BabyKnight the GOAT.

depends. If Parkson started to follow sc2 around the end of HotS, his statement makes sense.

Holy shit, Gumiho lost to Zest?

I just got here and didn't bother to check the bracket because I assumed Gumiho won for sure.
