bo5. The drinking contest decides who starts up 1-0, and then they play drunk. | ||

I have been ever since SC2gears in WoL and you'd be surprised by the results. A couple years ago I was gonna make a big reddit post about it but things came up. Just to give you an example, in one of the Korean dominated MLGs. Koreans hit 200+ EPM 47 times. Foreigners hit it twice, and they were both Major. Players have gotten faster now, but the only foreign Terran that consistently hits 200+ EPM was Major. 200 being the "threshold" to be a great Terran I discovered but that line has moved move towards 220 now. For comparison, in game 1 of IEM Shanghai between Dark vs TY, TY had 258 EPM and Dark 220 EPM. A replay doesn't exist of a foreign Terran with 250 EPM. | ||

How does EPM compare between foreign and Korean zergs? And are there relatively bad pros that have very high EPM? | ||

That basically confirms terran is the hardest race mechanically hence the hardest race? Since everyone can think but not everyone can think and execute quickly | ||

Also... yeah 5-0 not gonna happen. | ||

Players like Snute, Scarlett, Elazer, and Serral are on par, maybe a few pts below on average, with Top Tier Koreans, though a few outliers exist such as Losira who are faster on average. TLO hovers around 190-200. Nerchio is an anamoly, finding success with 160-180 epm, but we see the dividends from his poor creep spread.' The highest EPM average from a player I ever studied was Yoda, consistently 260+, but he did not have a very successful career before he retired. Golden also was very fast. Foreignerwise, Marinelord was over 200 EPM on many occassions, but didn't have much success. | ||
