So........nothing going according to expectations today.

soO winning was pretty expected

didn't you hear? Neeb is the best player in the world

he won 3 WCS's back to back, show me a korean who did the same

it wasn't back to back, Elazer won one between.
Polt won 4 harder WCS events


It is pretty ridiculous to claim Neeb is better than Polt was. But at the same time, one best of 3 does not take away from what Neeb has accomplished. I would not say that Neeb beating Rogue invalidates Rogue as possibly the best player in the world right now or that Major beating TY makes TY not significantly better than Major.

ofc bo3 allows for a lot of upsets.
I just find it ridicolous that people are treating Neeb as a top 3 player based on 1 bo3 against Rogue and on his WCS wins which every above average korean would have won.


I haven't been following LotV, and only been hearing all this talk about how Neeb is. Has Neeb been competing in Code S, and how has he done there?

he didnt get through the qualifiers, lost 2 times to Hurricane who later knocked Scarlett out :D

Is there anyone that doesn't miss Polt?

there are quite a few who think he's arrogant, and who was just an average korean terran who was lucky to have a visa, etc

Polt was definitely better than average, but I wouldn't call him one of the best Terrans.

he tried this year in S3 and got knocked out in the qualifiers by Hurricane


Oh okay. Seems a bit like an overstatement from Artosis to call him the best foreigner there has ever been then, if he hasn't even managed to qualify for the most competitive tournament.


He won the Kespa cup though which was in Korea.

There are arguments for everything

Polt was definitely better than average, but I wouldn't call him one of the best Terrans.

he definitely doesn't hold a candle to innovation, ty

but i personally find his playstyle interesting to watch even though people found it sloppy and simply un-pristine, and was wondering if anybody else did and missed his presence in blizzcon, etc

I'm pretty sure you can't call Neeb anything other than the best foreigner unless you want to go down the SC2 isn't competitive now everyone sucks route.

To be fair, I dislike Polt less than gumifail & ByuN. There, I said it.

Neeb even failed to qualify for one of the WCS events, and had to go through the open bracket.

Zest also failed to qualify for the GSL Neeb lost to Hurricane in the qualifier for.

There is definitely an argument for that considering that out of the 4 WCS events, only 12 differents players got to the ro8.

That was back in 2010 / early 2011, when he mentioned that he thought he could beat Jinro in the GSL, and then lost to him.
