i think we need 3 moar dreamhack events(no wcs point) where both koreans and foriengers can compete to see how terran players handle weekender bracket
outside of korean,they haven't been doing too well in this kind of bracket ever since maru got WESG cup which is quite weird cuz every terran got eliminated in tournament historically wasn't weak at weekender at all

I honestly think soO is actually a threat to Serral, he always has insane zvz. But yeah overall I'm sure he is very happy with all the Protoss players on his side of the bracket

insane ???? actually his zvz makes me sad....that guy needs to avoid zvz at all cost

What do you base this on? The only zvz series he's lost this year is 1 against Solar, he's won all the rest o_o

I haven't watched his zvz games lately so don't have a personal opinion but based on his results it should be stellar. Whats you basis for this?

The only point I'm trying to make is that Terran seems to be doing fine at the top level, even if Katowice has been lackluster.

How is IEM not the highest level? All the top Koreans and all the top foreigners were at this tourney.

And "lackluster" is a pretty kind way to describe one Terran making it to the ro12.

Even foreigners are doing better than terran with 2 qualified players, it says it all.


lol nice try

the two qualified foreigners are neeb, who was the first foreigner to win a premier tournament on korean soil, and serral, the reigning champion

not your two run of the mill foreigners

yeah I really have no idea what he is talking about, historically zvz has always been soO's best matchup and there is nothing to indicate that that has changed recently

The only way you could claim this is if you considered this IEM as not being "the top level", to which I pointed out that pretty much all the best players were at this tournament.

The fact that I have to spoon feed this to you is disappointing.

Yeah, I named Katowice as part of the top level and said it was "lackluster" for terrans. It is however, a single data point. Terrans are doing great in GSL (well represented this season, TvT final last season) so maybe the balance whine is premature. That's my point.

1. You did _not_ name IEM as part of the top-level. You said Terrans were doing fine at the top level even if Katowice was lackluster. The two things are not equivalent.
2. 6/16 Terrans in GSL (even representation is either 5 or 6) and 1/12 terrans in IEM is not by any stretch of the imagination "fine". It's either "too early to tell" or "bad".
