soO: "...I'm working really hard."
Me: Seriously?

The worst series I have seen from soO. Absolutely horrible. His 6 choked finals are 1000x better this. It is harsh to say but I miss soO pre-IEM win so badly. I thought that win will break the curse. I think it just replaces that curse with a new and worse one. Now soO will become GSL Ro32 filler.

Yesterday I still said TIME is a bit overrated. Either he is a god or I didn't realize how far soO has fallen since IEM. Either way I apologize.

Super happy for TIME and China!

WOW my prediction (and I think most people's) has been way off so far. GVW this year has been one hell of a ride.

It's unfortunate that I don't think trap ever loses to heromarine, would have been sick to have 4/4 foreigners

From what I hear in the interviews Showtime seems to be the better English speaker tbh.

It's not a Code S match though.

How is Elazer ZvT? TIME is looking really good. I hope their series are as the ones we've seen so far. TIME/SoO was a 3-0 but it was still very entertaining.

Why do you think soO's good currently? What recent results did I miss?

He didn't say soO "isn't good" he said soO is bad. soO being a bad starcraft pro will never be true.

I never get why some people think only top 12 players in the world is "good" and the rest are "bad". Sure soO isn't among the best in the world atm, doesn't mean he is bad or not good or that he shouldn't have a chance against Time.

now you're running your mouth but when the discussion comes again to remove region lock you're suddenly against it for some reason

Obviously im joking, and as for the region lock, you're confusing me with someone else, again.

Neeb. Reynor, Special, Showtime, Elazer and Scarlett have good chance against most Korean pros.

Serral out shined everyone this year, so we kinda brush over the other results, but we had a Neeb top4 finish and lots of series won by some of the others.

If the WCS/Blizzcon shown us anything, it s that foreigner ZvZ is better, EU zergs were biting at Serral's heels for months, but the undisputed best 2 korean zergs looked lost. Or at least Dark did.

EDIT: lol, this quote aged well. Thread relevant at least

TIME's rally was on the depot with 2 libs and at least 1 tank. Attacking there was extremely inefficient.
