Or they just don't care because they have their Ro16 groups next week (which are worth more money and WCS points). I always expected that we'd have weird results because of that scheduling but this is beyond even my most cynical expectations.


They don't care about a tournament that has a decent prize pool, that stakes their national pride, and that takes place on their home turf? Please graduate school, kid. I worry about your future prospects.

Seriously. Fuck you Stats! How dare you 3-0 Maru and then lose like that. If you had just targetted the stupid Prism in game 2 you would be up 2-0.

What a joke. I honestly feel like he just trolled the whole tournament.


Kid, you need to go into the corner, and then have some nap time to cool off. Think about what your junior high school classmates would think of you if they read your raging post.


I'd tell them to go watch Football and yell about the refs some more.


LOL. Tigon_ridge what would they think of you raging at Vindicare605 on a gaming forum?

Epic! I love it when micro makes the difference, that was sick!

i suggest watching some war3


The problem with Warcraft 3 is that it takes 3 hours to resolve any battle (hence the name of the game, I assume!).

as much as i love war3 (i played somewhat competitively for about 6 years and watched like a maniac for even longer), i somewhat have to agree after having spent a few years with sc2. it does feel really slow now. but that's part of the appeal too.

Warcraft 3 battles are like a tantric sex session whereas SC2 ones are managing to frantically bang in the duration of an elevator journey.

this post makes me wanna go back to war3 and only go for sc2 when i really need it badly right then and there

Tons of people going back to wc3, join us! The growing scene is really fun, although the people playing ladder seem even more toxic lol

not until i truly see the reforged night elf

I hope my beloved Nelves aren’t too attractive in HD form or I’ll have to play OG WC3

That aside I’m forever cursed to pick the race I find cool and like from day 1 that turns out to be the one that gets most salt and ladder, Nelf and Protoss mining that salt.

Koreans were better because they had a better work environment, which is no longer the case. They were not blessed by an MMORPG-like racial trait which made them gosu. Properly competing against them now is to be expected and not really surprising nor amazing.

People are acting like Neeb is some scrub when the fact of the matter is that he once came to Korea and won a gsl premier tournament

He’s not a regular foreigner

Even the LR is about people wanting to play WC3. This is a depressing day for sc2.

Nah, region lock surely wasn't the main reason.
But I already knew results like this are gonna happen the moment Kespa teams disbanded. Surprised that so many people seem so amazed seeing foreigners win.
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

Honestly, I'd like to chalk this tournament to being like an anomaly but I don't remember if there has ever been an international tournament in the past few years where the foreigners consistently beat the Koreans.

I wholeheartedly agree, should be reportable....

yeah it's just that he hasn't done anything super big in a while but class is permanent, it seems.

Or...maybe these are just outliers? Remember that time Serral got 0-3 (or was it 1-3?) by Classic, and then later swept him utterly in a rematch?
