Its certainly helpful, SC2 skill isn’t just pure hand speed though

Also why are they talking so frequently about Katowice as if it’s just a qualifier for this World Cup event?


I dunno, but if this World Cup event has the same latency problem as last year I'm gonan treat it with the same disdain I treated the last one.

Katowice for whatever else its flaws are doesn't have that glaring of a technical problem overshadowing the entire thing.

The worst one for world championships I can remember was the 2014 Blizzcon that Life won.

Saved the best match of the Ro16 for last.... maybe. Clem vs Solar was a banger.

Isn't that the year, Inno got stuck in his box for 40 minutes of endless technical delay? Those camera shot still haunt me

Also Classic lost vs MMA in another endless technical difficulties. I was sure Classic would've won without being constantly delayed.

I don’t think people really believe this is the highest skilled era


I mean there has never been a player as fast in any RTS game in terms of mouse precision and camera movement as Clem right now. This is fairly obvious by watching his FPV. His ability to click to move to one part of the map, click very accurately and instanelously and go back to another part of the map is out of this world.

Some people do apparently as I hear this being repeated quite often


Well you previously argued 2013 was better than 2016 which is better than today right? So 2013 players would easily stomp any players in today's age. Like if 2016 was bad, 2024 must be infinitively much worse. I guess master league in 2013 would be high GM's in today's age based on your logic that players get worse over time.

I think if you tried to make this same claim in the BW section of this site you'd get laughed at.

I want to cheer for herO but I just don't believe he can go the distance. I think Cure if he gets past herO can maybe.

Aren't you the guy that was 100% certain that MarineKing matchfixed? Why was he deemed innocent by the police afterwards then?

Clem is strong and fast, but prime INno or prime Maru were more mechanically sound imo

The skill is way higher now at the top, the scene has hollowed out a bit and clearly the Koreans are relatively less good, less speedy compared to the rest of the scene than they were.

Also the korean scene is all old timers so they are of course going to slow over time, but that doesn't mean they are less skilled. If speed was the only thing that mattered then Reynor wouldn't be out in the group stage.

I could maybe support an argument that the korean scene is less skilled than a few years ago but what they have lost has been more than made up for by players outside of korea.

Cure looks pretty dead.

This casting about herO addicted to forward blinking is hilarious.

herO's adding immortals instead of disruptors, i think this is a good choice given how many marauders Cure builds.

When herO is investing heavy into Oracles and Collosus and you don't make Vikings... it's a choice.
