It's just plainly ignorant to think otherwise, there will be a few players who can play up to their level but a majority of them won't be able to. If Catz, drewbie, etc play bo5 or 7 showmatch against the top Koreans and win I'll say they're good. Until then, they will always be average.
Ummm when was the last time Idra won a Bo5+ against a top Korean... pretty sure he was knocked out by jinro in last GSL and previous GSLs didn't make it far enough to play in anything bigger than Bo3. I may be wrong though.
well to be honest.. only drewbie and kiwikaki is good... since qxc left.... kitty is getting better but still, only 2 good players.. i heard that sun guy even got taken out by some no name??

Yesterday we got some great footage of SC2 unit impressions that will be edited together and put up soon. My personal favorite was a guy who obliged me by hopping around in all fours like a zergling. Today we're getting into the real interviews, so they're not up yet, but stay tuned! Thanks for asking. I'll be sure to ask idra what he REALLY thinks of ROOT so you can hear it from his mouth.
So MLG just finished. As people had posted here earlier, as expected, KiwiKaki did very well (congrats!!) but the rest of ROOT not so much. CatZ, can we get a response?
i love when idra said in that interview hes scared of any good protoss players and he only mentioned kiwikaki and naniwa. He really doesnt like HuK does he? and that was before huk 2-1 him

First of all, I am no CatZ, I am just a random avarage ROOT supporter. But here is my response.
Let's take a look of the top 3 players of ROOT. As mentioned and recognized, KiWiKaKi finished 2nd. Then we got SLush at 9th and drewbie at 11th. Simple math sums this up to 22.
To compare, we can look at TL and EG. Since most people agree those teams are up there, in the top.
TeamLiquid's top 3 were TLO(5th), HuK(10th) and Ret(13). Sum 28. For EG we have iNcontroL(4th), IdrA(7th) and Machine(15th). Sum 26.
All 3 teams with great results. Still some people fail to aknowledge ROOT as a team on TL and EG's level. This makes me so, so sad.
Again, no disrespect or anything for EG, TL and other teams. They are all awesome teams, with great, solid players. Even though ROOT is the team in my heart, I got no problem at all recognizing and respecting other teams. It is actually possible to support a team without looking down on competing teams.
For a complete summary and overview of team results, take a look at this thread.
Again, great games, well played to everyone who attended MLG Dallas.
