					lol... there are good players everywhere. More importantly, no matter where you are on the ladder, your playing with people of skill level similar to you. So don't try to justify losing games with a "but people here are better" mentality. This kind of discussion just feeds all the sore losers... play your game where you are and get better. As long as there are players better than you on the ladder, you still have work to do. Kill this thread already people are just dissing each other now  | ||

At the tip toppity top you don't always get matched with people of your skill, due to lack of people at your level. This leads to the 3:1 w:l ratios that aren't uncommon. | ||

But think about it 2 countries competing on a ladder compared to 40 you would think it would be a lil more competitive and therefore harder.  | ||

					Lets assume the top 200 from NA and EU are close in skill. If the overall server playerbase is good enough, the W:L ratios of T200 will be lower, due to higher amounts of precise matchmaking. Here's the NA: http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/1797994 And EU: http://eu.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/554903 this could be flawed, however, due to many factors. Just a theory.  | ||

I'm from EU, but most of my favorite players have origins in the NA server - KiwiKaki, Huk, InControl, IdrA, Day[9], Arthritis, Tasteless, djWheat, miniWheat, qxc, Machine and CatZ, just to name a few. EU players might be better, in some cases, but the names that stand out for me from the EU region are ... TLO, Jinro, Haypro, Ret, DeMuslim, Mondragon and Grubby. And I'm really struggling to figure out more names that I really enjoy watching. Yes, of course, there are Nama, Mana, Mama and Sjow, but ... they're not exactly that sort of attention grabbers as most of the NA players. So which server is better ? Who cares really ? Both are behind the Korean. Really no White-ra, Dimaga or Socke ? ![]()  | ||
