Best of luck to all the NA/EU players. After the TSL, I'm sure the koreans are going to want to show their dominance to the rest of the world. Whether they will or not remains to be seen.

I really like Bomber, but having MC there is sick for sure. All props to July to go thru the open bracket.

I cant see players in Bomber's group react well to this. They practiced for weeks for a XvT and they get a XvP vs possibly the best protoss in the world... GSL kind of messed up there imo, and MLG should have insisted atleast to sen a Terran to replace bomber...


Simply practicing XvT is not going to cover you for a completely different player even if he is playing the same race. That and what Terran player lost first round of GSL super tournament who is able to replace Bomber?

Lyn would've been an ok replacement, I'm sure a lot of fans would've loved to see him at a lan for SC2 now. Boxer is a legend but I doubt he would leave his team especially with some slayers people making into the ro32 Ryung > Inca.
Jinro would've also been an option maybe but he's not even Korean and defeats the purpose of the foreign agreement.

Well I agree players will have little time to prepare for MC/July like they did for bomber, the same can be said for July and MC. They are now flying over to compete against the best players NA has to offer, I doubt they would need the practice but I'm sure they would love some info at least. I bet Huk gave MC the fast recap of what all of these NA players are like if MC doesn't already know.

From a spectators perspective, MC is a far better choice than Lyn, Ryung or anyone else like that. We're the ones keeping MLG in business so I don't see why only players should get a say in these things.

I'd love a statement from IdrA, I'm pretty sure MC is a much harder opponent for him (or at least in his opinion) than Bomber (ZvT best MU, ZvP worst). Also Nestea beat Bomber very convincingly, and I really dont think IdrA is much worse than Nestea


Yes he is.

Eh. Maybe 3 months ago. Watching Idra, it really seems like he's vastly improved himself over the last few months, while many of the korean zergs are kind of stagnating.

While he probably isn't better, saying he's "Much worse" is definitely not true.


Have you seen Nestea play recently? The gap now is bigger than it's ever been.


Ya pretty much, I don't even think Idra would do well in Code A anymore, and seeing him get completely outplayed in every possible way in two long macro games (one of which Zenio got off to an awful start) did nothing to change my opinion on that.

Idra is just an average player that refuses to change his strategies and they have become outdated and stale nowadays


He credited his loss to Zenio due to him not knowing the metagame which pretty much tells us everything we need to know. He left Korea and is slowly falling behind.


KR protoss are falling behind as well compared to EU and CN protoss =)

But yeah. It's unfair to even compare IdrA and KR zergs anymore. Practicing with EG and shitty NA ladder is not the same as practicin with IM or oGs or KR ladder =/


And MC has won so many PvP's versus non Koreans. Ace recently beat Hasu Obs and Squirtle is like 6-1 in his NASL group and that's all with the lag nevermind in a LAN.


And Socke have Squirtles number, what's your point?


Squirtle is Code B. Socke is a top three EU Protoss.

Question is how much jet lag is really affecting their play.
Guess everyones body reacts differently.

Is it me or I'm really dislike July's play style. I mean last night he won the clash of titan houses semi and final against San and Taeja with banelings bust. He can't macro in long game vs other players, so he just cheese

Watch the movie "Fairgame" with Sean Penn, it's a good story around this topic basing on real facts![/offtopic]

Moon is more on the level of a foreigner IMO, not one of the better Koreans, I could see him being beaten.

Agreed somewhat, but Moon is actually really good and he noticeably plays better each time we see him in action. I'm thinking Moon will produce some results.

I guess you didn't listen to Artosis when he said that July can macro like no body's business if he wants to . July likes to play macro games too , but if he sees that you are playing greedy he will punish you . Also July likes to play greedy himself since he is very confident in his abilities to hold of early harras or all - ins . If he gets punished for it and gets pissed about it you can expect to see him baneling bust you the next game . If July doesn't take significant damage early or middle game you can expect him to steamroll almost anyone in late game . A good example is his first game against MVP in the GOMTV World Championship .

I doubt Moon will do much.. He's over rated IMO. I'm expecting him to get knocked out quite early with the amount of talent going.

Who else in Korea has access to an overseas visa and willing to travel in such short notice (less than 24 hours?)
