Dimaga, Kas and Whitera especially are quite good and could probably go toe to toe to the best Koreans.
Dimaga yes, Whitera and Kas NO. Whitera got manhandled by bomber, lost 2-8. Kas got completely rolled by MC, lost 0-4. Dimaga stands a chance, as he beat both nestea and mvp.

I'm surprised as to how much Koreans consider this really a global tourny. I guess they too want many more foreigners participating in GSL.

Haha, the response to MMA vs July G1 is gold. 
"Korean vs Korean.. Bunker rushing is the usual!"

GSL's idea of Global is Korea vs the World.
MLG is a brutal team-killing free for all with so many countries represented.

This is honestly very well said and describes/summarizes both great, I haven't seen anyone in the GSL go on a rage and smash keyboards

And Kas played horribly in the games against MC. He has a tendency to play bad when it really matters probably problems with his nerves. Just look at his games against ThorZain and MC and compare them to his usual games.

and like i said in last mlg thread, its just not worth for them, visa problems + lots of money to travel to USA, just to have a small chance to place in MAYBE top5? they will just keep practising for dreamhack

After that Dimaga got manhandled by San and Whitera won MC so what's your point? That they win and lose against koreans? I would say that's pretty ok.
Last time they met MC destroyed IdrA, things change.

Thanks alot, always funny to see what the Koreans think
|
i love reading about the korean's netizen perspectives! thanks for taking the time to do this!
|
Surprised OP still hasn't been given a star, he's been translating stuff from the gsl, tsl etc for quite a while, definitively think he deserves it.
I mean the TSL3 korean reactions thread where he translated pretty much everything has over 165k views, if that isn't contributing I don't know what is.
|
Nice to see how the Koreans think about this. They are so positive :D.
|
Really like to read that the Koreans are as excited as us to see a truly global tournament. Also tells a lot on how they perceive GSL and that they are quite aware of the fact that it is a bit isolated.

Yes someone posted vods of him play 2v2 with optikzero on PlayXP ^^

Thanks for the day2 translations! Love seeing their reactions and acknowledgment of MLG being amazing
Hopefully foreigners will train super hard for next MLG and win more games of koreans! Though most lost to the koreans, a lot of games were quite close

You base your opinions off one game? Kas is a beast, I would rate him at a similar level to Naniwa. He was just nervous in the game vrs MC but he is an amazing player. I wish a team with awesome support like EG, Dignitas or TL would sign him so he could showcase his talent then people could see his talent. If i were to pick one (and they are all very good) it would be Kas from those three.

some guy raises a valid point with his "where's china?" comment.
china are pretty internalised.. i don't even know how good their players are, really.

Thank you man Really interesting

Check the vods of stars wars, XiaoT is really good. Destroyed Idra easily.

I've been looking around in playxp for a bit and I'm suprised at how remarkably few replies there are compared to teamliquid. Most of their forum threads are unreplied and all that stuff that Fantasy is translating is pretty much a comments section to playxp's MLG coverage.
Does anyone know if that's just the way korean starcraft fans are? I'm just suprised at the seemingly lack of conversation.
