I'm no expert but wernt the French building tanks, planes, advanced chemicals and pharmaceuticals etc when Koreans were still in basically iron age conditions? No to mention throwing off the yolk of royalty/divine right of kings which world followed and is still following? Maybe they got lazy regardless, you can't generalize as there are always exceptions.

No, seriously, the French have shorter work days and more vacation time, indicating different priorities. Elky is not that good btw when compared to many other pros, and there will always be exceptions too.
I do have some idea what I am talking about as I am a Social Studies senior. Culture plays a huge role. It also a reason why there are not that many good NA players. The American work ethic has gone to pot.

Elky is one of the few SC BW players that ever competed at the highest level of BW in Korea. Just because it happened 10 years ago does not mean he did not have talent.
That is like saying Babe Ruth is not that good at Baseball because he played a long time ago.

As I said before, there are always exceptions. And of course Babe Ruth was good at Baseball.

Hm maybe you heard about the 35h/week work schedule, but for anyone living in France you know it's not true. If you work you have overtime hours and work to do at home which is not paid.
Take school for exemple, I went to American school when I was young, then to a french one later. We have a LOT more work to do at home, and typical school weeks leave you with little spare time, you have to work weekends as well most of the time.
By university though it's mostly the same, we do have a reputation to be lazy though.

There is research showing less you work more productive you are. Sounds counter intuitive but maybe you should take a business management class instead of social studies.

He doesn't play 3 hours a day though, please stop saying this. I've seen him Stream 4+ hours in a row countless times and I highly doubt he only plays when he streams.

I never said lazy, to be clear, it's okay to have different priorities.

indeed but stereotyping a random country culture to predict how well a particular individual will do is really really bad

This is very true, I don't know that the same applies to starcraft or not. There is no research on that.

That doesn't even... Koreans are good because they have good teams and it's widely accepted there. What you've just said is utter bullshit

Wealth may make you lazy. Japan aint what it used to be and neither will Korea one day so goes rise and fall of civilizations. I still think it's wrong to generalize about individuals.

Man, I hope you didn't go out of your country even one time, because if it's the case, you surely missed something.

Actually, french are almost the one who work the most per week in Europe.
The law being 35h / week is almost never reality here. And hell, most of progamer have less than 25years old, what do work sheldule have anything to do with progaming ?
Please stop with the cultural stereotype.

Seems like you never been out of the country either. Different countries have different cultures and work ethnics. That's a fact. Europeans tend to have more vacation days and shorter work days. That's a fact. Asian tend to be more work focused and discipline focused. That's a fact. Whether Stephano being French makes him less of a player than a Korean...that's debatable. However, you can't deny that Korean work ethnics can be correlated to their dominance of the gamr.
