JYP has the potential to be the best Protoss I've ever seen, but right now all you have to do is send a Terran and he's fucked. Also it's not like he didn't have good TvP practice partners at TSL; Polt is unstoppable in the match-up and Alive is really good at it as well. Slayers' worst match-up is TvP; MMA, Ganzi, Ryung, etc. all struggle against Toss. JYP has problems with Korean terrans, but what about the foreign tournaments? The foreign terrans who could put up a fight are few, and this makes the foreign scene perfect for JYP. As for EG being the top foreign team, one could certainly say that, and have very convincing arguments behind it. But Mouz really impressed me in the IPL Team Arena, beating Slayers, colMVP, and Thorzain even all-killed QIM. If only Mouz, Liquid, and EG would all compete in the GSTL... | ||

Yeah totally ignoring that he will be living in the Slayers House - possibly the best practice environment in the world..regardless of EG | ||

If your criteria of not sucking is basically round of 4 or higher in GSL then your list of players who suck must be pretty huge. When did I EVER say he sucks? WTF? I said he is Mediocre in Korea and one of the best foreigners...... how does that equal me saying he sucks? seriously...... | ||

IPL was ez mode. he placed ro8 in Code S so long ago the game wasn't even developed enough for their to be a skill difference.... same with HuK's first MLG win. Taking a couple games off top players here and there does not equal being a great player... winning consistently does and neither of them can say that they have. As I said they are easily some of the best foreign players, but in Korea skill wise they are mediocre.... I love how you completely skip over the tournaments where they had to face strong competition, and focus on the negatives. I'm done derailing the thread arguing about a statement that is so blatantly either just really ignorant or dumb. Maybe both. Congratz JYP and EG. | ||

I left them out because yes they did win against good competition, I'm not taking that away from them... As I said they are some of the best foreigners, just merely said they are only mediocre compared to the talent pool in Korea.... And yes Gratz to EG and JYP will be interesting to see if/when he comes to MLG's etc. | ||
