i think he is saying that elo is stupid because a player like taeja can be #1 korean eventhough that is completely and totally ridiculous and he shoul not even be top 5. and mkp won winter arena and winter championsship mlg back to back and is not even top 5 just doesn't make sense right? | ||

While I was debating whether I should pursue gaming or continue my studies, my Korean teacher suggested I try out for the GSL preliminaries. Only in Korea :D Awesome | ||

MKP is #1 international ELO, foreign tournaments only count towards international ELO, also Koreans don't show up in the sidebar for international for some reason. http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/players/detailed-elo If you want to dispute that online tournaments shouldn't count towards Korean ELO I won't argue with you, though. | ||

What do you expect them to do, let all the other teams get good players and not expand their roster? look this is exactly why NA doesn't produce any good players it's just because liquid and EG are so stupid and ratch buy koreans than invest into any talent whatsoever... even those teams started to believe that NA is naturally untalented - just stupid and then look at mouz/empire who are both doing great with only having 1 korean between both of them and that korean has been living in america for a long time and didn't come to them from the korean server so he was basically a "foreign talent" eventhough he wasn't a foreigner empire picked up beasty and happy from ladder / online trouneys and welmu too (eventhough he left again but well...) then they have aristeo who is also a local talent mouz too they could have picked up a korean and go for some easy wins like liquid and EG but they decided to pick up biGs and heromarine - 2 EU talents and it is working out for them (beating both liquid and EG multiple times) | ||

Who would've thought back when all this started that EG would end up behind other teams in the Korean arms race. Liquid picking up their 3rd, Fnatic with 3 and Col with the 4 | ||

What have Beasty or Happy done? What have Bigs or Heromarine done? Why should a huge and popular team like TL sign players with no results in this day and age? I would say being a player on Team Liquid is one of the biggest honors in the sc2 world. They signed Taeja because he is a skilled, young player full of limitless potential, that will bring great results for the team in individual and team leagues alike, it just makes sense. You can dislike it all you want but this move is amazing for TL as a team, they needed another Terran player and they got one of the best. | ||

Should the best player available on the free market come from the NA, I think they will also sign him without hesitation, | ||

I love TaeJa so.. TaeJa fighting :-)! I still cannot believe he left SlayerS and it feels kind of akward to have Liquid`TaeJa, but I will get used to it ! Makes me like TeamLiquid line-up a bit better, because even though I think they have great players, I only really like TLO / ret / JinrO. | ||
