Obviously Xeno's route to 10k was easier than Life, but you can't blame the guy, since everyone would do the same if given that opportunity. Just look at all the Koreans joining other regions for WCS because its easier competition/cash, people just feel the need to get mad at anything in SC2 scene these days lol

What I see is this - while Koreans were out of the country beating up foreigners and taking their money, Xenocider, Welmu, and Ret made a ninja move into Korea to get some of it back.

Well played.
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

So the "community member" of EG that most likely isn't even salaried is pulling in the best results for them? Wow. Congrats though.

? yes he "won a touny" Ill give him that but he beat 2 known players Ret and Welmu... u can NOT call xeno the best foreigner on the team just because he won a tourny by playing 2 bo3s against those 2 players when the other plays win against players xeno could not xeno is not even in challenger league i will remind u.

Awesome to hear. Xeno speaks so badly about his skills in this game. Hope this is just the beginning..

I mean good job Xeno and everything but this tourney was SO weak in comparison to IEM and he gets paid the same as Life...

This tournament was weak because of IEM/WCS.
Everyone who has the slightest shot of WCS Finals wants to get CS poitns so they all go to the WCS Points event (IEM). Money is not as important, since the big money is in the WCS Finals.
HOLY CHECK!

Pickung lucrative tournaments is part of the job (ask IesF world champion Sjow), attending here was just a good call Xeno made, although I would have rather seen Hasu or Welmu walk away with the 10k.

That said, congratz to Xenocider.

Wow Xenocider gets $10,000 for winning some garbage tournament. If I was a pro gamer I would have said screw IEM I'm getting some easy money. I guess I'm just annoyed that Naniwa only got $4,000 despite being so much better.
FUCK YOU, Starcraft isnt dead cause I'm playing it! :)

Yeah definitely a smart move by Xeno. I just dunno why so few good players saw this as a good opportunity with the prizepool. I mean, it was in Korea, and there are so many Korean players who I thought would jump at this chance.

Yeah but Naniwa was really in it for the WCS points.

Not to take away anything from Xenocider, but Welmu did have to beat three Koreans to get to the finals, whilst Xeno only had to play Ret :X


In the bracket that I see Xenocider beat a Korean as well. And that Korean might be unknown but the same goes for the one that Welmu faced in the same round.

My friend (who knows nothing about starcraft) saw xeno randomly at the escapist expo (WCG USA) and asked him if he won the prize he was holding at a raffle. Xeno apparently, was a pompus butt and completely sneered and ridiculed him. Maybe hes a good sc2 player but he doesn't seem like the greatest guy...

he's like 12 isn't he? remember when they had David Kim on Inside the Game? He was an idiot for the first hour or so, then he stopped talking (assuming someone from EG told him to chill out and apologize) then, while everyone was saying goodbye to david kim, he said he was sorry and stuff.

They just need to divert some of their dirty eg money to life-coaching or something so he doesn't turn into an arrogant ungrateful kid.
