Huh, I can honestly say I've never seen a Japanese player in SC2. Would be interesting to see.
|
Didn't Japan do something similar with CJ entus?
|
(fyi, there aren't two showmatches. this is the same one as the one i posted about last week.)
|
More Japanese SC2? Fuck yeah. Always love me some more CrimsoN :3
|
Does kurOa still play? He's the only Japanese SC2 player that I know of.
|
|
|
Nemuke! Why are you not playing in this?
|
Vaisvarna and kurOa are two Japanese players I know of. It's too bad sc2 isn't big there, I might be moving there mext year  Good luck to Japan!!

I already got older and my character is better suited with writing

@nemuke
Heh, as soon as the word got out I was like "dang there's gonna be a few very happy StarTale fans" so I put up a post minutes after the press releases lol
Best to consolidate traffic on this thread tho, as title is a better eye-catcher.
@KonanTenshi
Yeah, afaik there have been two Japan vs CJ's in the past year. once back in October, and a second one sponsored by e-sports SQUARE Akihabara back in May.
@NexUmbra
kurOa announced his retirement in his winner's interview for the JCG grand finals in January to dabble in League.
@Vansetsu
You should totally convince nemuke to come back to playing SC2 from HS....
