I can see that Poopi is really hardcore Terran fan LOL. With your logic attached to this "free TvZ wins" ballshit, I assume that u also think that Byun won Code S for free too?

fifth question - shouldnt it be KR threads instead of LR threads ?
If something can corrupt you, you're corrupted already.

People hate on Nerchio because he says Koreans are overrated, and anyone who thinks foreigners are good is automatic scrub
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

While I do hope the foreigners put on a good show, I just don't see it happening. Yes a lot of us have a Korean bias, but it is well earned. What do you expect people to think after 10+ years of Koreans beating Foreign asses, literally to the point where big daddy blizzard had to step in and separate the two. If to be successful, you need the system to ban other players from coming in so you get money, you can't turn around and complain about Bias.....

I sincerely wish you good luck in Kespa Cup, I do hope the foreigners have gotten better and closed the gap. It sounds like you guys are training hard. It would be nice to have my Korean bias proven wrong.

LR stands for Live Report, essentially TL's tournament threads.

Nerchio is becoming the Joffery Baratheon of SC2, people hates how he states his opinion, he know it, yet you need recognize how good actor he is.

I dont get this reasoning, you dont see NHL teams competing in SHL. You dont see Barcelona making a quick tour through eastern europe grabbing the league prize money from Ukraine, Bulgaria Romania Poland etc. How do you expect scenes to grow and foreigners to improve and try if theres no incentive for them to play?


As for korean bias, one can look at skillfactors such as builds strats and mechanics. Unless youve been living under a rock its been pretty clear that while korean zergs have been struggling in LotV because they desperately try to keep the momentum in their matchups, foreigners accepted that you can no longer dictate the games in ZvT until hivetech, you just have to defend and play positional ZvT.

However if you look at pure mechanics, sure the best korean zerg (dark) has better mechanics than foreigners.

Well said, although it's kinda funny how it's only when Blizzard bans Koreans from fighting foreigners, all of a sudden people saying they aren't that good XD. Like no one weren't saying that back when foreigners were getting bopped on a weekly basis lol

Ok so foreigners are blaming Korean for being too good ? Tell me whats wrong about Korean ? They practice harder, they are more professional (while you guys still study or hang out, they stay at teamhouse at practice) and you blame them ? Seems legit LOL.
And about Nerchio, i havent seen him beat any top tier Korean (at least in a major tournament) and he answered this interview like he is one of the best Zerg (if not the best) in the world, underestimate the Koreans. I'd like to know what this guy will say when he lose in the first rounds of Kespa cup, especially against Korean.
And yes, Korean arent the only ones know to play Starcraft 2, but they are much more better than the rest. Its like a 6 year-old boy shouts at his math teacher: "hey, you are not the only one knows Mathematic"
