Koreans count age like English speakers count centuries. This is the 17th year of Reynor's life and we are living in the 21th century. | ||

So I expected the second game to be something similar, maybe Reynor figured out Classic. Thankfully, I was wrong, that was by far one of the best PvZ that I have seen in a long, long time. The last game that was that much of a nail biter was that I've seen Neeb vs Rogue in group stages last year at Blizzcon. I just found myself thinking, "I know that Reynor wins, but how? How? HOW?" And for me that was very exciting. | ||

Really exciting stuff from a rising star, and I don't think he needs a whole lot of luck to make a deep run in this tournament. I concur. However, he had the match-up cut out for him, as he said in the interview, by Classic playing exactly as he expected him to in the second series. Maybe not the best mind games or the tactically most savvy series there was, but certainly the most exciting and entertaining for quite a while imo. | ||

I hope he continues kicking butts and shutting mouths in the RO16 because, apparently, every time a top korean loses to a foreigner, it's because the former played like s***. What a time to be an SC2 fan. GG Reynor! | ||

That's not necessarily true, because you can be 2 years older than your.....worldwide age. When in Korea, I just ask, "what year were you born?" It's easier than trying to figure out the complexities of Korean age. | ||
