Seriously, someone could try to tell you, but the decider match is 100% must-watch for any fan of Korean SC2. Check it out if you can.

Reynor inspires me to play better.

It's been a long time since someone did that.

Interestingly enough, reynor could not play in the WCS until a few days ago (which also means Qualifiers). But in my opinion this series shows that the region lock should be ended.

I'd rather have them remove the region lock completely so Classic could compete in WCS... GSL is a global league by design, it's always exciting to see foreigners make it there.

Great plays by Reynor btw, he looked like a perfect Zerg this day, harassing everywhere, swarming his opponent from multiple angles, switching techs all the time. Beautiful style. I am inspired.

When the day comes that the average top foreigner can beat top Koreans, then the region lock will be removed.

Koreans still win most of the time against foreigners, as great as Reynor played, one bo3 does not erase dozens of matches that Koreans have won against foreigners. Unlocking the regions now would only serve to stifle the foreign regions with pro players unable to earn a living again.

For Korea, you would have to allow bad Koreans to compete in WCS while disallowing good Koreans from competing. Unfortunately, those lower tier Koreans likely wouldn't do much better against foreigners.

It's starting to get kind of annoying how much casters/people talk about age, I mean Life won GSL at 15 and I don't remember it even being the biggest talking point for him. I guess our pro playerbase is getting kind of old, but it comes off as kind of desperate, at least Reynor really lives up to the hype. The last game was really good, tactically Reynor just played perfectly, it kind of gave me the JaeDong vibe, where he's very adamant about winning both strategically, but also mechanically. Life lings>Reynor lings still though, Life's would've done the same damage, but without the +1 melee upgrade^^

No. A foreigner has knocked a two Koreans out of one of the only tournaments they can actually play in. If reynor is to go out in the next round it's OK he can head back home and play in WCS - classic and ryung can't do that.

I'd rather have no region lock for next year.
Maybe add a korean qualifier for the WCS challenger (2 spots + no lock for the main event) and a foreign qualifier for GSL (2 spot for RO32 + no lock to the main qualifiers like now)

travelling to EU or NA for maybe not getting the money back is a huge investment. So my guess is there wouldn't be more than 6-8 korean in the groups stage of WCS. Especially knowing that each of them could loose in a group of death scenario and in the final bracket. Serral, Neeb, Scarlett, now Reynor have shown to be able to take out big names, and other foreign players like Uthermal and Showtime could do it also.

So, no Region lock next year please ! Blizzard hear me !

So, is he also the yougest to be ro16 ? I guess Life or Maru is/was the youngest for the time being.

Maru was 14 and ~8 months old when he qualified for the Ro16 on March 27th, 2012.
Life was 15 and 8 months old when he qualified for the Ro16 during his royal road season.

Korean age, right? So it's pretty close. Reynor was 15 years and 3 days in Korean age afaik.

Reynor is like 17 korean age I think

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.


Koreans count how many years they have lived in.
I am 22 in non korean age, in korea I am 24.
Have a nice day ;)

Oh man I knew stermy would be top dog by a lot but I didn't expect so many players I've never heard of who've done pretty well for themselves.

I wonder if stermy has any intention of competing in QC...

I'd say he's only second to Stermy. Definitely proved more worthy of ClouD or StarEagle already, Starcraft-wise
I used to organize tournaments for ESL Italy and referee Go4SC2s, WCSs, and IEMs for ESL SC2.
