Thorzain: I don't blame lag as I know that in WC3, Koreans competed online in european tournaments and they still beat us. However, the main reason I think is stubborness and arrogance from the Koreans. I think that they thought that they would own all foreigners without much practice and didn't prepare as much as we did for them.
Even though I still think that Korea is ahead of the rest, it has been proven many times now that foreigners also can be powerful players.
This. The current attitude among Koreans towards foreigners kind of reminds me of the 2004 olympics in which the US men's basketball team took bronze because their arrogance led them to believe they were SOOOOO much better than the other countries. Turns out they were wrong.
Bottom line, as an activity/sport/whatever becomes increasingly popular in any region, it's only logical that the skills of the players of said region will also improve. The players from Europe are definitely proving the point with brutal efficiency.

Not that wrong. We sent a bunch of second string players because the real superstars didn't consider it worth their time and still got bronze. Then we came back in 2008 with our real players and dominated. Hmm...

If that translation of MC's interview is accurate that really makes me dislike him. Hope he gets flattened in the ro8.
|
lolol
sick interview with MC
MC is a boss
who the hell calls themselves 'the god of protoss' - lololol
|
Even though I'm a protoss player, I have to say that Thorzain and Kas have made me a huge fan of their play. I was so impressed with their games and am super excited for the next matches! :D
|
Way to go Kas! I hope he gets to compete at some major events, he will do really well anywhere really.

its funny because he did that before the game and lost quite badly

MC is starting to piss me off with his ridiculous cockiness - I hope ThorZaiN rapes him - which I'm pretty sure he will.
|
meh, still sad tyler's out. At least thorzain said he'll beat mc now^^
|
suddenly MC seems like a pompous asshole to me... he doesn't deserve to talk like he's God, he's nowhere near as accomplished as Flash... not yet at least
|
Lol good interviews. However i feel that thorzain needs to rewatch the games to realize that he won because nony played very poorly (mass collo against thors? Lolol). He's getting a little overconfident. And speakin of overconfident, lol @ mc as usual
|
MC with comments like best toss in the world is laughable considering he was a scrub in bw 
I wonder if he is still going to be that cocky when the actual top protosses from bw are going to switch over to sc2.

Haha MC hate. You guys are taking it too serious. I guess mind games work?
For my part I lol'd at MC's first response.
