You realize there is a foreign community on Fish, right? If you need company and people to play with that speak English then that's fine, but if you want mass games on Fish just play the Koreans.
Iccup because I suck I am a D- terran and if i start playing in fish who's like B+ ,A+ gosus I am seriously going to get so demoralized probably contemplating quiting the game too . Met a lot of good friends on iccup so iccup for life .
I play on \\\ ICCuP ///, because I haven't the urge to fiddle with all of the doohickeys so I can go afk on a server for an entire day before playing with people who speak only in alt-code.
Despite the long waiting time for games, massive egos, and BR's, I like being able to actually play BW every once and awhile with less than 1.5 second latency.

For what reason? it sounds a little racist there;d
It's not like every korean is good.. most of them are actually more fun to play because they don't cheese as much and hence practicing is easier, that doesn't neccessarily mean that they are good, though.
I play on fish, because it's a pain to find a game on iCCup as soon as you get over C rank. And besides that, the choice of players then is also getting alot thiner the higher your rank becomes.
There is absolutely no racism involved here. Ive played Iccup for years and by now i must have played around 1500-2000 1v1s. I can count on one hand how many koreans ive beaten. They are annoyingly good at abusing timing attacks and even the shitty ones make use of deadly mechanics.
Ive been playing this game since I was a teenager, slightly before BW could record replays. Its been a fun ride throughout the years but this is it for me. I cannot dedicate my time at this stage in my life to big improvements anymore. I still play and I do still try to improve when I play but huge improvements in BW skill requires a tremendously ridiculous amount sacrifice in your life which frankly is not worth it. At this point, I just want to win once in a while with my current (C- high) skill and based on my experience with koreans on ICCUP over the years, I probably wont win a single game on fish.

I think your opinion is invalid. I stopped reading after your first paragraph because of how funny it is. You've played 1500-2000 1v1s? This definitely makes you an expert. Of course any Korean, or anyone with a non-primate brain is good at timing attacks against someone who has played less games than a 2v1 cpu @ Blood Bath player.
At least there is one constructive, and educated thing in your post: no one is being racist here. Because Korean is not a race, it's an ethnicity, and after the Korean War, maybe a culture.

Im always hearing about this Garena. Does this server keeps stats like Bnet and Iccup ?
No and people in Garena are generally a bunch of noob shits. They either play UMS or get stomped by D- level players (One day when I was a D- noob, I went 12-0 on garena).
On topic: I still play on iccup, fish/brain are too good for me.

Im really surprised at your level of intelligence for such a large figure in the community. Boy, you're as dumb as load of fuckin bricks. My post was not born of any opinions but rather of my personal experience and intent.
Experience: I get raped senseless by koreans on Iccup. Intent: None to improve much beyond my current level of skill.
In fact, the only thing that might count as an opinion is my statement of my expectation not to win any games on fish. How the fuck do you extrapolate from my post that Im implying that im some kind of expert ?
Let me bottom line it for you. Im no expert and I dont intend on becoming anything close to it. I just want to enjoy the game and win from time to time....thats it. Grow a fuckin brain when you read other people posts so you can avoid posting such retarded and inflammatory bullshit like you just did.
Iccup because I can't be bothered finding out how get on Fish, I'm pretty casual anyway and if I'm feeling really lazy I won't even jump online. I'll just load up BWAI and set it on random Racine rebel and enjoy the fucked up build the computer does

Ya true but I dont believe his disrespectful condescension is born of malice but rather of poor intellect and low self-esteem which is quite forgivable so I dont hold any grudges. I wish him all the best. He just needs to be put in his place from time to time.
