there is not NEARLY as many people who are trying to become progamers in europe as korea, hence korea will always have more people and therefor more practicepartners no matter what which will in most cases lead to higher skill. the analyzing part is true indeed but how many team leaders in europe / america do you think have played starcraft or RTS on a high level? I can guarantee very very few or none. The koreans always stick together and will always work against the foreigners , surely this is a mistake in the foreigner community indeed ( we could do the same ) But right now the koreans are better obviously and there are alot more dedicated players in korea . This is how it works -> If im going to practice to play a korean there is a very high chance they will leak what im practising to that player ( why ? ) Because thats how the "korean pride" works. I am not korean, so therefor this is an issue i cant overcome without learning korean. obviously i can trust the startale players because we have a partnership with them, but other than that its every korean together against all foreigners. ( Nestea discussing strategys with 10 koreans before playing me for example. )
if you think this is fair conditions to judge someones skill. then i havent really got anything else to say. Maybe its my fault for not studying korean for 2 years before going here to try to find practice?.

morons, Sincerely - naniwa.

Not sure how you can rail against Koreans' pride while defending foreigner pride.

or....you could broaden your play to incorporate things outside of your typical style. I've noticed the longer time there is before a match with you, the better ANY player (korean or not) does against you. You apparently aren't that difficult to prepare for. Sorry naniwa. Either your prep is sub par or you are too easy to practice against. both fixable things.

You make a solid point, but I don't understand the thread title or the "morons".

Starcraft is more like Football than it is soccer. Most games are set plays from the start that are improvised based on results. We've seen how powerful spying on other teams has been in the NFL.

I think its fair that Nestea is discussing how to beat you with your opponents. Nobody is stopping you from asking..lets say Huk or Stephano on how to beat Nesta (or anyone you're playing).

I think he's just mad at the moment. Other than the title and the morons, I think Naniwa makes an interesting point. I've certainly never heard of anything like this going on, but it has to be somewhat expected that people of the same nationalities are going to want to help each other out. To us it may seem like cheating, but to them they are just helping their friends and their countrymen.
