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.
Tough shit. Life isn't fair. Etc etc etc.
You're making an awful lot of assumptions too, unless you mind shedding light on the 10 players NesTea talked to, or the number of people in Europe actually trying to become a pro gamer as opposed to the number of people in Korea.
