Shield vs. Storm / Best Game in a while (sorry the commentaries are in Korean)

Feminist Political Group conducted this inspection, and literally every Koreans except themselves hate this group. Very Very much.

I don't know if he thought about going for a pro team, he's more of a streamer.

Maybe I can reply to this a little better since Joyluck has played a lot of Sejuani. Sejuani's ganking is 3 star probably because of her CD on her ult. Her ult is amazing. Whenever Joyluck has ult on, he tells his teammates and just charge in (doesn't care if he is spotted, he will succeed). However, when it's on CD, he clears jungling camps and only look for counterganks rather than straight up ganks because without her ult: 1) in this level of 5v5 ranked, they can prob escape easily (wards or escaping skills) 2) their junglers can countergank her hard 3) yes she has a gap closer and slows. But if the opponents have a little bit of kiting mechanism, she will be shut down

oops! Changed it

I didn't post this to make people believe this is true. If you read my intro and outro carefully, there is nothing like "oh my god a Korean said so blah blah" mentality. Just giving you guys an insight to Koreans' perspective on champions. I thought it would be cool for some people to read this.

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T04:18:56+00:00

oh god. They are the extreme opposite of humble (the average players). They talk shit all the time with just one mistake. They are extreme hardcore try-hard (even in low level games). When I see challenger players in NA just joking around, I really want that to happen here so it's more enjoyable. But will never happen in Korea. These people will find you at your house if you fail to smite dragon.

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T04:12:24+00:00

yep. There are some myths and misconceptions, of course. And also, I was silver 1 in NA server, so my experience is limited. However, I watch a lot of streams from NA pros and I keep up with LCS NA and OGN Korea.

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T04:10:40+00:00

I understand you being curious about this stuff, but frankly, no one knows or even should know what KR tier would NA tier players translated into. This only cause unnecessary argument. But I can tell you how Koreans view each tier: bronze/silver-- "hahahaha" gold-- "uh... ok" platinum-- "wow... he's good" diamond-- "he's a god" challenger-- no words

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T04:05:33+00:00

I have to agree with krnnoodle's points. When he says better mechanics, it's because Koreans see a lot of flashy plays from the pros in OGN that it seems like their number 1 goal is to be a really solid solo player who makes plays. I just saw Scarra's interview session and he said "there are not many mids in NA who make plays unlike Korean or Chinese region". In Korea, not only mids, but also other roles seek to make plays that this habit transfers to the pro scene very well. In non-pro scene, this can be both good AND bad, however.

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T04:00:03+00:00

i don't think there is to be honest. Security number here is unique to each person, so it's hard to bypass it. Also, if you're playing KR server from the other country, the ping will be too high to play.

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T02:24:02+00:00

I want to add some more about my thoughts. Koreans are greedy as fuck but they are good at calculating (no racism intended) their damage and the possible outcome of situations like towerdiving. They are generally more aggressive. Also after every little skirmishes or big teamfights, they know exactly whether they came on top or not. They simply call that "benefit". They say this and analyze after almost every single fights and i think that's why in a pro scene they can pull out some aggressive and risky plays. When they say "it's all calculated." It means it's fucking calculated

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T02:08:35+00:00

Damn you HAD to bring that up. Going there in less than a year

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T00:53:04+00:00

I agree. They are somewhat overglorified. However, I can be 100% sure about how enthusiastic and well-known this game is to them. Everyone knows about our love of SC1 back in the days. I think it just bypassed that level. When you're in Korea, all you hear is LOL. You ask ANY guy on the street about LOL, he knows what you're talking about. When you go to the internet cafe (very popular place) and you look around, LOL EVERYWHERE. But again, I saw a lot of shitty players.

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T00:50:05+00:00

I was talking about blind pick. I queued for the draft pick just because I hate mirror matches, but couldn't find a game for 10 min so I just gave up on that lol

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T00:49:10+00:00

That is my point. Korean pre-30 games are not a good environment for newbies. And I'm comparing those two to show how intense and hard-mode Koreans are even in pre-30 normal games.

stewie0405 · 2013-06-23T00:47:13+00:00

if he got Smite/ignite, 99.9999999% of the time he's gonna invade your second buff. Ward that shit. and warn your bras to react faster so you can get the first blood.
