I think you dont quite understand what im saying. By no means am i saying Retail players are bad that is far from what im getting at. There are quite a few players who i know of from videos, Friends, Rep that have have achieved so much in retail and im sure will do so through out Open Beta. What im getting at is when you see the best players in POB vs the best of retail there will be quite a noticeable difference im sure of it.
How can you be sure? You did not even play on the server of the Chinese ... you played on the server where the majority was foreign.
Can you imagine the "red guild" of your server? multiply this several times and you will know what was the situation of who played on the server with Chinese majority ... more ping, less access to cash ...
Whoever managed to win against non-ping Chinese, with a lot of +15 equipment and event times all in their favor (we played dojo 5AM), in my view did something much more expressive than someone who has won sometimes on a "home" server.
