In Korean, gosu (lit. a better hand) is used to refer a person with great skill, usually in martial arts or in Baduk. Currently on the internet, gosu often refers to a good player of computer games, such as StarCraft, Lineage, and Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.
The word comes from the Mandarin Chinese term gao shou (also 高手), which literally means high hand. A gao shou is someone with a large amount of skill.
