Starcraft BW is nearing its demise on the international scene. It is possible that BW still might have a couple of years left in terms of Proleague, OSL, and MSL (basically the Korean pro scene). For this reason it appears Baby is perfect to embody the image of BW into the futue...he is the youngest progamer currently and has been called a prodigy.

Recently BaBy has been performing very well, with wins over both Jaedong (in a best of 5 series!!) and has been competing at the highest levels of TvT, being very close to FlaSh on several occasions, and finally triumphing a few days ago.

I sincerely think BaBy is the future of BW. FlaSh is still the king, but after his time is finished, the throne will be passed down to the next Terran emperor...

Boxer -> FlaSh -> BaBy

Thoughts?

The problem is the age gap between flash and baby is small and that theyll eventually be battling for that top terran spot like the current flash jd situation(in terms of overall best player).

Eh, it was more like Boxer -> Nada/Oov -> Flash -> Baby but I digress. If there is still 2 years left in BW I can see Baby winning a few OSL/MSL titles but what I really hope for is the Korean players coming and dominating sc2.
This is my quote.

BaBy will stay second best. He's not usurping Flash any time soon.

Don't know if you noticed, but flash is also very young (17, 19 in korean years). Flash is only two years older than BaBy. Boxer is 12 years older, iloveoov is 9 years older, and nada is 7 years older than flash. Flash's time will end at about the same time as BaBy's

Uh Baby 2-0'ed Jaedong in the OSL in a Bo3, not a Bo5.
As such though BaBy is very good. He can only get better.

at least Baby proved much more than Casy.
the "Neo-"Emperor.

as for Baby, he would have to achieve more than Flash to get anything close to Flash's title.

I dunno... I'd be more convinced by your words if baby didn't just beat flash in an ace match.

Feels like you only created this because of that win.

I think that Baby is to Flash as Effort is to Jaedong. Baby won't be considered a better player than Flash when future generations look back at their careers, but he will have streaks where he plays better than Flash. (like right now)

BaBy has greater potential than Flash. Flash has been at the top of the scene for longer and therefore has more experience, but BaBy is catching up.

We've recently seen BaBy convincingly outplay top players with solid multitasking.

LOL

but um hahaha man i lost my focus

Oh yeah, hard to transition from boxer to flash to baby considering your'e skipping out two of the winningest terrans of all time (oov and nada?) and c onsidering the fact that baby and flash are only 2 years apart, Baby is young but Flash is only 17 himself even though it feels like he's been around forever.

Baby may have been able to take a game or so off Flash but play 20 games in a row and Flash would probably win 12-15 of them.

Casy was amazing. Don't diss him.

And the title "Neo Emporer" had more to do with playing style than with dominance.

Nobody has "replaced" Boxer as the Terran Emporer and nobody ever will because that is a title that was given to him for all the things he did to influence how this game is played.
Even though this Proleague bullshit has been completely bogus, I really, really, really do not see how Khan can lose this. I swear I will kill myself if they do. - nesix before KHAN lost to eNature

how is baby taking over the crown? I don't see flash getting worse anytime soon, and he isn't that much older than baby. tlpd says they're 17 and 15, So I don't think Flash is retiring anytime soon...
