Lol I just kinda remembered this classic on a whim and thought I'd share it with all the new people on this site. Hasn't been discussed since like 2007 so here it is, boxer versus a blind guy. Pretty amazing.

Boxer took off the mask cause it was supposed to be a handicap for the first (5?) minutes of the game. If he kept it on I'm pretty sure you know what would've happened.

I didn't get why the blind guy morphed all his lurkers, giving boxer a lot of time to put down bunkers.

playing blind? for a two player map, isn't it easier to memorize how far and where the mineral patches are?

losing main, then floating his base away against a blind guy is the equivalent of bunker rushing a poor sick homeless child

I remember this match. The blind guy definitely had many chances to win. And if boxer wasn't terran, he wouldn't have been able to lift off

What do you mean....? Besides the fact that I could change your sentence structure. How are you suppose dto memeorize the distance...? What you mean utilize the sub-conscious muscle memory so you can do perfect brush strokes by your SCV's every time, it's not easy. =.= Stop insinuating stupid facts.

God, talk about a throw back. This happened when... was it in 2001? I vaguely remember when it happened. I tried to see how much I could do with my eyes closed. It was hard enough getting my workers to go to the minerals so I gave up after several attempts to actually get to the point where I build a supply depot.

does the blind boy have some sort of sound interface?
How does he know which position of the map he spawns at and where to send his workers.
How could he scout to even know what race his opponent is using? (aside from show match with famous terran boxer)

Amazing nonetheless.

I'm guessing he finds a mineral patch first. You know when you click on the bunch because of the sound it makes, once he knows that he knows what position he is in, and automatically knows where his opponent is. He probably knew he was playing against terran, but you can tell by the sound when a scout reaches the base, each worker has a very unique mining sound.

No, aside from near-perfect muscle memory, you can visualize the spawn point and where the minerals are. It's easy if you think you spawned at the position you spawned so you can start mining, but unlike the case of Boxer, he thought he spawned at the bottom and it was hard for him to guess/estimate where his scvs were and where the mineral patches were when he did not hear the mining sound.

I think you should add that the blind guy used lurkers, which are pretty micro intense, you cant A move them, if he used mutalisks, I thiknk he would have won

Actually one of the first sc games I ever watched :D brings back memories. The blind guy was pretty damn amazing. I Wonder what his iccup rank was.

I can't believe I'm actually reading someone talking about how easy it is to play video games as a blind person.

By all means take exception to him using a made up term that Garimto pulled out of his ass if you don't think it applies to what he does, but to say anything that guy manages to do in a game of BW is easy actually angers me. I mean why would you even take the stance of saying what he does is easy in any way. He's never in his life seen what any of those units or buildings are. He's never once seen the map. This isn't a person closing their eyes and playing a map that they have previously played before with their functioning eyes. This guy has been blind his entire life. It's remarkable. Why would you try to take anything away from what he has accomplished?

Yeah he could only play challenger because the layout, my guess is he finds what position he's at by the relative position of his drones to his hatchery

I loved watching this.
Boxer's train of thought:
I'm not even mining.
I must be losing.

I do want to try playing with some of my friends blindfolded. It sounds fun yet extremely difficult.
Anyone manage to get past mining?
