You know what the nickname "Time Attacker" is for?
Flash has better game sense but fOrGG has indisputable better macro and timing, though Flash one-ups him in the micro category.
ForGG's real strngth is in his preparation for a series though.

Stork/Best/Bisu/Free/Jangbi all amazing macro

Jaedong, in his game vs Bisu on Blue Storm, he displayed crazy macro, though it's hard to notice with all the harass. Any zerg with lesser macro would have been decimated.

The two players macros I admire most are Flash and Jaedong.
Very few terrans even compare to Flash on a macro level, Sea? ForGG?
Jaedong... doesn't even have a rival zerg to compare to.

Protoss macro is easy - -;;
But I definately relate. It's how I felt about Best when I was watching his first few.

Personally i feel forgg's macro is the best for all terrans. Talking about tvz His first hanbang has more units than any other pros and he reinforces faster than any other too. I have no idea how to explain how he has so much units. Forgg's series vs jaedong was the greatest display of terran macro i've ever seen.

After that Flash, Sea and Ruby. Ruby is underrated and not as known but watch his tvz games. One i recommend is him vs GGplay on zodiac. He pumps and reinforces so well he literally just rolls over ggplay's nat before hive even though he was behind. Flash and Sea are obvious just watch any game of them on Andromeda going sk terran.

Tvp though is another story ^^. In tvp flash's macro/timing is untouchable and is a work of art in itself. The timings of his builds, when he adds his facts, the amount of scvs he maynards, his expo timings literally everything. No one else comes near.

i've only see 2 replays of forGG, and an fpvod, so i can't comment. But flash is just perfect.


Can we agree that nothing on Broodwar can be executed perfect please? It may be good, amazing and truely incredible, but "perfect" isn't true :D!


Edit: BeSt's macro is beastly. He conjures units up out of nothing and pounds his opponent with that :S^^

i think jd displays more multitask than macro in that game.

Well of course that's how it has to work. Otherwise how else would people know that he doesn't actually know it? Can't share a secret you don't know
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
Oh goodness me, FOX tv where do you get your sight? Can't you keep track, the puck is black. That's why the ice is white.
