Mensrea : Yea I know, he sent it to me. We were dicussing who will make the post here but since he already expressed his oppinion in the interview it was up to me

Liquid^Drone : Yea i knew that also, but it is very unlikely that at this point a full team of foreign Brood War players mostly unknown to Korean public could be formed and sponsored.

Fabolous work Mynock

but about war3, there is just so much luck involved comparing to broodwar, my bro (whos an exact opposite of me, plays war3 instead of BW) won a LAN tourney just cuz he found 3 books of the dead , it was just jokez after that, another game he got 3 12+ atack claws on his DH in first 8 mins... i feel bad for whoever he was playing

WoW elky like a football coach lol. He looks at his own tendencys, then the other guys, and then comes up game plain lol.
When the spirit is not altogether slain, great loss teaches men and women to desire greatly, both for themselves and for others.

when you have great items, you managed to get them by creeping fast at key point. if his opponent let him get 3 books of the death... he deserves to lose :O

wtf you mean LET HIM GET 3 FUCKING BOOKS [OF] THE DEAD?!
... mfg.. he didnt LET him.. see since the item spawn is using a random system.. book of the dead is a lvl 6 item i believe, so any creep lvl 6 or above can drop it.. or he can drop you a fuckin mana potion or boots of speed.. but you see, since the amount of luck is tremendous..
His opponent WAS creeping just as good if not better/faster then my bro was.. but you see a fuckin mana potion and boots of speed arent exactly as good as a 3 books of the dead now are they?...

Conclusion: I whole-heartedly agree with ElkY

Uhm, why do you even bother posting when it's clear you seem to know absolutely nothing about the game? Sure, your opinion is your opinion, but next time please check up the details before judging a game. If you actually care, I can post a longer comment pointing out how many errors you got. But I can start out with saying your bro's opponent wasn't exactly a top player losing to that =].

ShieTh, you never played Warcraft III and watched like 2 games, right?

The item spawn isn't completely random, it depends on the monster levels. A level 6 monster will always drop a good item and no boots of speed. Sure it depends on luck, if the items match your game and a rock golem is mostly better than a book of dead.

3 books of dead are the worst items you can get, too easy to counter with dispell. At the time you get those, your opponent 100% has a dispell f.e. a priest or wand of negation (classic), if he isn't a newbie. The books of dead just give free experience, a good player even won't use them in a battle.

Claws of attack are good items, but there are much better.

Don't try to talk about something you obviously have no clue.
