This implies that it was used (to great effect) for a long period of time when in fact it was a gimmicky build with a GIGANTIC timing window that he had to use because his MnM micro is so awful it's often physically painful to watch. All a zerg had to do to beat that build was like... earlier hydralisks >.>. It didn't change the entire dynamic of TvZ http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=80595 Don't argue with me, go argue with Day[9]. People did not stop using Mech because it was weak. People stopped using it because the new maps disfavor Mech. The reason is obvious. No audience want to watch Mechfest for all three matchups. M&M is too sexy to be obsolete. | ||

boxer and oov were both mentioned in roundabout ways fantasy was dodged because the writer hates him for inexplicable reasons | ||

If you're going to write about the Terran race and its players, include all the good players, not just the ones you like. and i subtly mentioned boxer, oov, and nada (though nada's reference is pretty subtle). | ||

I for one agree with that, and if you don't then right your own or don't bitch. This thread is obviously opening discussion on current best terrans and how they stomp everyone, and lots of people believe Fantasy should be on that list (and apparently sea and really don't in place of him :/), hardly bitching, just wondering why he's not there when he's clearly good. | ||

Before BW expansion (medic) and patch 1.08, Terran was pretty much on the losing end. Then came a guy whose ID is Boxer and changed everything. As for Fantasy, the author already explained he is a very biased person and hates Fantasy's guts. | ||

Seriously, it only worked when opponents weren't expecting it/hadn't prepared for it. Watch game 5 of the Batoo OSL finals. Even fantasy moved on to other mech builds after that series. I can't believe Day[9] fell for the hype on that.  | ||

After the Fantasy build, all the Terrans go mech, albeit not necessarily following the Fantasy Build. And yeah, even Fantasy stopped using Valkyrie soon afterwards, but it didn't change the fact that he popularized Mech v.s. Zerg for two seasons. | ||

Then dont get pissed when people inevitably flame you. People, perhaps mistakenly, expect at least a little objectivity in these kinds of posts, so while it is your prerogative to write about the best terrans and blatantly leave out one due to nothing more than personal reasons you should be prepared for or at least expect this type of reaction. | ||
