Wow, some really nice bumps past few days. This is the first I've seen of this as well, sooooo cool. Heh, by the end of this year the whole sidebar will be just bumped 04-07 threads.

THE fastest player if I'm not mistaken. He started the whole APM trend iirc.

slayer was never a progamer, but still beat them all, while getting very, very good grades in school. bump. it's been a year since this documentary has been bumped (original thread is from 2004.) and a lot of new people are on TL.net that "do know know the history". yesterday i was watching some poker videos of Elky and bumped into a slayer documentary, i think it needs to be seen again. For a clip that was made in the year 2000 and is about gaming, i think it is much better presented than other new Fox news crap like documentary videos. so here you go: on this topic you can read posts from pG players, Maynard, NTT and other old school players. enjoy /bow why do they have so many thumbs down on youtube?

Yep the only thing I don't remember correctly is if Blackman was playing around the time Slayers was, because blackman had like 300 apm mostly playing against custom ai scripts for training and then traveling like 2 hours to the nearest lan center lololol

Because people mistake it for being a documentary about the metal band Slayer. When they find out its really about a skinny nerd playing computer games, they pump their skinny pale fists against the computer screen because of the HUGE letdown. Poor guys. It can not be easy sharing the spotlight with GG99 Slayer.

I think that was kinda later than 1999-2000 era. Btw i remember seeing blackman in some news in tv after wcg succes or was it in press ?

Damn I remember my first time watching this, was during studyhall in 8th grade there was like half the class surrounding the comp while the teacher sat at her desk reading.
Too bad we don't have those stylist spacesuits anymore, they were so sexy

Just watched it again..wow, what a life time ago. I sure miss those days of playing starcraft, with no responsibility or problems or anything. Just pure and simple enjoyment.

holy crap. slayer is such an old school bw player.
I remember him from back in those days, even before boxer came up.
This guy is my favorite non korean player of all time. Incredibly talented and awesome player. As time went on, he wasn't around as much, I think at the time I just assumed he lost interest in bw or had other priorities.
