Hello TL!
For those of you that don't know FoxeR was once a progamer on the MBC team using the ID Clare[Shield], and he used to upload his replays to the Who is Who on iccup thread here on teamliquid! I saved the replays over a couple seasons of iccup and put them into a pack now that someone asked me to see them. There are 116 in total, mostly all vs progamers.
An interesting note, looking back at an old who is who thread just now I realised Iron (oGsMC) Used to use the smurf name NesTea in broodwar....Strange!! link (Under MBC)
Oh, and his ID on teamliquid is ljh711. Send him a message, maybe he still visits here!
And here are the replays! [url blocked]
Updated replay pack with the link provided by zimp, better sorted and slightly more replays.

thanks alot, now i will study his replays to learn how to marine micro as good as him.

+ Show Spoiler +Oh snap, ex-pro BW reps.
Let's see how many people will actually look at the replays besides just posting randomly saying "KTHX I CAN SEE HIS MARINE MICRO NOW"

Perhaps zimp and romad were wrong about the true identity of the NesTea account? Or maybe there's some other backstory... Or it's just a coincidence.

Played Toss in BW, lol.

Very interesting that both Foxer and Rainbow found success switching from P to T in SC2. Both got to consecutive top 8s and in Rainbows case top 4 two seasons in a row.
Thanks for the rep pack and I will enjoy.

BW still requires micro im sure, actually alot more micro than sc2. This way i can analyse his micro in BW and try to implement it in sc2 for marines.
And Yes, he did play protoss in BW, which leads to the conclusion that he learned to micro marines in sc2 from playing protoss in BW.

Mind control SCV -> make marines.

I never realized that replays in BROODWAR showed you clicks and such.
I also didn't realize ZEALOTS and DRAGOONS required as much carefulness as MARINES who have less hp.
please, stop arguing.
and thanks for the replays. I hope I can learn how to execute some BOs from these (and how to play PvT/PvP)

Protoss can marine micro? o.O This is news to me.
Thank you OP for the reps! A reppack of over 100 pro gamer games, how awesome is that! Especially since all of them contain protoss.

Wow, he did? That's pretty awesome and cool of him..

wow at all the sc2 forum dipshits that dont read replies in this thread o_o...thanks for the reps though, always nice to see more pro BW player reps <3

Now bear with me - this might sound crazy, but just give me a moment - maybe he learned to micro marines in SC2 by.. microing marines in SC2.
OT: Thanks, these should be an interesting curiosity, but honestly I don't expect much..

But no one is as good as he is in marine micro. If they were somewhere near his micro skills, you would think they would do what marineking would do. But no, they don't because they can't even though they want to, hence his 5 kills in gisado stream.

I wonder how SC2 will look when the real pros switch over. As old b-teamers pretty much is the best as of now in SC2

I suggest you go back to posting in the SC2 forum.

All those nick names (old and new) are totally messing with my head. clare->boxer->foxer->marineking.. or? iron (aka nestea somehow?? - isn't that zergbong?) -> MC Man, I wish people (by people I also mean the fans) would just stick to their original nick names... :S When watching BW we don't care if they change their nick. Iris is Iris, not berserker. Baby isn't "ty". Goojilla (or wtf it is) is Kal and fucking tall. The only exception is if you have a huge (and amazing) fro.
Anyways, thanks for the replays!
|
Well they weren't changing their names in the case of the who is who thread, they were just using fake id's so people couldnt track them easily.
|
MarineKing never went as Foxer either, that was only his community-bestowed nickname.
Also yes Iris is Berserker and Kal is Goojilla etc. BUT the foreign community specifically chooses not to adopt newer (often more terrible) names, i.e. the curious case of Casy, or even the more obvious free[gm] -> pretty[gm].
|
here's a better pack [url blocked]
|
jimmi, I know about smurfing.  panorama, I also mentioned the fans as the people calling out the names. The problem with "marineking" is naming youself boxer is just bad, which made "foxer" his primary name in the community. However, it isn't "b/foxer" anymore and marineking is a fucking terrible nick he probably won't stick with.
Solid and recognizable nick names please. A nick name is never epic to begin with anyway - Flash certainly pimped that word right up.

He only used the ID Clare in BW, in SC2 he changed his ID originally to EllenPage, then to BoxeR. People didn't like that he "stole" boxer's name to ladder with, so they called him FoxeR (fake boxer), though that was never one of his actual IDs. His current ID that he changed to is MarineKing.
To be fair though, all of those IDs are awful. :p I wish he just stuck with Clare.

As a big fan of his insane sc2 play, I'll watch his bw rep, even if protoss, that should be interresting, thanx OP. edit : he's 3rd this week; his ID = 베스킨라빈스

Yes thank you for standing up for me, was real nice of you, and yes I am 2.1k diamond player ( your pretty accurate about my points and league even though I don't know you).
I am merely just theorycrafting about marineking's micro origins. My theory has good chance considering how other players who played Terran in bw and sc2 doesn't have near good micro as marineking. Idra played Terran in bw no jokes and now his a top Zerg. You guys are too superficial thinking that playing race x for bw will help you in sc2 for race x. Well stats show it's not like that all the time.

Hrm...a Pro replay pack that contains all protoss games. This is definitely something I could use. Time to install sc on my laptop and watch these replays everywhere I go! =P (I'm kidding about the "Everywhere I go" part, of course)

Just curious, what happened to the supposed "Optimus" tag he was going for [OptimusPrime] instead of now MarineKing?

ok i typed it wrong, i did not mean that. I don't want this to end up with flaming so i will just say it straight: 1. How did MarineKing get his micro to be what it is today?
2. If he just obtained this skill after practicing sc2 long, how come the other terrans can't follow suite?
3. This is a really interesting case so should i make a thread about this?
4. Does practicing micro with any units apart from marines in BW help me micro marines better?
5. Bottom line: i want to practice to micro marines like MarineKing

Jeez, frod seems to be such an epic troll, even if it was on accident.
OT: Great find, although he wasn't exactly the top tier of pro gamers, he was a progamer nontheless. Can't wait to check these reps out.

Oh gosh. I really meant that for #4, marines don't help with your marine micro at all either simply because no unit in the entire game behaves like marines in SC2. In BW, marine micro was more about paying attention to them and knowing when to attack and run away because macro was much harder. No point talking about SC2 at all...
|
I think people are a tad too harsh with the new kids. Argumentativeness is probably a survival mechanism on the SC2 forum. That said, this thread delivers 
Also, thanks for the replays, OP!
@frodo: BW micro, as people have pointed out, can be honed on specialized custom maps. And if you want to watch it in games, you probably want Boxer (i.e. real Boxer) replays - MnM was his thing (there are, of course, many other examples out there)

Is 2k diamond....a big deal?
And I'm pretty sure terrans micro just as hard as zergs do in bw. Their units are fragile as hell. It's protoss that usually don't require the intense micro. Just putting it out there.

No, 2.1 k means you're not so terrible that people can spit on you, but not even approaching good yet. It is the very definition of a mediocre player currently. 2.1k diamond here.

Yup, toss units are the ones that dont require micro, definitely. Maybe upto gold league dude. At the highest level, protoss benefits the most from proper unit micro (especially FF)

I don't want this to end up with flaming so i will just say it straight: 1. How did MarineKing get his micro to be what it is today?
2. If he just obtained this skill after practicing sc2 long, how come the other terrans can't follow suite?
3. This is a really interesting case so should i make a thread about this?
4. Does practicing micro with any units apart from marines in BW help me micro marines better?
5. Bottom line: i want to practice to micro marines like MarineKing practice skill no no too bad All you really have to know about it. "too bad" Thats not very nice seeing as how you don't even know my skills and determination and passion to become a good marine micro guy. And you should put some effort into your post.
If you want to get better at microing your marines, go practice microing your marines. It is the best way to get better at it.
anyway, I'm pretty sure he also used the id Rex.IU for a while.

Didn't know it was that easy to micro marines in SC2 (didn't play much, sorry)

-_- ugh...
This is really cool, and I'll be DL-ing this later when I have more time, but some of the replies in this thread make my head hurt.

Awesome! Thanks for these Jimminy :D

Nice, I'll check the replays out, I have been meaning to improve my marine micro so hopefully this will help me out. Thanks.

That's harsh. By the way I recently started training Greco Roman Wrestling. Could get some tips from Clare's BW reps too.

Well, I've meaning to improve upon my posting skills here recently, and these BW Protoss reps should definitely help me I think.

Well this turned out funner than expected!

Went through the thread and noticed nobody posted this yet, so..
That says "Baskin-Robbins," which is a ballin' American ice cream company. And totally the most random fucking thing ever.

I went through the entire thread another time to see if there was a post I could reply to in an attempt to jump in on the actual conversation, only to find that there was none.
Perhaps this would have been better posted in the SC2 forums, since it's of basically no interest to the BW scene..

wow thanks alot for putting these up, must have been hard gathering 116 replays. Now to study these replays so i can improve my marine micro.
|
I read through the first page and came to the conclusion that this is the most stupidity filled thread on TL in a long time.
thx for the reps though, I might just watch them.

Thanks for the rep pack! Never knew FoxeR played protoss, then again I'm not that big of a fan of him anyway, but it would be nice to look through how he handled himself back in his BW days. Now if someone could release a rep pack of STC or Tester...
+ Show Spoiler +You guys are so harsh to the SC2 kids. Just let them have their fun for now, I mean we were all like that what? 10 years ago...Now that christmas has come around, I'm sure we'll be seeing more new players in SC2, and on these forums as well, so we'll just have to bare with them. People especially new to the pro-scene will look up to people like FoxeR and IdrA, but sadly these players were B-teamers, and those new to the scene will have to experience for themselves what a true A-class/S-class player is like by watching some of these Proleague games and what not. All we BW players can hope for is that BoxeR/NaDa/July win a GSL so people can check out their games back in their BW prime...I mean heck you got The Emperor and 2 Golden Mouse winners playing SC2, so there's still some hope for the future :D

I watched like 30 or 40 of these replays but i just don't see his gosu micro, or am i missing something? I'm not that good so i might be overlooking some of his micro, can anyone please tell me where he does his magic?

He played as BW protoss, he doesn't really need micro.

All of the games I've watched from this reppack (about 10) were some kind of all-ins - cannonrush,2 proxy gates, 14 nexus. This guy really can't play a normal game and his style in BW is as pathetic as it is in SC2, that's why he never was any successfull in BW proleagues.
User was warned for this post

So some progamers have accounts here? I thought Sea was the only one. Do we have any other confirmed Korean progamers here?

Well, this guy wasn't note worthy player until SC2 so I think it took a while to find out. But if there are other pros lurking in TL, i would love to know.
