I just had a random, filthy thought of me becoming super rich, then paying tons of money to invite TBLS to my mountaintop mansion for a weekend to hang out in a jacuzzi while playing Super Smash Bros. No items, Fox only, Final Destination. XD

Whatever they'll be doing, it'll be interesting to watch. Personally, I just hope that the Blizzcon Invitational will stay on-schedule with minimal delays even with random showmatches being thrown in.

You know what? Blizzard indeed should put SC2 showmatch and destroy Bisu and co. so bad that people no longer care what happens to BW pros. Most realpolitik solution ever.

That is why I'm asking .. You can call it whatever you want. You may find this 'elitist' but I'm far from it. I just want to know if these theories are either baseless or does carry some weight because people from SC2 fanbase have been posting it since the thread started and many of us here are like 'What?".

Also, I may have a reason why you think BW fans are defensive about this.

Because it's in the BW section and SC2 people are rampaging posting stuff some of us couldn't care less.

If this was in the SC2 thread, you would have less BW fans spewing what you call "crap".

I actually literally don't understand what you're getting at.



What irks me the most is that I don't understand why people say "Oh Jaedong no team? COME TO SC2!"

We're talking about a BW legend who currently is without a team because of the popularity of SC2.

Show some respect. There's definitely a sentiment that SC2 is part of the reason why Jaedong is currently without a team. It makes us feel worse when a group of people decide to come in and start spewing nonsense about how an amazing BW players should come into the SC2 scene when he brings so much talent and entertainment to a dwindling BW scene.

Jaedongs skill would be wasted playing starcraft 2. He will lose occasional games to idra or stephano even though his skill is about 100 times greater but the skill ceiling of starcraft 2 will turn him into a mortal. No one like flash or jaedong will dominate a player like nestea or mvp its not possible. There is nothing more a player can do to out play mvp he plays the game nearly optimally aside from a small mistake that loses him the game. Its just build orders now everyone can stutter step and the other forms of micro in the game now.

Likewise. Simply a waste of talent. Can you imagine Flash playing Terran as it currently is in WoL? Honestly, how much better could he play than Mvp? Not significantly, or at least to the extent of domination that earned the nickname "God" in 2010.

You're hopelessly mistaken if you think we're anywhere near the skillcap of sc2 right now. We've hardly even seen what is possible yet, and every other day we see something totally new showcased that has everybody scratching their heads. This game is in its infancy, and it's just broodwar pessimists who are saying otherwise in order to try and de-legitimize it.
