EPTAnd do you remember that Interview with a korean proteam coach? he said they were looking for pure skills, handspeed etc, guess if gurram started use hotkeys (which he most likely wont) but anyway, now he dont have any job anymore so he's gonna massgame alot, play the ladders etc, and I really hope to see him in TmG/mYm/SSV very soon cuz there's where he belong.

And ofcourse he klickes on p when he builds a probe or z for a zealot. But when he moves his units he slectes them with the mouse over and over again. wow.. no hotkeys at all :S | ||

gurram is good, sure thing, not top 5 foreigner p, hell not even close to top 10 foreigner. I will never understand how one can play without even hotkeying his units. It was one of the first things I did myself, I did it in like the SC game I ever played -_- and he DEFINITELY would profit from it, if he took the time to learn using them. As Eri said, you can't rush nearly as good PvZ without using hotkeys and as someone else said breaking pushes/contains in PvT must be a lot harder as well (same goes for breaking contain in PvZ). There is NOT disadvantage at all using hotkeys, it ONLY has advantages, it's just so NATURAL to hotkey your units.... | ||

Agreed, PvT is very playable without hotkeys it's just a complete different style of management. Many toss players hotkeys their buildings only esp in PvT TvP can also be played with very little hotkeys ( esp if your style is slow push / macro ) but I can't think of someone who would be able to play semi-pro level TvZ without hotkeys | ||

I would say hes easily one of the best protossplayers out there, I dunno about top5 though, but when I list them I cant find alot players that are better than him. Would be.. Fisheye,draco, and uh.. Rekrul maybe. | ||

 I use to play with no hotkeys up until about 1.5 years ago, honestly I could play PvT just as good as I do now without them but PvZ is just a little bit harder but just selecting and re-selecting isnt as bad as everyone thinks. Often I go 1a2a3a4a like 2 times and not all of my groups move so I end up just drag selecting everything and moving it in.. | ||

Gurram playz zvp. Anyhow, that LX (aka PNZ=Legendary) guy who beat boxer, PJ and played to a draw vs Kingdom is probably better than gurram  ! But, other than that I dunno o_o There's really not as many great protoss players as there once was even in europe so yeah. Top 5 sounds acceptable | ||

Whenever you look at a replay with some good toss and see that he only ever hotkeys his first scouting probe - it's bound to be gurram. And "inc." please just shut up. Anyone who knows something is entiteled to an opinion, and yes, mine and zpux etc are a bit biased but that changes nothing. Back when WSL was going on NO ONE knew him and I dled all his reps vs Oversky (2-1), Nal_GG (2-0), BlueK (1-1) not to mention all good non-koreans. Hell he had like 6-0 vs Zelotito ZvP and even record vs Willet in that ladder. And this TLT season, he would have made the playoffs if only he wouldnt have prioritised partying on 1st of may before TLT and let a friend of lesser skill try to manage it. Even though he didn't qualify he still beat for example yan 2-0 easy in the last days, while playing pretty even with most zergs. Since trek is inactive, this wasn't that big of a surprise to me. And he was not an underdog - he would have been an underdog if trek actually played bw. Other than that, I agree with Daaman. | ||
