The whole discussion about this has evolved so fast from what it started out as a week ago. To be good on any map requires skill. There have been many ignorant posts attacking BGH players as a generalised statement, possibly based on a handful of public games? that none of them have any skill. This is far from the truth and in any case players will chose the map they want for their own personal fun, not beacuse a load of average players who like a different kind of map flame them. They seem to be forgetting the spectrum from first time noob to top gamer in thier field, occurs on every single map, the same goes for hacking. Hopefully the games will produce good reps and everyone will have fun... which is the most important. I get the feeling which ever team wins will get a whole load of people jumping on the bandwagon and just create a lot more useless flaming topics.

Good god, would you stfu about hacking? BGH players don't hack, any categorical statements are fucking stupid in this realm.

Also TemplarGoon, I doubt you'll win. Seriously doubt it. And your arrogant attitude is pretty amusing.

There is no reason to think that a skilled player, be it bgh or low, should hack. In a high level bw commutity the amout of hackers is probably around or even less that 1%

that is irrelevant. This is a team game.. and down to the coordination of the players regardless of individual skill they have to play well together to win

ok so u argue that fayth lost? havent u recognised that hes a moron, and overates himself and underates other people?

I know fucking ppl abuse hacks regardless, on bgh theres more abuse tho, and a PURE bgh player is gonna be weaker on non money anyway

wether u like me or not doesn't change the fact that i'm a good player, but none of the 2 players i played were PURE bgh players, Fauna who i have beaten in the rematch 3-1 told me he played about 5 000 games on "low money maps" making him far from a pure bgh player, same for Kural, he plays PGT here and then, none of the pure BGH players are nearly as good, they improved by practicing on low maps, then going back to BGH.

Wow...reading those BGH player comments really makes me embarassed...but they have quite a good and well-organized community; we should try reaching out to them.

Btw I can't understand why they could play so much regular maps and PGT and go back to BGHing...maybe its the community / ppl they hang out with? Or just because its easier to be good / less competition on BGH?
But Garimto was always more than just a Protoss...

I've play BGH all the times with my friends. But I never seriously played any PGT type maps. So I don't know about the "going back" part.

What I do know is why BGH keeps me entertained. The atmosphere is much more relaxed than a serious game of PGT. You could really play at your own pace. Because it much more simple than a PGT game. The terrain is essentially "dumb" down and the minerals let's you focus on macroing to win or microing to win. Or *Gasp* , even use your mind to win (making good tactical decisions).

And of course there are players who are good at all three skillsets, and will own you very hard. But because the atmosphere is so relaxed, this rarely happens (vs pubbies at least, it can get competitive with friends, but still relaxed).

i just watched 6 of those bgh reps, a nice break from the usual 45min long reps.
they're decent players, but not insanely good. i see them making mistakes now and then, even in macro and micro. Their bo's are funny tho, 3rd gate on 23/25^^.

I have played a lot of players on money maps, and they are still doing 1v1 builds that are completely not capable of putting up with a BGH 1v1. And you'd think that they wouldn't be so stupid as to 9/10 gate on BGH, despite there being 8 spots to scout.. and they have to get lucky and all that jazz.. but no, they do.

Shit, I never thought about building a earlier gate to scout faster. Man, this is why I love bw, learning something new everyday.

P.S.
Very insightful post Testie.
