Maybe Sun is better at adapting to this different style than JangBi is. Do you even have any proof that flash stated this? Or did you just "hear it in some interview video and now you can't find it."? | ||

Wish granted: Q: Terran is the strongest race in BW. But Protoss is stronger in SC2. Have you thought about changing race? Flash: I am still regretting about that even to today. When I first played SC2, I was already thinking that Protoss is really good. Even now I still think that. The management of SC2’s Protoss is exactly the same as BW’s Terran. First, you defend, then you produce your composition, and then move out. The most urgent thing about SC2’s Terran is to ameliorate mech. In BW, going bio or going mech is a choice and will make your opponent guessing and confused. But now SC2 is 100% bio, so you can’t play mind game and you don’t have strategic choice. From this thread, a mere 10 days ago. And to his point, other people have stated in interviews a while back that Terran would fit Bisu better, but that is something I don't remember with any degree of accuracy or can be bothered to scour for. It might've been Coach Park, it might have been some Kespa pro, I don't know. | ||

I can verify he said this, that SCII protoss plays like BW terran. "Q: Terran is the strongest race in BW. But Protoss is stronger in SC2. Have you thought about changing race?

But seriously, I'm surprised that there aren't more KeSPA players retiring right now(I guess we will see over the coming months). To be honest, though, I felt little emotion when I saw this news, but I think that's because I chose to not see SC2 as a legitimate successor to BW, but as an abomination that arose after BW was sacrificed on the altar of ESPORTS by Blizzard. Here's a game of Jangbi that I subbed more than a year ago if anyone's interested: Here is the associated thread if anyone's interested in that as well. | ||

Just one other: I don't think I'll be subbing any more games, though. I already went over to "the dark side." That's right. SC2 was so appalling for me that I went over to LoL. | ||

Can't watch right now. Is it the game with the epic commentary with how it's Protoss last stand, just like in the campaign etc? | ||
