I just hope that short break isn't like just a few months. It'll be great to see Bisu playing BW again, and from FPVIEW! OMG!

He seems to be in better form than Jangbi atm, judging solely from the game where Bisu pretty much humiliated Larva in that one game on Larva's stream.

I mean it's just 1 game in 1 matchup, but it's kinda important to be good at PvZ atm. Jangbi has been kinda out of form in that department.

If anyone remembers those times that they have flashed up Bisu's FPView briefly in official games, and marvelled at how good his multi-task is, imagine that hours on end. We are going to get migraines from watching his stream :D

So hyped for this, migraine toss gogo! :D

My experience in watching Bisu's FPVODs is similar to my experience when I played Quake 3. At first, I couldn't stand more than 3 minutes of it. I had no idea what the fuck was going on, it was headache-inducing, and it seemed almost inhuman to play at a decent level, let alone a professional level. Afterwards, I got used to the game and then enjoyed it. Later on, when I got better, I realized just how amazing the little things are: from memorizing the ramp/portal positions (similar to rally points for probes and units) so you can jump into them without looking at them, to the small strafe moves that can make or break your game (probably like Bisu's small unit micro with goons and lots), to the absolutely flashy plays with rails and rockets (like Bisu's harass with reavers/HTs).

Bisu's FPVOD is the cleanest of all the "inhuman mechanics" monsters I've seen (i.e. Jaedong, Baby, Jangbi, Kal, Effort, Hydra, Leta) and is probably the second most impressive to watch behind Flash's FPVOD (the kid is just so efficient at playing it's mind boggling - I think his EAPM from the replays of his prime is just as high as Bisu's, around 250, even if Bisu's APM is 100 higher at 350 vs 450).

Bisu's apm is on average low 300's most games, I think he only gets to 400 average on really really intense games, in his early/mid career, by his late career he and Flash are pretty much the same speed APMwise (Flash is actually faster when playing bio). He gets a reputation for being really really fast, but he's actually not. I mean his APM is up there, but it's actually lower than some other protosses (eg Jangbi, who's between 350-400). It's really the rate that he switches from 1 place on the map to another that sets him apart. He only does like 1 or 2 things in 1 place before switching again, so it's really hard to keep up with what his doing, but his handspeed is not superdooper fast like people seem to think it is.

If I were to take a guess, Flash and Bisu actually have similar EAPMs as well, which I guess is impressive in itself, as P's generally have lower EAPMs since there are few things to do that require pure handspeed, whereas T has stuff to do en mass that requires mechanical 'unthinking' clicking, eg placing a large minefield or keeping a large number of raxes running.

      This sums it up really well for me. Being just a little older then bisu it feels like I just lost a childhood friend. I probably won't be posting or be around TL for a while now. I'm going to take this time to finally take a break from Starcraft. I'll still do my TL Staff work, but that may be it for a while. As a favor, instead of people mentioning how some of you dislike Bisu (whether it be him, his play, or because of annoying fanboys ) when its not necessary to point out, take the time to appreciate someone who had a large impact on your favorite game instead. I'll say more in a blog when I return. This is the end to a great chapter in my life and I'm very happy I got to share it with all of you on TL.
