Yeah, what's with all the hating??? If you don't like a player you dislike him, but hating is just too harsh.

Goodfriend is boring, standard, and shows no creative strength. He simply takes down favorites often by generic means and ends up losing horribly in the end to a superior player. Disappointing, boring, and 75% of all terrans players play simliarly to his standardized game sense. O man, I love how shark raped him with 6 hydras and 6 lings vs 10 marines lolol.

You can call him "fun" when he does the precision rushes timing pushes, but when it comes down to hectic micro and strategics, he falls short.

You can be more further from truth.
He is one of the most strategical players around.He use smart builds which usually exploits opponents standard build and habits.

I like people like.You read something and then repeat it to no end like copy-cat.

it's very hard to be solid. Being a solid terran means having a really good understanding of builds and knowing what to do vs everything. Starcraft isn't an art competition, the goal isn't to think of cool cheese and showing off how many scvs you can kill with muta harass.

He loses to a superior player? I dont know man he sure makes it to near the finals a lot, quantitively I find it hard to reason that there are many players who are superior to him, because he can take games from ANY of the top 30 gamers on Kespa and has shown it. I find his TvP to be pretty damn creative in its standardness. And the Shark game.. Everyone loses to something all-in once in a while. : ]

Bottom line is that dude aint the mumyung of Terran that people make him out to be. Rekrul perhaps further popularized(WIth "BadFriend") hating on him than already was taking place.

i mean everyone has the right to dislike or even hate a player even if he's good. (a la Kobe Bryant) But it's probably better to realize the strength of their play as well.

GoodFriend is very quietly spectacular.

His prepared strategies are never really flashy like Boxer, oov, or Nada, but he manages to use the most simply effective builds for each matchup and map. His wins always look easy, like he's taking care of some pubbie, when he's actually facing the best pros out there.

returns upon momentous occasions.
