I don't see many top Random players these days. Who was the greatest Random player of all time, and why are they so rare?

Uhm.. Testie?

Awsome thread by the way!! \

Edit: I should of read the second part... they are rare b/c it is much harder to memorize and practice 9 different possible matchups as appose to just the 3. Or that is at least why IMO

You can't really say who was the best random player, no one progamer ever stuck with Random for their whole career's.

ChRh > Terran
Giyom > Protoss

Race Pickers don't count as random players, so that leaves Testie out of the picture.

There are no random players anymore because there's no point of practicing 9 possible matchups. It's just too much to handle.

But, if you can say for it's time, ChRh and Grrrr.... were probably the best random players.

well, testie (and eriador) pick random enough to be considered a random player.

Even in the old starleagues grrr... and others map-picked and race-picked

Still agree that giyom would probably win though

Not to mention Monghwan aka Fantasy would total over any accomplished randomer. 9 MU's x 4 positions x 3 opposing positions = 108 total scenarios. Baaaaaaad news.

True true.

RvR on Monghwan GOGOGO!

And you'd still have to practice the other MU's though... because eventually you'd play those matches. You'd think, at least.

Eriador, because he is always random. (I think). And he makes things so entertaining.

Though I think if he were put into my position, he might choose half the time!

slayer could random pretty well if he wanted to imo he is the best, after that its really hard to decide with testie and many of the old players like grrr and sven who could random a lot so id basically say slayer #1 grrr #2 the rest 3 through whatever
