Stupid foreigners have degraded the meaning of the word gosu too much.

I played against oversky in PGT. Needless to say i got assraped so bad i never had a chance to go on the offensive (zvz), never made it any further than my nat, it was Nostalgia I think. So no, I don't think i could take even one game off him, his micro is just too godly and as long as he doesn't go 3 hatch before pool or something risky like that, there's no way I could beat him.

when i was at my best I certainly could, and I did beat some.

they were slightly worse than they are today though and I was also better. now say I played savior, I think I'd be more likely to go 0-20 than 2-18. 1-19 should be doable tho, and of course it would all depend on map.

actually I think I should be able to win pvt and pvp vs anyone more frequently than 5% of the time, but no vs z matchups.

No.

Only if he went for a quintuple expo without cannons and units, and I 4-pooled him.. but then again he wouldn't be pro.

So no..

Well if you play 10.000games vs progamers I hope you'll win more than one game. A guess is that you'd get pretty skilled after 9500games or so.

I was intrigued to read this in another topic...

...That's a pretty bold statement to make, not just because I changed the font to bold. Is anyone here confident enough to think that because they are in the 20% bracket of better Starcraft players think they could beat a real gosu (the big names) like Savior, Iloveoov, Nalra, Boxer, July, Nada... you get my point, say on Lost Temple, even once? Even Sen struggled to win a single game, and excluding South Korean progamers he's in the top 1%
. I know that's not what the OP was saying, but I just think he took the title gosu in vain and blasphemed.



lol 1 percent.. powned
no i dont think i can pown a gosu

:edit: god i hate editing typos
Dea : one time when he was playing vs the comps he asked me "how do I make that flying unit that makes the other stuff invisible" and I reply "ur playing terran zomg"

I did beat some semi-pros / practice partners of POS, but hell, that was before I stopped playing SC for 1.5 years (a long time ago )
Complete the cycle!
