Yes I can beat a pro-gamer, on a day of my best form and I'm playing the worst progamer on his worst day making the worst tactical and technical mistake in his entire career.

Hi I just wanted to say that I have beat a pro gamer, and in fact I have a winning record against korean pro gamers.

Well, I'd probably score 2 or 3 wins out of 100 in a series with someone of a lower-class progamer. (Casy PvT hah?) They train their timings and mechanics and many of them have lowered gameflow feel, thus they may get confused with my somewhat random and inefficient builds - i.e. prepare to cheese when I'm doing my standard. I can play ok when I catch my wavelength, so these two things can probably coincide at some point and I can score a win. With super-aggressive builds I might even score a "fair" win like Draco did vs Midas - he went pretty cheesy first reavering him, then DT'ing him and bringing him to the point where an average terran would just quit, and Midas still put up additional 10 minutes of very close fighting. These guys get better as the game progresses, so if I aimed at something that would score me an early win and got very lucky microing, then who knows.

Guys like Savior and Bisu, though... hardly. These peeps just understand the game a tad more than I - I simply cannot possibly do something that would surprise them. No, not Savior-caliber. Not in PvZ, at least. Sen scored a quick win in ZvZ, afaik. That is possible.

i don't think draco went with an initial reaver build, i think he went two gate proxy and pumped goons. and then took out midas' nat.

the thing is, come on, we play (well some of us) for fun, and these guys play professionally. it's like me trying to score on kobe bryant or something. blah, just my opinion.
