I always understood Rommel's strategies as offensive and aggressive, so I don't know if that's entirely appropriate for mind. Well that is true for the desert part of his war. But in Normandie he actually stated that he was to use static defenses on the beach and loads of mines. Rommel fell in love of mines as a defensice tools. He also stated that if a massive unloading was to be countered it would have to be on the beach with good timing for panzer use. So if you refer to rommel during the desert part it should go to a very offensive tank user. If you refer to the Normandie part it could fit Mind but it isn't what Rommel did best in his life. (However if you strictly consider history it isn't really his fault considering he was at home at that moment.) | ||

Reasoning: His look (the glasses), his position while playing (so straight and his arms perfectly rectangular), his youth. He also clearly did his homework, preparing for two of the most successful players in starcraft, exploiting that he had lots of material to work with while the others did not. He does not win through fancy style but through thouroughly doing what he puts his mind on. I do not like robot-terran, that makes him look too mechanical and especially according to the interview posted he is human after all. | ||

Basically he took out 3 Bonjwas in this tournament. I kindof like Rommel, except Mind doesn't strike me as much of a nazi. I like Scholar Terran.. ::shrug:: | ||

The Terran who defeated Bisu in the GomTV MSL S3 Finals?" I'm shocked btw how many ppl here find the Nickname "Rommel" not even acceptable but cool. He was a fucking Nazi goddamn it. Besides I don't like analogies to real military leaders to BW players. (I really resent Boxer using his popularity to promote the korean military.) | ||
