Well I think Rommel is a good one lot of interacting between different aspects of Mind. But I am awaiting for "Ike" now. :p | ||

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. | ||

I hate him. I liked it when he beat Bisu, I was happy for him, but now when I see how people praise him, he makes me sick. Yes, because of his fanbase. Screw single minded terrans. When Bisu stole his gas, he got raped like a noob. So if you take him off-course he's dead. Not impressed. Plz dunt ban me. | ||

I think he fought EXCELLENT that game. He was calm, positioned his SCVs so well that bisu couldnt kill him with mass zealots! His defense was briliant! It was one of the better defenses against gas steals imo. | ||

What more do you expect from a man like him? He was honorable, respected his opponents, did his best to obey the rules of war. To ask anything more out of a general that would be immediately executed if he stepped out of line is unrealistic. | ||

(I really resent Boxer using his popularity to promote the korean military.) Rommel was indeed a member of the Nazi party, and one of Germany's most prominent/successful generals. Sure, he was caught up in the initial rush of party fanaticism - but in early 30's Germany, who wasn't? Despite his status as a Nazi, he was consistently regarded by both his own men and his opponents as chivalrous and honorable. I mean, he resisted many of Hitler's immoral execution orders, treated most everyone as humanely as possible, and even protested mistreatment of Jews. All those things were, essentially, political suicide, but he was still willing to do it. After his implied association with the Hitler assassination plot, it was all over for him. Rather sad way to go. | ||

Oh I'm sorry, all i saw were 4 scvs not mining because of 2 zealots, then a failed m&m push vs ZEALOTS and some goons, then getting raped by a solo dt. My bad. I'm not saying he sucked, but he didn't fight EXCELLENT, if he would have fought EXCELLENT he would have WON. Instead he lost. Bad. He tried something "strange" and good for him, but he got violated. Also there have been other matches when he goes bad after getting set back. He seems to lose his pace when he is faced with something unexpected. Unlike boxer or that guy from pimpest plays 2002 who floated his cc in his opponent's base and then blocked the zealots out. </flashback> | ||
