You know Mind was terran god at his peak?


Mind was so so good for so so long and noone really cared


It's because he was just so stale. Nothing entertaining, and nothing innovative. I mean yea Flash was boring for about a year or 2 with his mega turtle TvP but he added a whole new mentality to the matchup. There was really nothing to remember from mind other than he was a great player at one point.

Mind is far from good, in fact he is one of the worst Terrans playing right now. Linky.

Btw, can somebody remind me why Guemchi had 93% over Best and Pure? I know that he defeated Bisu in this one proleague game and RealPenguin made a huge fuss over that. But what else?

People give nicknames to players easily. When you think of Forgg, people call him the Time Attacker but reality was that he, while fairly good at timing attacks, was just exploiting a play style that people found difficult to deal with at the time.

Mind was a part of the era of the timing attack terran and they went out of fashion fairly quickly. At the time Mind definitely had more potential than Flash because he was actually good and putting out actual results (while fanboys were crying/laughing at Flash cheesing Bisu/himself out of the OSL) but after Flash's dual series with Stork there was no guessing who would become the better terran.

apparently he was 100% against bisu *last night* (referring back to realpenguin's article), then he went back to being mediocre. Well possibly after the allkill, kind of like Neo G Soulkey.
