wtf? Magma is terrible. Zero, Calm, and Effort are better zergs than him easily.

nearly every single tler has jumped the Magma bandwagon after Idra told us that he dominates people in practice games and just has to overcome his nerves to become the next top league player.

hope he is able to show his true side, if it really is that great,

lol I know what you mean but

is there any other likeable protoss right now? half of those names are just unknowns with a few proleague wins/losses here and there, the terrans do have a few more familiar names like SkyHigh & SaiR.

and NonY is far more likeable anyway <3

It was sarcasm, which evidently failed. His game against Hwasin was impressive, though. And I remember reading somewhere that maGma was said to be as good as Jaedong, but couldn't get over his nerves. Anyway, I still laugh whenever I see his name in the eStro lineup.

I still think great isn't getting enough attention. I remember watching his games against Mind in the Classic season 1 and thinking that he was going to bust out. I'm kind of still waiting for it to happen.

Magma was known for being a dominant player in practice loooong before Idra went to Korea.
