There was also a game where Boxer used valkyries just a short time before Fantasy started to. In addition, I think he used Valkyries a long time ago, don't really know if it was effective or not though.

Damn kids. Boxer represent yo, only time will tell how good he becomes but he clearly brilliant + army time probably helped him mature even further as a person. If he tries to become dominant I'm sure there is a chance for him. He has a lottttt of experience which will help when he is caught up on playtime.

The only reason i got into competitive starcraft, TL, the pro gaming seen, is because of Boxer. He is a legend beyond all other legends and even if he plays bad compared to pros these days, he will always be good.
Funny, boxer is the reason I left competitive play. I would play everyday trying to become as good as possible around ~2001'ish. I thought I was doing really good, I could beat everyone on my small circle of friends and had joined a decent clan. Korean vods didn't seem that far away from the observer point of view. Until I saw a boxer fpvod. He clicked faster than I could type. And I concluded, no matter how much I try, I simply cannot practice enough to get THAT fast. I will never beat someone who plays like THAT. I will never be the best at this game.

That day I quit playing starcraft. Now I only spectate ^^

he has actually beat Flash and Bisu in competition...who are arguably two of the greatest players for their respective races of all time...obviously he's not better than them, but for an old legend to go toe to toe with the best players of today in ANY sport is remarkable.

The guy who got me into the pro-scene asked me this: "Do you know Boxer?"

I was summarily enlightened and haven't viewed Starcraft the same since.

Basically Boxer is a god in a man's guise.

I recall reading a while back that Boxer had the best TvT record during one of his proleague seasons even though he was on Ace. That's pretty impressive.

I dont think he could ever get bad? Hes just not in shape as he used to be. He might just be playing iccup by now.

Anyone remember the Boxer vs Rekrul game? Some fun game at Rekruls place. Anyways that replay really shows how good Boxer is TvP although it's his worst MU by far in pro-gaming.

But Nada is the most consistent player of progaming history ever and he still continues to be a relevant player, which Boxer completely fails at.


Dont ever compare the emperor to nada.

IDC, what anyone of you think. Boxer will always be a god of starcraft and noone will never ever get anywhere close to what he once was.


Boxer is the most successful SC player ever (I doubt anyone is going to get more titles than him).

It's a shame to compare Boxer with Nada.


Oh dear, a typo. Fixed it for you.

Thats like not ever playing basketball even though you enjoy it just because youll never be able to do a dunk from the freethrow line

Nada is much more accomplished than boxer.

Pretty obvious...

Boxer will never be "bad", especially in comparison to a normal player. I mean he still HAS programer micro/macro, and he still roflpwns Korean A rank players on iccup, its just the fact that the other progamer competition is so much stronger because the methods of practicing used by progamers tend to improve them as players.

lol Nada > Boxer always.

Although Boxer might have sparked professional Broodwar, iloveoov has arguably done more for the game.

Also, this. Boxer was a trailblazer who changed the way we think about the game today, but if we have to pick the player with the greatest all-around career in the history of sc progaming, it's clearly Nada. Many others are comparable in their breif prime, but he's outlasted EVERYONE in terms of durability and consistency.
