Lancer is back <3
Way back I was in a public game lobby for 1v1. The host was a decent confident Terran, the map Lost Temple. This was in a time where LT was already deemed old. In comes LancerX. I had never heard of this guy before. He didn't really say a word, but he wanted to play. I imagined it was a random noob trying to get a game vs a better player.
The host let him play. I'm obsing P12 vs T9. I'm remembering all the games I had played and watched on LT, I didn't expect this toss to have much chance if any at all. I decided to stay and reminisce old times and see how the Terran will absolutely pick apart the Protoss. LancerX gets an early shuttle. I imagined just so he can secure his expo's cliff. What ensued was LancerX being more vigorous than I had ever seen a Protoss play before. Instead of worrying too much about his own cliff, he was forcing Terran to react to him. If I didn't know any better, you could have told me that was Mini playing. Cannons on Terran's cliff, relentless stormdrops, zealot bombs and really compelling goon micro. The Terran was basically in his bases, on his side of the map, for the entire game. Getting no time to breathe falling behind bit by bit, slowly but surely getting completely crushed under the pressure. My mind was blown. I hadn't seen a Protoss dominate a Terran on LT like that before.
If lancerx can somehow muster the strength he showed that game again... We'd be in for a treat!

I take it the Terran player in question was not TopStar or Shinee? :D

Haha. The Terran was obviously no1 noteworthy, but the for the experience that didn't matter. I may make it sound better than it was, but Lancerx did play an incredible game that day. I was already well familiar with progamers, so it's not like it was the first time I saw a good player play BW.

Sweet. Group B is a Banger!

Thats a really heart warming story, thank you for sharing it (;
Also :must: is a bit of a legend and lovable, fun guy for the russian reps.ru and defiler subscene. Im always happy to see guys like him come back, players who not only play well but have a positive impact as a person.
