Either way, point I was trying to make is that if you could be an S-class (top like..0.001% of all players) that mechanical skill and ingrained creativity would easily help you pick up any RTS. NaDa is far from S-Class atm. Not even B-Class. I would say winning five for your last 10 makes you B-Class - he's been relatively average as of late. Not that we really separate anything beyond S and A-class anyways -_-. Also, we are talking about the most successful progamer of all time. I would wager he could beat any foreigner at broodwar - prior to sc2 coming out - in a BO3.

Most BW pros only barely manage a 50% winrate anyways :\ Either way, it should be awesome.

Someone should make a gg button v2 :D and give it to NaDa :D Damn I hope NaDa is planning to play sc2 professionally in the future.
|
hm.. I will root for NaDa there of course.

Oh hey, it's only the greatest BW gamer of all-time coming to play a show match.
I wish I could there to wash his feet and carry his bags.
|
haha :D maybe i should go
|
I don't think the introduction to Nada was needed. If you don't know who Nada is then you're on the wrong site! Anyway, really awesome!
|
Go TLO! Man, just a couple of months ago HD introduced this guy in his videos as some unknown creative player, who does well in tournaments despite playing Random. And almost in a blink of the eye, the man is officially a progamer, going to Korea, and playing showmatch with Nada. This is so awesome! TLO setting an example of unimaginable dreams coming true, and so fast!

Believe it or not... diamond is top 6%
Yeah... I didn't think it was true at first either. Everyone seems to be able to get into diamond.
Skills are definitely transferable, and I wouldn't doubt it if Nada has been playing under a smurf account. Why else would he agree to play against a top player?

Greatest god damn brood war player ever.
|
tlo better get his exotic strategy on
|
I wish i had the english skills to properly describe how awesome this is.
|
O_O This is going to be awesome! I hope Nada has played a lot of sc2. TLO vs Boxer next! ^^
|
Wow... I never noticed Garimto had the trollface..... Also note that Saviors picture is the only one without colors.
|
hopefully this is going to be epic. Doubtful he has played sc2 that much though. If nothing else then it's still one of the greatest bw-players of all time doing a showmatch in sc2. Either way it's something to watch most def.

Rofl are you serious? Do you think this is some kind of competition? The players know that and want to put on a good show, which they hopefully will do. Thats the purpose of a showmatch, you know? TLO can be very entertaining at times and NaDa... well it's NaDa and I think it's quite sad that ppl. don't appreciate what he has achieved. yeah a good show with a guy who played some showmatches only. mb not knowing every unit ! . will be fun. how do u know how much experience nada had with sc2. besides im certain tlo wont be tvting so i think it wont be as one sided as u seem to think. he played in PL and such not 2 long ago. so u rlly think he would have played in PL if he would train SCII instead of BW?.

I hope TLO will take it easy and have long games.

Words cannot describe how infinitely AWESOME that is.
