He basically just maxes out on a unit then a-moves and then keeps doing that until he wins or loses. T_T However I do not support the argument that bw players are mechanics-only, but BW and SC2 are different games. Your skill can translate over to starcraft 2, but it can certainly not do it as well. bw skill does not = sc2 skill. that is the most stupid argument ever. a BW player most likely has a slightly bigger advantage over a player from wc3/c&c/etc. but just slightly. Yeah but Hyun was actually quite bad at BW too | ||

BW did not come out of the gate with prefect Builds and perfect mechanics and the epic insanely awesome play we see today. we are already see more and more thought out and "perfected" strategies. the game is still developing so seeing the best and most talented BW players switching over to SC2 will only mean that SC2 will reach the point BW is at faster and we will see better SC2 matches hopefully on the same scale of epicness of the BW games now. my advice give it a chance and time BW is not dead yet. This is assuming the games are equals in gameplay, strategic depth, etc. Years of COD won't make it Counter-Strike. SC2 has given plenty of time to develop, and it honestly hasn't in my opinion (beyond changing builds to suit various nerfs/buffs) It's just as likely (more so actually) that one game just plain isn't as good as the other. Either way it's getting its shot, whether you think it will flourish and start a new era of Korean esports or it's an albatross is irrelevant, time will tell. | ||

BW did not come out of the gate with prefect Builds and perfect mechanics and the epic insanely awesome play we see today. we are already see more and more thought out and "perfected" strategies BW isn't chess you don't move pieces to x and than check mate I win it isn't perfect . If it is flash would have a 100% win rate because his builds are some how always design to out play his opponent in which he can gain a significant advantage from there. Calm probably would have a 100% win rate because if you see his play he really put's time in to the strategy department.. | ||

BW was god damn awesome even in 1999. (For me at least). If SC2 sucks for me now,it will suck forever. And it doesn`t have to do anything with strategies,just the look and gameplay. | ||

No you and 99% of people who says that DO NOT understand, medieval aged BW was as exciting for people back then as it is now. Even pre-boxer era Grrr.... was highly regarded in Korean community then Boxer came and the hell break loose . People were fainting when they saw his marines/dropship antics on 1 base and 150 apm. IT WAS EXCITING And thats where the crux is, BW is amazing on micro and macro scale, because how fast paced SC2 is its hard to achive those micro scale glories you got in BW, by the 10 minute mark a dropship with 2 tanks is useless in SC2 while it still can give u a boner in BW. etc etc etc | ||

SC2 fans come here saying things like: "Give it time. You can't compare a game that has developed for 10 years with a game that only had 2 years". The thing is: BW has developed for 10 years (more actually), but the game was already pretty fucking good back then. The game didn't take 10 years to become good, it was great back then and has been great all the while. I also don't get this "let's enjoy SC2 now because one day it'll be good". What's the reasoning behind this? Hell, if one day SC2 actually becomes good, we'll enjoy it, but for now they should keep the BW leagues for BW is the better game now (and will probably always be). | ||
