Anyone who thinks that playing SC2 zerg at a high level is harder than playing BW zerg at a high level is dreaming, including jaedong. Maybe he forgets how hard BW is because he played it for so many years. Ask any of the current foreign zergs who are at the top of Europe and USA which they think is harder. There are SC2 zergs who can compete at an extremely high level while going to university full time like nerchio and Suppy. That would NOT happen in BW.

Uhh, the fact that The Tyrant has won multiple Starleagues and was the God of Zerg in BW, Imma go ahead and trust his word over a couple of forum users armchair quarterbacking.

I completely agree, BW is much harder.

EDIT: Just kidding. I think it's correct to continue comparing the games. They are similar in a lot of ways and a lot of good ideas can be (and obviously have) been taken from BW and applied to SCII. 99.9% of the time nothing happens as a result of a thread like this, but I think it's good to spark ideas and stuff. It's also interesting.

I think if you read a bit deeper into what Jaedong said you would find that his opinion is actually quite valid, and for you to dismiss his opinion of what he finds harder is just blatantly arrogant.

harder because it's easier and it's not possible to beat people purely on micro or skill alone. they made everyone be able to always have a chance, which is why it's harder for him.
