Minigun? Average? Are you kidding me? Minigun is quite talented. Especially for someone who has only started playing RTS games with SC2. You may consider idra better, but please don't talk bad about great players. #1 in NA is nothing to scoff at, even if it is just ladder.
Are you really trying to use ladder as a way to judge, 95% of pros use ladder just to practice mechanics. NesTes even said ladder was a joke for him.
Minigun is average in that is not really accomplished much. Maybe if he keeps taking games off of other big name players or takes a medal in a big tournament he move up in my books but as of now he is an average protoss
I understand how he hasn't won any tourneys yet, but thats still no reason to consider him a lesser player. I've observed both Idra and Minigun and their both great players, and I'm confident that when Minigun starts playing tourneys he'll start giving out good results. Sure you may consider ladder a joke but again, you can't scoff at rank 1 in NA. Some other pro's haven't gotten near that close.

Combat-ex was once rank 1. /argument
OH SHI- That is a valid point though. I guess that means Minigun is average after all because Idra said so.

Rank 1, wow, that's pretty depressing. He must have been on fire that day, canon rushing man, woman and child alike.
I just thought of a new dieting idea: every time you feel the need to eat, just remember that Combat-ex- eats food. That'd put me off my dinner.

I not saying minigun is bad, he is just a middle of the road protoss tell he has consistent, hard results. He just does not have a record long with enough big names that he has beat to say he is a "good" protoss or not.

Anyone get the feeling that he wasn't joking when he said I'm sorry I can't understand. Incontrol did it several times during his interview. Maybe he misheard.
Oh that's an awesome interview. I'd go download the replays and watch if it wasn't 4:30 in the morning. Why am I here?
Probably will miss most of IdrA's games tomorrow, but if he can take out MC, SeleCT, and Ret, he should have no problems with the rest of his group. IdrA fighting, and good night fanclub.
