I don't care about who wins and who loses much. I just enjoy seeing strange out-of-the-box strategies and crazy macro/micro. Reading through it more carefully the second time I do think I get the point now; and it seems to apply a lot to what I love seeing. When competition gets too fierce there are very few big icons left that everybody knows of... I'm guessing David Kim on Starcraft 2 does give a small scale example of this! While he's no tournament champion of any kind he's a ton ahead of everybody else, and does all kinds of crazy tricks. I'm far from the only person who bursted out laughing seeing his endless sea of Banelings. I've heard people on livestream even jokingly say "Oh God! Not him!" when matched against him. Yet soon the community will know way more tricks than he does and he eventually becomes nobody special as far as his playing skills go. Just a random cool guy. That's a very interesting read! Kind of lengthy though.  | ||

Truly, the current generation with Jaedong, Flash, Stork, Bisu and so many others is the pinnacle of professional e-sports. I wonder if we should be seeing too many games on the caliber of Stork vs Jaedong from two nights ago, or (what should have been) the Nate MSL finals for a long time to come. | ||

As for taking a while... I started work on it just after this post- On October 09 2009 19:02 Alethios wrote: One of the great traditions here at teamliquid is that of contributing something significant for one's milestone posts. We've seen in depth analysis, interesting one-off tournaments, teamliquid projects and much more. I feel it’s a small but important part of what makes this site such a great resource with such an amazing community. .... My plan is a series of blog posts touching on a variety of topics chosen by you guys. This'll culminate in a starcraft related post that'll hopefully somewhat channel the awesomeness of a final edit. So yeah, roughly 4 months. Had only planned on it being a blog post at first. It took a while before I had the essence of it. I showed it to Plexa in November or so, who thought riptide might be interested. Riptide suggested some avenues for further development and I finished up the last major changes the day before getting on the plane to Paris. Over the next month the piece was finalised with some little help from my friends and forum veterans.
