And all this started with someone bumping this thread every time forgg won a game vs some bad code A player, so I guess now it will continue every time he gets his ass handed to him.
Err and where did I say people doing that was a good thing? I didn't like it when Hot_bid bumped, can't say on the other occasions because I don't remember then
And you do realize that by doing stuff like that you just reduce yourself to your level?

Reducing myself to my level eh? I guess I should start reducing myself to someone elses level instead? And yeah of course it was stupid to bump this whenever forgg won, but I feel it's a good thing to now bump it whenever he gets his ass handed to him so that people who bumped it when he won can see how stupid they were acting. Honestly, not only do I think this thread should've died a long time ago, I think it should've been deleted as soon as it was made because the OP and basically the whole thread is just beyond awful and doesn't spark any sort of good conversation.

All it will take is the mild success of one BW player, and the pro-elephant people will say that they're right. It will eventually happen. It's inevitable. That's why I classify it as a coward's opinion.

haha correcting someone grammatical errors in a post when u know exactly what they mean lol....i think you have sunk to a brand new low...
on topic <3 watching the SPL makes me want Flash to switch over LOL!!!

Hahaha people are still arguing in this thread. Do you really think you are making new points that haven't already been said 50 times? No, you're not so smart that you have a new perspective on this, sorry.

Did you know that SuperNova was a BW pro? He cleaned up ZeNEX and is in Code S RO16, please add that to the spoiler. I love it when people take individual, isolated results and apply it to this thread.
Like when everyone wanted to take forgg's 6-0 w/l in Code A and say he was the GOAT and was going to destroy everyone in Code S blah blahblah.
With that being said, in general, CURRENT BW A-teamers would probably mop the floor with non-GSL finalist caliber players.

I think the money part of the OP is still relevant now..... it's a strange situation. There is more money in the BW because it has been around so long. That money will NOT move over to the SC2 scene until BW comes to an end. It is very difficult for both to coexist with huge contracts and prize winnings.

i´m looking forward to higher level of play in leagues like GSL. I´m also looking forward to a stronger europe or american scene because competition is the only thing that will drive this game forward. thats pretty much how our society works and a competitive game, i guess, doubles that effect.
the outside of korea is building infrastucture for players. set up korean style of training outside of korea. i think this is often overlooked because we have not seen any massive impact in the scene because of team houses. also ive never seen so much professionals in the gaming secene in europe or america as we have today so why should a switch from sc1 koreans destroy just everyone.
if you train as hard as the sc1 players do, which you will have to do in the future, it neutralizes everything someone has done before. yea maybe mechanics and descicion making of sc1 players may be better but this game wont die in 2 years so no one could catch up.
to me this thread is just a "you dont know how hardcore sc1 is so lemme tell you sc2 players are all lazy fools". i dislike this attitude besides all the good points there are to have this mindset.
all it takes is a team in a house with an internet connection and alot of passion and a good work ethic. there can be new talents popping up every second. maybe even a foreigner who can, with the right setup, go over to korea and dominate flash in sc2? why not? maybe someone we already know his name but just didnt had the possibility to focus and play the game enough.
right guys? right?
not? 
ok i go back to my corner..

Last time he won was in code A, yup he's REALLY tearing up the SC2 scene lol. The rest won't do much better.

Current BW players will not have any good SC2 practice and will get owned by current SC2 pro. And when they are not in their prime anymore and switch to SC2, BW fanatics will just say that they're not current BW players...
Do you know that Huyn can't even mop the floor against ToD? So much for instant switch and a little practice and dominate the scene eh. Wait let me guess, Huyn is just a washed up BW pro.

Alot of high level sc1 pros have been caught playing sc2. And seriously practice it aside from bw. its not accurate. Also I think hes assuming they would switch and practice sc2

I can see it all now. A year from now flash switches over to SC2, proceeds to get roflstomped, 1eris1: "Comparing flash to current A-teamers is stupid, he never achieved anything, i now disown him as a star because he didn't dominate the Sc2 scene like the awful thread predicted"
