Clearly Flash is the only player in BW with a good work ethic. It's probably IMPOSSIBLE for bw players to switch to sc2 this late because..... sc2 is.. easier? I'm sorry, I don't quite understand. ForGG has been doing well too hasn't he, even with such a late switch. | ||

I'd give you 10:1 on that and still consider I was getting great action. Totally clueless if you think ForGG is the only progamer who is going to switch and make it to code S ro32. | ||

ForGG has been doing well too hasn't he, even with such a late switch. sc2 being easier is just an unprovable bias, not to mention that different people consider different things hard. else we all would be potential Bonjwas. and Fin didnt even switch late. he has been playing SC2 for nearly a year, as far as I have read in this forum. but yeah, i disagree as well. a lot of players in any high level competition sport/game would become great players if they switched to SC2 (or BW). But I'm not superhyped for something that's not likely to occur at all. As long as BW is succesful, switches and domination of top50 BW players are less likely than the switch of a retired sportstar or manager or someone else with good work ethic to SC2. | ||

sc2 is obviously easier. i mean... i cant move a 200 army in sc1... but..my little bro can in sc2. i can t macro in sc1 ( even after playing for over a year sc2 ) but it s easy in sc2 ( i mean... but a fucking rally point and click 2 buttons every now and then ). But i'm happy about that. I m happy that i feel thta my decisoins are far more important, then that i can fucking micro mini unit groups etc. i'm happy i can play this game somewhat high dia even though i don t play crazy much. i think it's good for a bigger community from scrub to pro, it hink it s good for "esports". And there's still so much to improve in sc2. when i see gsl army smicroed, its so often so shit, banelings popping on tanks. no marine splits, even big supply blocks. it s just the beginning, 2 expansions, 99% of people playing not near any skill cap what so ever... seems like 250 pages people identifiying their ego with "who play the harder game". sc1'er be happy u had such a great game and u love it. do you have to prove anything? u should be all quite "old" compared to the sc2 noobs, why do you behave like some elit a**es? and sc2 people could just aknowledge the great skill that went into bringing a game, with shit mechanics, on such a high level. love and peace? the people that are tpo at the moment are the top existing sc2 players on earth in this moment. everything else is hypothetical and i wonder why u care? <3 | ||

I know Flash is a no-brainer but ruling out his entire competition? LOL | ||
