White-Ra vs. Tester: White-Ra, the granpa Toss is know that he likes to do a lot fo proxies, but can also play standard strategies. Tester on the other hand is Korean, so he most likely only plays standard - creative builds are only played by a few Koreans Idra vs. TLO Another Matchup of completely different players: Idra is the prototype of a (Korean) Macro-Beast. He has excellent Macro and Micro, but he clearly lacks creativity. I've never seen him playing some extra-ordinary strategies, he even rarely does cheese, which is sort of standard today. In the other corner we have TLO, the man brings back the "strategy" into RTS - playing very creative, non-standard builds which is not only very entertaining, but also very successfull. Probably over time this advantage will shrink when standards are established (just see how Boxer does against the Micro/Macro-Beats of todays korean BW Scene, I don't think there are more than a handfull of players that are nearly as creative as Boxer is), but right now I really enjoy seeing him play - he plays like I think RTS games should be played: It's about out-strategize and out-smart your opponnent, not simply by beating him with superior mechnanics. Both games gonna be really intersting and I hope Blizzard fixed Bnet2 till next Sunday. | ||

That Altitude game reminds me of "Dogfight", a game I used to love as a kid on the Apple IIe. Monochrome, planes in the sky, tiny little bullets, fast-falling parachutes when you got nailed, screen-wrap on all sides lol. Played it with a buddy for countless hours. | ||

Lets wait til the game comes out, and ladder is totally fixed along with balance changes etc, before we make such bold assumptions  . Guarenteed they are of the best in SC: Broodwar. This is a different game, and hasnt even been released.Will be some nice games to watch though! :D, thats if they dont get dropped. jeez whats your problem? They are 4 of the very very best SC2 beta players right now, there's no way denying that. No there havent been "4 tournaments" like you say in your other posts, there have been tons and tons of tournaments, and these guys have been at the top of many of them. It's also not about SC: broodwar at all.. how many people knew TLO aka ips.radio in brood war? All the popularity he's getting atm have only to do with his performance in Starcraft 2. Will these guys be some of the best players a few months after release? While it's pretty likely we do not know that for sure but we do know they are some of the very best right now. So why not let them battle it out in an invitational tournament. This is just positive in any way you look at it. hm I missed this post ^^ On May 24 2010 18:31 MayZerG wrote: guess your right | ||
