MadFroG might've been more accomplished, but in his prime in BW he wasn't even as good as an average D player on iCCup right now. People were really bad at StarCraft (comparatively) back in the days. On the other hand, TLO reached A-. In terms of skills in BW, TLO was way better that MadFroG ever was, albeit less accomplished. lol.... the average D player? i got to c in a month.. | ||

After not playing for 5 years I could still get to B in TSL without any practice. Madfrogs skills from 2001 in no way translate to todays D or anything close to it. | ||

No shit you don't want to argue with him because you haven't got a leg to stand on. My conclusion was drawn from watching numerous WC3 players and tournaments. It is not a coincidence the top foreign players all have a history of BW. My thinking is not in the minority, pretty much every player who has a history in BW knows this to be true. And the results speak for itself. edit: typed this before Nazgul's post. Will stop now. | ||

I just have to point out one that and that's what Madfrog said in the interview. He mentioned how SC2 has a lot of more dimensions than Wc3 and I really must disagree there. I wonder what he thought about stating that. He said similar things about WC3 in comparasion to Brood War after he made that switch. It's probably a mental thing where it helps him stay motivated if he feels he is playing the best of games. In this case it might also serve to rationalize why he is not performing aswell as in the previous game. Translated MadFroG interview Cool that you are doing so well! But why!? Why did you change so drastically to WC3 from Starcraft/Brood War? What tempted you to play War3? Haha, I was probably the last team-q member to change. I wasn't even playing the War3 beta. But what was fun with BW was going to events and so on, and I knew that there wouldn't be much of that considering all the talk about WC3. In the start after changing, I liked BW much better, but now I have to say that I think WC3 is the better game. | ||

I don't believe Frog is better than TLO at this current stage, but don't act like he's just some kid who walked in off the street with a copy of SC2. He's a pro, he's proven it so many times in the past and he's only going to get better. Hell just being (re)picked up by SK already says a lot. One difference choice in game 3 as to where to put his expo and it could easily have been 2-1 Frog. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + The hidden expos is what cost MadFrog the first and third game. The hidden expo in the third game was really bad because he put it so close to the terran, a better spot would have been one in the east side so that at least he'd have a chance to defend it. As soon as TLO spotted the expo that game was over and MadFrog knew it but he played on to try to give the crowd a show. That second game was great and it showed MadFrog's legendary harassing skills. For the second series tomorrow I think MadFrog should pick Kulas Ravine and Metalopolis. I believe he can win tomorrow's series 3-2 if he picks the right maps. | ||

They don't pick maps by the way but veto until 3/5 maps are left. | ||

And btw, Madfrog has been at top ladder player since phase 2, and played even matches against top players like Whitera. While TLO definately was the favourite before this one, one should def. still expect close matches. | ||
