Here's the thing though -- it's going to be hard for him in the long run to become a super popular player if he uses more simplistic and unexciting tactics. For example, take TLO. In a span of months he went from a nobody in SC2 to the darling of the entire foreigner community. Why? He exhibited insane builds and creative play that really got people excited. If he played MMM every game do you really think he'd have anywhere near the amount of fans he does now? He's playing against toss. Mech is garbage against toss. His army is going to be MMM, just like toss army is going to be gateway units + colossi. Diversification comes later. Sure, he could throw in some ghosts but he would weaken his forces substantially by not getting medivacs first. You might notice terran doesn't have regenerating shields. | ||

I fail to see how me having a supposedly "Greater understanding" of the game would change my opinion of the games i saw, i think its an elitist argument on a base level and on a greater level its not really a counter at all to what im saying, its sitting in the camp of "well you just wouldnt understand, its a bit over your head". I have said again and again that just because i thought the game was boring doesnt mean intrinsically it was to anyone else, but im allowed to have my opinion regardless. I appreciate his micro and i think he deserved the victory, but so far as being a spectator is concerned if the whole tournament was like that then id be sorely dissapointed. | ||

Again you can have that opinion all you want, but if feels like you're trying to bash people over the head with it. You've had a ton of posts in the last few pages complaining about it. | ||
