Marines in the hands of a capable player seems incredible - I would like to see Foxer vs a Protoss player and see what options they have.


I think I know his solution to templar storm already. Marines. I have no idea how he would pull it off but I'm sure it would work when he starts micro'ing.



Protoss would never make it to HT.

what's wrong with tier1 units if you have a lot of them and micro them like crazy? Nothing at all ^^


Um, that you are supposed to use different strategies for playing against different races, different opponents, different units, and different maps, and not just use the same unit to win in every situation?

You're supposed ?
You're supposed to win first of all.

At least, winning with a basic unit takes class. =D
For those who were lost.

It's sad how people don't understand starcraft...I'm sad for people who can't appreciate the games foxer gives to us



I do think people appreciate them, i know i do. But that doesnt mean that i wouldnt like to see something besides mass marine. A 45 min game with Foxer would be much better than a game that ends in 7mins with only marines.

Blame ITR for going for bad strats that died quick rather than Foxer's playstyle tbh. The series vs Kyrix showed that Foxer has pretty solid lategame play too.

It's always been like this. The same happened with Morrow in beta and after release. It didn't really matter if he played eco or not, just because he massed reapers he was apparently bad no matter what.


Very true indeed. People ignored how good Morrow's micro was, I especially liked the Xel'Naga Caverns game vs. IdrA i think, in the Zotac cup long time ago. I didn't care whether or not reapers were OP, I was just amazed how he got so much damage in, from a very fragile unit, and he pushed it into his favor.

Foxer is just one step ahead of the game. I always thought that SC2 would evolve into micro wars once players get good enough to perfect the far easier (compared to BW) macro mechanics. Foxer simplified macro even further by concentrating on mostly marines and spending probably ungodly hours in perfecting his usage of them. I'm not saying his macro is perfect, but it's near perfect enough into the early/mid game to support his strategy. DPS-wise, nothing is as cost effective. They're just really fragile. He solves this weakness with superior micro play.

Can't really blame foxer... his opponents are the ones to blame for not being able to stop him.

Hate to say it but both players made it into a boring, ugly series in my opinion. Im afraid i just really dont care if somebody can get a bunch of marines in a hurry. If Fake Boxer can show something other that his 1 trick then ill be impressed. Once his gimmick is figured out no one is going to fall for that anymore and hell be just another player. I hope for his sake he works some other elements into his style, because some of his decision making is dog shit. Once players have the time to take apart his gimmick all that hell have left is nothing. So hopefully he can improve further and expand his play and not be just some guy we barely remember in 5 years. He seems like a decent guy so i wish him luck.


Did you watched Nada vs Boxer?
Nada tried cutesy builds while Boxer did the EXACT same thing 4 times. Boxer won 3vs1.
I had a good night of sleep.

Congratz to Foxer, awesome games.


Wasn't really a fail. Artosis skipped a question cuz he felt it wasn't a good one. I just thought he read wrong ID.

Don't listen to him, ty very much for translating.

We love u!

The problem is really the size of the maps. It's like putting a T and a Z spawn 50yds from each other in BW and the zerg going 4pool every game.

there will always be people who trying to express their hate towards the "class-card" its pretty same as the racism card...

for first place, they playing for win the prizes and not to entertain you. if you enjoy the games be welcomed, otherwise gtfo. if they have a very fat chance to win by an abusive strategy really what they should do? might just toss up thousand of dollars in equity, to entertain that prick on the other side of the planet, and lose with dignity? get a brain pls

you did see things besides mass marines. you saw FE leading into raxes, leading into tanks and medis/vikings. there were even marauders and SCVs in the pushes. timing pushes! adjustments to builds based on scouting (i assume refineries came when he scouted starport on steppes)! and upgrades! and drops! and good economy! in the kyrix match on xel'naga, you saw a hero banshee, marauders and siege tanks involved in a macro game that lasted a good while.
