Why do people think Tyler is top tier sc2?


People like to think BW success translate into SC2 Success, but it's just not the case.


No, its because Tyler proved he's immensely talented and has the capacity to be a top tier player in Brood War. He just hasn't been as active or practiced as much as a pro needs to, which kinda sucks. I'll never doubt his ability to succeed as a pro, but you're right his level of play right now is very dissapointing.

He's talented at BW though. It doesn't transfer directly. Plenty of correlation of course, but it's not perfect.

I don't know if the practice explanation makes sense. Look at a guy like Nada. He doesn't practice much, and it shows. He does stuff like get supply blocked almost every game. But the decisions are sound, the quality is clearly still there. Tyler OTOH seems to be fine mechanically, he just does dumb stuff.

Which according to Catz is not part of North America....


Can I have the story behind that?

He raged after losing to stalife saying that people like him shouldn't be allowed in the NASL because it's for North Americans. This was referencing Stalife's Asian heritage, but Stalife is from Canada.

hes not talented, no one is. they got good by practicing and working hard, which tyler doesn't want to do anymore


I disagree on the "no one is talented" part...

But yeah, practice is essential.

Good post. When someone like NADA has holes in his play, you know you can't rely on "talent".

I dont see how anyone can compare NaDa and Tyler, in sc2 or bw, the gap is just to big.

No, he's pretty damn talented lol. Also don't forget all of these guys work incredibly hard, and there are people who work incredibly hard but haven't made it. You do need to be talented, to an extent, to make it as a pro. It's just talent will only get you so far and at this level its kind of plateaued and everything comes down to dedication and practice time.
