ForGG faces a zerg who very recently was considered the #1 player in the world and was said to have the best TvZ.
Then he faces a two times GSL winner in a matchup that is incredibly unstable/unbalanced and loses the coin flip.

He held his own against both players and played better than most terrans I've watched in the GSL so I think the hype-train is still going, albeit not full-force but I'd rather watch ForGG lose to leenock/MC over ganzi or supernova play anyday.

It's funny how I like cheese if my favourite does it. but when another player does it (preferably any terran) I start to rage about it *insert-troll-face-here*

not really


lol exactly. How on earth is this ironic?

I guess that since ForGG is known as the timing attack master that somehow makes him the "cheese master" also and then it is ironic that the "cheese master" got bested by cheese.

So for all the silly elephanters and elephantees:

- ForGG was not a current performing BW pro, elephant still alive.
- ForGG got overhyped, but is still very good. I can't name any player in the GSL that couldn't have gone #4 in this group. Still, he was never going to royal road. Still potential to win future GSL's.
- Leenock is indeed a counter to the elephant argument since the article is dismissive of all talent discovered in SC2.
- But a better counter would be someone average in BW doing fantastic in SC2, unfortunately cannot be proven until the higher level BW pros said 'better counter' lost against appear and do sc2 seriously. For the record, MC is a potential of this.

And that's my read on it. I hate the elephant article mainly for my third point. Far too dismissive of any good players being non BW pros. Ignores other e-sports, rising / young talent and only gives a negative shake of the head for players actually *gasp* getting better.


perfectly said

This... is excellent. It's beautiful. I agree with all of it.

Yes and pretty disrespectful to the first generation of sc2 players that are paving the way for the future.

TheStC aka the Code S caliber player that can't get into Code S because he has the worst luck in the world.

ogsfin still showed great potential to me. next time we see him he will probably play alot less risky style

I was thinking exactly the same on both the oGsFin thing and the tvp.
