To be honest, I can't wait for the Brood War players to come over and show the current players how things are done. I can't believe how crappy TaeJa's micro was considering he's top elo of the Korean SC2.



Now that's not quite fair. Taeja has very good gameplay, including micro, and you can't just take his micro from one game that he lost and compare it to one of the best showcases of micro from BW. That's cherrypicking comparisons.


lol I am not cherry picking my son. If you are top elo and considered one of the best players of a game, your micro should be prime regardless of whether you have stim or not. It's so easy to micro if you have stim but a true showcase of micro comes from when you don't have stim. Stutter stepping is so easy with stim, try it without it.

Then stop watching SC2 perhaps??? You don't have to if you don't like it.


...what if he wants to make it better -_-

I made the comparision because Brood War is the much harder game with far better players. MVP, Hyun, and ForGG are all lonewolfs on SC2 with crappy practice partners (if you compare them to their teammates on bw). MVP practices with Nestea lol. Flash will be practicing with Bisu, Fantasy, Jaedong, and the rest of the other pros while at the same time they will have their original coaches, strategists and analysts that have been in the pro scene for years backing them.


Still doesn't mean that they will be the next top dogs when they transfer. Some of the better players of the game right now are former WC3 players that outstrip people with BW experience, it's the game itself that matters. It might be harder to play BW, but doesn't mean being amazing at BW = being amazing at SC2.

Well, Flash did get into masters without knowing what most of the terran units/mechanics did during his rehab so...

lol i really don't want to turn this into a BW vs SCII discussion, but you do know that most top-tier pros played BW before SC2 right? Just saying.


I do, but lets look at Stephano, no BW experience, mostly casual WC3. And we can look at NaDa, ForGG, etc. And they've not been rolling in MLGs and GSLs. Some of the best players were mediocre in BW before transitioning and beating people that were arguably better in BW.

IdrA was a top foreigner in BW, and right now he struggles to win against people without BW experience. Doesn't directly translate to the same level of skill between the two games.

I'm surprised because I thought the managers told him to GG in official games.

Maybe that only applies to LAN tournaments.

I'd be surprised if he didn't :p

But our expectations for Flash are not Code S, no, we expect him to win Code S at least 4 times a year.

he is used to it, he just misjudged the situation. you could see that he didnt produced roaches after the warren finished. if his scouting would have been better he could have insantly started producing roaches after warren finished. this would have raped the zealots

After his minor aggression I think he was dead. Though I think he went for that attack because of the damage sustained on the first attack on his third.

God dammit the BW/SC2 "debate" has infested yet another innocent thread. Maybe there could be a designated thread to try and contain it, like the "designated balance discussion" thread.
