However, I wonder what will happend when he meets MVP that doesn't let you go deathball with no rush 20 minutes? | ||

It's just one man's opinion though, it certainly doesn't reflect the attitude of the entire BW community. | ||

However if you look at all the hype they have got going up to this, people should have just taken it with a pinch of salt and not made claims like "OMG BW PR0s GONNA OWWWWN" Since it is a new game, and it is NOT as easy as people claim | ||

I would, in fact rather watch the first season of GSL than this, atleast that was vaugley entertaining, this is just like watching to very mediocer players battle it out. Not intresting in the slightest. But this is just my opinion lol.. Such a biased opinion. The level of play here is much higher than early seasons of GSL, that's not even subjective. Remember San blocking his own expo with a pylon? Remember TheBestFou banshees? Just last night we saw Squirtle rally his first immortal into MVP's base. I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but these games are an indication that once these guys fully devote their attention to SC2, we are going to see some extraordinary play. | ||

In my limited SC2 experience it almost feels like the matchup flows in the opposite direction of how it does in BW. Terran feels like they need to take the role of the Protoss from the BW matchup in terms of how and when to engage, and how to fight around armies, etc. and Protoss takes the more defensive style of the Terran in the BW TvP matchup | ||

Effort was okay. I don't agree that he was amazing as everyone said, he was just really greedy and Flash didn't do anything to stop him, so he eventually just ran over him. The ace match with Effort in wasn't great (he lost) but I think that's just inexperience about brood lord/infestor timings. | ||

In fact, some of these games now are already better than most of the games that were seen back when the article was written. I don't know why people love quoting that article as if SC2 has not developed for the entire time since. | ||
