Alright, I clearly have to be an idiot if I don't know the detailed history of a Broodwar progamer.

Maybe. Baby might be the streakiest player in KeSPA history. When he is on, he wins convincingly against anyone, but when he is off...it isn't pretty.

No. You just have to go right there in the menu, choose forum and read the topic about elefants.
Plain and simple.

Flash and Jaedong, when motivated, have a mindset and work ethic that is unmatched by any other RTS professional. Their ability to focus and practice is not just "way better" than what Mvp is capable of, but orders of magnitudes better. Think the difference between Kobe and "average starter" on an NBA team.

Maybe Leta or Sea or Best or Zero won't come into SC2 and be ultra-successful if they switch. But Jaedong and Flash? They are outliers. They do not conform to the normal rules, and everyone who has followed Brood War knows that if they switch, it's not a question of if they will dominate and win, but when.

The "different game" argument applies to 99.9% of progamers, but not for special players like Jaedong and Flash. The game doesn't matter. Whether it's BW or SC2 or checkers or minesweeper, certain players are so good they will always be at the top.

TeamLiquid should release an official statement saying

"THE ELEPHANT THEORY IS BULLSHIT AND WE ARE SORRY TO HAVE RELEASED IT.
To those of you who were offended: WE ARE SORRY WE WERE WRONG.
To those of you who still believe in this crap: QUIT BEING A RETARDED MONKEY AND GET OFF THE LR THREADS. WE ARE ASHAMED EVERY TIME THIS SHIT IS BROUGHT UP."

That piece of shit article have been the rallying point of every BW elitist ever, although it has been time and time again proved completely wrong. Not just partially wrong, completely and utterly wrong.

Lol. How offended can you get? Are you one of the eSF players who got put down? Need a beer? Or maybe better things to rage about than an article about a game. Come here and I'll give you a hug.

Anyway, am pleased with the results. Haven't been able to watch the games so much though.
