I don't think he'd lie to someone straight-faced like that. Where did this come from? Not saying it isn't true but if it was just some comment in chat, I'd be hesitant to trust that.. | ||

Is there a misunderstanding here because I don't understand Bronze League? do you listen to yourself talk?? is there a misunderstanding here? i dont understand bronze league because MVP has proven himself to, but apparently mvp only has a better chance to win mlg over nestea because he plays Terran and terran is the op race and it has nothing to do with mvps skill. | ||

I don't know why it's such a surprise that he could be GM with all three races, esp. on the NA ladder. He was a former BW pro, so it's completely plausible. | ||

It wouldn't be surprising. It would definitely be time consuming though, like Artosis pointed out. Still, I'm curious where that is coming from. | ||

They don't need to do that, you need to pm jp to unban you. | ||

With 3 races? While casting? It would actually be a very impressive feat. There's only a handful of guys who can make it to GM as random, and AFAIK David Kim is the only one who isn't a known cheeser. Playing 3 races is even harder, you don't get the benefit of randomness in the early game. I for one will only believe it when I see it. I don't mean that he's bad, just that people underrate how hard it is to play 3 races at such a high level (And yes, top 200 is very high level, even on NA). | ||

Relative to their BW accomplishments, it's actually not very high at all. I'm pretty sure any of these progamers can make GM with random. | ||
