I belive there was some interview were he said he would play P or Z. So most likely not T by Grubby.

Such good news if true. Grubby is my favorite and the pro who really got me interested in eSports. It's really sad that WC3 is coming to an end, but he had a glorious run and has held the spot as the top orc (and arguably, the top player) for many years now.

Go Grubby!

It's his wife now lol. I think it's great that Grubby is switching to SC2 soon. He may be winning a good amount of WC3 tournaments, but I think it's best to switch ASAP. He is a talented player, but I dunno how good he was in SC1, or how well he played in the SC2 beta. From what I make it out, if he sticks with WC3 until tournaments are vanishing one by one, it may be late for him to compete at a top level in SC2. I know that SC2 is still young and there isn't a lot of big tournaments yet, but if you plan to play at a high level, I think it's best to start soon.

It's not too late in the least. Are you crazy? You think the pros we have now are it?

SC2 is going to have at least a 10 year run, likely longer than that considering the expansion spacings and general promotion of eSports. What the scene looks like now is nothing like what it will be even a year from now.

he's been a "progamer" for quite some time, so he is used to training and knows how to improve and train.

i guess he would do pretty well in SC2

Tha game came out a month ago... There's plenty of time. Some people would actually prefer to wait until the game is more developed so they can just follow builds instead of making their own.
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

Also, I'd just like to say as another "confirmation" that he's moving on... his wife, Cassandra, just recently posted a large blog about Grubby's history in WC3 and made many mentions to SC2 and how it was a great game.
I think he's finally accepted that WC3 is coming to an end, and if he wants to continue his very successful eSports career (got him a beautiful wife and a nice house already!) he'll need to start training for SC2.

Hope he switches and when he does it will no doubt be successfully. Grubby has all the basics, good macro/micro, he just needs to learn the game, which a run through single player can handle

Another Protoss then..... ^^'

I really liked Grubby in WC3, but to start playing professionally a year into SC2 as a WC3-Player (cuz I think by then thePro-BW-Players from Korea will have started playing) will be quite hard to do IMHO.

But if one WC3-Player besides Moon can do it, he can. Especially cuz his playstyle requires quite a lot of Multitasking, for WC3 at least.

should mention moon isn't planning to switch until next year as well

so it looks like they will allow the game to go on for another year before letting it die.

Grubby is still under contract (ie: Being paid to play Wc3), and still going to be playing at Blizzcon. The money will eventually dry out as major sponsors are already switching to SC2. Will be awesome to watch him play SC2.
Too tired to come up with something witty.

Grubby could probably play WC3 for a few more years since it's still big in China and so is he. But that's about it, he would be more of a performer or entertainer than a competitive gamer and I don't think that's what Grubby wants. I'm sure he realizes aswell that the future and the big buck lies in SC2.

Anyhow, it will be totally awesome when he officially makes the switch. The competition in SC2 is so much fiercer than in WC3 though so expecting him to be the same beast in SC2 is not realistic, but he will for SURE be a force to be reckon with.
