He is obviously good and good enough to compete in the GSL.... whether this game was his best or not we can't know right now because it's literally the only game we've seen of is. and whether boxer wins or not he's always fun to watch. peopl need to cut the complaining Boxer is a legend and that is undeniable and he is ranked above most of the players that competed in the GSL on the korean ladder. If he chooses too he definately has the potential to qualify and go very far in the GSL. also forgot to mention MoneofOneway's win rate is 62.19%....THATS HUGE! only 7 top diamond korean players have higher win rate percentages... | ||

Even Flash loses games, and Boxer is still exploring SC2 I am sure. Nada ez-moded TLO in some of his first games ever, despite losing one, Boxer probably would do the same to most SC2 "pros." Doesn't mean they aren't leagues better than their opponents, just that they are humans. Whoops. | ||

Also, his dropship play was quite impressive - much more so than what most 1a Terrans do. | ||

Of course he made mistakes, but if you go ahead and watch one of your own reps and check how "perfect" you do in each situation, you'll see that you will likely mess up a whole lot more. Also, his dropship play was quite impressive - much more so than what most 1a Terrans do. He's one of the top players in korea, according to ladder statistics. Considering he only played the game for such a short period of time I think any whiner should shut up and think twice. He could go far in the next GSL and this was just a ladder game. Who of you retards can safely say that all your ladder games are your a-game performance? | ||

Im pretty sure artosis did not decide to put this video on youtube to demonstrate matchup mechanics. The majority of you need to stop writing stupid shit and just appreciate the fact that this game occurred in the first place. exactly. every single time i see a discussion of a pro level game, i hear about 40 noob critiques saying this or that is horrible, or this player is awful and 95% of the those noobs have never gotten any where near the top 200 You don't need to be a top player to be a critique. What kind of twisted logic is that. Are you going to critique a chess grandmaster when you have only played 50 games of chess? If you do, your are a stupid asshole. How is the comparison even similar? How do you think professional critiques and commentators make a living? What does Day9 do in each of his dailys? How does not being a top player prevent you from pointing at obvious flaws in someone's play? Day9 isn't a 50 game, plat league noob. Just listen to Artosis's up most respect for Boxer's play, if anyone has any credentials to critique Boxer's play it'll be Artosis, but all had was respect and admiration. Implying Day9 didn't make an announcement a couple daily's ago that he finally got into diamond (IE: He was in platinum) I find that hard to believe considering how good he was at Broodwar. Also he said multiple times that he ladders on a secret account. | ||

Too bad I can't say sh*t since I am not even close to them in SC2. this. The fact is though, that you CAN say sh*t about them because we all know that they have experience and that they should play good otherwise this thread wouldn't be here. I've already posted in this thread, but I'm going to say it again, IdrA played really solid, and boxer was nothing spectacular. EDIT: after reading it through, it feels like sarcasm? too bad my internetsarcasmdetector isn't working today. | ||

Idra didn't end it so boxer took advantage and did a lot of damage even while behind 50 food. If you didn't enjoy that game I don't know what you will enjoy, once the fighting started it didn't stop. Boxer didn't claw his way back. It was pretty obvious that idra wasn't trying after minute 5 when he had the game won with creep everywhere. It was 2 base to 4+ base for a long time. Idra was just trying to have fun with it. Certainly not a serious battle as you have described. a little biased are we? No I don't even like idra. I don't care how good you are, BMing is immature. If you watched the video critically, it was obviously not a serious game after idra had 4 base to 2 base with creep everywhere. | ||
