Guys it´s BoxeR, even humanrights go out of the window when it´s BoxeR.
He is a Manofoneway... his way.
You are lucky to just get a peek every now and then.

K, i don't get why there's so much whining out there about boxer's play but Boxer as ManofOneway is last time i checked is 57th on the korean 1v1 rankings just below HopeTorture who was a finalist for GSL. he also ranked above such names as oGsEnsnare, HongunPrime,NEX Genius, LiveForever and even Tester (oGssSKS) who are just among dozens of Primes, WERRA's and oGs players.
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...

On top of this Idra gave Artosis the rep; Idra wouldn't give one of himself losing.

Also, Boxer has played how many games compared to IdrA? It is like saying IdrA is better than Upmagic because Upmagic lost a couple games IdrA.

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.

The Boxer bashing is ridiculous. 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?

He could with his micro stay alive even when having 50 less supply than IdrA. Imagine BoxeR with a 200/200-army now. Yeah, that is why we are so excited about this game.

There are so many things wrong in this thread i want to puke.

99% of you should not be trying to critique anyone's gameplay, nevermind the play of Boxer and Idra.

This game is awesome because its the first game of arguably the greatest SC player playing against one of the best sc2 players in the world. 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.

idra/boxer made some mistakes. Too bad I can't say sh*t since I am not even close to them in SC2.

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.

wasnt really an epic game, boxer clearly hasnt been playing all that much SC2

artosis seems to think it was epic tho, getting pretty excited over such a lackluster performance by boxer - hopefully he starts playing SC2 full time so we can see some true boxer genius


So making IdrA work hard for a win is "lackluster performance"?



not saying it was a stomp but idra coulda ended that game several times, hes just a very safe player and held off until it was 100% in his mind



The way boxer clawed his way back into the game was amazing, I have no idea what you are talking about. 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.

unfair comparison, I don't need to be a profession movie critique to know that a movie sucks, or a food critique to know bad food tastes bad.

as far as viewership is concerned, chess is a lot less intuitive than starcraft.
