We know, TL just calls people by the names they're better known as. :p The game in the vod is by Manofoneway, which is (afaik) BoxeR's account. | ||

The real BoxeR is Manofoneway, who is number 9 on the b.net charts. Which I think is fun little fact ^_^ BoxeR number 9, fake BoxeR number 1 haha. | ||

Maybe this is why this is "Manofoneway" playing VS IdrA an not "BoxeR"? >_> http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=157713 | ||

I am still curious as to whether Manofoneway will participate in GSL2 - the only evidence so far I believe is the email thing. At this point it seems more likely that only the fake BoxeR will participate. | ||

He had just killed idra's last mining base, reducing him to long-distance. If he could squeeze out two banshees and take out the queens and any tech structure that threatens air, if idra happened to be out of money then he could kill EVERYTHING while his buildings floated away. 1/100 chance, but that is how Boxer plays. Some of his pimpest plays were him trying to come back from an impossibly lost game. Remember the game where his opponent tech switched to carriers, and brought 16 carriers and *8* observers. Boxer lost everything on the map but 1 barracks, a CC and starport he flew to a ledge and an academy he built somewhere hidden, proceeded to build several wraiths and medics. He then swept and cast Blind on every single observer in exactly 0.96 seconds. He then mopped up half the carriers with the wraiths before they managed to retreat to the SOLE cannon he had on the map. | ||

So even if he lost one ladder game against IdrA he still might be THE progamer in sc2 also. Oh well, only time will show. | ||
