I understand he was a Pro back in 2000 and all...

But really, if the game is super easy like he says, why he is not high in the ladder, and hasn't won any tournies =s?

He prefers to play a style of Terran that SC2 doesn't accommodate. That's part of why he's frustrated and part of the flaw he finds with the game.

"good player" is quite an euphemism though. The guy was like top-3 non korean at the time and there were quite a lot of reps oh him beating actual pros. He might have been famous for his behavior first but he was insanely talented.

Along with Morrow this is now the 2nd top ex-good-BW player expressing these kinds of thoughts for SC2 (or at least SC2 Terran), so I believe the OP raises a decent question.

Sorry, but Netherlands aren't Scandanavia. It's Europian! Scandanavia = Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark :3.

Well let's progamers talk! I personally haven't here anything about NTT in any tournament so far, so it's hard to say. He is ragequitting pretty bad.. Hope that Blizzard will listen Progamers in Foregeirs (like MorroW, IdrA, TLO etc.) and Korean pros (NaDa, BoxeR, July, Cool etc.)


Whoops, my bad. I didn't know he was dutch! I always grouped him in with the northerners like Slayer ><

Fair enough, but he was a good player at a pretty disorganized time. While he was talented, once things got sorted out you didn't really hear from him much.

He was a dick. Look at his posts.

I'm pretty sure the community is glad to be rid of him. I sure as hell am.

Some very old-school BW players like NTT made a lot of fans-for-life with unusual playstyles. He will most likely always be welcome in the Starcraft community. He'd certainly have to burn his bridges a lot more aggressively than this.

I don't understand people rage quitting saying the game is too easy but not actually accomplishing anything.
I remember NTT from bw days and I was even excited that he was playing SC2. That said I can't remember him doing anything worth mentioning in SC2, but I could be wrong.

Is the game easier than bw? Well hell yes, but not easy enough that just anyone could go to a tournament and win it.

Honestly i understand his frustration even if his posts are ridiculous. Sc2 isn't a bad game per se but there are some majors flaws. Shitty map pool, units clumping or ridiculous hard counters for example.

And yea macro is a complete joke in this game. It is only semi relevant if you play zerg.
fuck all those elitists brb watching streams of elite players.

I have full faith in blizzard that by the end of the 2nd expansion most of these problems will be addressed in some form. However not everyone will be pleased lol.
I asked my friend how the ratio at a party was, he replied. "Let's just say for every guy there was two dudes."
