I've seen plenty good and even great SC1 players have terrible micro in SC2. Does that mean that all sc1 players suck at micro? The answer is obvious, so why draw such paralles for WC3 players?

The fact that the apm increases during battles, tells you how intense micro it requires.
I've seen Fly not losing a single unit in huge head on battles vs talons.

This one's awesome as well. And looks rather funny too.

^ you sure thats grubby? I was under the impression he was keeping his account secret for the time being.. making an account called "grubby" isnt exactly the most inconspicuous thing in the world.

Nvm looking at who he teams with it does look like its grubby.

Grubby lost round 1 today in TL Open to yoichibow. Not sure who that is.

I beat Grubby on ladder today, he went for a proxy gate build on steppes. Heres to hoping he won't follow certain other WC3 players down the cheesy route!

Pretty sure that's Grubby considering his teammate :'d and for the amount of games he played he isn't bad already in Master. Give him some time to adjust and I think we might see him going far.

That's probably his account, given his teammate for 2s is named cassandra. But with little over 100 1v1's played you can't expect him to be anything special. Can you post the replay?

Nice! i loved Grubby's play in WC3, and i am especially excited for him to come into the SC2 scene! I don't think it will be too much of an issue being a "hybrid" player. He is solid at WC3 and his mechanics are amazing and i think that with time he will be a great player

<3 Grubby, I will cheer for him everywhere :D
