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 his mechanics are actually quiet terrible, and always were compared to others : /
Don't flamebait, keep your hate to your anti-Grubby shrine.
As for Grubby not kicking ass immediately, that shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. No-one picks up a game and competes at the highest level after a hundred games, even if you're a gifted RTS player. I don't expect Grubby to compete with he big boysuntil at least 2 months from now, probably longer. I just hope he sticks with playing SC2.

he never will. He will be able to go pretty high off his natural rts ability alone, but he was never half as good as the other progamers in wc3. Not to mention he joined a team with infi and th00? for cepl which is a 6month league where you MUST life in china and he will be focusing on wc3 there i assume.

Firstly, what in the world makes you think he wasn't half as good as other progamers in WC3? Completely dumbfounded claim considering he is among some of the most consistent and accomplished pro-gamers of all time, let alone WC3 players. He was dominating up until the downfall of WC3 in countries other than China, we haven't seen much from him in either game lately, which leads me to believe he's trying to decide how he's going to pursue his gaming career.
Also, he didn't join a team with INfi and th00 (you're referring to tyloo), those claims were found untrue by a post from Cassandra who said that they were making shit up.

Well sorry, that is why i put the question marks. He was dominating due to one thing, orc. I've personally played him 30-50 times and i can tell you he is just an average top level player. He knows how to abuse his race very well, but his actual skill just is nowhere near the other players i've played. Think terran vs zerg on jungle basin and multiply that by 3 or 4 and thats what grubbys games have been like.

I'm pretty sure none of those people you're talking about are actually Grubby. He's most likely laddering on a smurf account and he definitely didn't compete in the TL Open.

i can tell you guys that grubby was around 2500 before the reset. like 800 ladder games played and his name on the ladder before the "masters league" was grubby.

no you're completely wrong. grubby has dominated for a lonnnng time in war3 through ALL periods of balance changes, how about 2004-5 when Grubby was owning with Orc when Night Elf was considered broken?

an american who've met grubby between 30 - 50 times, I lol`d. Especially seeing as ur calling him an "average top level player". Might I ask what level players such as Kiwikaki (i know hes canadian) and so on is at ?
And I even highly doubt any person have played that grubby that many times outside of europe / korea. And if they have, they would certainly not call the guy average top player. Rofl.
And out of interest, who are u ?~~
PS , No american nor Canadian for that matter even came close to Grubbys skill level in wc3.

yeah he was the only dude playing orc so that explains everything hehehehe
and when he started dominating orc was considered pretty weak, so I can safely say that, you sir, are an idiot.

Nvm looking at who he teams with it does look like its grubby.
It's Grubby. I actually played him. I was really amazed when I met someone called Grubby on the ladder. As he was Dutch (like me) I was fairly confident I got the real one.

No way to tell, the link for Grubby doesn't link to his Bnet account whatsoever.

Edit: sorry for double post, i just noticed it.

Yeah I think thats him, since his match history says that he beat nukestrike as do the brackets.
