(The answer is no) Anyways just give it time, if SC2 takes over China chances are tournaments for WC3 will die out and he'll dedicate his time fully to SC2. I swear, people on these forums act as if you ever do anything other than SC2 you will fail miserably and die in a fire or something. Why do you take his comment as an insult? He's just saying that Grubby might not be very good at the game right away. Which as you correctly pointed out, is true for everyone. No-one said he wouldn't be good because he plays WC3, chill. Please, don't turn this into a WC3 vs Starcraft thread. | ||

He was definitely practicing hard, and he's been playing the game off and on since beta. Most of those were as terran he had just recently switched to zerg and I shouldnt have to remind you how bad a few terrans looked switching to zerg in the last few months. You say a thousand games but thats a lot less games than other players of that level because he is still concentrating on WC3 or he was. I am hoping that next year he gets more time to put into it. That said I dont think it is a given that the best BW/WC3 players will be the best SC2 players, we have already seen that not to be the case so far. Though if anyone can then it would be Grubby or Moon. | ||

There will be big prize money WC3 tournaments next year its already been announced for 2011 if you take the court case into consideration WC3 actually looks more stable to me next year than BW. | ||

But none of the current best WC3 have switched full time either and some lesser WC3 players have done very well (Rain, Naama). I am not trying to start a WC3/SC argument just saying dont expect players to neatly fall in line of pecking order because they wont its a different game.Has the best BW players switched to SC2 yet? | ||

If you mention how some lesser WC3 players have done well then what about irOn, FD, ZergBong, IdrA? Or maybe I just didn't get what you were saying, | ||

Obviously, I was merely saying what he was saying. I think if you top of a game you must have talent and the mindset to be top of any game. Maybe not every top but still competitive. | ||
