Col.Cruncher is a garbage player. He only knows how to cheese and he's an arrogant piece of shit. Minigun is 1000x better, which is probably one of the reasons they included him.

But that totally sucks about Slush and Kiwikaki. With Kiwi easily posting the best results of anyone on ROOT and Slush being no pushover himself, I'm sure they will do a great job for whatever teams they join. Let's just hope they don't go the way of qxc and join a team only to disappear for a few months.

Congrats to the former ROOT members on getting a new team. Congrats to Complexity gaming on gaining some seriously talented players. I wish Kiwikaki and Slush the best in their future endeavors.

To the people that are claiming that Minigun isn't an ace level player, I urge you to watch his stream. I've watched his play get better and better and better over the past months. This isn't something that I'm just pulling out of thin air, it's something I've seen with my own eyes. You can't judge a player that hasn't been to many LAN events solely on his results. It just doesn't make sense to do it that way. So the only way to really know is to watch their play and judge for yourself. His game sense, crisis management, and knowledge of the match ups are amazing. Yes, his APM might not be the highest in NA, but he makes up for a lack thereof with the aforementioned abilities. Before some of you judge these players, you really should take the time to watch their streams and replays.




So now to judge a player we have to watch their stream for hours and hours? I've watched Minigun in online tournies, he's okay. Good, but certainly not amazing. I'd be hesistant to call him the new col ace.


I have to agree Eris. Playing well in the comfort of your room does not make you an "ace level player" or even a pro gamer for that matter. He has to perform and place well at LAN events to show that he can play at the highest stage. Being a professional at whatever sport is about playing well at the highest stage. Its just simply that.


I was pretty sure being a professorial at a sport meant you were being payed (or living) from the game. By your definition, minor league baseball players wouldn't be professionals. Minigun's obviously a progamer; I just hope he can get over whatever's keeping him from the lan scene just to calm his critics a little.

Meh sucks they coudlnt aquire slush and kiwi, drewbie and catz (minigun i guess as well but its hard to guage his skill i dont see to much of him) are the 2 notable players that switched over, and i wouldnt call them anything more than middle of the road players. Watching drewbie play against mana right now, nothing really that impressive mana handled him pretty damn well.

I'm really looking forward to see how all the ROOT guys fare in CoL. I think the growth of especially Destiny and Minigun will be extremely exciting to watch.

Grats to former Root and Complexity. It's a shame that Root's 2 best players (imo) didn't join though.

Dang so bad that theres so many pages talking about what top-tier team he'll go to and how he is/was the ace of root, man he so bad.

Your thread has hundreds of pages, can't wait to see what team you join, you are a legend after all.

this is nice, but sadly complexity and root are going to die down. They are going to lose all chances of picking up top prospects without kiwi or slush. Sadly they are going to diminish

WHAT?!? NOOO ROOT was awesome!! Wow, crazy... T-T.
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

Wherever they go, good luck to them. Hope they don't stack an already stacked team, and join those in need of help

I hope the ban he has was for it..seriously all the shittalking/looking down on progamers in this thread make TL look like battle.net forums. What happend to respect and manner towards other players/pro players? Is this Idras influence?
