Doesn't matter when 300 APM rolls over 50 APM Bronze league players anyway. Knowledge =/= Skill

Wow, that was really stupid post from you.


Says the guy who thinks you can't be a gold level player without knowing about baneling speed.

If you read my posts carefully, you may find out that i actually never said anything like that.


I'm sorry?

You say he is truly a Bronze player, then counter someone saying the stomping wasn't at the level of Grandmaster vs Bronze by saying he didn't know about Baneling speed, which the average Gold level player knows about?

Right. Go learn how to argue.

Average gold player plays simply better, yellow is more like average bronze. I know he was gold at the time of showmatch so did not say he was actually in bronze.


Excuse me? Average gold player would play better than Yellow?
Even if we take Yellow @ the time when he played boxer in the show match, his decision making skill & overall understanding of the game was much better than most NA Master players.

Most gold players (at least in NA) only know how to execute the builds they are familiar with, and once the other player does anything to disrupt their build (early harassment) they get lost and don't know what to do for the rest of the game.

Yes he may not have known about Baneling speed. But his game sense & understanding of starcraft game mechanics would have him beat any gold player, any time.
(I'll bet you Yellow can beat most golds w/o having use of queen's larva ability)

I guess you have big yellow fanboy glasses which is reason you cannot think this thing objectively. Pro tip: yellow is below average gold level in skill wise.

Im sorry if you dont get this, I can see that if after this post you still are arguing you will not get it. It is not worth it to try to explain in words of one syllable.

Oh, and btw knowing how to perfectly micro brood war units does not automatically transfer to knowing how to micro different units in different game. Give me a break guys, really.


you dont deserve a break because of how stubborn and rude youre being, not to mention wrong. i played broodwar for about 8 years and i picked up sc2 so much quicker than my friends who did not play broodwar at all. you know why? no, you wouldnt understand. i hope for team liquids sake all your posts arent this bad. give US a break and stop posting


I have to agree with Disposition.

Even if what your saying might make sense to you it's really just you talking out of your ass xd.

Damn that shit about the bling speed and reaper was so stupid xD

The fact that banelings have a speed upgrade and reapers can't shoot air is something he will have known since day 1 of playing lol.

1: He is a brilliant RTS player and one of the great SC players. That takes BRAINS and PREPARATION and COMMON SENSE. And a hell lot of other things.

I'm quiet sure he updated himself on all the new units and their abilities etc. . Man i did that and i'm just a casual noob.

2: He is not a idiot

Need i say more lol?!

yet he totally acted like whole upgrade never existed in showmatches against boxer which pretty well projects his overall skill currently, let alone whole

And i never said that he would not get better fast, just saying that currently he is very bad in sc2 and bw history helps him little because there is so much things to learn first before he can truly utilize his general rts sense and mechanics. It helps him getting better faster though but currently his understanding of the game is probably so low that BW background does not make him superior.

you agree with disposition? he just flamed someone for claiming that yellow will pick up SC2 faster than the average player... even though he is of the same opinion. weird.



also lordwar was absolutely right.. his BW skills didn't help him a lot in those first ~50games*... dude, GOLD LEAGUE!




*he played 30games during project a and has probably played a few before the show.. so im estimating 50

honestly everyone has a different opinion. How come failed BW pro's dominate SC2? Boxer was essentially a failing legend, when he switched. I personally know nothing of yellow.

Honestly they need to put Yellow with NesTea and Losira for a month after this project deal is over and he'll be insane. So far all the footage we've seen was pre showmatch. So its very possible he just isn't getting it, isn't doing the work and isn't learning fast enough.


Boxer was a 'failing legend' in sense that the new players such as Flash and Bisu were just that talented and were putting in efforts that he couldn't follow.

He was still a talented and competent player. He would've beat any and all foreign players at that time. (sorry for this cheap shot, but I am quite offended by that statement and this is an easy analogy for the westerns to understand)

That shows the level of talent & the level of dedication Boxer and other BW pros can put into SC2.


Countless pro gamers were better than boxer, he wasn't what he use to be. 99% of Korean Pro gamers would be foreign pro gamers... whats your point? I never said he wasn't working and as dedicated as other pro gamers, I'm just telling you the results. The results don't lie. I like boxer, I follow him in SC2.

There is nothing wrong with peoples time coming and going and being passed by. It it offends you to admit that a legendary player was on the decline and not performing at the highest level as other pro gamers, then be offended. Its the truth. It doesn't make boxer anything lessor.

It was confimred ages ago since there was a fake Slayers_Yellow in master. But this is a different and legit one.

This is probably not legit Yellow, and you dont have any real evidence about this thing anyway. Why do you claim things without evidence? Get real

hahaha funny thing is, yellow actually said in the latest project A video that he "has a masters account" i think we all thought he was joking but it actually might be true :D


NO. This was before his showmatch. In his showmatch he looked gold/low-plat. His mutas were of course better than gold, but his macro, droning, decision making, scouting, everything else was really shocking.

he was worse than average gold, believe me. He was truly a bronze


I can't believe there is even an argument about whether he is gold level or whatever.

To put it in perspective, gositerran or sixjaxmajor now played the game in 3 weeks (I think) and made it to the top of the ladder in NA.

I seriously can't believe you are arguing that one of the most successful progamers in BW is a gold leaguer. I really can not fathom how ignorant a statement that is. Oh my god..
