Yeah he 3-0ed JD in a Starleague, but seriously, that final did probably go down in history as the final with the most imbalanced maps ever: Colloseum 60% TvZ, Othello 68% and Tiamat with a friggin 100% TvZ. Lol. But hey, if Zergbong can become a leading figure in SC2, ForGG certainly can do so as well. | ||

In the same tournament he beat Flash in TvT and Kal in TvP though... that's like one of the very strongest MSL runs, please don't downplay it | ||

Beating Flash back then was certainly impressive - altough I think I remember that Flash did at least one 14 CC fail (ah, the good old Flash 14 CC times =) ) and knowing ForGG, I'm sure he cheesed the hell out of him in at least one of those games - well I may go and rewatch them later^. If you just look at the names it looks like a most impressive MSL run, but If you go into detail, it doesn't look that scary anymore. | ||

I dont know if maybe Kal was a lot weaker at the time but in Flash's super dominance of 2010, I found Kal to be one of the protosses who were most capable of giving Flash a good game. Sure he lost most (if not all T_T) of their games, but he looked less pathetic than most people did. His Pvt is certainly far from bad. | ||

Kal has played a few really good games with Flash in this time period, long excruciating games in which his recalls couldnt quite break flash. | ||

Nope, Kal looked that good 2010 because every Dragon basically sucked hard in 2010 compared to what they are capable of. Of course Kal played amazing Starcraft in 2010, there's no denying it. | ||

According to Thorzain, ForGG has been in the top 10 of the korean Grandmaster league multiple times and has played over a thousand ladder games. That alone is enough to hype him as being a competitive GSL player. Maybe not a god that will crush everyone, but still. | ||

That's like being 10-0 against nestea, you have to understand the skill difference between BW and SC2 How about 8-1 like MVP?  Excited to see how he does, i'd be lying if I said I followed the broodwar scene very closely (or for very long), but even I've heard of forGG | ||
