Stop. Seriously, this shits needs to stop. For fuck's sake, PLEASE STOP DOING THAT. Enough of "PLS PLS BW PRO SWITCH AND DOMINATE". Stop it.
Makes me sick.


Man I hope bw pros switch over soon. I wonder if they'll be as good as mvp and nestea.

Maybe they just got tired of their old computers, being slow or what have you?

Nah, they are ATLEAST 1500$ rigs.

And you most certainty don't need a GTX 560 for BW anyways.

Really interested in seeing the really good BW players transfer over to see this proposed skill difference between the current SC2 players and BW players. It is probably going to happen soon if they got a tech upgrade.

omg yay SC2!

But really this can only mean one thing. They consider buying better computers for any size of consideration of playing a future game. Which would be SC2. AKA they are considering or are already preparing for SC2. Actually, if they're considering it you could count that as preparing too eh? xD

Also aren't those keyboards a bit bad with all that extra space at the front (the space closest to the camera, below the space bar) ? Keyboards should be placed at the edge of the table or close to it, where your wrists can touch the table without getting carpel tunnel syndrome.

Teams need to start setting up for proleague including SC2 now. It's pretty logical.

Didn't we already know that korean teams were going to upgrade their computers in order to play SC2?
Not saying they're switching, just getting ready.

-.- Well it really wouldnt be so horrible to see some of the better B-Teamers start to make inroads into SC2... For instance Puma who switched over isn't the best, but he managed to make far more money than he would have B-Teaming... There's nothing that says that BW/SC2 succeeds at the expense of the other...

its probably so they can begin testing sc2 i highly doubt we'll see a mass overhaul into sc2 yet but im assuming this way they can familiarize themselves with the game when they have free time

It is dominating already----> MMA.
The easier spell and macro mechanics will enable them to multitask like mofos just like mma does.
That's the future imho.

I think they are changing computers because the ones they play on in proleague will be upgraded for sc2 so the BW pros need to be used to playing on the newer computers. The hardware is definitely overkill thou for BW and SC2
Jaedong gives me a deep resonance.

There's already many players with that high APM. 350 (old) ingame APM ~= 500 APM and I've seen enough players with that high APM or even higher.

Dafuq dude, just because they get new hardware it means SC2?

in their case, yes

bw is low resolution game, crt monitors are FAR superior to lcd in this conditions (120-140 refresh rate on 17inch afair) 0 latency, better colors.

Why would they change? Also bw doesnt need gfx560 -_-

Maybe they want to simply get away from their older computers, since they have the money and sponsors necessary to do so?

I just ordered an almost identical(judging by the limited info) rig but with GTX 560ti and an SSD disc for somewhere around 1300$, so to get to 1500$ you'd have to include include pretty much everything mouse+mouse pad, head-set, speakers and god-knows-what included. But yeah, it's more than 600-700$.

They'll probably switch over one of their so-so A-team Terrans, if they're smart. A well-trained A-teamer could demolish a huge portion of the SC2 community. Probably take over a few B teamers as well, to be used as practice partners.

If they want to just be mean, they bring over Flash.

A thread made with the purpose of playing with the idea and possibility of KT switching to/picking up SC2 would be frowned upon in the BW section. That they're getting new hardware is irrelevant to most of us, what's interesting is what that hardware could be used for.
