Flash needs to play BW 100% to keep his 400k. He plays 10 hours a day, everyday and only doesn't think about BW when he is asleep. That's what it takes to be the best. That's why he has his insane starsense. He can't be a god at both. Even he isnt THAT good. "Perfect practice makes perfect". Flash has perfect practice. | ||

And you're wrong about no new BW players coming, too. If you were an up and comer and noticed there was no competition in BW because everyone was busy trying to take their chances in SC2, you would just play BW and end up getting free money. There ought to be some natural point of equilibrium that distributes talent between the two games simply because both player pools are competitive. | ||

Though you're right that he won't be playing 2 games at the same time, but that's pretty obvious. | ||

If too many good players switch to SC2, there won't be much money left in BW. The Major Tournaments aren't stupid, they will run tournaments for the Game who will get them the most money. | ||

Starcraft (BW and SC2) is a RTS, however there are a limited number of strategies, builds, so in my opinion its all about practice, with practice comes multi tasking, with multi tasking, comes scouting, macro and attacking at the same time, and the most important is being able to react fast. | ||

Yeah, but Huk (ex-TL) is like really good friends with Nada's and plays soccer with Jaedong. TL is no team to be looked down upon. They got some damned good connections. | ||

Yeah i know i was just asking if they were completely sure that the HerO account was HerO from BW not HerO from SC2. heh and any high APM masters in BW should switch to protoss. Protoss is the race that requires/can use the most APM in SC2. with sentries, warp in mid fights, deploying warp prisms, pheonix micro, blink micro, feedback ect. (unless they add back the no holding down keys, in which case zerg macro will require more APM than in BW, like it did on the PTR when they implemented that. oh god it was awful). for the BW players who don't know what i'm mentioning. in SC2 you can hold down Z to quickly turn all larva selected into Lings. instead of 1 push for 3 larva like in BW. however they removed this in a playtest region to test a patch, so that to create 3 zerglings one had to press hotkey for hatch(es) press s, press z for every pair of lings you wanted to make. with 5 hatches to produce 5 hatch hydra in BW you had to use 15 actions for a full cycle during that time for the same act in SC2 you had to use 18 actions or more with more larva because of queens. | ||
