Does Fantasy have good mechanics? I thought he was best at timing attacks, not so much at decision making, but I'm not super familiar with his play.

His claim to fame was executing weird builds with inconsistent success and amazing vulture micro. Something that doesn't exist in SC2. That said, he's one of the best BW terrans of the last few years. He beat Jaedong in the ProLeague Finals final set in an epic game to win the title for SKT.

What? Proleague finals? No SKT didnt win >: O!
The Final Boss beat BeSt in the ace match 4-3

You mean the STX masters Cup :\, one which KT didnt even participate in -.-


2009 proleague...

My mistake somehow I read that he was referring to the last Proleague finals that happened and I was like "WHAT"

I hope they will bring new strats into SC2 because of their strong mechanical play.

I feel that the release of HotS is really gonna propel the rise of these BW giants. The game becomes more like BW with this expansion and obviously there are untested builds and strat that these players can innovate

Super super exciting. There is too much immature speculation in this thread though but I guess it can't be helped.

Its really not that immature. It could be great for both the SC2 and the BW scene. More money circulating means growth, both BW and Sc2

Immature speculation and you have been a large part of it, considering your lack of reading comprehension.

That's what i meant. The speculation isn't that immature at all. U don't have to attack me personally. I'm sorry if it seemed taht I understood immature to describe the ppl not the speculation.

fantasy's mechanics isn't his strong suit. he is inconsistent/volatile. he is liable to macro slipups and he is not that good at bio in t v z. bio control really shows mechanics well. still, he is on par with mvp at least in that area, with better multitask

now, light is someone known for having immaculate mechanics

Yes. But in comparison to the current SC2 players, I think his mechanics will do fine.

Really? Its the complete opposite from my POV. Blizzard continues to shit on anything broodwar. There was a lot of noise about zerg needs lurkers, what do we get ? A nerfed broodlord. They know terran needs the goliath and they fucked up with the thor but they keep beating around the bush with stupid spinoffs of the unit. Battle helions? That's a firebat you fucks, why not just bring back firebats? And also carriers being replaced for a super corsair.

I'm a bit excited to see what broodwar pro's can do in sc2 but I kinda wish that they would just give blizz the finger for abandoning so much of broodwar.

Blizz doesnt want SC2 to be just another broodwar, let them experiment and try to come up with better options than the original, jeez. The beta isn't even out yet!
Don't let those anti-cheese advocates tell you what to do. Rush to meet life head on!

Fantasy will be the best SC2 player if he switched. The guy's style is made for SC2. He's basically MMA on steroids.


That's funny since MMA was Fantasy's bitch when they were in SKT together. Now MMA thinks he's some big shit. LOL

i don't recall mma acting pompous.
only humble actually.

He seemed so for a long time. Until he betrayed poor Yugioh.

Fantasy just stole Oov's builds and executed them inconsistently, which got him to multiple finals and even a couple of OSL finals and even up 2-0 against Jaedong in an OSL finals (but ended up losing 3-2) xd

He picked yugioh because he said that MVP was going to if he didn't.

If you take broodwar and add new pathing, UI, macro mechanics and a new unit per race that's enough to make it completely different from broodwar without having to undo what's already part of the series.

somehow i felt this change was inevitable... i mean... what else can kespa do?

i think that korean bw is losing popularity steadily and the best solution is to get attention by pushing the sc2 scene with BW players... BW leagues might get more attention if sc2 was added it seems like...

i can see BW players playing sc2 and BW at the same time actually... but it might decrease quality of BW pro scene.

It would also be uninteresting if the top 10 BW players didn't switch and everyone else played both BW and sc2 since those top 10 will forever be top 10.

But as far as rumors go, players here and there are switching, even the big guns.

on the sc2 vs bw side of this discussion...

battle hellion =/= hellbats. go back and play BW if you want lurkers and whatever other units in BW.

Man, it's so hard to be the emperor's sons.


LOL the moment Fantasy joins Slayers, MMA isn't gonna be Boxer's favorite son anymore. Fantasy is naturally better than MMA i feel like


Fantasy's GG timing is also naturally better than MMA's

LOL this was the one thing in the thread that cheered me up hahahahaha


lol

fuck fantasy and his gg timings

i hate that mofo with a passion

We're going off topic but, MMA suggested Yugioh to MVP. MVP was going to pick Yugioh on MMA's suggestion. Not the other way round. There's no denying it. He betrayed him.

EDIT: I still love MMA. But can't forgive him for what he did.
