top SC2 players could go like this. 1. Flash (terran) 2. Jaedong? (Zerg) 3. Jangbi(Protoss) 4. Bisu (Protoss) 5. MMA?(terran) 6 Fantasy(Terran) 7. MVP(terran) 8. zero(zerg) 9. Huk(Protoss) 10. MC(Protoss) Shuttle, Calm, Hyuk are probably top 20 MKP, Ryung, Puzzle, Rainbow are top 50. If Effort gets back in the money game.. he could be a dark horse. Stephano is also a wild card. he could be top five he decides SC2 as a career. Nestea would be probably around top 15. | ||

MC(Protoss) Shuttle, Calm, Hyuk are probably top 20 It's a pretty good chance that players like Flash, Jaedong, Bisu are gonna be good and probably even great, but trying to do a ranking like this is somewhat ridiculous. Some BW players might not catch on or be inspired by SC2...also I think it's a good chance a lot of them will change races. If you can start a new game and you're playing to be a pro and win in something like the GSL..how likely are you to pick Protoss right now? | ||

So eventually Protoss will be able to compete against any race. It would be interesting to see Flash as Protoss. Jaedong as Protoss. Bisu as Terran though | ||

Jaedong will always by zerg, Flash terran, Bisu protoss etc. It's gonna feel weird if any of them are race switching. | ||

I've seen him play Z and P and he's a monster at all three races. | ||

None of the bigger name BW players switched races, I don't think. Boxer still T, July still Z, Nada still T, Nestea still Z, MVP still T, and Yellow would have still been Z if he had continued. Only pros that might switch are the Protoss... but nah. Once a Brotoss, always a Brotoss. Aiur4lyfe. Or well, my life for Aiur. Same diff. | ||

Currently, it appears to everyone (other than terran players on TL, obviously) that terran is the more successful race. Some may choose to switch to terran for the new game after seeing the recent GSLs | ||

When I hear remarks that SC2 won't evolve, all I have to do is recall GSL Open 1 and compare it against any recent tournament. ya I still remember day9 using hydralisks in ZvT against tasteless in beta and how everyone was surprised about muta baneling used in ZvT | ||

We're talking about master league accounts with less than 100 career wins. We've got master league accounts that were in gold and platinum last season. There's a possibility that these are smurf accounts or just people that have gotten better, but the sheer number of accounts I'm finding, even beyond what was listed earlier, is nothing short of unbelievable. | ||

I'd guess that every B teamer and practice partner on almost every team is being told to prepare in case proleague decides to add sc2. Thats a whole fuckton of people, could possibly account for that? | ||

You can look at their all-time stats on SC2ranks and see how that account has progressed, and a lot of these accounts were just made in the last two weeks. Some of them in late September, but most of them only at the end of Season 3. Most of the accounts are in Korean, except for a few. Like this one. (lol) http://sc2ranks.com/kr/2948548/Practice | ||

Terran or Zerg more effectively make use of high multitasking ability and Bisu above anyone else does that. | ||
