Good luck hyun , despite some people may label you as a bad zerg , watching your games has always been fun and you are one kind of a zerg pretty unique especially trying to go crazy zerg on 3 hatch .

NesTea was god-awful in Brood War. Why the HyuN scrutiny?

NesTea's BW career was a pretty strange one and it's unfair to call it a failure or him 'god-awful' without looking at it in more detail. First of all, he started pretty late after completing his military service which 99.9% of other progamers do not do. He also didn't really get a full shot at 1v1s and was pushed into doing 2v2s when they were still part of the league. You can understand why he didn't really shine as a SC1 progamer.

Really excited to see what Hyun brings, I think he's more talented than MVP. Hyun's at least a solid A teamer even though his record is bad.

Bad BW-Players are soooo overrated! They just switch to SC2 because they are too bad to make money in BW.

Hyun was always an entertaining personality, I hope he gets chances to work the mic in SC2 as well ^^
oh yeah, it would be cool if he were good at the game, whatever

MVP is like the worst example you could ever pick, he actually did decent in bw before he switched.

Like I heared MVP was Top8 of the BW Proleague at the point he switched. This new guy looks like complete trash compared to MVP. I bet 100€ he won't win ANYTHING in 2012.

Mvp was top 40 at his peak

If Hyuk switches to SC2, I will watch every single one of his games. And if he ever wins anything I will probably die of laughter.

He obviously heard wrong.

No need to sugarcoat it... Nestea was just bad in BW, and if he were any good he'd have gotten a shot at more tournaments outside of 2v2. I doubt 2v2 was his choice or preference, it's just that he wasn't able to make it.
But to be fair, I wouldn't say he was worse at all at BW than everyone in sc2 not named MVP.

Anyways this is going to be awesome. I think Hyun will play kinda like July, aggressive as hell but hopefully he doesn't toss won games by suiciding his whole army.
This transition will be easy for him, he's got Zergs like Nestea and Losira and Leenock to learn from instead of figuring everything out this time last year.

With Hyun's playstyle ... he might actually do pretty good in SC2.
|
Nice! I'm very excited to see how the new sc:bw kids will do in sc2! I will be surprised if they do not get in code A/S, but will they actually take titles?
