Funny to see you praising his multitasking and ability to 'keep his resources below 400'.. You see in BW, that doesn't ever come up as a topic of discussion, like you would never hear a progamer say to another progamer, screw that, practice partners saying to each other "Hey you need to macro/multitask better at the late gaem etc.", it's way too basic a requirement to mention. They talk about very very MINUTE details and subtle micro that decided the game's outcome, the timings that were late and so on so forth. So for a BW A-teamer at time of transferring, you shouldn't expect less. Hope to see him a GSL champion soon. | ||

Google/torrents man, obviously you didn't expect anyone to provide links or give specific tips and get banned? Plus, it's only like $10, and most matches in code A have at least 1 game that's free to view on GomTV.net. | ||

It should be quite obvious to anyone by now that when Artosis determine a player to be uber-gosu it should be taken with a grain of salt. Standard Artosis to hype up bad players (which only has gotten worse since his transition to SC2) REALLY #2 TERRAN IN THE WORLD! | ||

Been watching him play for the last hour, and just WOW. I sincerely hope he's playing on an account with a "low" (he's #1 Masters in his division, but still) MMR, because he's just STOMPING everyone he plays; last two games weren't even close, both his toss and zerg opponent just rolled over and died to some very standard stuff, like hellion + banshee or a simply medivac push. He has near-perfect early-mid game macro/micro, he just doesn't forget things, delay production rounds, or slip up even a little bit if he doesn't have to multitask at more than 2 places at once :O Wow, just wow, just open another Terran stream and compare the differences. | ||

ForGG reminds me of MKP, strong pushes and micro, i feel he has a better understanding of the game than MKP and doesn't have the mental weakness of MKP neither but it's the same "kind" of playstyle. I hope he'll grow better and better and stop doing timing attacks every game (yeah, i know he's known for that^^), if not, strong players will figure out his playstyle and know how to scout what he's doing and than proceed to hardcounter it. He's kind of "new" for almost every player so... I'm not saying that he's not as good as he seems to be, he's really really strong but i just hope he'll not follow the path so many good players followed before falling into darkness. I think being a former BW pro gives him a lot of flexibility and creativity, he's really refreshing to watch. I'm a fan already  PS: nice write up, good job OP He beat jaedong 3x with sick macro when he won his title. He's a pretty well rounded player. | ||

I thought it was some no-name amateur ahahaha, first the failed ramp block, then liberal amounts of drone losses to 3 badly damaged hellions despite lings/3 queens, the complete unpreparedness for the banshees, and then the classic rage quit haha. And... he just did it again. Just stomped another Z, was it idra? I was typing wasn't watching closely, but yah the z just rage quit after a standard timing hellion run-by. BUT! I have a 33% chance of winning against him if I meet him on ladder! He skimps on marines worse than a greedy iloveoov, and scouts on... 16? OMOMNOMNOM, delicious all-in proxies:D | ||

During a season in which the maps were unanimously declared imbalanced. He's a timing oriented player, and while there is nothing wrong with that, his play against a more well rounded player (i.e not all micro like Polt or all aggression like July) might show his true skill. | ||

This guy is the real deal man. Hes not even using any special builds, just really standard builds and he is owning the heck out of everyone in the early game. Its not that hes cheesing or what, just that his opponents can't keep up with him to the mid game. | ||
