You know that ForGG won MSL right?

And fOrGG's mechanics are already better than Idra's. Since Idra only knows how to mass drone.


Me saying you only know how to make ignorant posts has just as much fact as what you said.

This is what you get for being Flash's punching bag.
Wait until you see Flash.

I remember in one of his winner interviews, Flash mentioned how he went 79-1 while practicing TvT.

Holy shit that would kill my confidence being his practice partner.

Watching Fin play and I think that his APM is not what I expected. Everything he does looks very normal for a pro, and that's pretty surprising for me. It's his sick reaction time, precise unit control, and multitasking that makes him better than other pros. Fin makes SC2 look easy, and it gives me hope for becoming a good player someday.

He just seems to always know exactly what he's doing and executes it so well. It's like he's playing half asleep in a sense. Doesnt get rattled or thrown out of whack.


BINGO!

That's finger memory baby - something you only acquire after monstrous practice. It's the same for music, speaking as a pianist, it's the ability to carry out tasks without even having to think about it - my fingers just "know" which keys to press on the piano, the same way my fingers just "know" to "5sd6sd7sh8sh9sh" in Broodwar (5 hatch select make drone, 6 hatch select make drone, etc.) or 4dddaaaaaaTABdd playing as Terran in SC2.

Some heavily repeated rhythmic tasks such as a macro production round, or on a higher level a sequence of tasks (multitasking certain situations) become second nature to top Broodwar players, and to a lesser extent, top SC2 players. The analogy here would be: it's easy for me to play Chopin's Revolutionary Etude almost perfectly at any time, but it's infinitely harder for someone with lesser music training to do the same - even if he/she could read music well, she would spend 10x the amount of time playing the notes at 1/10 of my quality. Similarly, something such as managing a 2 front attacks while simultaneously defending a drop and macro'ing become routine and almost "automated" for Bisu, but it's something that's overwhelmingly difficult for me - I would spend 5x the amount of the time on overlapping attacking, macro'ing, scouting and defending tasks at probably 1/5 of their efficiency.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ saving this here because I use it, don't know how to make it, and don't know it's name

It's not his fault that his opponents can't make it past the early game.

yeah lemme just practice against proxy 2 rax when my pool isn't done yet sounds fun

Yes? It doesn't matter if winning that game was next to impossible.

There's a reason why the best players always hold on until it's absolutely 100% over.

The scary thing is the opponent knows what he's doing because he does the same thing every time, but they can't stop it.

Cezanne is holding his attacks pretty well. I guess he knew fOrgg was going this build already. Still required a fuckload of static defenses though.

That was overly aggressive. If he had just let it be and kept his units he'd have probably been in a good position.

I love the way ForGG(I refuse to call him Fin) plays Sc2. Its not the grab as many bases as quick as possible and sit back till max that is almost the norm. He puts on just enough pressure that its not an all in but still does damage, takes very late expansions etc. which makes a lot more interesting games with constant action instead of waiting for both players to max and engage in one big battle. <3 can't wait to see how he can do ins Code S!
