Hmm, I've been watching his stream and he makes many, many mistakes. He certanly does not rape ladder like HerO or Stephano have.

ForGG played like this in Broodwar too. He was very known for his timing, gamesense and beastly macro.

He seems still raw in many areas. Most times he's pretty much overwhelming his opponents with his BW mechanics, and it doesn't look like he understands all the details of SC2 completely yet. This is so compelling to watch because of the possibilities of SC2 with more A class BW players of other races (toss / zergs) switch.

I don't think he could play starcraft 2, because of 3D.
His perception would be too much of a hindrance i suppose.

Who are past their prime, but in their respective primes tore up the scene AFAIK.

Yep - they are waaaaaaay past their prime. Just check TLPD and watch some of the VODS of BW games from back in 2006-2008. The standard of games / the strategies employed are all sub-par to the games we are seeing today. Taek-Bang-Lee-Sang are on a totally different level than Nada, Boxer, July and the lot.

July's win-rate in his last few years of BW was pathetic. Nada maintained a mediocre standard near the end of his BW career.

That's why little known players like Mvp was called one of the "best" to switch from BW - not because he won an OSL, but because his skill level was the highest out of all the Ex-BW's to have switched.

Also SCII was ... volatile. It's still volatile and HoTS will rip apart the whole metagame once again sigh.
ogsMC, aka "MBCgame Suicide Toss" used to be known as "Iron" in BW. He was called "suicide toss" because he played extremely risky and acted ballsy. Point being, he lost most of his games lol

I glanced at July's last 10 games and ForGG's and ironically July won more of them than Forgg did. People need to just wait and see how people do before proclaiming them the best ever. Also, people like MC and MVP simply got better chances to do well here and likely put in more effort. That alone can explain a big part of why they do better here.

Why are you trying to pretend like you know who was good in BW by using those stats? When people say forgg was better than july at the ends of their career it's not even close.

Dunno, back then I watched every single game in proleague and MSL and OSL and ForGG actually was always really good but just had silly fails, when he retired he still was like #16 in kespa rank and just got into top 8 in a big tournament I think, also he pretty much always played macro while july cheesed most of the time in his past games. Also it's very likely july played worse opponents than forgg at the time, you can't just look at it like that. Also the people who say MVP was better than forgg when he retired clearly didn't follow the scene enough

...? I've been watching for a while and he's been playing mostly zergs/protosses. Also, he doesn't have very many losses at all.

Here's his record : http://kr.battle.net/sc2/ko/profile/2842545/1/Raptor/matches

And recently it's been terrans I guess, but all day today and yesterday it's been like zergs/protosses. And yeah, he lost to TOP but he's 2-1 then cause he's beaten him twice today.

So why are you posting? All I have said is that I have been watching his stream the last hour and a half and he gets many many terrans and that he lost a lot to them.

I didn't say his record is bad, just that he lost a lot today, and mostly vs t.

That is blindly fanboism.

Well, considering he's lost a total of 3 games in the past 14 games I don't know what you're talking about exactly. If you've only been watching for an hour and a half which constitutes about 4-5 games, why did you bother to ask?
