Not that i really agree with the post you're quoting but the whole SlayerS team is sponsored by Intel, Razer and Pocari Sweat (think it's a pretty large japanese soft drink company). And beside that what are the chances of him getting anything close to a Flash like salary? Hyperbole much? | ||

When i first tried out sc2, I did my warm up games in brood war. And As I was in the mode of peaking my apm, I'd keep that habit in sc2 even though builds wasn't in my backbone I did things with every apm, didn't just stare at the game, let the apm decrease when I lost focus. I think his bw background will make sc2 feel easy now in the beginning. I think that as he's talking about how he hasn't played the game more than two months competetively peoples expectations are quite low. So he can play without huge expectations on himself, just focus on the game. And the game feels easy to him. With this behind him, making the right decisions and using his apm effectively will come easier than other former bw players who's played sc2 for quite some time, have won and lost, gotten their expectations up, lost the comparison to bw, the feeling of the game being easy. Just my theory, but I think it's a big part of it. The most confident player seems to win big, Forgg is perhaps that player right now. | ||

Then again, he definitely seems to be fooling around and trying out timing attack builds, but it'd be interesting to see how he does against other Zergs that have solid defence. | ||

Have you been following anything we've been saying in the CH thread with regards to practice on ladder and the fact that it's a pro's smurf account. ._. | ||

Instead of trying to get a 300k+ salary like some rich ass dude, you choose to post a comment like that on TL? I mean everyone has different capability and skills, you can't make that much money, MMA can't play that good in BW. | ||

Common... everybody know that is a obvious smurf. The real Hydra is practicing broodwar, he plays proleague all weeks and have a salary. | ||

When the hellions do no damage and kill no queens, his build is very manageable. | ||

Well I would imagine that Hydra could beat ForGG in either game easily. He's a much better player than him | ||
