They're only human - they'll get creamed. TSL_Hyun only played for a few months and got through the Code A prelims. We don't actually know for how long these guys have been practicing sc2 either, and they still have like 1-2 months to prepare if it happens. I wouldn't count them out too soon. | ||

And you underestimate the difference in skill the sc2 pros have even to themselves a year ago. Not every SC2 player practices poorly dude. I hope this doesn't turn into some dumb sc2 vs bw thing but there is no way without significant practice or funky all in builds that the BW pros would win without quite a lot of practice. Will they learn faster then those who never played BW? Sure. Many skills go both ways but they wont win MLG with a month of playing while they still play BW. -_- | ||

And Hyun has pretty much lost any match he has been in since then. He has barely done anything. He would get stomped by anyone in code S. | ||

Not to discount his achievements but, he had an arguably easy bracket. After all GGanDoL made it through as well. Seeing his games at Dreamhack it's pretty clear he's still got that BW gamesense and that doesn't really translate 100% to SC2. | ||

If it's someone like MKP or NesTea who can practice up to 14 or 16 hours then they will beat a BW player with less experience. But I believe the average practice time for SC2 players is lower. | ||

Would be cool to see some good BW players play at MLG(Showmatch tourney or in the real tourney) | ||

"there gonna own when they come to SC2" most of these people who make comments never even watched BW untill SC2 came out and just hearing the "hype" of these BW players. All of these speculations of Flash being in Masters in a month like who cares so was Yellow did people not remember? i Started watching competitive SC2 when "SC2:WOL" came out and i know most of the posters on the website are the same.. i really wish they make a tournament SC2 pros vs BW pros so i can watch DRG, MKP, PartinG own up Flash, Bisu, and Jaedong edit[off topic] type in: zerg rush in google and see what happens! lol | ||

Yea like the match fixing for smash brawl, They dropped the game from the league. I felt srry for the Smash community that 2 players forced MLG to drop the game from the line up. | ||
