Cool to hear that even A class BW players don't think the game is easy mode.

I'm glad i'm not the only one who thinks zerg is so hard in sc2.

I wonder what Blizzard will think of this?

Does that mean the zerg players from broodwar that play zerg in sc2?

They're probably saying it because the mechanics and styles are different, not the race itself

They're going to be playing in a combined BW/SC2 league for months, which requires players to alternate between both games. They're going to suck trying to practice for both games until they fully complete the switch. BW play was so sloppy recently while they were secretly practicing SC2.

It's probably even worse for the ones that switched races.

Jaedong must stick with Zerg. I think my heart would break if he would switch (especially if its to Terran).

I got sources from various articles on Fomos.
However, you can't get an exact link anymore from fomos since like 2 weeks ago because they changed it for some reason (ex. every single page is just http://fomos.kr)

As a Zerg player in BW who switched races during the sc2 beta, I just wanted to say that "zerg players are having a difficult time transitioning to zerg in sc2" is not the same thing as "zerg in sc2 is bad." I feel like zerg was affected much more than the other races by the changes in worker saturation, which really changes the zerg game plan. Also, I feel like lurker, mutilisk, and defiler control were also very important defining characteristics of a good zerg in bw that don't come into play in sc2 (obviously mutas are still good, but they play very differently). But none on these thing actually mean that zerg is worse or even harder than terran or protoss in sc2.
However, I wouldn't be suprised if more bw zerg switch than terran or protoss just because the transition to sc2 with zerg feels so wierd. To be honest after playing bw zerg, sc2 zerg just seems really boring and lame.

I don't think you're right. E.g. last news: http://www.fomos.kr/board/board.php?mode=read&keyno=124442&db=interview
You just right click -> copy link (Firefox at least).

I'd love for all of the BW players to stick with their current races, but at the end of the day only they know whats best for them. After having been pro players they'd have to know by now which race suits their style more. Hell, maybe some of the B teamers could be damn near S class players if they switched up races?

I think the players should think about how their style will fit their new races.

Leta: definitely stay terran. He loves being cute and aggressive, and terran has the most options for that kind of play

Flash: Not really sure because to me he has no real "style". On one hand he loves greedy macro builds and playing for the lategame, which would be better fit as toss or zerg imo. On the other hand, he has always had a penchant for mixing in cheese. I don't think it really matters for a player of his caliber.

Jangbi: His lategame control is amazing and he should stick to toss, maybe zerg as well. I never thought he should have been toss in BW anyway.

Movie: Terran imo. loves mixing things up with non-standard play similar to leta.
