Even though I only learned about competitive Starcraft late and never watched much BW, I'm soooo pumped to see Jaedong play zerg in sc2.

I forget where I read it... but someone made a great post about how this whole mixed league situation is incredibly unfair to the players =\ I'll keep looking for it, might have been on reddit.

On another note, I hope the majority of the players making the switch don't play Terran.

As a zerg and as a Jaedong fan, I actually don't want the guy to switch to Zerg. I want him to maintain his death stare, not a sad face we've been seeing from the top Zergs recently.
Remember not only to say the right thing in the right place, but far more difficult still, to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

Seems like most of them kept the same races, not really that "extreme"... I like Flash's POV the best, "take 2-3 years to be as good as he was" meaning that he isn't coming in thinking "I'm god" but thinking "I will be god again"

I don't know much about Light in BW but Artosis keeps referring Clide as the "Light[alive] of SC2". Is Light like the Clide of Broodwar?

Seriously, these guys need to wait for HOTS. Or Blizzard should at least provide them with early access to HOTS. It just seems strange, they're figuring out the future of their careers through the inevitable switch to SC2, and HOTS really looks like it'll change a lot of things.

Besides, WOL is fine as it is. When looking at SC2 far in the future, WOL should remain as SC2: Part One, the part where no one really dominated the scene for a while and people were figuring out the game for the longest time.

Whereas I'm hoping SC2: Part Two will be the part where Brood War pros switch, the term 'bonjwa' is finally used, and the gap between foreigners and Koreans widen even more.

It was on MVP interview, that he said that they didnt took the players into consideration.

I dont get why they choose terran just cuz they think they are strongest and not which race is the most fun.

Ever heard of patches korea?

"This has been stated from many players and coaches all over the BW teams that BW zerg players are having a hard time in SCII."


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?


What league are you? Unless you're top 5 Master you really shouldn't say anything about "Zerg feeling hard". The effect of balance on your results is dwarfed by the effect of your own skill.


And there goes elitism.


It's not elitism. The game is balanced enough that the tiny imbalances won't decide your games.

Who are you to say the game is "balanced enough"? For the game to really be balanced, two people of even skill should always play very close games. Therefore, balance is just as relevant for lower leagues as higher leagues because skill is a factor. Skill is impossible to give a value to of course so testing balance is near impossible.

It is impossible for Blizzard to balance the game for every skill level. Do you think Blizzard should balance for high level play or low level play?

High level ofc. I was just tired of people saying balance doesn't exist in the lower leagues because it does. And really who should they balance for? The Korean scene shows zergs are having far more trouble than they are in the foreign scene so a zerg buff will make the Korean zergs on par but may make the foreign zergs more powerful in their respective scenes.
