I like MC but if he really says this it must've been a joke or maybe out of frustration from losing to harass. He's one of the only Protosses that I watch play, and his playstyle is obviously much easier to execute than the one of the top Terrans, so it would be very foolish of him to say that. | ||

The interview itself is so cool, yet this community manages to turn it into a shitfest. | ||

Warpgates is a perfect example of this. In BW, reinforcement speed is always an issue regardless of race. So playing against a race where they can reinforce on the front-lines instantly would take time to adjust. Zerg with creep spread is a lesser version of this. Whereas terran in both games have the same reinforcement time issue. So before Flash and other BW veterans adjust to such metagame changes, of course they'd find certain things unfair. To me the biggest gap is how current BW progamers think. They intuitively believe in a certain set of "rules" that guide them when it comes to making decisions in-game. But SC2 has a completely different set of rules. And they must get familar with the new ones before they can truly think of the game properly. | ||

His offrace terran is high GM on the korean server. | ||

For progamers like Flash, who have basically revolved their entire way of thinking around BW strategies and counter-strategies, something completely new would most certainly seem OP at first.

Plus, what race has won the last two MLGs? Terran. Terran is not the weakest, he doesn't even know this game is played yet and yet he judges it like he is the best at it. He may have been the best at BW but he is not the best at this. The question is: Do I ban you for player bashing? or for religious intolerance? | ||
