Thanks for the interview, this is fantastic! I really hope BW pro's don't get influenced a whole lot by current SC2 pro's and hit the scene with an entirely new style!
The only way to attack structure is with chaos.

This is what i'm hoping too, but i don't think that's whats going to happen. They'll just look at what are the cookie cutter builds right now and just practice those 24/7. It's the quickest way to catch up.

yep thats exactly how they will do it.
thats basically how the practice worked in sc1 aswell in the pro houses. the B teamers wouldnt often sit and practice new builds or new styles etc and instead justs "copy" generic playstyle or new builds of A teamers. meanwhile the top A players would bring the team forward

once they get code A level of play they will probably innovate as much as other code A and S players
Progamerpls no copy pasterino

Humility.

Also, could be a relative statement to what he was in Brood War.

Well, I guess he wants to say with this, that, if he wouldn't be a noob, he would've been KR masters league in 1-2 days ;P
No just joking, I guess he has the right mindset, and doesn't think the highest of himself right now, so he actually can improve as quickly as possible.

I think the coaches of these bw players need to show them a couple of extremely high end games, MVP's old mech games, games with much multitask from MMA, some vulgarly precise 2base timings from last years MC etc, so they get motivated.

He's comparing with being the best of the best. With those standards then yes, he's a noob.

Somebody refresh my memory: What was basically everyone's reaction when SC2 was announced and people for the first time heard about or saw colossi, forcefields, and warpgate in action?

We can't not talk about the Season 1 final. How did you feel at the time?
I'm not as affected by losing as people might think. It only makes me angry at the time and then I tend to forget it immediately. I cried because I was touched by the fans, but I'm okay. Even though I lost they all cheered "Lee Young Ho Fighting". I cried because of the fans. It was the first time I felt something like that. Because I prepared very hard and did everything in my power I have no regrets. I accepted defeat.

This gem of a quote has been lost amidst all the SC2 comments and hype. This mindset makes me more excited for more Flash than anything really.

Lee Young Ho fighting


Agreed, this is what makes people like flash goddamn superheroes.

Probably that they are bad designed and shouldn't be in RTS and definitly not in Starcraft.

Now ask pretty much anyone that isn't Protoss with no BW experience what they still think about these things today. I would bet my left nut that the answers will be the same.

* Damnit Noocta. You can't post a picture of Bisu when we are talking about colossi. All I can think of now is that there is no reaver+shuttle play in favour of colossi. And now when Bisu is playing SC2 and all...

This reaction:

Because when we first saw it, it was shiny and cool, people didn't care about anything else.

There was actually a survey taken and the majority of TLers play Zerg, then Toss and the least amount of players played Terran.

E: Maybe just Flash oriented
Starcraft 2 was designed to have a best race. You play the worst one.

Its just like MVP said, running two games in parallel, no matter how much you want to see Flash play SC2, is going to cause a deterioriation of skill in both games.


sign, this is the end of high level broodwar or maybe high level starcraft (at least for the next 3 or 4 years). I fear even the last OSL will run at a pretty low skill level compared to before.

Also his wrists are still hurting him.

He said it was just part of the recovery process so it should be fine.

People arguing that SC2 and all of the races are balanced are either lying to themselves or are drinking the "everythings balanced" koolaid. SC2 is not balanced and never will be balanced due to Blizzards game design philsophy that they employed in SC2.

I can completely agree with Flash had to say about Protoss being overpowered, it doesnt take a pro gamer to see that something is imbalanced. If anything, HOTS should be about giving all of the races equal units with different upgrades (that balance each other out) that they can get to make strategy and micro play a bigger role, while making each level of each matchup balanced due to having nearly identical units from all of the races serving the same roles. Each race should also have a creep spread mechanic to further attunete the importance of good macro.
