Hopefully all three races are far more even by the time BoxeR comes back. I'll love him no matter what race he plays, but it just wouldn't feel right seeing him play anything other than Terran. If not then maybe we'll see some really awesome new strategies out of him in HoTS with either Zerg or Protoss.

Fruitdealer cried about balance despite winning- first best player, the game was obviously broken.
Nestea cried about balance despite winning- guy is so good that he can win with broken race.
DRG- same as Nestea.
MMA/MKP/MVP/Any other terran cries about balance- the game is balanced and terran abusers can't get anymore free wins.

You people are full of shit.


The difference is that the first ones cried about imbalance for more than a year (and they were right all along). The last, have just been crying for a month, and there aren't that many statistics to back up their claims yet. They have 11 months to go to be fair for P and Z.

well, I want boxer staying with terran, but If I have to choose between zerg or toss, I will choose toss for boxer, sc2 toss is in some way ¨similar¨ to bw terran and have more micro

If you can't beat them, join them!

If boxer does switch, I'll have to stop supporting him - especially if he plays protoss

He probably won't. He said he would switch for WOL too, but stood by Terran in the end. He is our Terran Emperor forever.

All of the top terrans will switch, you can't win with Terran right now. Look at the tournaments: TSL3 only 1 terran qualified yet; Dreamhack - a ZvP fest; GSTL with 90% ZvZs...

Sooner or later it will be ok. Terrans will once again innovate and if that doesn't work we will, for the first time in who knows how long, have a terran buff.

He said he was going to while ago, and Blizzard never patched anything;
... He's still Terran.
Will he switch? No, he's just trying to rally everyone and get Blizzards attention.

Just like when IdrA lost to MorroW at the first IEM. There was a MASSIVE uproar against the reaper and terran in general, I believe it was patched within the coming week(s).

The reaper build/tactic was taught to MorroW by Dimaga himself the NIGHT PRIOR to the championship, in order to cause an uproar and show Blizzard how broken it was.

Boxer is trying the samething here by showing the world Terran is so weak that even the 'Emperor' of Terran is switching.

Convincing, we'll see if its a bluff soon enough.

nice story, but there isn't facts man, If he is going to switch because terran is so weak he would make another statement, not just is sc2 is easy to switch races, and I can switch if I want nobody can say me: NO!

Doesn't bother me as long as he starts dominating again. Though the sentiment to the change bothers me a bit. "Emperor of Terran" would have lost all meaning to me... T_T

Big news, but is it true? Koreans have a strange sense of humor of it comes to that.

probably a good decision, it will make sure he won't get injured again. And while its sad, i would look forward to the new zerg or toss tricks that would come out. Especially Zerg could need some progress in micro.

Every player is prone to threatening a race switch when times seem hard. BoxeR has done this before, and will most definitely do it again. I doubt he will go through with it though.

No way is he really switching. He just wants to put some pressure on Blizz to buff terran. They just might..

He won't switch. Koreans always do this shit... It's like they're trying to put pressure on Blizzard or something...
