if blizzard designed the game so counters aren't that big a deal, maybe imbalances can be lived with. but thats not the case, counters are everything in this game and it sucks because of that.

i'm 100% behind emperor's decision.

Sounds like bullshit to me. Boxer isnt famous because hes the best, hes famous because he represents terran players. This is like career suicide


Well, he was the best at a certain point in time.

I'm sure Boxer will pull through. Before his heyday, Terran was considered weak which was why chose to use the race. I'm sure T's will think of something in time.


Like what? All terrans are struggling. As in all.

Hopefully Blizzard fixes this mess and Boxer remains a Terran...



Yeah, I'm aware that all Terrans are struggling what with Mvp having 0% winrate in TvZ in practice while MKP has 10% winrate in practice. I'm just trying to be optimistic.

All P's struggled back in BW until the Bisu build after all. Then again, I'm too lazy to pull out stats or check if that's entirely accurate.



There was potential for P to actually beat Z though, great control by Grrr in his legendary match vs ZergLee demonstrated that a P army with excellent control is full well and capable of taking on a Z player late game. Not to mention most P's before Bisu were utilizing alot of gimmicky but potentially good Sair/Reaver/DT builds already, it's just that no one had ever pulled off a well executed and planned out forge expand into DT/Sair/Reaver play with excellent multitasking to boot.


There is no such hope for T right now against Z in WoL.

It doesn't matter what race he plays, everyone will still love watching him get on the stage and play. Stop complaining already.
All I care about is his health, I hope he recovers well.

There's a lot more money on the line this time so it's kind of pointless to spend 5 months "figuring things out" when you could have reasonable success with another race. I'm pretty sure MVP would still be one of the best in code S no matter what race he played.

Either way I can't wait until he comes back. HOTS + Boxer will be a lot of fun.

honestly I don't think he will change.
Playing the other two races is no walk in the park.
Boxer is too engrained into the Terran path to learn how to creep spread or force field.

I personally think if Mvp did this GSL as Zerg he'd win it.

LOL you're right ^^

When you play in tournaments, you have to listen to the game music right? Terran is way better. It's more relaxing too I think... p and z music is ominous/dangerous sounding X)



Honestly I don't think he will switch neither. Maybe he just wanted to express this idea again just to see what the fans' reactions are like. Maybe if a lot of people are accepting he will truly think about switching. If people are against it, he may just stay.

Yeah, with the injury and all, I think it's a wise decision for him to switch to toss or zerg.
Mmm, what to watch.

Very true. I tried switching to zerg, but I hate the HUD, mouse, and Music.

For some reason I'm excited. lol.

I'd be sad seeing him drop Terran as his race, but to see the tactics he'd use with Zerg or Protoss would still be awesome.

There is only one Emperor of Terran so i don't think he will switch. He once said

I don't believe in superstitions but i did feel that there was something special about the nickname "Emperor of Terran" that was given to me. Though I regulary practice over then hours and my entire body feels like it will melt down, I hold myself up, thinking "I should live up to that name."

So in the interview he might be expressing his frustration from the recent events like MKP,MMA,MVP did.
