It feels like his injury is just an excuse to leave the scene without revealing that he's lost his passion. | ||

I'm sure that if the last professional baseball game ever were played in a week and a bunch of retired old men were invited for one last game of catch, they would sure as hell show up. | ||

To be fair, I think Nada was really the one that popularized the macro-focused style. Boxer had his little tricks, but it was mostly micro based. | ||

I'm sure this isn't going to be anything like practicing for code S for him. As for him using his injury as an excuse to stop playing... lolno. | ||

Still hope he loses and stays retired forever. This is an extremely narrow view of a player. Flash has some famous cheeses under his belt, too. Jaedong has 5pooled more than anyone I know. But it's still not a lot, because good names like this get a lot of appearances. For instance, JD might have a lot of 5pools, but that's because he's on TV all the time. He's on TV because he's good in general, and a small part of that means mixing shit up. It's not about doing a cheese rush. It's impossible to build an entire career out of cheese rushes. If you think Boxer did that, you must respect him more than any of us, because you think he did the impossible. When you get to playing Bo5s on the OSL stage, you learn to figure out situations in a series where it can pay off to have very specialized, highly aggressive builds prepared. This doesn't mean 5pooling your way up the ranks on iCCup. It means creating a situation - inside the game and out - where you've confounded your opponent and turned the game into a game of control, where you're confident you can beat him. It's about making your opponent fight on your terms, in the context of your game plan. | ||

If Boxer could macro at all, I don't think he would have been losing to non Korean players in tournaments or have been demoted to the B team and forced to retire because he couldn't make it in to any lineups. Boxer has the worst win % of anyone that is talked of as god. How many free wins did he get off people when everyone was clueless on how to play? I just don't get the deal about the guy. I'm still irked about being pumped for Oov vs Boxer on rush hour. I knew it was boxer playing, but I felt good about the chances of not seeing 2 rax. Proxy 2 rax in Oov's base, the story of Boxers career. How riveting. Only one can be as gosu as Boxer, even though everyone at low level on ladder seems to be eerily similar. | ||

You've demonstrated a complete lack of understanding of how Starcraft developed as an esport and how the esport industry developed. Educate yourself before you continue to talk. | ||

Educate yourself before you continue to talk. I don't care who the first best player was when everyone sucked. Just like I don't care who the best SC 2 player was during beta. It's ridiculous over glorification, just because of the time period they played in. Guess what amazing Terran that no one talks about has a better career win percent than Boxer. Midas. I'm happy I wasn't around to see Esports start out in SC, because I derive no enjoyment from watching repeated all-ins. The only series I enjoyed from boxer was vs anytime, where boxer failed with cheese and had to resort to playing like he was a pro gamer, and somehow won. | ||
