confirming races that were different on several lists:

Nightend (UD)
Rabbit (Orc)
Coldfuzion (HU)

Thought naniwa was a NE player but i guess ill assume wiki is correct.

And as mentioned by someone previous, Soccer did change his name to SlayersVen i think....

former wc3 players that are long gone in the sc2 scene for nostagia's sake:
- Freedom.werra
- Check
- Maka

Axslav played random in wc3 and was known for his creative strats, but didn't have the best results. He was basically the TLO of wc3.


It'd be super cool to see what races people played in WC3. Wasn't ToD like one of the best Undead players? (Which didn't actually mean anything because UD was extremely Underpowered?) Or am I thinking of someone else?

ToD was a human player, Happy (Empire) was on of the best UD



UD was the least played, and considered underpowered in WC3's hay day wasn't it?

if I have to name 4 coolest, smartest and deadliest wc3 players, they all played UD

axslav was known for his cool 2v2 with strifecro, achieving some success in WC3L

Moon is commonly called the fifth race, but his true Korean nicknames were The Fantasista and AndroJang (Andromeda Jang)

SeleCT was part of the SK.intel, the first foreign wc3 proteam in Korea. He went to win back2back WCG in DoW, went back to wc3, disappeared and re-emerged in sc2.

Polt was good enough to emerge from nowhere and make a quarterfinal (iirc) run in one edition of MWL (wc3 MSL-equivalent). Then he just disappeared (for college apparently)

Grubby used to make an excuse for losing out of a Linkin Park song

m00nglade was some mediocre night elf.
Zenio was some mediorce orc on ladder

for the above list:
elfi: UD for team fnatic
rabbit/macsed: human
sjow: oldschool human of team AMD64
Stephano/namaa/coldfuzion: never heard of them, prolly amateur/chobo.


Is Naniwa on your list? I am legitimately curious as to who those would be.

I did some reading up on it when I bought WC3 under the delusion I would actually enjoy DOTA (Not a slight on the game I just got flamed all to hell for being the noob I was/am), and have dabbled against the AI when bored and or drunk. Moon's stuff was impressive and Grubby's series where he commentated a few matches, he recently re uploaded them, were really fun. That game is so complicated.

Stephano if I had heard correctly was known-ish, but not a super top level human player.



Naniwa wasn't all that good at wc3, in fact he was more known for flaming and balance whining than anything.

imo the greatest wc3 UD players (for various reasons) are TeD, Madfrog, Sweet and Lucifer.

I can name a couple of WC3 players I don't think have been mentioned, if they have, I am sorry.

KiWiKaKi (Orc)
XlorD (Undead)
CupCake (Nightelf) (Was named ThomasG in WC3)
Ciara (Orc)
SonKiE (Can't remember)
CrunCher (Human I believe)

Also I think I recall Darkforce played WC3 too. (could be wrong though.)
And didn't BlinG play Halo?

Nice call on Kiwikaki. Sonkie and Cruncher were human. Technoboy (NE) also played a bit of sc2 but not pro.

I had completely forgotten about Madfrog, I wish he would come back to SC2, those games right after release were really fun to watch.

Got to go sample these now.

it'd be much easier to list all the players who DIDN'T come from a different game -_-

I dont sit on all info, so I need the info from you guys to add them. If stuff is not on the list, it's because I did not know of them, I didn't think of them yet, no one mentioned them yet.

Targa is a former WC3 player, 99% sure that he played elf

"imo the greatest wc3 UD players (for various reasons) are TeD, Madfrog, Sweet and Lucifer."

Extremely good players all. Sweet is my personal favorite, but you could argue that FoV had more accomplishments than any of them.
