elfi can up his clicks when the situation requires him to. He was rocking a solid 244 during one of his Dreamhack fights.

Well this season is already underway so he will have to wait for someone to drop out of GM.

What happened to "All tosses are slobs?"

Joke aside; he should do whatever makes him happy, of course.
I can't help but be sad that there are so few good foreign (and especially swedish) Terrans, though. Thorzain is playing half-time, Morrow is a cool guy but hasn't been very high-profile since the HotS-beta, and now Sjow switches races.

I mean honestly when EU GM has literally over twice as many protoss as terran you can't really blame him. Pretty much every foreign terran that has switched race has found more success, TLO to zerg, ROOTMinigun to protoss for example. I don't think literally any foreigner has ever switched to terran and found success. Judging by GM %'s it seems a lot of regular ladder folks have made the switch as well. Will he be beating koreans as toss? maybe not, are his chances of beating koreans higher as toss? Well if ToD 2-0ing mc is any indication, or just foreigner terran vs korean winrates in general it almost seems like a sure thing just by the nature of the races. Before someone says it, yes we know the game is balanced around taeja and innovation.

They both switched in Wings though. In Wings, the cumulative amount of time where one race was a decent amount stronger than the others, terran definitely takes the lead. Considering how few people switch races at all, your example is kinda poor.
Refer to my post.

It should be interesting to see a pro player give an opinion on protoss when he isn't hilariously biased for protoss or against protoss.

Sjow isn't a great example of that, though.

I never understood that about him anyway, because I do agree that protoss would fit his playstyle better.
