Brilliant idea. Some of these really are fun to imagine.

Symbol could've gotten the appreciation he deserved to close out WoL, instead he's barely remembered as even a Kong.

Or Mvp, against all odds, wins s4 of 2012 the gsl run of miracles.

After this, a "Darkest Timeline" version of SC2 would be great: "The year is 2015. In a world ravaged by the dreaded Brood Lord/Infestor/Swarm Host composition, Sniper and Roro meet in their 10th consecutive GSL finals."


Terran and Protoss reach an all-time low, with only 2 representatives of each race remaining... in Code A.

edit: Oh god, I just realized, this is a world where Polt beats HerO in that IEM during the height of protoss domination...

Poor TaeJa. the kong of foreign tournaments. At least JD would be a blizzcon winner... and sOs the kong in 100k tournaments.
And we would have a real bonjwa in sc2.
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

Great article
Gonna be funny if continued to hear about the dominance of soO and how bad sOs is at 100k tournaments
soOjwa has returned to smite all that stand in his way

Broodlord/Infestor will be exactly the same as reality since all the finals ended up being between ZvZs between players with equally interchangeable styles .

Also soO the Bonjwa--winner of 4 consecutive GSLs (not counting the GSL world championship).

Desperate to see only T players win major/premier tournaments, TheDwf will write a beautiful article about how Starcraft has become Tcraft.

As the only unbiased Terran player, he correctly identifies that Terran is unfairly strong and recommends changes through meticulous analysis of one hundred Terran games, debunking misconceptions about Terran's alleged weaknesses and forcing Blizzard's hand.

In fact, wouldn't an alternate timeline TheDwf on the contrary lie about numbers and use his voluble style to make people think T is fair, resulting in a new BL/infestor era ? I don't think of TheDwf as a particularly biased T.

Can we get a link to the BW version by Lumos on Fomos, then? Is it in English? Seems like it'd be more interesting.

is this the one where soO finally wins all those gsls
also sOs will win all those 100k tournaments with strong macro play which inevitably defeats the mindgames and cheesy strategies that JD and herO pulls
KT best team

It's hard to know if the alternate timeline is a "negative" of what happened in reality (like NaNiwa being a mannered guy) or just changes at some huge turning points (like MarineKing dominating Mvp in finals). It's fun either way

I'm pretty sure he's going to lose all of those tournaments, actually...

So are you going to recalculate the WCS points too? Sounds like fun...
