My memory is of him massing starports in a corner of his base and going massive Wraiths in BW. Or his Vulture control. If I were a coach and needed a terran back in the day, sure, Boxer, or Iloveoov would be great. Even better would be Flash, the greatest terran ever, but if I wanted to throw a wrench in the machinery of my opponent ... I would use Fantasy. Yeah ... I mean it. Fantasy is in my opinion probably the most intelligent player to ever play the game. He was not the greatest in pure mechanics (hmm ... yeah that could use some improvement), but had great micro ... not the best but top tier definitely. What he had in spades was game sense. Boxer had micro and intelligence, Iloveoov had macro and intelligence and then Nada and the greatest of the terrans Flash that seemed to have every thing. But Fantasy (and to some extent Skyhigh) seemed to have a field marshals sense of warfare.The ability to create a victory out of a whisper. Fantasy is one of the greatest terrans of all time. | ||

Yeah, he gave us that amazing win on king sejong station, but he also gave us losses we'd rather forget. My memory is of him massing starports in a corner of his base and going massive Wraiths in BW.

I feel like you downplayed BW Fantasy too much even though you tried to be nice lol. He overtook Flash in the end of brood war. His vulture micro was THE best of any terran player. I feel his coaches took too much credit for his abilities. | ||
