The same style actually winning can be found at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwdfrlVA1_4, or the SK-reality rematch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJDw-mffaK0, which can help contextualize the game above. Surely there's room in your sadistic hearts for such a great game? I remembered watching that game live lol  | ||

Many SCV pulls were had, many mech (or Protoss) vs swarm host stalemates played. And a lot of other things not everybody liked, as exciting as the death of 300 workers per game via hellbats may sound. HotS had a lot of stuff to remember fondly and a lot of things nobody will miss. | ||

HotS had a lot of stuff to remember fondly and a lot of things nobody will miss. on the other hand - TvZ parade push style with many of the greatest games of all time, Chargelot templar PvT with games like Dear vs Maru or Polt vs HerO, Blink Sentry PvZ micro wars.... HotS definitely had its good sides as well, | ||

I personally got pretty tired of watching it too since the only real deviation from +2 blink stalkers was all-ins and Zergs often looked really helpless even against just lots of stalkers. | ||

Well, I guess he wants to say that no major BW pro translated his success into Sc2, maybe Jaedong was the closest one; Rain would be a better answer but his BW successes came after his Sc2 career ended. NesTea, Mvp, Innovation, Zest, Stats, soO, Classic weren't really that strong in Brood War; Hydra and ForGG both won one MSL in BW and were relevant enough in Sc2, but they never exactly were at the top. | ||

They never even got to the finals, let alone won, anything of importance, like Blizzcon, code S and WCS. Edit: Oh, I am slow when I want to fact check my memory. People got there messages there before me. | ||
