Actually, when I got matched up against Sen, my girlfriend watched every game of Sen she could and briefed me on two of his main habits (the idea to use marauder drops against banelings was another way she's helped me in the past).


How awesome is that?
Everything in life is most clearly explained through a Starcraft analogy.

I'm really hoping Cruncher can surprise us by giving Nani a fight.... but Nani's PvP is SOOOOO good, I don't think it will happen.

I don't know if I like Boxer being matched up against another Protoss. Especially because his next Code A match is a Terran, a GOOD one.

He's definitely been showing some signs of weakness against Protoss lately.Hopefully he doesn't focus too much on GSL and balances out his practice between the 2 tourneys

Boxer has his girlfriend background check his opponents while his teammates creates his builds. What a boss

I am a cruncher fan I think he's getting alot of undeserved hate just because he plays in a certain way.

You should add grades to the matches, it adds to the discussion in the thread. Also, love BoxeR's interview, so much manner, and it also shows a process of though and solution of a matchup that is very complex and exciting. The way boxer approaches a match is awesome!

This is the first time I actually agree with Idra. Cruncher is very overrated, and he almost always abuses the matchup to win. He hasn't shown anything that points to him being a great player. He has mediocre mechanics, not so great decision making and lackluster multitasking. All in all, a rather "average" player. I think Nani is in a different level, and is very likely to crush him.

Reading Boxer's interviews gave me nerd chills. I don't know he's just so inspiring and makes me want to be a better person. Even though I have never met him in real life, I just have so much respect for him that I want to stand up and salute my computer screen.

Kim Ga-yeon == SlayerSJessica.

Besides that.. eh yeah, can't help but gush over BoxeR's interview. Love the attitude, love the teamwork (yay Cella!). Sorry Hasu, but I really, really want to see him go far ><

Also NaNi should have that, but it is TSL3 of course..

As long as we keep our passion as progamers, we will always have an opportunity to meet again. On a purely personal note, I'd like to show him the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers.

Boxer is so awesome -- giving credit to basically everyone around him. I've just started following progaming, but it is obvious why this guy is such a damn legend.

I feel very stupid asking this, but I have the curiosity, so there it goes:

In this kind of online tournaments, how do you know that Boxer is the one playing and not MMA for example?

I'm sure there is an easy answer to this and that I may be looking like a total moron now, but what the hell.


There's no easy answer and it's plagued online tourneys forever. You can try to investigate it by looking at apm, hotkey and spamming patterns which are usually unique to the player and very distinct. In BW we had people who could look at a replay and pretty much always tell who the player was. Of course this isn't hard proof unfortunately, so it's always been a bit of a problem.


It's true, although in this case, BoxeR's play is so distinct and idiomatic, my mind would be blown if it was anyone but the Emperor playing those games against Sen. The "proxy" raxes, the way he forces the game into a scrappy low-econ state, the squads of hero marines everywhere... that's BoxeR through and through. It would take a lot of skill, practice, and familiarity to imitate his style successfully.

Totally hoping he makes it all the way.

Nani against MC on the finals is something I really want to see but man Boxer set against Sen was just AWESOME and Boxer seems to be improving so fast after being knocked to code A
