Translation of the last part:

"Switches race to Protoss
He has now got a new goal. Switching race to Protoss and achieving top 50 grandmaster on the ladder within a month. Otherwise he will switch back to Terran.
- Protoss suits my playstyle better, I think. The game gets more enjoyable as well since everything is new. I will also have an advantage against Terrans, if I become good."


He seems pretty serious, who knows.

Information is everything

I love it. I look forward to him realizing it's a hell of a lot less than faceroll.
Refer to my post.

He started out as P during beta, didn't achieve anything until he switced to T. He could probably be as good with P as he is with T, but top 50 GM in one month might be a bit to hard.

SjoW will be using the Oracle the way he used the Banshee.

Cool! I'm interested to see what he can do.
All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

I liked his Terran! But what can I say, Protoss matches everyone's style.

RTS skills are pretty universal regardless of the race. I believe he can get top 50 gm with zerg if he wanted too.

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.
