Wow.
If fOrGG transitions, I think he will be arguably the best and most accomplished ex-broodwar player in SC2. To give some background to those not familiar in the BW scene, fOrGG won an MSL against Jaedong 3-0, considered to be the best zerg brood-war player bar-non (though on some pretty bullshit maps). Otherwise, he played solidly in proleague on Hwaseung Oz but when he transitioned to KT, his play severely declined until he recently retired. NaDa? BoxeR? Julyzerg? ;;. fOrGG is my second favourite Terran player ever, behind NaDa/Midas tie, but he's definately not the most accomplished ex-bw player to transition to SC2. Although his MSL win was quite impressive, with wins over iloveoov, kal, flash, and Jaedong. I'm speaking skill-level wise relative to today. If fOrGG were to play nada, boxer, july, etc, etc right before retirement he would have steam rolled through them, no question about it. In fact, if you were to see fOrGG vs MC or Bomber in the brood war days in a best of X, I'm quite confident it would be pure rape-age.
You should probably edit your first post accordingly, as it's going to derail the thread because many people have already misunderstood it.

FORGG!

Oh god please let this be true.
SHIT!
as soon as he starts competing in tournaments i'm making him a fanclub.
I would join that club INSTANTLY
|
Aaaaaah sick. Hope to see more from him then.
|
I COULDNT CLICK THIS LINK FAST ENOUGH
i hope its true - forgg is so fun to watch
and hes playing a game where timing pushes can easily win games?
hahah, time to shine forgg
|
.....I want to believe it, but I can't until he comes public with the transition but omg....wowowowoowowowowowowowowowow!
|
prob huk trolling you guys lol
|
yea not sure if this is suppose to be public, if it isnt im really really sorry forgg TT;
edit: also the game isnt that good, we have played a lot im sure tl has a lot of replays of me vs him.
before my code s up/down matches (the day before) i beat him and he bmd me by saying "your code s bye bye" or some shit
and we actually had a nice run of manner muleing/dancing to each other in games for awhile as well.
|
He should go pro. I'd love to see him play again. Kid was really good in his prime, going 6-1 against Flash and JD to win the MSL.
Do it Forgg, do it!
|
I wonder if he'll try out for Code A the next time the qualifiers come around. :O That would be pretty awesome
|
Sweet if its true and even sweeter if he's gonna compete!!

Since when does "Most Accomplished" mean "At the current moment in the best shape." He would be far, far from the most accomplished ex-BW.
|
Ya, he's far from the most accomplished BW player to switch (if it really is him and all), but he's definitely the one with the highest skill level in absolute terms.
|
Omg i hope TSL/IM/ST recruit this MONSTER !

nestea should leave IM so that forgg,yellow and nestea can form a new team under KT's sponsorship.

Is there any possible chance that he goes to Blizzcon? He's really high ranked on KR GM.
|
Looking forward to see if he goes pro, it would be awesome to see how he achieves. Especially since a lot of guys have been arguing weather ex-BW top BW players would be able to compete. :')
