Destiny hasn't been top 200 since the launch of SC2... Who told you that o_O He made it into Grand Masters which is the top 200 of NA? Umm, GM hasn't existed since the launch of sc2....

Yeah, he only made grandmaster like 1-2 months ago.
As much as I love watching his humours antics on his stream, I feel he's severely overhyped by his die hard fans...

The same thing that happened to San will happen to HongUn and would happen to Rain too if he stayed.
And yeah, the only thing that Destiny can do is to mass infestors and 1a. Oh wait. Infestors can't attack. Wow, how does Destiny win games?
Anyway, I'm hoping for good games. Destiny has a weird vT that lacks mutas and banelings, yet he still can win against very good players (I saw him winning against Major with that, I was thinking that this was just a random fun build, but he uses this style more than just once in a while. And he wins games). Whoever wins, I think the games will be very good.

When did Rain get bad? I vote Rain.

Nice! Too bad we won't be able to see this awesome build since Rain is a terran! derp.

I hope you're trolling. I really do.

Neither player has enjoyed all that much success of late so it will be very interesting to see where they stand (especially considering Destiny's weird style). Destiny is going to be at MLG right? Can't wait for that either.

This is awesome Destinys ling \ festor build is probably the most fun to watch of all the builds out there!

Did you just call the guy who made RO4, beating guys like MC in the process, a gimmick? Hongun even has really bad wrist problems so he couldn't get to train as much as he wanted. Wanna elaborate on what it is exactly that makes him gimmicky?
I'm not sure if you are serious with the 1a thing either, since I made no such point... Troll post?

Destiny isn't in this one: http://us.battle.net/sc2/en/blog/2452056#blog
So he hasn't been in the top 200 since release, about 2 weeks before the Grandmasters was added he was.

Destiny is a decent player no doubt abt it. But here is the thing, koreans are not used to playing against players who use mass infestors (Thats what took bomber by surprise).
In my opinion, mass infestors are as bronze league as mass void rays. You only need to be careful while casting fungal or neuro.
|
I'm going to say destiny will win this one. But Rain definitely isn't a bad player. but i don't feel he will be able to cope against the infestors of detiny.

thats why he has 100% win on ladder, oh wait.
all the destiny steam fan bois claim his builds are unbeatable, not just once but i mean consistantly. every time destiny is in a cup or league he has some new build which they are proclaiming is unbeatable.
he beat 1 korean because the guy didnt just attack after getting ahead, and he is like 100th on US gm ladder? so hes in the top 1000 in the world, maybe.
rain 'should' stomp him if you take a realistic appraoch but at the same time anything can happen.
|
I'm sure xeris will tell his new player about destiny going for infestor build only. Rain won't surprised i will be shocked if destiny win the series.
