Okay. To be honest, you made a huge glaring mistake in this article.
Flash is NOT Kasparov.
Flash is...
+ Show Spoiler +DEEP BLUE!!!For so many obvious reasons. 1. Destroying the human BW scene, just like Deep Blue is destroying human chess. 2. They're actually related by blood... I mean by oil. 3. They are both the highest technologies that are focused to win a game. 4. MANDATORY MACHINE EYE TWITCH IMAGE DUH??? I DEMAND that Flash's profile be changed IMMEDIATELY
But in all seriousness, what a fantastic article!!!

I used to be a serious chess player back in elementary until I discovered broodwar. This post made my day. Excellent work.
|
....I literally just got an assignment to come pare one of my hobbies to another hobby..........this will help a lot.....I think i love you...
|
Incredible read. Thank you! Really great to see a cool comparison of past and present greats in BW and the time periods of dominance by certain players. As soon as I saw the spiked blue line in the BW graph from 2003-2005 it couldnt be anyone else but iloveoov. Great post!
|
Pretty awesome stuff.
I am a chess noob but I read this with interest ^^
|
Nice post!
I was wondering if you were gonna draw a comparison of Magnus Carlsen with someone, but I don't think there's any new talent in BW as stupendous as him.
also, LOL @ the comparison of Flash with Deep Blue
|
Awesome. I appreciate the work you put into this! Thanks!
|
So sick, I read the entire thing- totally worth it. Chess is definitely an interesting read.
|
outstanding read, love the comparisons.
|
This is SO cool. I know nothing about chess, but I love reading stuff about the competitive scene. It's really fascinating. The comparison to BW just made it that much better.
|
Checkmate! Amazing post. I assume that OP plays and studies chess (besides playing BW ofc)?
|
wow this post is so amazing already eventhough i have only read half of it
gotta go back to that later and finish the read.
epic job
