I wonder if someone will play 300 games to win the jackpot or will one of the LeGenD] players take it again! GLHF c(:

Recruiting real players that are interested in a new playstyle!

Very cool discussion!

I think my brother told me that the Europeans created Fastest Map after the Koreans dominated the Low Money scene with no answers to their strategies and kept it a secret from them until they were ready to run it without being crashed onto by the Korean pros.

Unfortunately the Koreans have taken over now by your responses

Slow down idiot, I wasn't even near good and you learned watching me play when we were younger.

Get better before you go BMing for no reason.

I remember SilenT. And xS. being on top back when I first moved over to USWest.

It was KoKaNee + koN and ChangDaWei + Jake going hard with Sc.T + Gangster and DefJam huddling around the top 10. Sky[VcK] was a noticable name and I believe I saw LovelyRabbit play as well before I quit.

Sexy-sileNce was winning almost every 2vs2 season but I think he was apart of the SilenT. team then as it was all S a decade ago.

I know I'm better that's all 🤷‍♂️

Shut up, you didn't even do or say anything back then. Nobody knows you as you only copied other players style, I'm here to change that for your garbage ass.

Yo, you better stop with your arrogant ass cause you were the worst out of the five. You only sat there watching me, David, Allen and Jessica play each other most of the time.

You're embarrassing the Eastside with your 11% winrate right now.. LMAO 😂

How about you come back on the game and run a Bo3?? I'll shit on you all day as you only knew how to play Protoss. LMAO
Zerg trash
Terran no micro skills
😂

I'm new to Brood War so I'm fixing my own build and strategy, the 200+ APM is not here yet but I plan on turning it up once I have my macro down c(:

I was the best (R) player, the fuck you mean I was the worst? I(r)is - G(r)eed - Monster(R) - fea(R) were all shit. You only looked good playing inhouse games noob.

Jessica dumped you cause you were an absolute trash of a human and player. 😂

Fastest meta changed a lot. For years Kokanee was the number 1 player until LovelyRabbit came over and they shared the top 1 spot on original, with uplus right behind them. This was during UGL. Rabbit introduced different build orders and playstyles.

When UGL ended and SCW started and everyone switched to BW and more koreans showed up. The best few korean streamers came over and they for a lack of better wording completely destroyed SCW at the time. Inbusjaja aka GangNamLife, LovelyRabbit(medium streamer), HankookBBalmu aka Shin(big streamer), Brain(big streamer). They played such a different style with way more focus on aggression and micro that everyone started to adapt build orders a bit and playstyles.

GoldSCV(whiteandblack) showed up in like SCW 6 but had trouble adjusting to the map at first. JH(uplus) also returned around that time and they shared the top 3 ranks with Kokanee, but Goldscv and JH were without question better. GoldSCV and JH kept developing and outgrew Kokanee in a couple seasons. Thanks, a korean low money player showed up and had some very dominant hyper aggressive mico focused seasons. His late game was also crazy good. He quit for a while and never got back into shape. Then Scan, a professional korean played a couple seasons and immediately competed at the top of SCW with extremely good micro focused play. Around this time Byul also started playing SCW and JH played his last season. GOldscv renamed to WhiteandBlack and kept getting better.

Hydra also returned and got knocked around pretty badly by JH, Scan, WhiteandBlack and Byul until he was the first to really adapt to the Korean playstyle that until then nobody had adjusted to. Since then Hydra's been without question the best non-korean player. But because koreans play A LOT on korean server vs extremely good players they get way more practice in against the best players in the world. Like if you had to Rank Hydra including the Koreans from the Korean server he'd rank somewhere in in the top 20-25 in early game but top 15 in late game.

If you had to make an all time best list including koreans from the korean server the list would be something like:
Brain > Gensay > Burgersasu > LuckyBack > 458!!!(protoss) > Byul > Shin > Mong(professional) > Flash(professional) > Light(professional) > WhiteandBlack > Mepo > GangNamLife > LovelyRabbit > JH > Scan(professional) > Dorom > Henessy > Levi > Question > By_Zone > SH > Bame >Trisha > Niture > BomBi >By_Cong > Hydra.

Check out the game by DeD_ Gensay and LovelyRabbit here. They are the best 2vs2 team to play SCW ever. DeD_GoM and DeD_Dorom without a doubt second best team. After that I'd say Hydra+Evil or Hyda+Gohan are the best, but there is a gap.

How good was Flash at his best?

I have seen a lot of ways to do this but what's your favorite?  I am starting to like using valks more and more. I realized valks can be better because it prevents the toss from getting psi back to make more units because they are soaking it all up. If you kill the cars with wraiths then psi is opened up.  Lock downs are nice too for that same reason.

Whats your thoughts?

It's like the perfect time to build Wraiths and Valkyries along with a huge tank drop.

Turret the fuck up so you can hold.

Is Kush[FuN] Ku)S(h?
I remember MoS from those days running your tag!

HasH and KeLeVRaN was doing well for MaFia. Cheese was on and off.
HaRDy was the only one doing well on Pro] as Marine and DefJam was not able to play fast enough early game.

Sh)i(ne is the current best player on this league but I don't remember him winning many seasons back when.
