To be honest, even though i love every protoss, Alicia isn't that good. His macro is really really sloppy, he often floats +1k on many occasions.

Define "better", please. I said I consider them some of the most talented and I do. Alicia looked brilliant for a few months but I don't think he's ever going to shine. JYP and Puzzle both look promising but are not quite there yet. And MC is MC... His achievements are quite impressive but personally I have never been thrilled by his play. It has always been too risky.. too cheesy and all-inish. I still think that he will be back at the top in half a year or so.

Regardless, congrats to ToD. Tod is going to be way better than Nerchio in 6 months. Like it won't even be close after he's been in Korea...

Awesome news for him, best of luck!
|
Woot, more talent into the scene, go ToD!
|
Damn NightEnd/Rain/ToD. Fnatic looks really strong.

I chuckled a little when I remembered you're the head of the Idra fanclub.
Anyways I agree, to a ceartain extent. Naniwa and Sase are much better than Alicia. And I also remember ToD beating him at mlg, twice. But how can you guys forget the beast, ST_Ace?

You know, I'd always thought the head of the IdrA fanclub was Whole, but it turns out you're right ...

Probably a good move by both parts. Hopefully we can see more from him!

Great news to ToD, best of luck in Korea
|
Good stuff. ToD is pretty darn good. Send him to korea and let him get the needed exposure to become a legend in sc2.
