The Quotes of all Quotes!!! <3
Nony > Tyler
|
Tyler can chill to such a degree that it has materialized and taken the form of an S-class moderator, even pornstars aren't up to his level of mutlitasking.
|
Aww.. I barely watched any SC2, so I ONLY remember him for his BW accomplishments - I was actually under the impression he was doing well in SC2 since I saw his name mentioned quite a few different places. I still think he's gonna surprise everyone and utterly crush in TSL3 though.
|
Nony is always playing from the position of the underdog. I feel like TSL will bring out the best in him. Again.
|
Not a SC2 fan, but I'm watching TSL3 because I love TL. I'm hoping for a Nony repeat for sure!
|
|
Amazing write up, i can not agree more that his TSL 2 recognition was cut way to short. I do hope however that he comes back fighting i would love for him to be the first person to win it twice in a row. Tyler Fighting!

Nony is the bomb, and has been my favorite foreigner since back in the BW days.
I remember when he first went to Korea, cheering him on in that almost-Courage win, hearing about his marriage...and I remember the great TSL2 run and most of all that beautiful, beautiful Nony vs Idra series. The TSL2 thing was an amazing display of skill...and it is a shame that I don't think he's really been able to express his talents fully in SC2 so far (though he's still obviously a top player). But I have faith... for it has been this way before.
Cause as Idra learned in TSL, Nony with talent and very little practice is already a frightening thing...but Nony with talent AND practice is nigh unstoppable.
GO NONY!

Nony caught my attention during TSL1 and became my favorite player in TSL2, it's sad to see he hasn't won any big tournaments in SC2, but trust me, this year in the MLGs and NASL he'll tear stuff apart.

I really liked the last line "can [Tyler] become Nony again." I think that's a great way to illustrate then versus now.
As for the TSL hype videos, yeah the original TSL had the best one, but there's something about TSL3's that just makes me smile. TSL1's video is more adrenaline, but TSL3's is, well, chill. Even watching it now, once that TSL logo fades into place... oh man, it's a great feeling.

Hype! Go Tyler! We are all rooting for you!
|
nony is the true hype master. he is mother fuckin chill, and doesn't give a fuck. he plays for a bit, and comes back to win tsl 2. he's playing even less this time around to show that his ballerness has increased tenfold and he gives even a less of a fuck (if possible) than before. "Korean opponents this time? Psh plz, bitches. This is my tournament." (what I invision Nony thinking to himself)
nony for tsl 3 champion. you heard it here.
|
Great write-up. Really hoping Tyler can break through to the finals. <3
|
Great blog! Tyler is definitely my dark horse for hte bracket challenge and I'm even rooting for him over my beloved zergies
|
Oh and forgot to mention, your write-up is awesome - specifically your last line. NonY HWAITING.

same, i thought he was doing well in the sc2 scene. no idea he was slumping and struggling.
go nony!

This is a great write up for those of us that are really only familiar with the sc2 scene.
I think Nony is pretty much a beast from watching him play.
|
It's not so much that he's slumping as it is he just never kept pace with the current skill level of SC2 pros, so he hasn't accomplished anything to parallel his BW accomplishments. If he just sits down and fuckin practices hardcore I'm sure he'll have no problems this tournament season.

Yah, sadly SC2 storms will never be as awe-inspiring.
It'd be interesting to see how that 5 minute game panned out without the Esc key debacle. Also, NonY > Tyler for an ID. Just accept the correct English pronunciation.
