Don't Judge a BGHers by its Stats

The one guy from the away team with a stats of thousands wins and hundred loses left the game immediately when another two guys (stats of 7-11-1 and 23-20-2) joined in with him. This guy left because he see chances of winning is little when his "blink" told him that those two were noobs... and the home team are experts. Yeah, probably true, but not in all cases.

Here are two interesting replays from LosersAreUs with some random guys and GosuDrop beating the hell out of the Marlboro "A" teams.

1st Replay (3on3)
akao87 (7734-1037-1022), YaO_MiNG (4606-1126-380) , rAzAgAl)A( (3791-713-173)
VS
ApoxOnYou (97-803-22), JamesBond_007 (76-62-19), LosersAreUs (272-234-3)

3 Marlborians who have a combined 20000 games vs 3 random noobs in stats. The odds are 10:1... yeah, superficially.

2nd Replay (1on1)
marlb0r0 (3508-973-275) <--- he is the icon of Marlboro US WEST
VS
GosuDrop (60-60-6) <--- unknown guy with noobie stats.

GosuDrop told me in the email that his opponent marlb0r0 said
"son, you need more carriers"... eventually the guy GosuDrop already reached the max of 200 units, how did he get more carriers?

Perhaps, the next time when you are in an away team, don't get pissed off with partners that do not have impressive stats. Probably you will meet someone like GosuDrop and LosersAreUs who can turn around the table easily. Stats werent everything but of course, it give the first impression of who you are. But sometimes impression could betray you... because even good profile BGHers are just another amateur.

    Probably grumel didn't see GosuDrop dropping 4 High Templars in 2 attempts and killed 20-30 of marlb0r0 probes... don't he (grumel) noticed that? That was done quite early in the game. Though that was not executed perfectly, but it really buy GosuDrop a lot of advantages... so that he could reach 200max easily.

    I agree with Genie) somehow. Most of the time when the group of carriers (like 10) flew out, everyone just quit and already started saying gg.

    Going carriers is not GOSU, because carriers take time... and probably you wouldnt have enuf time to build it against really good player. However, once the carriers are ready, everyone just say GG.

    Carriers are consider one of the dealiest weapon, but of course, hitting them with plague, EMP, scourges, storm, and statis weaken them. But honestly, when is the last time you have executed that perfectly.

    The one who is really good will go Carriers with Zealots and some dt (economically good and required less APM).

    Err, are you talking about the guy marlb0r0 (with 2zero, not 2o), or the marlboro channel BGHers?
