Why do you do that? Is it reverse psychology? Do you maybe really NOT want it fixed? what?
rabe's post seemed pretty straight-forward
of course, many people have never encountered an adequate rendition of this strategy...
Anyways, the problem is certainly not Norfleet; which is not to say that Norfleet doesn't have problems...
he did invent the pure strat as far as i can tell, and he is also very experienced w/ it, which does make it seem stronger than it otherwise might be. However, stronger than way too strong...
for instance, reading the supposed "counters" in the counter thread mostly make me laugh as, for the most part, they would be pretty useless, or require vast amounts of resources compared to the reward, when used against someone who has mastered this strat - for instance, Norfleet.
