I'd play TvZ. Especially if you have to play laggers. Otherwise though...ZvZ will probably keep your control at a very high level if you plan on remaining competetive after leaving Korea.

I say you focus on ZvZ until Courage is over regardless of future plans in or out of Korea, simply because you're there and that is an opportunity that is unique for you. You can always win TSL3 later.

What good is a 1/256 chance on a progaming license when you're leaving the country? He should just play whatever gives him the best chance at winning TSL.

ret is still in korea. apparently he has enough reason to go for another courage. why shouldnt that also be enough to stick with zvz, or has his stay in korea nothing to do with starcraft at all?

if you go with t, your time in korea will have been for nothing. if you go with t and lose you will ask yourself why you didnt stick with z and blame yourself. if you go with t, you let the desire for money dictate your life. if you go with t you prove nothing other than that you have given up. thinking about going with tvz is doubting yourself, its the opposite of confidence and creates a win-win situation for castro, showing him that regardless of what your choice will be he is going to face you in a matchup that you didnt prepare the best you could, game-wise and mentally.

dont give yourself up just because not everything went as it could have with estro. after considering everything, play what you are most comfortable with, not only during the game but after it. you are still ret, but who this ret is is determined by every decision you make. who are you, ret?

good luck.

It's a serious topic for him, one'd think you could take something as serious as TSL seriousl-oh wait NEVERMIND, Hi Testie!
and testie made a serious post. a good post on top of that. its no insult, its not off-topic, its spot on. your post on the other hand contained:
insult

and thats it, effectively reducing it to spam. if i were a mod youd been at least warned for that. try to use arguments to back your opposing opinion up next time. or dont act to high and mighty because of it.

ZvZ is a luckfest
sarcasm much?

its just more demanding than other matchups when it comes to following your opponent closely (how many drones and zerglings he makes, when spire starts) and having good micro to defend the bo you went with or abuse the speed of your units. its very challenging, but this is starcraft and not poker. luck never decides a starcraft game.

You're hella annoying.

...ZvZ imo.

I don't like watching ZvZ, but somehow ZvZing feels more "right" to me.

I voted T, certainly for TSL
Since TSL is the biggest foreigner tournament ever, go with TvZ if you feel it will maximise your chances.
You can worry about ZvZ after, when $10k isn't on the line

ZvZ, definately. Keep improving your ZvZ and your ZvT and ZvP will benefit as well.

When's the last time you played TvZ ret (regularly)? I remember seeing your matchlist on Bean and most games were ZvZ's. I would still say ZvZ though :p

if you already know that, then what wrote before is just plain stupid lol. he's leaving korea, the courage is worth nothing more than pride. the TSL is worth 10 grand

im glad that you know what i mean. so your pride isnt worth 10k? its obviously about pride and thats what i said in my first post - it depends on who you are (who ret is).
