Sup TL... I'm bored -_- Waiting for GSL Finals to start.

I just realized I've been refreshing TL constantly for the last half hour, stalking, checking for any amazing new threads to entertain me. I figured it would be more entertaining to just make a blog post... since maybe there are others like me who have been doing the same thing lol?

Gunna post any thoughts that come into my head.

#1 Really looking forward to these GSL finals. I've been REALLY impressed by Fruitseller's Zerg play.

And for me that's saying something. These days I find myself disagreeing with the play-styles of 90% of pro Zerg players. It's not that I think they're bad. I'm just an average 1200 Diamond Zerg.

Just the openings and unit compositions they choose really conflict with me. I'm talking about mostly ZvT - my favorite matchup. I don't want to get too much into it...

But so far Fruitseller has played his ZvTs almost perfectly in my eyes... he's even gone above and beyond my 'ideal' play-style for the matchup. Transfusing his Mutas in the middle of the map holy shit!

I have more thoughts but it's 1 Hour till GSL so I'm just gunna post and maybe add more thoughts later : /

I'm not too familiar with "riddick movie" I assume you're talking about chronicles of Riddick? Convince me to watch it in 10 words. Go.

Also, what's "Archer" ?

I'm waiting too. Just scarfed down "breakfast" from mcdonalds (it's 4:28 am here). Running experiments, writing a paper, and waiting for GSL.

I have no idea who is going to win. Both players have played stupendously throughout the tournament, can't wait to see how it plays out.

Also, thought #2

I've been real disappointed with my Zerg play on ladder recently.

I have a huge problem with focus. I'll constantly make stupid mistakes like

forget @100 gas to get lingspeed + pull 2 drones off gas.
forget to build overlords and get supply blocked. Sometimes as early as 27/27!

Other than that, I feel my mediocre mechanics are the next biggest thing halting my skill-growth. My APM starts around 80 and gets to 110 towards the lategame. My army control and multitasking are shit.

These things could probably be improved by mass-gaming. But I lack the motivation to do this.

O_O Usually I don't find players on ICCup TV that impress me unless its a particular event like the ITL.

But CatZ is playing right now on the stream, and even though i don't agree with his play 100%... it's still super interesting!

Thanks.
