Really zulu should put up or shut up. He claims that his criticisms are constructive, but all of his posts just give the impression that he's only out to bash and nitpick digg/moletrap/klaz. Is zulu a good player? I don't know... from the way he talks about the game it certainly seems like he holds his own skills in high regard. Here's an idea... if you are a great player, play the damn game. If you don't like diggity's commentaries, stop watching them? They are not out to teach people starcraft strategy, they are out to make the matches more entertaining. Listen to the original korean commentators sometime. They get PAID to comment the televised games, and it's not like they are offering deep strategic insight. They are just excitedly shouting things and play-by-play most of the time. Diggity/klaz/moletrap do this as a hobby, yet you hold them to a higher standard.

Seriously, if you are THAT worried about people learning the wrong things and being cursed to a life of mediocre strategy and bad decision making, go pick a bone with blizzard's official strategy compendium or the prima official strategy guides. As far as "corrupting" new players, I'm sure that those two OFFICIAL references have a much greater impact. Go pick a bone with battlereports.com, because they've got literally thousands of reports with dubious strategic calls (made in hindsight too), and lots of people read them. Instead, you choose to pick a bone with 3 guys who do this for fun, as if you have something personal against them. Maybe you are jealous that they sound like they are having a good time in their videos? If you can do a better commentary, do one and shut your critics up. If you really care about not misleading new players, there are much bigger fish to fry. If you are a good player, just go back to playing the game. If you are none of those, then just stfu.

Zulu sounds like a fat, perfectionist nerd.

No offense.
