Well, Lomo has better control, but Kouros plays better.

One of the smart things about Kouros is he plays a style suitable for his apm speed. A lot of players see pros do X or Y and try to copy it, not realizing that some strategies require a great deal of speed (proper SK Terran really is one of them). If you'se seen his recent replay against magma[s.g], he took the macro war to the Zerg by using an army of tanks that he spread well and then basically running the Zerg dry. He made just enough vessels to guarantee support against defilers. He used his mnm in an almost secondary way, rather than being an all-around-the-map-busy-body like we with guys like NaDa and In_Dove who have the apm speed to pull it off. It was truly remarkable to watch.

He's not pro. Just really good.




Yo FA: if you think his TvP is gay, check out Ever)T(Piano. Piano is most gay player in the history of SC me thinks.^_^
Even though this Proleague bullshit has been completely bogus, I really, really, really do not see how Khan can lose this. I swear I will kill myself if they do. - nesix before KHAN lost to eNature

Than you are hard to impress or you read in to a single rep far to much. kouros is no doubt amazing, especially tvz. Seeing him get raped in a game by a professional zerg is really not something to base a wide spread opinion off of.

He tears JoPD up, he wins almost all his CW matches for ekasa and other leagues, he has tons of reps on yg. and various other sites. He is a force to be reckoned with.

Orion isn't pro, he's a practice member of CJ.

Lol, forgot about piano for a second, ok second gayest TvP.

off topic: if you r ready to come back and be respectful of admin and tl policy, fine, but i think it is lame to nest a thorn of your personal agenda on an already closed topic w/in this otherwise legitmate thread.

uh..
he is very good, but as said he is slightly inconsistant and can have bad games. either you got 3 of them somehow or you're clueless.

Piano is the only player I've ever seen who was successfully both boring and interesting to watch at the same time. He plays a boring turtle style, but in a weird and intriguing way.
