Dude why are people hating on Kwanro? Light played like GARBAGE that game. You could see a mile away that Kwanro got gas before pool. That means speedlings and fastest possible Lair at the SAME TIME. Light didn't even get his Bunker up in spite of scouting and failed to block his entrance even though he had every opportunity to do so.

We've seen Zero and Hyun beat Flash on this map with Mutas - that's because it's really easy to harass both bases with fast Mutas and Kwanro's build is basically getting fast Mutas and fast Lings and putting the pressure on Terran to adjust their build. Why? Because you HAVE TO get Turrets up in time to defend Mutas on this map. Flash misclicked his natural mineral line Turret and that mistake alone cost him any chance of competing (you can't miss that Turret because you'll never get it up once Mutas come ... but if you get up it's not really killable because it's so easy to mass repair) - that means Terran can't miss their timings AT ALL and adding super fast speedling pressure is a great way to try to cause Terran to miss.

Kwanro only massed Lings after he got into Light's base. I mean at that point you're in his base of course you're going to just make 12 lings at a time and run in - it's not like Kwanro couldn't have just pulled back and gotten Mutas before Light had any chance in hell of getting Stim and Turrets up.

How can someone get so far in SLs with such an all-in gamestyle as Kwanro. It blows my mind.
Idra give us your imput pls.


The same way as OctoberZerg

No, there has to be more sophisticated reason behind it. Maybe he has decent enough a normal game to gain him an edge when people take extra measures against his cheese blindfolded, and he just cheeses when they dont. But how does he know? Can it be luck after all this? Is the current macro-oriented metagames fail to cheese so much? Or is zerg is just THAT imba with its cheesy allins?


Zerg is pretty bullshit with their all-ins. There are just so many flavours, and if you take precautions against all of them, and Zerg plays standard, you are bound to be behind.

There's:

4-pool
5-pool
6-pool
speedling run-by
mass speedling
hydra all-in
(2-hatch muta) <-- not really "all-in", but still pretty gay

OctZerg is someone who did well in the TSL-iccup prelim round. Supposedly, he all-ins a lot, just like kwanro


He is the Archrival of Idra, he is YellOw to Idra, always getting second place, their rivalry has been known since the begining of StarCraft progaming. Creativeness vs Solid play. Many people love him, many people will root for him, but everybody will bet his money on Idra. It's the foreigner LimJinRok - GregBojanRok

Oh, man. Flash and Kwanro need to win their series. We need Flash vs Kwanro (finals or semis, I don't know). The bitter Kwanro haters will shit their pants.

"What? Ling runby? NOOB!"
"What? Two hatch muta? IS THAT ALL YOU CAN DO?"
"What? Turtle zerg into ultra-ling-defiler? LAME!"
