Yeah, I forgot about that hero thing. Fixed now 
Unfortunately, I am at work. No Starcraft today for me 
Edit: MC lost, so there will be no match against herO.

And San got wrecked by Life too. Really good qualifier

Wow.. Solar delivers again.. I guess he really is the best zerg atm, overall soO is still better, but the last months.. Solar had really nice results. (including 3-0ing soO at dreamhack)

What don't you like about T?
With Z, I can't handle injects, creep spread and the larvae balancing. The mechanics of the race. (Still JD is my favourite player, I root for Z in most tournaments)

I wouldn't say I don't like it. I kinda feel it is "ordinary" race to play and I rather enjoy "exotic" races P and Z. That said, I think my TvX is still better than ZvX

this larvae shit drives me crazy! If I'm making drones, I'm not making any units, and vice-versa. + the constant injecting.

Go six pool! Seriously, it can be really tricky to learn using Larva and Queen mechanics effectively. Protoss and Terran are easier to handle in that field.

If you're scared, go full units. If you're not, go full drones. That should cover 90% of the cases you'll encouter. And injecting is easy if they're synced up (so it's not constant), and with time your mind learns to think "INJECT" every 40 or so ingame seconds

six pool never works for me. nine pool sometimes does. but not often. proxy hatch works quite well in bronze, since most people don't scout for in-base proxies... or any proxies for that matter. When I get Z on ladder, I cheese a lot. But I rarely play Random anyway

Wood league?
Let me make the following analogy: all my friends have girlfriends. And when they have any troubles they ask my advice. And every time my advice works perfectly. But I'm single, I've never had relationship longer than 6 months, and no girl can tolerate me this long.
Same here, in my head I have Bomber's macro, Parting's micro, etc., but when I start playing I become a retard

Imo, times of six pools are long gone. But there are some pleasant memories especially from start of the Wings of Liberty.

Well, this is a proof that he is not for nothing rated as one of the best korean players this year without even winning anything. He is really good, but ussually he loses to Zest.. Zest aka the SKT killer.
