Madfrog just got himself a bunch of fans with that attitude. What a champ. And TLO, beastly as always. So happy to see him succeed.

Very.

I don't have a way to pay for the stream until later tonight. So I'm going to use a HQ restream until tonight!
I enjoy watching more than playing.

What? He was doing his job, trying to make interesting conversation. Everyone and their mother was thinking it, he was just trying to get it out there.

Not saying that I think Madfrog should go on bitching and whining, but are you really going to fault the interviewer for bringing up questions that most probably had while watching that? He was just doing exactly what an interviewer should do - try to actually get some interesting conversation going in interviews.

With all the talk about Zerg being a reactionary race, Terran can actually adapt even faster than Z with hard counters once they have rax + fact + starport down.

I think it's a fair question to ask the zerg player especially with a lot of discussion right now about how T v Z is really imba.. Obviously though I can't see any pro gamer with the exception of maybe Idra using that forum to complain especially live on camera but we all know they are thinking it in their heads lol.

Hydra would have been a better choice, no?


No... As bad as mutas are v thor... hydras are even worse once the +1atk finishes for vehicles.

This.

Seriously though, whats up with all the imbalance talk and bitching about the interviewer instead of just talking about the tourney and game itself. You can create another imbalance thread after the tourney if you want it so bad...

Interesting conversation would be what he thinks he did wrong, or what he thinks he could have done better, or something else that is actually worth thinking and talking about.

You're really mad. Not everything revolves around whining about terran imbalance, despite what you think of it. The interviewer asks questions that'll trigger flame wars depending on the answers, he's pushing it quite a bit instead of asking more about the actual games.

Well the reason that MaDFroG waited with building his pool is that Zerg needs to make the exact right counter against what terran does, or you might as well leave the game straight away.

You'll always need a pool...


Except that if you have the room to expand early and you don't, all you're doing is willingly putting yourself behind.

He didn't expand, he just made a really late pool and got punished for it.


Quit being thick.

He waited to scout the T build before dropping the pool for the reasons in the post you quoted. Read it instead of just blindly stating the same thing you did before.


He waited so he could make the perfect counter? Well, that sure worked out for him.


Are you completely clueless?

He waited until he scouted because he has to. Zerg only has two options there, you're either 100% right or 100% wrong, so you HAVE to scout like that.

whats the point scouting if you die either way?


So what's the point of playing then?

Stop being an idiot.

u didn't understood my point

If you expand, you can get punished. If you go early pool you still can be punished. So you have to scout to see if T is going for early agression and prepare to counter that. But you still have delayed your pool and so even if T isn't going for early agression, he'll be macroing amry earlier than you.

I say is best to delay your scout and just throw your pool down coz its safier this way.
I'm nowhere near good, but I still have fun playing with my probes

How is the state of ZvT not worth talking about? It's causing a massive issue in the pro scene. It's obviously something worth talking about.
