One thing is for sure though, TLO knows how to put on a show!
+1.
Also zerg probable was seeing that a bit on the fly. Yes, people go fast helion, but not quite exactly like that. And he did so good responding.
All you guys are saying "he used tank vs roaches, so hows that imbalanced?"... Zerg didn't make light units BECAUSE of tanks. Use your brain people, zerg would have gone light if they would be any use.
Gotta give props to TLO for that one, you can tell he has been training hard for these matches. I'm glad to hear the foreigners are working together in this tournament(Idra/TLO practice).
Also on the topic of balance, besides leaving that out of this thread entirely cause thats not what this thread is here for. You have to keep in mind the Zerg let those hellions in the base. I personally think TLO outplayed him, and thats why he won. Not because "Terran is jussttttt OOOPPP"
I always wonder how the Koreans are reporting on say TLO/Idra and other foreigners, and what they said about the zerg there because he played amazing too ^^
Unfortunate two players of high caliber meets in a Ro64 match, but with that random bracketing for qualifiers you will get things like this. Hope to see way more of LosirA in the future. TLO played like a monster, micro'd like a fiend while macroing up that huge mech army.
First game was actually super close, I look forward to see that super aggressive style after tanks become a bit less punishing. It was just awesome to see an unorthodox zerg midgame, keep it at LosirA!
I was actually a lot more impressed by TLOs play in the second game, keeping him busy with those amazing drops ("oh banelings ... booom") while macroing up a mech army in the back was just great. But i was very impressed by Losira too he seemed to be easily among the best zerg that i have seen so far.

The only zerg that made it through is Idra. TLO probably won't be playing anymore zergs.
I think at least one other zerg made it through already, I'll have to look real quick. But yeah the chance of him running into another Zerg is very low.
