In TOP's position early-game, I could've won against Cool, what a noob-Terran.

Cool is so much better!

Getting raped by 15 ultras popping together surely gets on your mind, and surely that played in favor of TOP being as passive as he was.

Man i love Cool so much i wanna take him behind a middle school and get him pregnant.

Cool says the 90 drones in game 1 was a mistake, he normally maxes out at 70 drones.

did ogstop get paid to throw the game away on the third match?

What kind of terran afks for 15 mins, makes mass thors and gets outmatched 30 mins later when he decides to use 20 thors vs broodlords/ultras.

Although I believe Cool deserves to win, I still think the Ultra bug is ridiculous. I hope Blizzard comes with a hotfix.


After this game, I think they just might This is exactly why I had mixed feelings about patching the game between round in the GSL.

Weird that ZvT transformed seemingly over night though, muta/ling/bling/infestor to stall-to-ultras

... Thats been how ZvT is played for over a month? -.-


exactly - the funny thing is, zerg just rarely get to the point of mass-ultras because they just die

in this game, if top has attacked earlier, cool wouldn't have had any ultras at all; top just got so scared because of the constant drops, he really tasted the medicine that normally terran hands out there....if you get the advantage you don't have to be afraid to deliver a killing blow even if there "might" be drops

Incredible games from both players, congratulations to Cool for outplaying Top.

I'm very interested to see how that splash damage effects surrounding units as that first thor push got absolutely demolished and it looked like the splash damage was compounding.

*shrug*

Excellent play from both players, and good to see a Zerg make it to the top 8.

wow how bad was that terran?? how the hell did he even get to ro16? Going for hellion/banshee harass, doing tons of dmg and then just doing NOTHING for 20 mins until z is on 5 bases and 100 ultras? Really really horrible Terran, he could have done anything and won on kulas after that opening, instead he sits back and waits for a 200/200 thor only army.. lol T_T

As good as Cool played and as much as he deserved to win that, TOPs strategies were kinda wierd and he was extraordinarily passive after harassing when he had the game wrapped up, and of course he never made marauders at all, so it was kind of disappointing to watch that game :/


A game without marauders is certainly not a disappointing one.

+rep to Top for not making one.

Haha, yeah, what I meant was I wanted to see TOP play better to make it more interesting.

Thors now actually beat an Ultralisk in a 1v1 fight (wierd I know), but they get demolished in groups because of splash. Marauders would've meant the need for lings and/or infestors, which would've been cool(er).

Haven't you seen TLO's game last round? Check that out and you'll change your mind!

But tbh, this one one of the best matches easily.

Fair enough. But you still have to admit that the positioning on the initial attack sucked for Terran. He got 100% surrounded and splashed from all sides. After that he managed to hang in there but the damage was too great.

The initial defense by Cool was pure beauty.


Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I was rooting for Cool, but Top kinda threw away this match by idling for 15 minutes and then getting his 200/200 army slaughtered.


I agree with this. Top had it won early on, but it's likely he just didn't know it.

It can be easy to condemn players from on high as a spectator where you can see everything. Top likely didn't realize how big his advantage was.
