With so many drops in g1 I wouldn't be surprised if he made a second just to be ok in case it was killed. Its only 150 mins isn't it?

I do feel like he got it a little early though

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.


The debate might rage on for weeks about whether or not these games were better than TLOs match, but that was easily the best series.

Would everyone stop trying to play down Cool's win and enjoy the fact that we all just saw what might turn out to be the most memorable game of GSL Season 1?



The terran played like a buffoon, crippling zerg then doing nothing but make thors, then get smashed by a zerg hat has 2x the economy and unlimited ultras, which his first wave already could wipe out the entire map.

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.


What Broodlords? There was none!

I don't understand where these people are coming from saying "Top is a terrible terran" and that they could have done better. You prepare for these games with practice partners, and you do builds that you are solid with. Top's heavy mech build is very strong against mutas, something that Cool is known for. Look at the second game on lost temple. Top's practice partners probably have never done something like Cool's crazy "mass expand and rush to ultras".

When you are terran and you hold a commanding position against zerg, it takes a pro zerg to realize he might just be able to expand against you. Most zergs would have fallen under the pressure and tried to timing attack all-in to get back on even ground. That's where the double expand strat works.

Best series of SC2 so far. Most impressive multi-tasking by Cool. Actually using so many aspects of Zerg. Really incredible using so many different tactics. More tactics used than T/P ever have to worry about simultaneously.

Better than TLO's easily. Oh my god you nubs. Both these players were higher level than both those players. And this was a imbalanced matchup with the underdog pulling out a win.

Modded for saying this or not, he would not have won that against any other terran.

TOP messed up so hard that it almost looked fake.

I disagree. Thors will rape ultras easily. Especially with cannons.


Really? ur seriously clueless. :D


God job COOL!


Not really, Top had enough thors to stun ALL ultras, but I guess he didn't have enough time or didn't have the upgrade.


The stun doesn't work on Ultras, dude.

Ultralisks are immune to 250mm cannons.

That change was months ago.


No. They are immune to the stun from the attack. They still take the 500 dmg up the ass from the attack.

They take 499 dmg, leaving the Ultra at 1 hp. There's a 2sec startup and 2sec cooldown after the attack. Even if he had 250MMd 6 different ulras, he wouldn't have killed any. At best they'd be at 1hp, he couldn't finish them off.

Cool, thank you so much for giving us these fantastic Zerg games. It's so great to see a Zerg fighting hard and making it to the round of 8 like this. I'm genuinely rooting for Cool to take it all at this point, just because I feel Zerg deserves such an epic moment.

Yeah. If we're talking one game (aka set by the gomtv terminology), the TLO comeback might be it, but that was definitely better as a series (aka match).

MIND BLOWN

ogs.TOP beat himself cool picked up the rest. He basically threw the game away after doing sooo much dmg to the zerg. and he didnt even abused the cliffs once.. Dunno what he was thinking I guess he kinda lost his nerves.

Top played bad today , but the dude got sick skills. This is R16 and so far everybody is extremely nervous. Nobody here is Flash or Jaedong. This is not normal for them. I remember in BW a dude was so nervous that he put the phones backwards and the korean commentators almost die of laughter.

Cool won on Kulas Ravine 0.0

Fruitdealer dealing out deadly, poisonous fruit with annoying seeds inside and shoving it down Top's throat XD!

Gawd - Cool just played SO WELL! I was blown away!

I think that it might have been a different game if Top stuck with a single expand and harassed instead of going passive and double expanding. That time of passivity from Top allowed Cool to rocket ahead and actually gain such an advantage on Kulas Ravine....that was incredible from Cool!

I didn't want to hope for a big macro battle on Kulas, but I'm so glad we got it! WHOOOO! Cool Zerg hero! ^_______^

I think it was more of fruitdealer eating some survivability fruit then dealing deadly fruit. He hold to that game, crazy!

He had a greater spire.

He just didn't need broods since 8 ultras just raped 20 thors.

I am very happy that Cool won ... but seriously? Best Series? He just stalled with some nice tactics and then a-moved ultralisks. I'm not impressed by that at all.

LOL at all the noobs in this thread calling ogsTop a terrible player. Even pro players make mistakes some times, you've never played a game, lost and then watched the replay and smacked your forehead and thought "OMG why didn't I just attack".
