Lol, no. 95% of Terrans over platinum level would have stopped that nydus regardless of dropping or not. Still not sure how he missed it


you seem very mad my dear friend, calm yourself a little bit


I don't think he could of killed that Nydus anyway, since the tank didn't pop until just after the speedlings were coming out.

SCV's > nydus


This. 5 SCVs can kill a Nydus worm, no joke.

He was just completely distracted - off his game.

thank you rainbow, for making zerg look good.


For me it's like when someone does play as bad as HopeTorture the other player looks like a God when he beats him. And funny thing is that Zerg's random (hidden) expansions and Nydus in a base is such a cheesy and gimmicky play. C'mon, you gotta admit that.


it wasn't random. If he expo'd ANYWHERE else he knew he can't hold tank drop. Forcing the terran to try and drop at the small gold ledge and then have roaches on one side, crawlers on the other ITR did exactly what cool wanted him to do.

I play people in Diamond all the time who would have seen that Nydus worm warping in and killed it with SCV's... if not the Marines that were RIGHT there...

... how does someone like ITR not see that on his mini?

HopeTorture wins 4-3 He gives FruitDealer the hope of getting 4-0 and then tortures him by crushing him 4-3 ^^

That tank was already waiting there along with some marines. He would have been able to kill had he not been busy with his tank up the cliff.

It's funny, because everyone said that ITR would just be on a whole different level than Fruit dealers semi-final opponent. But what they didn't see is that cheesy play will always lose to a better player. Dropping a tank on a cliff didn't work in BW. It wasn't harass, it was just exploiting bad players. It isn't on the level of a shuttle that fires scarabs. When compared to someone who actually knows how to play, everyone seems terrible. ITR thought he could cheese his way to a 1st place, he was wrong.

Terran players are going to have to actually learn how to play now, since everyone and their mother is going to switch to zerg and just copy everything they see Fruit Dealer do.

I don't understand how ITR is so ridiculously aggressive vs protoss but lets zerg do whatever he wants except for some mediocre drops that he's not even executing properly. (except for cool's kulas ravine defense... that was amazing)

I am actually thinking Rainbow sold his match, if the stadium is packed then there may be big amount of money in bets.



Well if he wins it's 50k (above the 2nd place prize), assuming he thought he had the advantage, and seeing the map list he must have thuoght so, even without that info...

someone would have had to have buoght him off with 30k ish .... or the promise at shot at a lot more...


I'm not sure how much betting there is around sc2... just guessing, but I don't know that betting houses would take big bets, I just knwo that I wouldn't as it is so hard to really understand what is happening here and set proper odds. Again I could be totally wrong. I guess there is prob somewhere that would, there almost always is someone...

just seems really harsh to say, just because someone is having a bad day...

ITR seems so shook right now. Can't blame him but it is a shame, I do like him. Cool is just playing so amazingly right now - defending soooo well everytime.
Everyone needs a nemesis.

Trolling. You have to be trolling.


Disagree with someone so the must be trolling. No I find this series exciting as hell, a lot of people were pulling for Cool but not many expected him to win, especially not to win in such a dominating fashion.

To see Cool play like this and completely take advantage of ITR's cowardly play is very very exciting to me.

Funny thing is that excitement is a perception thing, so I can understand if you disagree, but it doesn't have to mean I am trolling.


So that makes it a good series? If you watched these games in a month or so, you'd get bored after the second game, especially with how RainBOw is playing. These games are fucking terrible and not at all an example of what SC2 could be.



I never said it was a good series, just that it was a very exciting one. As for the rest of your post, that's just your opinion, bro.
Yeah

This isn't mama's basement ladder.. it's a huge finals a move like that catches anyone off guard.


THIS. THANK YOU. Another critical thinker thinking outside of "X is beating Y!...Y is BAD." (seriously these are the same people that make those "was that 100/100 worth of resources sacrifice worth the 50/0 he lost?" (just an example)" without thinking of positional, tactical, and psychological advantage."

ITR is playing worse than normal, this is true, but it's for a fricken' reason, and Cool is obviously better at handling the situation. Cool deserves the money he's going to earn in this final unless ITR can recollect himself mentally.

It was all a ploy to change the public opinion of Zerg so that Blizzard doesn't patch further. ITR taking one for the team!

Are your ladder opponents playing in elevated booths within a gymnasium packed with thousands of fans and cameras broadcasting the games across the world?
