Anyone thinking that fruit dealer did the gold expansion so that ITR would scout it and then go for a drop? So that he could get a nydus off and overrun the base?


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


True, he probably could have killed off the nydus, but I think a lot of people here fail to understand how brilliant cool's play is.

First of all, he's done three completely different strategies in each game.

The significance of the gold expansion is that if ITR does NOT take it out, he loses.

Cool is too good of a player. You're not going to win against him if he gets +1 gold.

ITR went into that gold expansion thinking there was pretty much NO way he could lose it. Do you know what fruit did? he didn't move his overlord at all. Because he wanted hopetorture to keep occupied on it while the nydus went up. Yes he should of saw it, but it would of served exactly the same purpose either way. If he defends the gold, he wins. if he gets the nydus in, he wins.

Things cool has done that are non-standard:

Fake broodlords to force wasted vikings
total map control. Not a single drop has been successful.
Medivac snipe on LT and DQ.
Tank drop defense on LT
Tank drop defense on Kulas Ravine

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.

he didnt force anything. ITR had an easy win right there. Banshees or marauder/hellion push would been an easy win. The bases are so spread out and the fact that cool added 2 spine crawlers blindly would have made those pushes much stronger.

Jaedong made Flash look like a God in the most recent OSL finals, yet Jaedong is the 2nd best player in the world. When a good player gets an advantage over another good player, they just compound it until it looks like they're steamrolling.


Omg are you actually Comparing Flash and Jaedong to Cool and Rainbow and Sc1 to Sc2 ?
Are you for Real?

RainBOw bet against him self. He realized he could make more money off his 2nd place prize and bets. This is the only LOGICAL explanation as to why he's losing so badly.

ITR must be mentally destroyed, not to take anything away from Cool but it feels like this is really getting to ITR. If he can just pull back a game and get himself back in the right mindset he might still have a chance.

Haha wow this might be the worst LR thread of the whole tournament. I'm really enjoying the games, then the second I look at this thread I'm wondering if maybe I'm wrong to enjoy these games, lol w/e screw this have fun guys.

Also people dropping match fixing accusations make me sick, enjoy your paranoia I guess.

i would really like to see ITR do something that is not completely predictable in game 4 ... so far it feels like he is getting worse with every passing game, might be him (understandably) choking of course.
Although cool is playing extremely well nontheless, exploiting the mistakes ITR makes (passivity, predictability) to the max.

And btw i just realised that if you expect tank-drops the gold expo on kulas might actually be safer than the natural in that regard thanks to the very small ledge ... i never thought of that so far (although that might be because i havent met a zerg on kulas in ages)

Really? I don't see that possibly working, especially with the slowness of the build now


Really? At this point anything would be better than his "dont-harrass-until-on-3-bases" style -_-
He needs to be aggressive. Clearly macro games aren't working out for him vs Cool.
