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.


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.

Anyone can see JD played extremely well in that series despite losing, this is completely different.

it's hard to imagine fruitdealer giving up 4 games straight here... he's got the momentum, he has a game or 2 to risk something. I think he should just go speed lings or roaches first for rest of the matches, I have a feeling ITR is gonna play really aggressive.. maybe some early barracks play.. Idk, but pretty sure fruitdealer is going to win

Pressure. Metagame. Think outside the box, bro. Seriously it's not really that hard, you probably did it in class once. ITR obviously can't handle it this time around.

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


What he's saying is true, JvF often ends up in one sided rapes, have you been watching? Now ask yourself, are YOU for real?

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'm not talkin about that game although expanding to gold (GOLD = ALWAYS RISKY, GOLD EARLY = EXTREMELY RISKY) is easily counterable by anyone who is decent. Cool was throwing hidden expansions on LT too. That's not solid play. But really HopeTorture plays so bad, just think about it for a second. How can you let Zerg Nydus worm your base, omg - you can stop that with pure scv's, lol.

Anyone can see JD played extremely well in that series despite losing, this is completely different.

subtle plays like tank ledge defense, map control and containing, drop ship defense is much more impressive than people perceive...

since all this is what ITR is good at, obviously he's going to be mindfucked and play "badly" when all his shit gets parried

idra is better imo


I dont think so. Cool is more creative and flexible and in general better than Idra.

People who think that Idra is better, only want a non-korean winner.

I've seen him play much better players in SC (even Savior in his prime) and put up a much better fight than this, even winning games.

Why doesnt rainbow make any hellion/reaper/banshee EVER?

A terran that doesnt harass, is like a zerg that doesnt expand. Ensnare would prolly have harassed fruitseller to death on all of those first maps.
