Yeah gz, great play, and strategic thinking. He got so much into HopeTorure head that he was paralized. I have feeling that top euro/na players would heve won last game if put into HopeTortures shoes once he got first reaper out. But he was so dominated by FruitDealer he was unable to do so.

Why?

Because Zerg obviously ain't that bad that people, and especially zerg players, makes them out to be.

Curious to see what will happen next season when more talent flows into the GSL. Fruitdealer played well, but he also had some luck on his side (Top choking and avoiding Tester in the brackets). Should be interesting

That's what I'm thinking as well. Why'd he be raging at that?
At the prospect of a zerg winning the tournament, thus putting out some of the fire under the imbalance discussions?

Watch state of the game Podcast and you'll know..

He was most likely posting that on his twitter because of the drama and fight in this thread, after someone saw Idra's first twitter message about the finals.

Looking at that series, even tho ITR won on DO and finally did a super-aggressive build on SS, his overall play still seemed too passive.

In these 5 games;

He built ZERO banshees.

He built ONE helion.

He built 3-5 reapers.

He built no more than 5 marauders.

There is a reason people think TvZ is adv T... b/c of these units, yet he didn't "abuse," let alone use in any real capacity, a single one.

Overall, his play was predictable, sloppy (or simply being out-microed), and failed to punish the super-greedy builds of cool at ALL. The only game he even attempted to punish the FE was on SS but he got outmicroed by lings without speed.

I expect GSL 2 to have much higher play overall, but this was still a fun journey. Gratz to cool. He is truely the best player in the world atm.
