Why?
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?


Because people are going to use this as a reason to why Zerg isn't UP and say 'play like cool' when in reality Rainbow just played quite poorly.

The smoke ambush was awesome and probably won this game.

It just might have. Small moves like that tend to get lost in the bigger picture, but that was what killed the momentum of ITR and swung him into a safe window where he could secure that huge eco.
Pimp play. Really glad map features like that are in

An OH so satisfying first GSL.

It's really a shame there are so many people complaining about this series.

Go watch the first OSL/MSLs. The play was not exactly good back then either, and of course in a few months to years these games will most likely be laughable. To me though that's even more reason to enjoy them for what they are, a piece of history.
Yeah

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

Sorry but... Cool is an exeptional player, the best of the best... thats why he won... not because zerg is good.

What a disappointing finals. Fruitseller played very well, the opponent, however, just showed a mediocre play at best.

Congrats, Cool.

Grats Cool.

Zerg didn't beat Terran. The better player beat the worse player. Race imbalance only shows up when skill levels are equal, and from watching that, they clearly were not playing on the same level.


This.
ITR took ages to react to any type of harass.
Ensnare and Tester would be pulling their hair out.
Thy Shall Die Alone...or emm..something like that.

Such a nice fairytale ending to a arguably controversial GSL.
Great play from Fruit dealer, couldn't be more satisfied - well I guess gGomTV could improve their broadcasting. =/

Idra just needs to watch cool and learn.


What he needs to learn? How to be matched against 1 build using terrans?

However, congratz to Cool. He played solid and was clearly a better player here.

Hahah - in the prediction thread, 4-1 for Fruitseller was the option with the LEAST number of votes .

So incredible that that was what transpired!

Zerg fighting!

2 posts, cute trolling, this won't change the fact that Zerg is the worse race and need some balance changes

Well yeah. Can't argue with the fact that this series puts a whole new perspective on zerg opportunities. Especially thinking about the games on Delta Quadrant and Kulas Ravine.
I'm not gonna take sides in the balance discussion in this thread.

Well now FruitDealer must qualify GSL Season II through open qualifiers. Shame if he drops out though.
