It would be cool if baneling drops onto tanks became known as "Fruit Drops", but I don't think that one will catch on.

I don't think it's a great strategy either. Better drop them on marines, and drop roaches on tanks. Tanks are armored so the banelings only do their normal damage, which means you need lots of them to actually kill tanks. And without an insane economy lead like FD had, that's kinda hard.

Yeah 9 banes to kill a tank isn't exactly cost-effective, you'd need to hit like 3 tanks at once for it to be cost-effective =/ It's really good vs marinetank stuff though and if the banes would die anyway while running, why not just drop =P

Have there been any SC/BW tournaments with a bigger first place prize than this?

Also, what signature moves can be rightly attributed to Cool or even named after him?

-Baneling drops onto mech or to kill SCVs at Planetary Fortresses?
-Mass queen transfusion of mutas mid battle?
-Smoke speedling ambush?
-Transfused spine crawler defense against cliff drops?
-Anything about the guy's use of fungal growth?


Not to intentionally shut you down or anything, but in regards to your second question, I'm afraid none there's just a difference between having ideas and being able to actually execute them in gameplay.

I think the reason dropping blings (apples) on tanks is a tactic he kept on using again and again was that although blings do low damage to tanks, they kill them quickly. Which sorta makes up for the low cost effectiveness of blings vs tanks as the tanks don't get an extra 2-3 shots off before you kill them, hence you lose alot less of your other units trying to kill the tanks.

I wish I'd woken up for the first 3 games, I caught the last 2, which were awesome.

I come home from an incredibly exciting finals, and of course people just have to complain about a boring finals and how bad ITR was. Why can't people just accept that these two players knew each other well, having practiced together often, and therefore tried to keep one step ahead of each other? Cool just happened to be a step ahead, as you can see by how he 100% predicted those clifftanks both games - if ITR had went for early harassment, I expect Cool would have been ready for that too.

Cool made Zerg look good, not ITR. Jeez.


Its not even about predicting. LT and Terran = dropping at the natural, just like its always been and as for Kulas, there's a reason Zerg (almost) always votes against it. I wonder if game 4 would've went differently if he moved the drop to hit the push instead of his main.

This has probably been asked before but I don't know how to search within this thread so I'll ask: Will the VOD's be released to the public anytime? I don't have a GOMtv season pass so I haven't been able to watch any of the VOD's since they started removing them from youtube.

I wonder if you can buy those one day passes to watch the VODS for that day as well. Because I would definitely pay the 2 bucks or whatever to watch the finals vods.

The most weird thing is that 1st 3 maps are the terran favored and cool went 3:0, He was like map hacking all the time, knowing exactly where medivacs are going. It was pretty insane, too bad I don't think every zerg can be as good as cool... this realy show how better he is than the rest... Can't wait for season2 with july nada boxer and god know how many other old school legends

Poor Rainbow ): It's awesome that Cool won (for self-explanatory reasons), but Rainbow has always been one of my favorites in BW. GG!

I was thinking that too. He had flash-level map hacks in game 3.
