Idra's tweet about thanking Rainbow for making Z look good is just flat out disrespectful to FruitDealer.

I know most of you idolize the guy for some weird reason but c'mon, call a spade a spade. That's completely out of line and just pathetic of Idra to make a comment like that.



How in gods name is it pathetic and completely out of line? He feels that ITR isnt doing what he should be doing, which is why cool is winning on these maps that he shouldnt be winning on. He's allowed to tweet whatever he wants. Stop being so dramatic.

Idra's pretty much right =/ Cool has about zero units in the midgame and is completely taking advantage of the passive style ITR is taking to take free expansions. Even in the Delta game ITR only started dropping once as he was taking his third base, by then Cool had established his four bases and was getting his 5th. ITR needs to wake up to this and punish Cool for being too greedy or take expansions more recklessly himself - either way he needs to stop playing like Cool expects him to, and then Cool should die.

The key difference between Cool and other zergs at the moment is that Cool is playing completely recklessly with his expanding, hoping that ITR is going to play passive, and he's getting away with it. He's taking huge risks, but they're paying off.

Cool's skill is so tremendously far ahead of ITR, it's insane. Though ITR also does not seem to be playing his best...
I understand IdrA's mentality though: people will see this and say "Zerg is in fact fine" when it obviously isn't. Still, everybody should applaud Cool's insane abillity and just enjoy rather than think about balance for the finals.

Well...he's right.

Rainbow really isnt playing well at all...
This game on lt would have gone that way if it were ensnare he'd been playing against.

I dont understand why he doesnt used any hellion, reaper, banshee harass whatever.

Letting the zerg macro and wonder why he rolls over you...i dunno...rainbow is simply blaying not good at all.
Sure, cool is good, but those games arent one-sided because cool is SOOOOO good, hes playing as good as always, but rainbow...oh rainbow...

Well I'm starting to dislike that IdrA guy if he's really saying those things lol

Didn't check and cool say he is the best macro zerg? So what does he do? he talks trash about them instead of supporting them? >_>

Why do you people like him?

anyone else totally annoyed with how long the breaks are between games? It has been 1 hr and a half and they have only played 2 games. Kind of ridiculous.
They are here to right our fall, they have heard someones troubled call???

ITR would destroy every other Zerg - it's not that he's playing badly, it's just that FruitDealer is playing absofruitely amazing. Respect where respect is due. IdrA is showing bad manners (surprise, surprise!) by disrespecting FruitDealers amazing play.


I think this should be the word that replaces absolutely, permanently.

On my way...

People bashing idra for his twitter comments do I have to remind you that even though FD is playing AMAZING idra still remains the best Zerg player in the world. So show some respect


But I don't see him playing vs HopeTorture in the finals.... I doubt IdrA would have any chance going past Ro64 or Ro32 (if he's lucky) next GSL season, these Koreans already showing their RTS dominance in SC2.


Idra is not the best Zerg in the world. He's not even better than Sen, lol. Sen and FD display a level of adaptation, cunning and game sense that no amount of practice will grant Idra.

Can we please try not to make balance statements based on one series? Could it possibly be that FD is just a boss (still games to go.)

With that said, I was/am pulling for FD, but not 4-0. ITR really needs to step it up... it's weird but he's playing Terran like Zerg right now. Terran's strength is early harass. So far we saw 1 hellion go out (no harass) in g1 and 1 tank in g2 (2 tanks is sooo much scarier.)

Pick it up ITR! I don't want a shutout

Tastosis actually caught himself now. They did say Lost Temple was a Terran favored map, but you didn't see Cool struggling.

Tasteless goes "Believe us guys, THIS IS A TERRAN FAVORED MAP"

If ITR doesn't abuse early game (helions, reapers, banshees) he will lose.
