GSL1 has been a huge disappointment imo. Would've rather seen TLO vs idra. Koreans once again prove they are nothing but hype.

Lol oh how wrong you are


I think you'll get about one more troll post like this off before you get a ban, I hope it's worth it.

I think ITR is missing one key concept in his plays and that is to deny zerg expansions. If he lets Cool take the map, it is no wonder that he gets overwhelmed so badly.

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.


Exactly. Cool isn't engaging unless he has these super armies. If you give a zerg as much room to do whatever they want as this, then it doesn't matter if it's Idra, Sen or Check, they will destroy the terran.

This playstyle is simply not working. He needs to open reaper or helion. He needs to try an earlier timing push. He needs to stop with the dropship play.

This is not even fair, I want fruitdealer to win, but I don't want to see such one sided final. So rainbow, take a game or two please.

Fisher doesnt have to appologise! He's already my hero for restreaming, and trying to fix it when it goes wrong etc.. No need to apologise and a thousand thanks for your efforts =)

Exactly, when Terran plays passive and FruitDealer is allowed to take mass expansions, HopeTorture CANNOT claw his way forward off of 3 bases. He can't retake initiative and make FruitDealer react to his play. There isn't this big terran unstoppable push because FruitDealer doesn't let him.

Yes, I agree. You guys are way over reacting for no reason at all.

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.

This LR thread is worse than usual, full of raving, ignorant fanboys... Idra would stomp ITR playing like this. Congrats to Cool for playing well but it's really ITR's predictable/passive play and poor decision making that's dictating the outcomes thus far

You are right. but the question is about what I "bolded". Is he risky all the way, or is he playing a specific opponent and knows that his tactic is to mech 200/200 with drops in between. What is wrong with knowing what your opponent is doing and countering is very very hard ?
