We never saw any of the awesome midgame Foxer marine micro play we saw against Fruitdealer. He just went all-in with 4 marines and a dozen SCV's most games.

Nerves must have really come into play in the last game. Hopefully he will learn something from this experience and be more patient the next time around.
Yea!! NesTea learnt from his mistake and did not engage Foxer's unit until zerglings r out @ last match. With additional defend building keke.

Tester, Slayers_BoxeR, NaDa etc. I think you know what i'm implying here.
FE before pool is free for zerg vs Terran. Terran can't stop it. GL Blizzard keep on the good job balancing the game!!
If I'm not mistaken we saw tons of games where this isn't the case at all in this GSL... and if I'm not mistaken ones in the finals? Are you only capable of remembering the last game you saw?
It was really great drone micro that caught the play incoming and delayed enough to get the lings out. It was then great drone/ling micro that held off the initial push. But terran is still plenty capable of 2 rax FE harass/bunker play for sure. Now Zerg actually has a chance to hold it off, unlike before when even incredible micro wouldn't matter.
Oh yeah and Foxer doesn't have an incredible micro, right? Final game showed us how it should be if both Terran and Zerg players play on the same level when a Zerg FE before pool vs a terran. The game where Nestea lost to that he didn't defend it the right way like last game.

Doing a 2 rax all in on close position metalopolis and a 16 marine drop that snipes the baneling nest on jungle basin isn't awesome midgame marine micro.
He did have really good micro against Kyrix but that isn't fruitdealer
well, for those saying this season's finals was better than the last season's, my take is that whenever you really care about one of the players, the match becomes that much exciting... In season 1 I was pulling SO HARD for fruitdealer, and being so much emotionally envolved that his matches against TOP, NEXLiveForever and even the matches against Inca and HopeTorture (commonly seen as lackluster games) were by far the games I enjoyed the most so far.

The only thing you can be implying is that they're all "has-been".

Keke, I wan Flash to switch over
Now I watch SC2, but my favourite player is still Flash. 2nd is Foxer, then BoxeR.
Hmm...I'm not sure I like FoxeR more or BoxeR.. Need to see Season 3 performance

Patch 1.1.4 Notes
Balance changes:
Terran: Mule now lasts 15 seconds longer. Banshee build time reduced 10 seconds
Zerg: Roach build time decreased 5 seconds You now get 3 zerglings per egg
Protoss: Race deleted from selection list.
Altho i see your irony 15 secons isnt even a complete mining circle =X
A mule gets 270 minerals in 90 seconds, each trip bringing in 30 minerals. That's 10 seconds per trip, so would be 1-2 more trips depending on when it ends now.

Boxer and Nada *were* very good BW pros. Emphasis in were. Tester was not. If a top 20 bw player, right now, switches to sc2, he will dominate. (unless he picks protoss lololol)

No, they will not. SC1 is not SC2.
Flash would lose to the same cheese anyone else does, it's not like 500 APM will make marines any faster.
