I just realised that I played Thorzain in the TSL 3 qualifier like several months ago, didn't really know who he was back then but NOW I will cherish this replay for all eternity!

Lesson learned for TSL4: Don't shoutout an IRC channel you are in.

I'm really sorry about causing the lag and affecting the players' mindsets.

Your GF should be even more sorry about not letting you go to NYC to cast.


True! If anyone is to blame here it is her!
You can think I'm wrong, but that's no reason to quit thinking.

Just like Boxer picking the weakest race and becomes the master, Thorzain does the same and comes out winning TSL against all odds, as a Zerg, I am amazed of his skills. Terran isn't supposed to stand a chance on that map vs P, and he won. Sure, Chill's lag and Thorzain's nerves of ice made Naniwa lose a game he would have won 99 out of 100, but still, amazing match.

Wait what? Thorzain comes out winning as a zerg? Terran not standing a chance on that map? According to TLPD it's only 60% PvT.

Alot of mistakes during the final cause it to be close and thus entertaining, otherwise a Naniwa win was pretty obvious. Thorzain totally outclassed game 7, Naniwa under a lot of pressure got greedy and decided to kill his chances at the extra $8000. Up approximately 40 food and in worker count shoulda kept the light contained, grabbed his third with double forge twilight council and got charge/upgrades. And being the overall better player took it to late game and manhandle Thorzain like he did in the Shakuras game with a tech switch into mass gateway with storm. Oh well, pressure was the biggest factor of this loss, hes still the better player and will show it with future results as Thorzain will fade into mediocrity.

I feel REALLY bad about sleeping through the first 3 games. Luckily, the subsequent 4 games made up for it.

I'm really looking forward to watching the VODs. This was absolutely phenomenal.

Most ThorZaIN fans probably converted after he beat MC. After I saw that series... I knew he was different than all the rest. His 4-1 vs Kas only surprised me in that it wasn't 4-0. His 4-3 vs NaNiwa is only fitting. After all the big names ThorZaIN took down, who better to finish with than NaNiwa? ThorZaIN all the way.

Thorzain v FruitDealer here!
