How did Lucifron lose his games?


Here's hoping Thorzain can take home the money. Was so crushed when White-Ra lost the money sooo narrowly to MC at the last DH Invitational.

Thorzain in his worst matchup vs. a top 3 Korean Zerg with his best matchup.

Looks like the gap between Koreans and foreigners are getting smaller, whatever the series will end in.


Meh, Thorzain has been practicing with SlayerS; he's also really good. As much as I would like the gap to be getting smaller, I really don't see one European (who has been practicing with a Korean pro-team) winning one game as proof of the gap diminishing.

Look at MLG


Lulz.. he played with slayers for like 4 days or something. Not really worth mentioning.


He just won game one because of SlayerS.

Worth mentioning imo.

oh cmon man Thorzain is one of my favorite but you are basing this of one freaking game.

That can hardly be credible evidence.




On top of that Thorzain is korean anyways.

It's human nature to cheer on underdogs, that's what makes the Rocky films so good!


I'm always cheering for FlaSh in order to see him getting closer to the 100% win ratio!


I dont actualy think that would be possible :S

I think foreigners will catch koreans soon because the skill ceiling on starcraft 2 is pretty low compared to brood war so koreans cant get much better then top ones like nestea or mvp play at right now.

I think that the stim taking so much time to complete (and you have to protect it against muta play) allowed DRG to nearly comeback :/.
It's so frustrating waiting for that damn upgrade when you shouldn't give your opponent time

Thorzain needs some TvZ lessons from Select.

You gotta have your marines grouped, and just go in a large clump, if you see banelings you need to do those quick splits. Slow pushes work in TvP but in TvZ vs a large muta cloud either go more aggresive or make a couple thors or this will be a quick 3-1 series.


They play the matchup totally different. It is like trying to argue with a bio guy to go mech. Some people just like one style over another. Thorzain plays passive and safe TvZ.

That game makes me think of what Nada said in his MLG interview with Slasher, saying that almost all foreign players seem to play overly safe. I need to go back and rewatch that interview.

Makes me laugh so much, have you seen how many blunders pros make still? If you actually think it is pretty low I don't even know what to say to you. Even with the mbs and easier interface people float a ton of minerals in battles and have poor multitasking.

Comparative to bw, it is a lower ceiling, but this game is no where close to being figure out or played anywhere close to perfect.

40 people killed him before he could make use of his curse. It's ok though they all have shoes now.

Thorzain is really playing well.
TvZ is his absolute worst MU, and he said that several times.

DRG's BEST Mu is ZvT.
His worst by far is vP.
