Yes i agree it's more reliable but for example Hero hasn't won any major tournaments but when you see him playing you know he is really good that's what i mean. | ||

He's placed highly in tournaments while playing well. Just like the original statement said ThorZain getting 2nd in this tournament as an example of skill, not a 'winning' | ||

And i think DRG will eat Rain alive if he manages to beat lucifron since even idra has beaten rain 3-1 in IEM.. In the finals DRG will beat thorzain. Wow you got it right. | ||

Compare the series and DRG was much less 'expand aggressive'. Which resulted in his lack of tech switch able. EDIT: BarCraft RETRO Stockholm was awesome! Looking forward to future BarCrafts. ! ;D That's actually DRG's main style. Not to mention that as the casters pointed out, the games he lost were close spawns, which is a much harder position to take a fast 3rd on (I mean really, close spawns Tal'Darim with a T and you want him to take a fast 3rd? What? Such a huge risk). | ||
