No, he was being sloppy, but it didn't matter. That (lack of) midlane creep spread was what killed TLO. He might have wiped the first force if he'd had it. | ||

Also, glad to hear the audience is great there. Brazil is behind the times with the whole "SC2 is dead" thing. Give them 2 years and they will have caught up!! ^_~ And I also would never consider TLO to be the best foreign player, zerg, and maybe not even best German. I think Heromarine has been looking very good lately. TLO's success in this series is a large part due to Bomber's messups and blunders, though I'm not totally dismissive of TLO. I think he's doing pretty well, but I'm 95% positive he won't get past semi-finals here. | ||

That was literally the only way that TLO could win at that point, and that's exactly what happened. Bomber lost AT LEAST 65 supply from that attack, and maybe killed off 10 of TLO's. Obviously, he was still in a good position, but the game would have been 100% over if something like that didn't happen. Also, glad to hear the audience is great there. Brazil is behind the times with the whole "SC2 is dead" thing. Give them 2 years and they will have caught up!! ^_~ Even with that drop, TLO had no way to win. His production had been crippled at that point, and by the time TLO's mutas were across the map, Bomber had units defending every base. If TLO had had an extra hatch or so, he might have been able to flood units, but as it was, all the drop meant was that Bomber couldn't kill him *yet*. | ||

If he would have burrowed a few banes there beforehand this would have been the best trap ever. But yeah otherwise its just an lair overlord and you can easily creep it, without killing the rocks. | ||

He is definitely among the top foreigners in the world; I'd put Scarlett and Naniwa above him, but he's got a great mix of mechanics and work ethic and game sense that makes him dangerous in any tournament. I like TLO but I think he's at best in the middle tier of foreign players. | ||
