I am pretty sure Lilbow and his "I practise for lotv" still takes the cake.

It's just sad to see soO win a championship. Clearly can't handle the success, needs to experience excruciating defeat to stay motivated.

By the end of WoL, you mean like 2+ years of it, I guess. 2+ years? You mean, you think brood lord infestor was the composition prefered by FruitDealer? On the top of my head, I still remember Kiwikaki-Stephano from IPL3 2011 which was October 2011 and at this point it was pretty popular strategy. So ~2 years is fair assessment I think. For sure its for the most part of WoL(which is what I meant with my original post). Fruitdealer won in mid 2010.

That's just hilariously ironic in hindsight simply because he got into that whole fight with TLO and then in the first big LotV tournament lost to TLO because he tried to play LotV like it was still HotS.

was wondering how Lilbow was doing and he won more than 100k in overwatch in 2019 :O

Someone should make a thread about this

Wow, great idea. Such sophisticated gameplay too.

No but seriously nydus is more annoying than BL/infestor. It hurts your build up before the late game so much. It also stops you from doing timings before BLs because you don't want to sack your bases. And then there's the combo potential with swarm hosts too.

It looks like he can't be bothered to play anymore, whether he's just satisfied with winning IEM or given up completely is unknown.

For some reason this tweet rubs me the wrong way. It's almost as if he does not acknowledge that it was his play that lost him at least 1 of the games.

It is true that Bl/Infestor/Corruptor/Viper does not help at every professional level, and terran can still severely outplay worse zergs in LOTV.
However, if Broodlords destroy everything Terran on the ground (including supposed counters like Thors and Ghosts) and Corruptors destroy everything in the air for cost (including BCs) while Infestors and Vipers add situational tech, what does Terran really do? It is a bit silly tbh.
Zerg should be the aggro race, tbh, I have no problem with roach maxes, ravager rushes, bane busts and whatnot.
