Dude, you almost made me LOL in class Glad I managed to stop reading in class after the first paragraph.

Brilliant use of the word balls. It's good to see real men playing Zerg, making full use of their balls. Speedlings and mutalisk, they suppport our huge balls.

Also, I will never play the clarinet, nor ever look at it being played in the same way af before.

I fantasize about Artosis all the time, sometimes we're alone in a log cabin in winter, sometime he is giving me a sensual massage. Sometimes he's just holding me in his powerful arms.
mmmm

You forgot to mention IdrosiS - IdrA and Artosis's child. God help us all
Welcome to TL - Where Terran have been teaching the Zerg / Toss pros how to play since Patch 11

One of the good points the OP makes is that Zerg players in BW were given huge donkey balls to move out and contain/flank the opponent by using the speed their units. In SC2 the general speed of the Zerg units seems lower and we do get some speed bump on creep. What this does is to castrate the Zerg by not allowing the use of speed to contain/flank the opponent.

So what should be done? Allow queens put creep tumors outside creep? Creep diarrhea out of Zerlings asses upgrade? I don't know... All I want is my balls back...

sad that having a whole weird thing like this written about him will only fuel his bizarre ego


Yeah. Artosis is overrated and at the very least marginally delusional.

I don't know when another "comprehensive look" will come out. And its not really a time issue. The IdrA and Artosis threads took maybe ten minutes each to write. It's more of an issue of trying to find cool Zerg players. I like Dimaga, but he might switch, and I'm not sold on Mad Frog yet. If Jaedong ever switched to SC2, I'd write a 10 page paper (don't hold me to that).

You know Beef, both idra and artosis played terran in sc1, so they are hardly the epitome of balls.

I’m not hear to complain. I’m here to get back some...


How do you misspell a word and then use the same word in the same context 3 words later, and spell it correctly

Hades = god of underworld, other than that, fun article and a lot less offensive than comparing idra's bm to churchill standing up to the nazis.

“Playing Protoss and Terran is like playing the clarinet only to find out that said clarinet was in fact a hairy penis.” Where as playing Zerg is like “dating the hottest girl in your high school, but you are only in fourth grade.”
