roflwhat he cheated his way to that ladder score. it was technically within the rules but it was certainly not legit. he was nothing at bw. saying you were the third best sc1 terran outside of korea, which is arguable in itself, is like saying you're the third smartest kid in the special class. Omg I'm humbled to have the Idra flame warming the bottom of my post, tell it like it is brotha. Props for sticking with Z so long in this hostile environment and playing solid games. Anyways, is debating if Morrow was worth a damn or not in SC1 really relevant? He has the highest amount of SC2 tourney wins and backs his stance with that fact. Even if he was a D player in BW it doesn't change what he has accomplished now. | ||

I know you are a very well established player, and you are very well respected for your playstyle. But you seriously need to stop being so bitter imo. To be honest, you didn't lose the GSL because you are a bad player, or your race is underpowered, you lost because you were outplayed. In my books you are only as good as your last match, and that didn't give me evidence to suggest Zerg is horribly underpowered. MorroW, I hope you put in the hard yards and do well as Zerg. I would love to tune into the go4SC2 cup this week to see MorroW(Z) playing, and progressing. You have shown you are willing to put in the time and have the ability to be a top level player and hopefully results reflect this. That said, please don't give up your Terran completely  You are certainly one of the top 3 players I want to watch right now, and that's because of your cool playstyle. :D | ||

Thats how it goes if you abuse to the max. Still a very good player without abuse.Thats life. If he can make it with zerg he gets some respect. Otherwise he stays the nr.1 terran abuser for the biggest part of the community. | ||

he would need a month to be good as zerg and even then he can't be sure if he would be also at the top as zerg. so, I don't think he will keep playing as zerg. he was probably just checking/testing the race. | ||

If Idra wins - he's an amazing player. If Idra loses - the opponent is a one-trick pony scrub, and SC2 is a complete joke anyway, and by the way several years ago Idra was a promising foreigner in a different, albeit related RTS! | ||

Come down from the clouds for 2 seconds and realize that an A level BW Terran foreigner is damn good and is probably better than 99% of RTS players ever. Just because someone isn't up to the skill level of people who play 12 hours a day doesn't mean they don't deserve any respect whatsoever. | ||

You mean the vocal minority that plays Zerg because it's the one race where you can constantly lose and still claim you're better than your opponent because the other two races are imba and Zerg takes true skill? | ||

It's good thing then that nony and ret can't be mentioned in the same breath for sc2. Why don't you switch to terran and prove it yourself? | ||

Can you post a link to your diploma from the Online University of Debating Like an Asshat? Yes, because MorroW has never practiced SC2 before in his life. He came in cold and his entire experience was limited to practicing reaper micro for two hours the day before. He, like every player who ever beats Idra, is obviously a worthless scrub who 1a2a3a's his way to an undeserved victory. (to the Aspie population of TL.net - the above is sarcasm) Wow you're references gets worse by the post. I'm glad you've acquired the talent of reusing shitty internet insults, and your effort is far from going unnoticed. I never said he didn't play alot, I'm referring to how much of an upper-hand he could get from 2 hours of practicing the night BEFORE the finals. My point was essentially that it might be a reason to why he isn't universally viewed as a top top player by everyone (which anyone who wins an IEM should). But as the flawless and brilliant persona that you are did not make this connection, I'm inclined to believe that you're a) a douche b) mentally challenged, or c) both. | ||

I'd say it beats being the vocal majority that plays Terran because it's the one race where you can constantly win and still claim you're better than your opponent because the other two races don't know how to be creative and play right | ||

How do you know how it would have went if he didn't do the reaper play. It seems that you are assuming he would have been way behind without the reapers. | ||
