This thread is rediculous. Hopefully with some time Morrow and the rest of the zerg players will figure out the strengths of the Zerg and we can put all these retarded flame wars behind us.

This thread is ridiculous.

And all the hate on Terran players is ridiculous. If a Terran wins, it's race imba. Some Terran players are really skilled, it's not fair to clump them ALL as race abusers.

This is coming from a Zerg user as well.

It's quite obvious that when you offrace on ladder when you are actually like top 1 of your region at above 2k points you gonna get some losing streak(especially when switching to harder race like zerg). I don't get all the hate here, give him some props for trying.

I just wanted to put my own little comment into the shit pile this thread has become:

Morrow is a macro player and not a cheese player, and if some of you had seen any of his games aside from IEM you would know that. 5rax reaper isn't really even cheese because you can expand relatively quickly and safely.

Agreed that this is a bit out of hand. I'm all for loving your Race but people in here are acting like its the Civil War its not that serious folks. I mean idrA played terran in SC1 and switched to Zerg and he is great player and all zergs swear by his word but really seriously in the end anyone can play whatever they want. To much elitism in here from people that aren't even close to the same level as idrA or morrow. Acting like they are protecting thier precious zerg. TT1 plays Toss most of the time but on his stream he will play Zerg and is pretty good at it. No one is bashing him. Its like Morrow is the Anti-Christ in this thread. Let him get the timings down and larvae management down. I'm sure he will do fine. Remember he pretty much does this for a living. Many people here posting are probably at work flaming him and right now Morrow is probably at home practicing non-stop putting in hours in that most people in this thread just can't do. That alone should tell you that if he does "suck" it won't be for long.

Don't understand all the hate in here.

I don't understand the hate either, it seems that MorroW gets flamed for everything he does.

Go MorroW, the Swarm needs players like you!

Morrow is a funny guy for trying stuff like this. Props to him! And the funniest thing is that so many people take this game too seriously and start hating no good reason at all.

This thread has derailed , too much zerg hate on this thread.
Zerg ain't weak. It's just somewhat tougher to play, and those 99% of zergs out there that can't play it well continuously whine that Zerg is too weak.
Cool can do it , Idra can do it , Check can do it, it's just that you can't simple as that.
The last time I checked Idra lost most of his bigger games cos he was to an extent , Predictable. Same goes for IEM , same goes for GSL , the opponent simply knows what Idra's game is and comes up with a strat/build to beat him, and failing to scout a hidden expansion that constantly sent down zealots is just sad.

Morrow is probably the best Foreign Terran in SC2 currently , or at least the one with the best mechanics , while i'm sure he'll be a good Zerg if he really goes for it , he might have been the only Foreign Terran that could even compare with the likes of Rainbow and the other Korean Terrans.
Imo it's kind of a waste and sad that such a good player goes messing around with other races instead of trying to be the best in the world.

It won't take MorroW just a couple of games or weeks or months to stop his loosing streak if he continues zerg. He is one of the best terran players by far and I love watching his games. But the skill required to keep up the same score/rank is immense when it comes to zerg. I just wanna stress that this isnt a MorroW hate post. I just think that too many people think that just because he is pro he will do well with zerg. He will do better than the average "scrub pro" (new pro's like painuser drewbie, masq,silver etc, people that are just riding the terran wave (MorroW is not one of them)). I would love to see MorroW as Z, but he would be in the same boat as some of the best players out there... he could do insane games but still end up loosing which is the balance problem.

How the hell is this thread 23 pages long...

People offrace on the ladder, it doesn't nessecarily mean anything. Zerg players switching to any race playing at their current ladder ranking would probably get stomped too, just like terran and protoss players would.

Still waiting for a zerg switching to T to win a tournament!

You know what would be more funny? Cool winning GSL and Morrow starting to wtfpwn with zerg. Mb then all zerg players will shut the fuck up about balance.

This is pretty a reasonable definition of something being weak: "X is weak if it takes more skill to win using X than it takes to win using Y."
You're probably thinking of another way to define "weak", which in turn is not unreasonable. After all, "weak" is a fuzzy concept. Which one is it?

I didn't like Morrow's attitude in BW, but he's been nothing but a mannered player with strong strategies who has made many reasonable comments about balance and has posted very good results in Europe.

He probably will fail as zerg, but people need to stop getting personal about him. It's such a shitty thing to do.

Nice to see Morrow trying zerg. He's an extremely strong player (his TvT is so solid and enjoyable to watch), I'm sure he'll do well in zerg. Obviously now he learn while facing top players, so he loses.
Go Morrow !

Props for trying, gl with whatever race you try
interesting to see if it's just a little experimenting or if he'll stick to zerg :<
