I would consider that cheating but TL didn't I guess. And yes I realize that he only get a few couple of points off of them to tip him over to A, but I still think it's pretty bad. | ||

Hell, what if I got every single win off of D-level players and qualified for the TSL? | ||

That is such nonsense. Surprise surprise, Europeans love Morrow because of rose colored lenses. ENOUGH SAID But yeah there's no nationalism bias at all in this thread. Europe is not a nation. | ||

But every thread which is about the current race discussion ends up being an Idra-fanboy vs. Idra-hater battle... And the fanboys are the much more annoying ones because they just state that Idra shouldn't lose anything if he would play the right race because he is the best player. Without doubt. I like Morrows attitude, he makes some logical points, and many people said that they would like to see a top terran play zerg. Well that's your chance, I don't get why everyone is hating Morrow for that. He is basically sacrificing his good ladder ranking and his credibility for testing this out (and for having more fun obviously) and some people are hating and nerdraging him for that, which is just irrational behaviour. But I think the Idra-groupies just are a little bit irrational from time to time Which doesn't say anything about Idra, I like to see him play and I think he is a really smart guy with some manner problems, but he's always honest. I hope Morrow stays at Zerg and doesn't switch back. It's just really cool, I'll be your fan 100%! Well, I'm in this thread cleaning it up now. I'd appreciate a little faith in late action than anger towards a job not being done immediately. | ||

That said I've found Morrow's responses to be very mature and responsible and I am 100% impressed with him in this thread. It makes me wish we did have a subforum where only the top players could post but everyone else could read so we didnt have these good conversations inflated by 25 pages of nonsense and maybe 5 pages of useful posts. | ||

But you say that you got to the peak playing Terran and can't improve anymore and that the game is easy. I question this, you are one of the best players out there, of course the game will be easy don't you think? You practiced a lot and have a huge BW background too. Wouldn't Flash and Jaedong say that BW is easy for them? I have hope in the game. | ||

My best wishes and support to you as you strive to master Zerg. It's awesome to see a progamer who is willing to take a hit in their rankings to try something new. Let it be a reminder to us all that we play SC2 because we ENJOY IT and it is FUN! As a Zerg player looking to improve their own gameplay, I'm looking forward to reviewing your replay packs to watch you learn how to play Zerg and hopefully it will open my eyes to new things as well. Hopefully you will not be shy about posting your discoveries here in TL.net and in the strategy forums! Best of luck to you!To the trolls/flamers, MorroW is an excellent player, and not just because he played Terran. While Terran is commonly perceived as overpowered, it still takes a great deal of skill and refined play to perform at the level that MorroW has, and for that I respect him, even if he's not been the one I've been cheering for in most tournaments (IdrA at IEM, damn you reapers!). If MorroW sticks with Zerg, I have no doubt that he will perform very well, because he is just a good gamer and has a good grasp on the mechanics and strategy of the game. Good players > racial imba; just look at IdrA, Sen, Cool, and Dimaga, each of whom makes Zerg look OP. Again, best of luck you you MorroW! Please educate the rest of us swarmers with you insights and discoveries as you learn Zerg, and additional replay packs are definitely welcome! | ||

Care to share some of that advice from madfrog? Also, by the way, major props on doin your own thing dude. Its pretty encouraging seeing u try zerg out and handling your zerg losses like a total boss. I've been hesitant to play after all these nerfs to zerg. After reading through your posts in this thread though, hearing about your recent change to learning zerg, and positive outlook on losing/learning a new race for fun, encourages me all to hell to suck it up and continue my climb up the ladder. I need to adopt that day 9 "better get an earlier pool" outlook. But yeah keep it up, and thanks for posting! and good luck with that zergage! | ||

Make one bad comment towards Idra, Artosis, x popular player and you have a ban/warning on your ass. And Idras comments in this thread should warrent him several warnings, maybe a ban, but we all know that wont happen. Hypocrisy at it's best TL! And much respect to MorroW btw. I don't think any other pro player would even consider something like this. He's only 18 but he's got far bigger balls then most 20+ pro players, including Idra. MorroW fightning! User was banned for this post. now why exactly did he just got banned? you TL guys are fucking hypocrits... spreading hate > non tl fucktards... User was warned for this post | ||
