I guess you think Battle of the Timing Attacks is the epitome of strategy. I don't comprehend how you label creative play as stupid shit. Well to be fair, his "creative" play will only get him so far with zerg. You NEED to have strong macro mechanics to back up that "creativity" and TLO's macro is well...decent at best. Don't get me wrong. I like TLO style of play but in professional league, I agree with Lucid90 to some degree. | ||

It just seems like nerves. | ||

Doesn't take an astronaut to figure out TLO favors cheesy wins over drawn-out games. Aside from fast rushes and the roaches, zerg play is mainly unchanged from what is was vs terran; It's still a pain in the @#% to defend a fast marine+tank push, especially if you went FE. People who were bad with zerg before the patch will still suck hard with zerg now. The roach range will help a little but in the long run ? Nah. Aside from that, GREAT... We'll get EVEN MORE "rerolled terrans" who will play zerg the same way all of these failed players do in zvz : 1 base spam 30 roaches a-move, something that basically forces the opponent to do the same... It's even more retarded than the old tank/viking TvTs and that's quite an achievement ! | ||

He was a Random whose strong races were T and Z. And to call TLO a cheesy player is retarded. He's not some rush-oriented one baser, jesus. The games that made him famous were all late-game macro games where he won with incredibly entertaining and creative strategies. It's like the only game you ever saw was the GSL2 thor push on Steppes. | ||
