The question is: will he be practiced enough to succeed in GSL3 with Zerg?

I'm almost certain he has played enough to be able to win, and play the race to his play style if he announced he was playing Zerg permanently

Well if he was considering it for a while, I guess it's really not that big of a deal. It's not like he's suddenly switching to zerg purely because they've gotten a lot stronger.

Regardless of what race he is, TLO fighting!

I wish he'd bring his Toss up to par and go back to Random. Random least represented race tt

Makes sense. TLO is a strong all-around player (as opposed to specialized, mono-race ones) and he's a beacon of creativity. I think that it would be interesting to see the way he can exploit the changes put forth by each new patch.

so he prefers zerg but he played terran for some reason for so long? while claiming that he doesnt think that T is op? and now that most of the hilarious early game options terran has have been nerfed, hes jumping on the next bandwagon? this is kinda disappointing

I think he really could have stood a chance against at least Dimaga if it was TvZ, but in ZvZ he must have just gotten totally rolled.

However, on the bright side of things - we get to see TLO play Zerg again, and that makes me so happy.

He's a professional progamer. So he has to get results obviously so he'll stick to the race that is the strongest. Like Dimaga once made that statement before IEM I think and I don't blame them. They have to get results as do every other progamer.

Sad to see TLO switch. My decision to play Terran is partially based on his Terran's play during beta so it's a little bit sad to see him switches race.

Also, I think the distribution of player in TL is a little bit skewed right now. IIRC; after TLO's switch, TL has 3 Zerg, 1 Terran, 2 Protoss (including Liquid'Nazgul), hasn't it? Would TL recruit new Terran player?

Meh if I was a progamer and could play 2 races at a high level I would switch between whichever one I felt was strongest, why wouldn't you?

spin master right here.

On a side note i believe pre patch zergs deserve some credit for sticking to their guns (even though i never really thought they were UP much), we see a whole bunch of people switching/trying zerg our after only a couple weeks of this new patch

TLO has an advantage over all other progamers though. When all races are perfectly balanced TLO can just switch back to random while all others are too confused about which race to choose and propably stop playing SC2

I agree. I have much respect for the people who make their race work, whether or not it's considered stronger than the others.

Idra, zenio, Fruitdealer, all these guys stuck it out, made it work, and that's why they have the respect they do.

TLO switching immediately after a patch like this is a little disappointing.
