Thats a real shame, TLOs main strength as a player was coming up with unique builds and being aggressive from the start of the game to the end. Now that he switches to zerg he won't really get use of any those skills. I think he'll do worse with zerg because they don't allow for unique builds or being aggressive from the start of the game without taking huge risks of falling behind.

Looks like we watched diffrent TLO terran games. 90% of time he was just going Tank viking... that wasn't creative at all.

Lets face it Zerg is the most creative race in sc2. Since you can totally change the army composition with easy that it produces the most entertaining games.

TLO switches due to Zerg being FOTM. No one cares.

Any other Player switches due to Zerg being FOTM -> Shit storm & Flame war.

Just an interesting thing to note.

I always felt that there should be a random of two-race option. That way TLO could play randomly either Zerg or Terran.




Yes.

I have ALWAYS wanted a "Not X" option in RTS games. It seems like such an obvious and useful and easy to add feature. The only reason I can think of why developers don't include it is because it would make balance deficiencies more obvious.

Harsh comment but I agree... First TLO is like Terran suits me best. Then he comments "all zerg player whining about balance is childish" (on playxp) then gets pissed off that his race can't do 30 different opening and switches to zerg. Uhm, what?

Sorry if I'm getting this wrong, but that's what I am seeing =|

Actually almost nobody is switching races, you can just look at statistics...


Which statistics are you referring to? Not that I'm refuting your statement. Just that statistics take time to filter through. SC2ranks and other such resources will not show recent changes since it counts you as whatever race you play with the most. So if you play 33% Zerg, 33% Protoss and 34% Terran, you will be classed as Terran.

It is quite likely possible there are now more players trying out Zerg on the ladders and since they have only played a handful of games, their race will not update.

No one can say for certain what motivated him to move from one race to the other any of the times he has. Turning his decisions into girly gossip with bizarre drama and hidden motives should be beneath any of us. I think TLO has earned some respect and some credibility by now not to have his decisions picked apart and phantom drama added wherever needed by joe blow forum member.

TLO, go ahead and change your race 100 times if thats what you want. I will still cheer for you and watch your replays etc.

It's hilarious how some people seem to be offended on a personal level just because a player switches his race. If he wants to and it'll work well with his team mates, then why care?

As if playing T, P or Z says something about your character or your personality - some folks take this too serious. TLO switching T->Z is like David Beckham switching from Adidas to Nike soccer shoes. Game stays the same, only the tool it's played with is different now.

I enjoyed watching him play random, I enjoyed watching him play T, I'll enjoy watching him play Z.


Words right out of my mouth, TLO is using the game for what it was intended for. Entertainment!! If you're happy, that's all that matters.

TheLittleRandom can not be forced to play a single race! His overwhelming creative mind will always make the most fun gameplay to watch, who cares race! It will be hillarious. I personally still hope for him to go random and win 2-3 GSL in a row \o/
I figured out the EG Curse. It was set in motion by Voodoo Shamans working for Millenium. Whenever EG aquires a player, Voodoo energies start slowly draining skill from the EG guy into an Millenium newcomer. Think about it!

That's because TLO played random for so long that he can choose whatever race he feel like playing now because he already played it

"Dario has always felt that Zerg suited his play style the best "

he said this when he swapped to terran, however, i loved his zerg style in beta so gl!


No, what he said when he 'swapped'(He didn't really swap, he was playing Random originally), and he said he seemed to be a lot more effecient with terran, so he stuck with them...

I don't blame him for switching, being originally random player and performing well, he can change pretty much whenever he wants, and still do a great job, and not feel like betraying his beloved race

You could tell when he was making the comments about zerg whining that he was kind of saying 'this is pitiful, I had a blast playing zergs and could definitely do better (results and strategy-wise) than you whining Zergs.' And now he's made it official. I'm excited.
