And in recent wins, then are ahead of terran. Even if they are the most played race, they are far above their % in wins | ||

We could get those kinds of answers from a crowd of trolls on the BNET forums. | ||

I'm really hoping july can entertain us with his style, wether he wins or not, I just don't want it to be the a boring Forcefield,/colossus/stalkers pvz steamroll. but then again, july might opt for going 6 pool every game or something boring like that as well. | ||

MC is like i said, entitled to his cockiness, and i doubt he had knowledge of who Ciarra is, he probably got the information from someone else. That's why i refrain from bashing Idra. Also, because, more often than not, IdrA is wrong on players credential. The main components of my tirade stands still, when you are not a World beater, you keep it on the low and you show that you are the better men with results. Saying otherwise does not promote sportsmanship, and if you want to duke it out, tell the guy in his face, if not, don't act like a bitch hiding behind your computer. I don't want a scene where everything is serious to the point of being character less, but it's hard to take one seriously when one's making such harsh statements about a GSL finalist. It's also funny that people shits on Rain, because, he might not be the best of the best, but he's back to Code S, something that quite alot of the guys you revere wouldn't be able to achieve. Like the guys on SoTG saying that NaDa and July matches were horrible,next thing you know, the writers on TL rated it as 4.5 out of 5. There's artificial standards set by people in the community. You can take Tyler for example, he doesn't like how July plays, and that's alright, but I've never heard him say that July just plainly sucks. Basically, I'm not here to defend July just because he's July or whatever, and I'm not against the critics to his play style, but I'm against that artificial standard created by a few. I'm also against players detrimental to others just because of stylistical differences. And my dude, if you don't like that, it's of no consequence to me. | ||

However the new GSL maps make it very easy for Terran / Toss to get enough resources to support a nearly unkillable army. If you play a defensive style. So Zergs only option is to be aggressive, making good trades preventing the ultimate composition. Not saying July is playing optimally, in fact i think he'll loose to MC. However i feel once Zergs learn to play aggressive but in a more refined way, than July is playing right now. It will be seen as the right way to play Zerg. Really, why should the Zerg late game army be able to stand and fight with Terran or Toss late game army? Characteristically it shouldn't be able to. Agreed. Just look at the PvZ match up in Brood War as proof. Zerg was absolutely dominating Protoss so hard it wasn't even fun to watch. Then Bisu came.. | ||

People shit on rain because hes not fancy or special, he just plays well. He doesnt stand out in any way besides being a solid player. He doesn't mass marines or have perfect control or play sc2 as a gorilla foreigner like other S class terrans do. Nada vs July matches were terrible. I dont understand how players of that caliber cant scout baneling busts, it makes me sad. Nada is much better than that. I am excited that july got as far as he did, but him vs MC isnt going to be close. | ||
