According to Heosat of TLAF in this thread, TLO has "permanently" switched to Z.

Are there any deep lying reasons behind his decision or is TLO just displeased with the current T matchups? All in all I approve his switch though as I think that Z currently gives more room for deviant play styles. Terran on the other hand is more the race for timing pushs.


I think you nailed it on the head well.

Dario has always felt that Zerg suited his play style the best and now that the early game options in Terran have been restricted he decided it was a suitable time to change. Expect more infestors, ultralisks and counter-attacking zerglings in the near future.



Personally, I'm overjoyed to have more foreign Zerg heroes in Korea, and am looking forward to seeing some inspired play.

terran gets strong he goes to terran, zerg gets strong he goes to zerg

lets see if he will stick to a race

not dissing him in anyway, i actually really liked how he played zerg, i kind of hope he sticks with it this time.

Well I don't think we'll ever see him switch to Protoss, he seems to really hate playing as toss so he might flipflop between zerg and terran.

GSL In-Game Regulations: you must play with the race you registered with (Terran, Protoss, Zerg, Random).

There are two ways to look at it. It either tells you how much better/more fun zerg is nowdays, or it tells you that TLO will most likely spend his SC2 career switching races after a big patch. Personally, I'm surprised a player at his level would switch so suddenly before something as major as Blizzcon. 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 was good zerg before all buffs etc. I think he played terran coz it was easyer.

Zerg was interesting because they were considered to be underpowered, and what made it really fun to watch was seeing zerg players overcome those challenges with skill.

Even though he's played zerg before, TLO changing to zerg right after a patch does raise some suspicions. I just wish he would've stuck to terran now that they're at a disadvantage in the MU.

I guess what I'm saying is, I would've liked to see TLO in a MU where his race at a disadvantage. I feel it brings out the best play in people. Oh well.
