diretide is fun

Zerg was absolute trash at the time but the only race you could get away without micro and just faceroll

Bro i remember when you could drop rax before depot and terrans would just pull 5 scvs and run in with a marine and start fucking you up. That was cancer

i still believe for almost all of WoL it was impossible to lose TvP on a 2 player map if you went 1/1/1 and had good control

but one vortex in one GSL finals game (something that happened in literally 0.01% of PvT) and Terrans up in arms

bitch you aint zergs you aint got no claim on whining about vortex

Terrans have always been spoiled no doubt. You forget to inject larva before 15 minutes? Haha you lose. Forget to drop mules? Oh nice this gold expo just came time to build 50 marines

I hated PvZ too once people figured out how to do the Stephano early 200/200 roach push at your 3rd base

but I also spent hours theorycrafting builds that would only work on a specific matchup on a specific map whose only real purpose was to tilt a better player as hard as possible while losing

I'm not one to talk

Nothing will top two moments for me

Jinro beating ogsmc in GSL semifinals(?) (Terran foreigner sticking it to dominant Korean protoss player against all odds, mc falling apart by g3)

Boxer losing to MMA(?) in the semifinals of some MLG tournament as boxer passes on the torch to the incumbent, his own protege

Both around like 2010 I forget

To answer your question directly id play hydras usually (roaches if i wanted to be aggressive) and get 3-4 expos up fast. Toss would turtle on 2 bases and try to punish with pheonix void ray then switch into collosi to shread your hydras. The ultras dont even kill anything you just use them to bulldoze their base because they took no dmg from collosi

Historic moments, with like followup moments going to it was halluc and that one guy in GSL that was renowned for being a cheeser

Fruitdealer was my hero when he won. I think at the time there was only one other zerg in the top64 and he just floored the terrans in that tournament and then fell the fuck off and never won anything again lol
