Additionally, I used to love eating them, but about 5 years ago I developed an extreme allergy to bananas, and will begin to go into anaphylactic shock if i eat them. normal bananas will kill me. the Bananalisk is like my friggin arch-nemesis. hiding now cuz scared! | ||

In more serious light, it's increasingly obvious that the GSL is being heavily fondled by blizzard. They must have invested a LOT of money in it, and that's somewhat worrying, I hope that other sponsors will make it up, because blizz/activision isn't gonna be supporting this forever. also wallpapered | ||

They should throw a 1,000,000$ USD grand prize tourney some time... they certainly have the money to "throw away" from WoW revenue. That would be balls to the wall epic -- one million to a SINGLE player? | ||

We're pleased to introduce the Grapeling, Applelord, and Bananalisk, and hope you will join us in congratulating Fruit Dealer! -Blizzard should be more careful next time about who writes the post. Clearly not the author of the pic..Looking at the image, which is great, I realized zerg+fruits is best described by rotting fruits with worms. Perhaps an apple with a zerg larva coming from it? That would actually make sense. | ||

Some more T-Shirt-worthy puns would be, "My hydralisk control, while maintaining my economic superiority, both on and off creep will leave you sPEACHless, since said control is excellent." "When you lose to me in a ladder game, I hope you don't BAN AN Awesome map from your map pool, that is the map that you lost to me on, because your loss was not the result of map imbalance, but rather my superior skill." "Orange you glad I didn't make mutalisks, since your entire army composition is marauders and you now would hypothetically have no way of fighting air units should they come?" "If you have the misfortune of meeting me on the ladder when I am playing on my noobie friend's account, I must say that you will find that your rating will PLUMmet as a result of your losing to a player with a much lower rating." "Your tank push was so weak, that instead of forcing me backwards, it actually drew me forward, so basically, your push felt like A PPLE (a pull), in that it had a strength that was negative."

If you get offended by this when starcraft is supposed to be a mature game then you might need to reconsider your perspective on things. Your quotes and the irony of your post are quite good tho Gummy. If you were to do me the favor of doing a search on TL for that word, and then seeing the large quantity of discussion on the matter, I would reward you for your efforts with another fruit pun. Don't click on the spoiler until you've searched! + Show Spoiler + I'm watching you.... Seriously, go search. + Show Spoiler + I am BERRY good at this game called Starcraft II, in which I play as Zerg, so much so in fact that I won the GSL. | ||

After winning the GSL and being traded to TSL, he just seemed to fall off. The Bane-Rain was amazing but his drinking just killed it. I would have loved for a zerg version of iloveoov, total macro zerg machine, someone with flawless abilities conquering a scene with a race that was thought to be useless. Yeah, every bit on news about FD was about 1) His Drinking 2) His refusal to practice 3) Switching Teams. He could have been somebody. | ||

Fuckin ridic) Love those wow tributes. It was an IEM event, I'm pretty sure. I didn't watch it but i think i read that somewhere, once. Could be way off, but that's a starting point if you want to poke around at results | ||

He lost to DRG 2-3 in the finals. | ||

He was 1 game from getting an invite to the Blizzard Cup, and actually got a spot at the IEM World Championships this March (he turned it down, basically already quit by then). | ||

he will forever be my favorite player because back then zerg was badly UP and terran was horribly OP. in a sea of terrans, fruit dealer was the only zerg left, and he managed to win it all. if that weren't amazing enough, he had quit his pro bw carreer because his dad got sick so he helped sell fruit to keep the family afloat. awesome player, i still watch season 1 all the time for nostalgia. | ||

The game he played, oh my, he really did no mistake as I can recall, and that was what it took to win as zerg back then. | ||

Several teams that have competed in the OGN LoL league are crediting StarTale's (the team FD coaches) good performance to FruitDealer and his coaching, so it looks like he's making a name for himself. | ||
