    That's not Korean. That's Chinese. "Dao Ke Dao" is the first three characters of the Dao De Jing. It's the first half of a sentence to which the second half is, "Fei Chang Dao". The whole sentence reads, "Things can go in many ways that are not the usual ways." As a Chinese-speaking person I look at that name and think, prepare for "out-of-the-box" play.

      I heard him address this accusation in one of his live-steams. He claims that rushing in too quickly to finish off your opponent is a good way to lose your army to a desperate counterattack where your victim manages to get a Disrupter into a perfect flanking position, or you didn’t realize that he built a Dark Shrine in a corner of the map until your Roach army is getting chopped up by Protoss Ninjas and your Overseers are halfway across the map.

    Now I just cannot wait for him to try using a warp prison and 4 adepts to kite queens or marines around an enemy base. Using that scouting probe and the warp prisons power field to power them to heal up the adepts on the enemies side of the map. Put those shield batteries in strange hard to reach spots since they don't need pylons.

    I think this is what he was trying to do. Creep provides vision. Spread creep in random spots on the map, you have vision of just about everything. Use the nydus network and vision to spawn worms anywhere on the map. I THINK that was his original idea with the nydus and creep.

    道可道 is a phrase from Taoism
    It means any truth that can be understood by us mere mortal, is not of any deep importance

      that is a paradox where the conclusion invalidates the premise;
      to know that something is or is not "deeply important" requires that "mere mortals" were able to determine if it was, since there is no other intelligent life that could also assess that "truth".

    Here we have lowko speaking English with a Dutch accent while speaking Chinese in an English accent when pronouncing the blue player's name. Language-ception I love it 😂

    My strat I've had for 2 years is dropper-lord a queen to creep up the opponent's minerals. I just don't like playing pvp modes.
