I hate how you replaced ret and Idra with "zerg" and "terran".

yup. Idra is touted for having great macro and mechanics. That entails playing defensive perfect until its time to push. Zerg has more stress imo and most zerg players will agree.

Ghetto battlereport below, scold me if I missed anything.

+ Show Spoiler +
Ret open three hatch lurker, Idra opened on rax expand on fighting spirit. Ret places his lurker/ling out front of idras base in the center (across the bridge) and grabs a second main for his third as well as hive tech. Idra goes for a standard 3 tank + 1 vessel push and ret delays it beautifully across the map. By the time the push hits hit main bridge, defilers and consume are out and he holds it off. Ret takes a 4th (the natural of the main he took earlier) but quickly loses it when he can't reinforce between his two bases because of the contain. Ret retakes it though, and idra's drop against ret fails when the dropship is picked off by scourge. Idra has a third up and is going for a 4th, but ret has his tech tree done. Ret struggles to push back out across his own bridge, but the contain is strong. 12 lings sneak into idras 4th and kills the cc before it finishes, and then forces the cc at idra's third to lift with the help of a defiler. With Idra's main and nat presumably mined out and with a 3rd that's being harassed constantly, ret takes a 5th and 6th base and pushes out with a ton of ultra/defiler/ling, killing idra's army in the center and winning the game.

Right, turtling up when playing Bio TvZ is the right thing to do.

He only did it so he could humiliate ret live, and then lost.

i think he asked because he knew that hes streaming and he wanted to show that he will win i doubt that he challenge him to make us happy it was because of his ego more than feelings to be good to community
Terrible OP. Improve your posting or next one is a perma-ban.

I love how the entire broodwar community comes out of nowhere to watch ret versus idra. I think his stream increased by 300 people as soon as idra accepted Ret's challenge.

hmmm, villain terran, that's not a bad nickname at all.

I'd sell my soul to see Day[9] commentating a BO5 between Ret vs Idra.
