We've yet to see him really shine in SC2 ![]() And then there's posts like these (no offense bro) which make no sense in relation to the topic. This thread is about who the CURRENT zerg king is. We are not asking for a selection based off what someone MIGHT be able to do in the future. | ||

he hasn't accomplished anything worth noting in the past, and he's on a slump as big or bigger than nestea's right now so I don't even know where people are getting these ideas from based off of results and all-around matchups it's definitely gotta be july, nestea, or losira, although losira has only managed a code A championship so I'd have to give nestea the edge however, I'd have to say it's pretty empty right now since zergs really aren't doing so hot in any tournaments lately | ||

He's added new styles and just doesn't 200/200 and attack every game. And consider the state of zerg in big tournaments as others have said. He'll show wins soon I think. | ||

Again people are missing the point of this thread. It's asking for the current zerg king, not the future zerg king. And based off results, only Nestea,July, and Losira can really be given the top votes. But since I haven't seen enough of Losira, I'll have to hold up on him for a bit. | ||

He is not there with it yet but he is gradually getting out of his usual instant gg and attitude. | ||

As a spectator all I can say is that it is awesome to see the new style and it is much more entertaining then the sit back and macro style of the past. I salute the zergs that a pushing the change of style for sure, simply awesome. | ||

But I watched both mlg and tsl, and i'm not sure what kind of results you are trying to pull up here. 7th at mlg (which isn't that bad all things considered) and knocked out of the first round of tsl (given I'm not a fan of crunchers play). Idra is no doubt a great zerg, but his results have been lacking and it's silly to call him the zerg king right now. | ||

As for the poll, I don't think there is one now. | ||

Well I meant he is adding and/or finding new ways to kill protoss which is mainly the problem for most zergs. It won't change overnight but he is gradually becoming better with that MU. | ||

Where in this thread do you see a question asking who is trying to figure out zvp and is becoming more and more successful with the matchup? Your post is irrelevant. I'll say this again, this thread is asking for the current best zerg, and with the results idra have posted, it's ridiculous to call him the best, though he is pretty high up there (top 5). | ||

Other zergs are figuring out protoss as well(see Losira's 12-3 record in last 15 ZvPs). | ||

The best zerg based off results and play is nestea, there are many that follow closely after but to say idra is the king of zerg is laughable. NesTea recent results like losing to Goody? We're not talking about 3 months ago we're talking about now. NesTea and Losira have been practicing together and with MVP and Younghwa for a long time and haven't shown anything particularly impressive recently. You can't be a Zerg king right now when your results are declining and you aren't showing anything really impressive. | ||

Watch his stream and see how his unit and minimap selection are pinpoint precise. His apm is as effecient as Miniguns. If anything's cost him games, it's his decision making and general unwillingness to take quick and easy wins. | ||

Idra isn't far behind but gets cheesed/all-in and mainly early game which cost most of his losses. | ||
