You don't make 40 mutas vs mass marines with a few tanks. It's the basic rock-paper-scissors of ZvT:
Terran makes more tanks -> get more mutas Terran gets more marines -> get more ling/bling Terran goes mass marine -> get infestors
Complete misread by IdrA and he had no excuse for that, given that with the mutas he could see everything the terran was doing. He had well enough time to adapt to his ennemy's composition.
I was in a state of shock after these games and after a good night's sleep I still haven't recovered. I can't believe IdrA would play like this. Sjow had little to do besides a-move in IdrA's base. Sjow didn't do anything noteworthy besides making the most commonly made unit in ZvT.

Sigh...
I'm not sure you understand how rock-paper-scissors work. IdrA gets Infestors vs Tank marines most of the time, just comes out at a later point. His mistake in both one of the bomber games and Sjow games was overestimating how many marines a flock of mutalisks could take out.
Guys I am addicted to IdrA... any game at MLG without him playing is boring. It's even coming to the point where I can't even play SC2, because I just want to watch IdrA play instead. Other streams are boring, but when IdrA is streaming I have to watch it! IdrA you are my drug.
