EPTHis mindset was always that of Starcraft: BW in that all games should be macro games, and the person with better mechanics will always win. He has already mentioned in an interview that he believes Starcraft II caters to the more aggressive players. I just don't understand why he won't take that to heart in his practice and playstyle. I think he'd be incredible. His mechanics and game knowledge, in conjunction with his potential sick ass timing pushes, with his above average micro, they would all lead to incredible success for him. As he plays it for a job, I just really wish he would atleast experiment, or accept the idea.

Pretty much how idra loses to T since forever. I wouldn't even say it's high risk. you might be a little bit behind if zerg easily holds it off (which happens rarely) but terran can always come back. Also, terrans can always give up on the rush as soon as they see zerg is prepared, thus losing almost nothing. if idrA would have held off that rush he still would have been behind. Shame on jinro for abusing such infantile mechanics | ||

Its like hearing Dezzer on IdrA's stream. To answer - no. This is the way you are suppose to play. No question about it. | ||

Everything else a terran does; however, is not very high risk. | ||
