Thank you for that spectacular match! That game had me cheering at each and every battle. I am so glad i didn't go to bed after the liquid/digitas series.

Really, really cool game, but as IdrA said, MVP could have walked in and straight up killed him early in the game with his marine/marauder group. I wonder what made him turn around?

I think I was just as stressed watching Idra vs MVP as Idra was playing that game! My heart was racing and I was yelling the whole game.

At the time Team Liquid was trying to recruit IdrA. Keep in mind this was Before Jinro became as successful as he was. IdrA was the scariest foreigner and one of the best zergs in the world (Still is) but the Skill difference between IdrA and other foreigners changed since then. IdrA was far ahead of everyone else. TL would of been stupid to NOT try to recruit him to liquid.

i have a theory about the reason mvp turned around. nestea took an ultra fast 3rd against mvp because he knew he wouldnt be pressured if mvp did his standard push through the backdoor rocks. mvp anticipated that idra might do this and sent his forces to crush him when he got as greedy as nestea got away with in the gsl, but when he didnt find the expo he got indecisive and decided in the end to take the safe option and retreat. the wrong decision in hindsight but probably not a bad one at the time.

Amazing game! Recommend it for all sc2 fans, IMO it was one of, if not the best, game since the release of the beta.

Happy to see some Infestor usage in ZVT, too bad they are so vespene expensive.... Idra needed six bases (!!!) to maintain a muta/infestors army.

True. Also, I don't believe he had a scan ready at the time, so he had no way in deciding if he could attack or not. He knows that he's been spotted quite some time ago when he was crossing the map. If he overcommits and attacks into idra with a bunch of lings ready, then he would be playing really behind. He'd lose his entire marine marauder force, and will have to start making his whole army again, which will have to be marines to defend a bit against the incoming muta harass. Meanwhile, mvp will be unable to exert any real pressure while idra can take his 3rd and 4th. By the time mvp can really move out and do a push, it would be too late for him.

So while with perfect knowledge he should have just attacked, it was definitely a smart move by mvp to pull back. After all, you just poked in to zerg's 3rd. You don't see a 3rd coming up. What the hell is zerg doing? Is he powering lings in anticipation of your push? I suppose the good play would be to have a scan ready in anticipation of such a moment, so that then you can have a pretty good idea of how many units the zerg has. Although, I imagine the zerg can try to bait such attacks by keeping a mass of lings in somewhere that won't be scanned, then pop out and eat the army... Although then again, if mvp knew zerg timings decently, he would be able to feel confident that zerg doesn't have much of an army by the number of drones at idra's expansion. Hmm...

Holy SH*T the game vs MVP was amazing!!
One of the best games on earth and all planets around it. This should be shot into space in benefit for other beings who might be out there...

I don't remember breathing since I saw IMMvp's name on the loading screen. That game was bloody epic. Those FGs were sick. Artosis should indeed get a copy of that replay and cast it. I've always liked idrA and his play. And of course his personality.

Thank you, idrA, for giving us that game!

I was actually thinking about this game last night... I'm pretty sure it won't be half as exciting if you don't watch it from IdrA's point of view. It's unlikely any caster can click his camera around fast enough to catch all the drama.
