That Ret, like Idra, plays too passively.
However, if anyone's been watching Idra's stream recently you would know he has been changing his style up quite a bit and trying diff things such as nydus drops and overlord drops too!
People who say that seriously underestimate how fucking hard it is to attack into an army with range 9 collosus and 6 sentries will almost full energy for forcefields. No, I think people do understand that. But IdrA and Ret know by now that you can't just outmacro the protoss deathball and win in a direct fight. I don't care about imbalance, they need to either stay away from the maxed range to allow themselves more room for infestors/broodlords, or constantly be attacking when maxed. Everyone knows how it works by now. Obviously it's hard, but they don't have a choice. That's how the game has to be played. OR Blizzard can just realise that this is retarded and fix it by doing a few buffs and nerfs. How about NO. Zerg players are slowly discovering how to stop the Protoss from getting their successful deathball up. Macroing and attacking it head on is NOT the way. The sooner Zerg players understand that, the better. I don't want SC2 to be a game where every unit sucks as much as every other unit so screw nerfing
What about an overlord speed buff? It seems sort of silly that we have a 100/100 speed upgrade that puts our dropships on the same level as Battlecruisers and Carriers.

TSL spoiler Goody vs Naniwa:
+ Show Spoiler +
So Goody just tilted quite heavily in his TSL games and did some crazy stupid things. He lost in the end, obviously.
Don't be like him, IdrA. Don't do stupid crap when you're behind. It is just painful to watch. Stick to what you do best.
Stay sharp.

I really hope IdrA streams again today. Really enjoyed his streams on Friday and Saturday, and I'm sure he enjoys streaming for ten thousand people every day.

What about Protoss finding out that they can do some sick harass while still sittin' turtlin' on 3 base?

I love Idras stream, the only thing i miss is when he mixed up some streams with mic on instead of music, that was gold :D

Well with the money given by commercials for 10k viewers, I would happily stream myself being stomped and BMed all day every day... So while crushing every opponent, no reason he wouldn't.
By the way hey IdrA, really love your play, but not much the fanclub thing so I'll use this only post here to declare: for me, the final achievement as a zerg player would be to beat you in a macro game  (not like it will ever happen nor will you read this, but who cares)
"See ya" on your stream ^^

I would love for IdrA to stream right now. No picture, just voice and commentate the TSL...

Idra commentating TSL would get more viewers than day9/husky.
GO idra!!
btw, mondragon vs cruncher game 2 just ended... this game alone is a proof how ridiculos Protoss is.
I think we need cannons nerfed or lings buffed.
Colossus range upgrade removed
Colossus speed same as Thor
Colossus do friendly fire
Those changed would pretty much fix zvp.. removal of warpgated would make the gameplay more interesting to ofc.
User was temp banned for this post.

You really have NO knowledge of the game whatsoever, do you?

Feeling like a protoss will take this TSL :X

Idra just tweeted " "
I guess he was on Mondragon's side.
Edit: Misconstrued the first time.

When will you fix the typo in your signature ?

These games just left a sour taste in my mouth. Cruncher did not play well by any means. We did not see any micro, anything special macro-wise, he just went air first against zerg and produced units, and right-clicked Zerg's units. And he won despite being outmassed, out-APMed and outmicroed.
And he had the nerve to cannon rush as well. That's just bad taste.
