Open up the stream before you go to work, and just leave it on while you're working.
So basically the difference between me and deezer is that I don't need to look at his stream to know what hes doing- Liquid'Ret

I think IdrA should stream his night out with JP (or at least make a VOD of it)

I'd certainly rather see Idra doing well than try to bend the game to his will or whatever.


well he is doing what he has to win. have you seen his recent pvz games? he rarely aims for a long game now.


This actually makes me really sad. Not that he's winning, but how he's forced to do it. I guess that's just the way the game goes. It's really very sad to see one of the best macro players in the world reduced to early all ins, but you've got to do it to beat any good players like Socke.

Not really. Remember that long game against HuK with the hallucinations? Sure, he 'lost' it, but he had already won the game and just got pissed off by the smart bluff of HuK. Filled with harassment and ripping him in two. Same for a recent game against Cruncher.

I don't think he really tries against unknown Protoss players on ladder.

It's still not a "solved" matchup by any means, anyways, but... there's still potential. After all, it's simpler to develop an all-in than a whole gameplan that involves constantly trading units throughout the game.

Spoiler from IPL:
For example, look at Idra versus Kiwikaki game 2. Some zergs have argued that the drop play was all-in. Fast drop play does tend to be all-in, especially in the past, but I wouldn't consider that to be very all-in ish at all. The first drop, he lost a lot of units, did little dmg, and still managed to pull it off in the long-term, anyways. True, he got lucky to get a couple of units snipe a colossus for little cost, but... it's feasible to expect at least a certain amount of dmg from play. Even if protoss responds well and minimizes loss, there will be units he's losing.
So imagine idra's roach drop play forcing trades with protoss as he's spread thinly to defend all bases. Meanwhile, idra can drone up behind that (which he did in that game), build up an army, and slowly tech to infestors, slowly tech to broodlords. With low colossus numbers, infestors are quite good.
So that's a potential way the MU might turn out and not be dumb. Is this hard for the zerg to pull off? You bet. It's not easy to do, and it's not easy to develop, but i think there's potential in idra to be a pioneer in zvp.

Hi Idra fans :D

I accidently saw a poster of the movie "Extrem Rage" starring Vin Diesel
and i think it perfectly suits our beloved raging zerg. Hope you like it!

If you go here and jump to the end it loads the series from game2 (misses game1).

I'm sure they'll sort it out eventually but if you can't wait that long use that solution.

I'm loving IdrA's new ZvP style. It's like watching Mondragon but with better mechanics.
