MC spent 850 minerals to close Idra - who had hatchery building:
1) Cancel hatchery (lose some minerals), move drone to another spot, build - mine - win.
2) Type gg, exit.

It was like Idra wanted to make 2-2 (for fair game), but then he got raped. Plus game vs mma...

That's the full side of the glass.
But a progamer of IdrA's calibre, should not be happy with just that.

The saddest part of this is the dude is too stubborn to change. His attitude is always going to be *his* attitude. People can point to the DTs, and surely IdrA will point to imbalance, but the simple fact is all this started with IdrA's early GG vs MMA. IE: IdrA's long time habit of making mass assumptions and then getting raped, then getting angry, then getting raped some more.

He can talk about how his anger motivates him to do better, and it's true, it does, to a point, then he eventually implodes. It's what IdrA...does.

I've officially lost hope that this cycle will ever change. The Gracken was a myth, there's only Greg.


Agreed.. I really love to watch Idra play when he plays well, but this habit of his is destroying him and it's just horrible to watch when it happens because he plays awful when he's on tilt. I've really lost hope now as well.. Unless I see some news of Idra having an amazing turnaround in attitude, I no longer think he can be the best zerg.. Really sucks, but it's just not possible when he does stupid shit like he did today..
I totally lost that on purpose

He had quite a few after the colossus engagement, but the stalker count was too high. Blink stalkers are still pretty good against roaches.

Idra looked unstoppable at the start of the tourney. I hope he gets his head in the game for the NASL and wins it all.

He had plenty of roaches early on, when there was still colossus on the field, MC went pure stalker, and you don't need the roaches anymore really.

if he's so obsessed with his race being weak, he should switch to P or T. Like lower his self-respect a bit.

Yeah so Zerg doesnt beat protoss. which i think this game explained some balance. 5-2 base desperate measures and goes for Dts and mass stalker against are suppose to be best unit against blink stalkers and loses.


Ehm no it didn't, this game showed that Idra is incapable of remaining cool and rational in tournament play, and instead focuses on the easiest and cheesiest solution to end his misery ASAP.

The last game was close, the DTs were a desperation move from MC, but the fact that Idra over-made Hydras which are shit against any unit if it doesn't have a tank eventually killed him. (There's a reason it is called Roach/Hydra and not Hydra/Hydra)

There is no useful balance talk that can be generated from those games, and if you see me as a blind anti-Idra boy then read my earlier posts and you'll see that I'm a strong believer that Zergs are in fact underpowered compared to Protoss, but these games were just TERRIBLE in all possible ways.


Roach that is armored DOES NOT beat Stalkers. It doesn't matter if it's a "tank" when Upgraded Stalkers do more dps to the Roach than the Hydra.


You need to play more Zerg if you don't think Roach counters Stalkers.

Stalkers are shit against Roaches, and whenever you get to the late game the HP buffer is what you want from the roaches, not their range or damage. (that's the Hydra's role)
with proper blink macros stalkers obliterate roaches, that's the issue, infestors hydra ling does well instead

He has a mental block against really good protoss players, where he goes into the game with an attitude that he is already defeated.

This reminds me of May GSL finals I think, NesTea vs sc_FoU I think,
Every time SC_FoU bunker rushed 3 games in a row and got owned. The first fucking thing you learn in bronze league Protoss is how to defend Zerg rush, zergling, Roach all, etc. What a waste of 2 games.

First day MLG Idra had a complete different mindset then today's for some reason. Idra really beat himself today unfortunately.

Idra dude, just keep playing till EVERY drone is dead, its your fucking right in a competition even if you wanted to stand up and let him Aclick everything. Stop giving up games in snap decisions, YES you know the likely outcome but 1 simple miss micro or bad engagement and your back on top of the game SO quick. Stop thinking all these players are invincible to mistakes.

He says that blizzard will patch it eventually, and then it would be silly to switch to a race that doesn't fit him as well when they buff zerg.

Should've been bomber! So, more importantly most Koreans who came end up winning, this throws a wrench into all those who've been saying sc2 isn't like sc1.

Koreans own white dudes.

Idra would've had a better chance at sixpools. I don't believe protoss can have expansion + saturation + stargate + void ray + wall/sentry/FF by then.
Something witty here....

So disappointed with IdrA this MLG. He looked unstoppable in day 1 and showed great play against MC. He then first throws one game against MMA, and then just gives up against MC. The same MC he 2-0'ed on the first day. He didn't even try to do the new great tactics he used in day 1. I'm lost on words of how disappointing the games today were. Where was the IdrA who won IPL, was 4-0 in his group and seemed like he would take MLG Columbus?

I hope he can turn this around.

At this point I just hope MC doesn't win the tournament. Cheesy protoss doesn't deserve all his tournament wins.
