THERE WAS A HIGH SENTRY COUNT. Didn't you see all the forcefields ? comon dude SC2 is NOT balanced

Tell me one protoss you think would've won in that situation except MC. Also IdrA didn't handle the situation perfectly at all.

Of course MC owns idra, just as he should. MC is the better player and races had nothing to do with it.


Yes but MC made choices that Idra's 3 hours a day reacted to perfectly. I don't know what you're suggesting the other 9 hours are supposed to do. I can only presume MC practices his Blink micro in the other 9.

I mean yes stalkers counter roaches but a 70 food lead with more upgrades and he loses decisively.


MC was 0-2 and idra was 0-1.


I wasn't aware that that 1 attack upgrade gave Protoss the ability to best 70 foods worth of extra units.


I did not factor in Blink or Burrow/tunneling Claws. Without that Blink micro that would have been much closer.

idra played so fucking well in both games but why even try. Why even try if there's fuckin shit like this. Just Forcefields and blink. FUCK EVERYTHING.

And last but not least I'll take a fucking shit in this stupid "unit counting station".


User was temp banned for this post.


So is this the purpose of being a fan of Idra ?
This thread looks like a place for trolls bitching about balance and not for people to support Idra, i mean i like Idra but this thread should be closed, or atleast 70% of people that post here should be perma banned.

Ummm...the 70 food lead hardly mattered. Roaches costs half the amount of a stalker but the same supply...and my report button...holy shit i just used the fuck out of it.

It did matter, but Idra sat back and let MC get about 6 more. He needs to keep up the pressure/kill more colossus if he doesn't wanna get rolled.

Idra played well, yes. The problem was, his teck and upgrades were behind MC in the final engagement. Idra also had some questionable decisions trying to burrow under three layers of force-feilds. I'm loving Idra's fanbase reaction to his loss though, they sound just like him. XD


Don't you see why this is whats broken about protoss? MC opens with a HEAVY HEAVY HEAVY tech opening that does NOTHING and STILL ends up with a more cost effective army and better upgrades.

The DT's:

- Still gave him map control
- Made idra's investment in early roaches/lings completely useless
- Forced spines/spores
- Ended up killing 5-6 drones anyway..

so it wasn't as bad as it could've been had idra gone a more normal route.

He needed earlier and more hydras in game two and he didn't build an infestor in either game. Blink stalkers are good against masses of low-range, low dps units(especially when you fall behind in upgrades).


Neither games lasted long enough for infestors.... they take SOO long to get out, especially with Pathogen glands being a MUST. game 1=corrupters being way more important to get b4 infestors. they couldnt even get out in time when he had 4 bases and PERFECT macro. game two didnt last near enough for infestors.

I think zerg needs buff, so that trash protosses like mc don't get wins they don't deserve

I posted a summary of the each game in the series in my blog, but I'll paste over my thoughts on the series here.

Yet again, MC defeats IdrA and eliminates him from the tournament. If IdrA had implemented some infestors or drops in these games, I believe the results would have been different. Protoss units are simply too strong in the right compositions, and engaging in a straight up fight will almost never allow a Zerg to win (if they don't have infestors, of course).

Atleast IdrA shown improvement in attitude towards taking on Protoss, specifically MC. If you listen to his comments prior to MLG Columbus he said that the one player he fears is MC, so I don't think the loss will come at a shock to him a month later.

He tried and played well, just needs to learn to play against the mass stalkers with blink better as his roach hydra builds aren't holding up too well against the top tier Protoss players.

WELL FUCK GUYS LETS JUST COME IN HERE AND SHIT UP THE FANCLUB

Please, this is the IdrA fanclub, not the Balance Whine Thread. What we should be saying is that IdrA played a couple fantastic games and nearly won them both, not herp derp I'll whine about balance in the IdrA fanclub just because IdrA doesn't think the game is balanced.

None of you are good enough for balance to matter. Please calm down before you post.
