Well IdrA's mistake was misreading HuK's build as a 6gate allin when in fact it was a 6gate blink expo. So IdrA was on 3 base vs 3 base for longer than necessary and overproduced units.


Except it was a 6gate allin that IdrA read correctly, but since HuK new IdrA read it, he changed strategy. So there goes that.

Also, I think IdrA could have hold that if he made the spine crawlers sooner =/


If you watched HuK's games in Dreamhack, you would realize that HuK has been doing this 6gate blink expo vs all zergs when he doesn't get to forge expo.


Yeah but you said yourself "when he doesn't get to forge expo", he did get to forge expo this time. Different situations

how is it a misstake? he has to make units if he see 6gate blink, he can't just hope huk is gonna expand and not pressure, because if he droned and huk didn't expand he would have died.. ur argument is invaild.


Look at my response to another poster above.

IdrA overcompensated for a push that was never coming. He had less drones than HuK had probes when HuK put up his third. How does that happen? When HuK set up his third safely and IdrA put up a far fourth without any chance to saturate it, it was over as HuK chronoboosted out 3-0 vs IdrA's 1-0.


IdrA had 47 drones Huk had 40.
To tell the truth....I could beat anyone in the world.

Spines are lol vs blink stalkers. Can't target, stalks do extra damage, and can't chase. Stalk number will NEVER decrease.

I think when he got burrow he had some time to burrow his roaches (most of them were in the red) and heal them before huk attacked again...maybe he could do this every time huk blinked away

Sorry I don't know what I was thinking. I meant to say he does it WITH forge expo to get a fast third up.

c'mon guys. let's just take a breath and pause for a few seconds. Idra lost the bo3, no big deal. he still has a chance in the losers bracket. And he was the only Z left in the winners bracket anyway. So he did really good.

Honest question from someone who's clueless either way: what's the problem with the spine crawler defense? Is it that it's very easy to snipe them while blinking back and dodging their shots?

he didnt play perfectly, he was a little behind in upgrades and was on equal bases vs protoss. i think as soon as he saw blink he needed to tech to hydra or infestors. the game is balanced enough to where if idra played perfectly he wouldnt have lost. Although blink stalkers are extremely cost efficient, he didnt have the tech to hold them off.

Think of it as like facing colossus without corrupters or neural parasite.

When HuK first put up the third it was 40 to 39. Then IdrA's ling scouts the third going down and made 7 drones.

thing about static defense, in any RTS game, is that you can't get aggressive with it (most of the time, cannon rush bunker rush spine rush yadda yadda go away). he was on even base with a protoss, even if he defends it he needs to expand after and investing that much into spines won't help at all, you need mobile units.

it's not allin by huk, if he sees spines he just pulls back and he's in a favourable position

We can use way simple answer. Spines are just bad vs blink stalkers, they deal very low damage, so with blink there is like 0 dmg vs blink stalkers.

nothing to do with the last set of games, but you do realize that protoss is always ahead of zerg/terran when it comes to upgrades....especially when it's against Zerg. no difference between protoss ranged/melee upgrades compared to Zerg...and Chronoboost is awesome.

The thing is that both were on 3 bases, idra had workers lead. So how the hell huk overproduced idra in units when protoss units are more expensive AND huk had better upgrades which means he spend more money on tech than idra did. Grack also had faster 3rd. loloolololloo
congrats on lpaying protoss

yeah youre right, i should have provided evidence. a good example is morrows zvp style, it has fast melee ups into a ling bling infester midgame, he is usually ahead in upghrades unless the protoss makes it an obligation to be head with fast two forge and spamming boosts.
