GAME 2: The same build. Blue flame was defended perfectly, but IdrA follows with mutas against mass-marines from Boxer. IdrA dosn't have banelings, tries to morph on spot but it didn't work. Mutas get killed by marines so quickly... | ||

As for game 2, it was smart by boxer to go mass rins, Idra is well know for heavy muta play and boxer just assumed that idra would stick to the build that he falls back onto 90% of the time. If idra got those mutas out boxer was never going to get out his base with idra fanatic must harass and that would of let idra marco. He already was going to be behind in econ as he lost a lot of SCV. Idra should of switched up his play as boxer is known for his strong timing pushes and i am sure he practiced to have a push ready before idra mutas hit. Nice hold by idra in both games early though, gotten a lot better at holding early pressure | ||

This is a new agressive style never seen before, give the old gracken a while, he'll whip up something and take this tourny, best of luck to IdrA, dominate the rest of that group :D Exactly. That's why we need to concentrate on the things that went well, rather those witch went bad. Not only the results counts. At least not for me. | ||

Making the number of roaches Slush made was a bad move and Slush probably would have lost even if he hadn't lost the 37 drones. Roaches just aren't good enough against Terran. I would probably say what IdrA was doing was more correct, but he just didn't make banelings in time. | ||

You don't have to get the roach upgrades, just get 6-8 roaches when you see this build and with some lings you'll hold easy as long as you don't engage stupidly. | ||

Yea you're both right... what kind of fans ever act like this? I mean, I've only seen fans do the same thing in about every sport I've ever witnessed. That's just me though. Stupid fans. | ||

I concede that a small amount of roaches would be a good idea. However, I think a more productive use of money would be using buildings to zone off areas and taking the hellions out with two spine crawlers and some zerglings. Each roach costs 100 minerals and 25 gas (including the cost of overlords for supply) plus 150 minerals for a roach warren. You're proposing 750-950 minerals plus 150-200 gas for units that will be practically useless once the battle is over. Keep in mind I'm looking at this from IdrA's point of view, a guy that wouldn't willingly waste a mineral to save a dying man in high level games.  | ||

Keep in mind I'm looking at this from IdrA's point of view, a guy that wouldn't willingly waste a mineral to save a dying man in high level games. as long as hellions are alive, roaches aren't useless. they're still good at tanking damage and they're decent against marines, I don't think making a few is that big a deal. but yeah, I'd like it if IdrA built the macro hatch at the natural instead of between main and nat to help choke off vs. hellions but I can see the logic of the other way as well. | ||
