yeah, I studied a few replays. If Grimm and I get some replays from Anahiem, we'll do a guide on it, but from what we've gathered, it is. BTW the opening might not be right, but I use this opening and it goes into the build just fine.

9 Ov
15 Hatch
16 Gas
15 Pool
@100% Pool
-Make Queens
-Speed
-Pull 2 off of Gas (have one mining)

(Now here is the important stuff)
@6:00 (you should have around 100 gas around this time)
-Build Evolution Chamber
-Build Roach Warren
@100% Evo
- +1 Melee
- Put all 3 drones on Gas
- Make the second gas

*Use all of your gas on Roaches, drone up to 35 drones. When you reach 35 Drones, just make Roaches and Lings. Attack any Rocks blocking a 3rd.

@50% +1 Melee
-Lair
-3rd Gas

@100% Lair (Upgrade finishes in line with Lair)
- Make your attack hit. So bring your Roaches early. Lings can catch up.
-4th Gas
-Roach Speed
-Overlord Speed

**Start your third and drone up while you're attacking. Get an Infestor Pit while you take your third, and build a 4th Macro Hatch while you take your third or around that time.

**=This is where it deviates based on scouting,.

Your attack should consists of 16 Roaches and about 22 +1 Lings. I wouldn't use this on Tal'Darim and Shakuras though. (easy to defend Naturals) Instead of Roaches, you can take a fast 3rd with basically the same build.

What's funny is that whenever IdrA does anything semi-all in the stupid anti-fans (few as tehy come) spam "IdrA is a cheeser! He wont be able to macro like Huk!!" and stuff, the mods for his chat all dissapeared.

we require additional replays

but yeah, essentially you do whatever opening you want as long as it gets ling speed at a decent time (start your first gas at 3:40 at the latest), pull drones off of gas when speed starts and put them back in at 5:05. at 6:00 (or at 100 gas) make a roach warren and evo chamber. when your evo finishes, start ling speed and a 2nd gas. make 8 roaches. make lair and 3rd gas. make 8 more roaches. sometime before now, make as many lings as you want to pressure with, at a time you like (this is a personal preference thing but IdrA seems to like around 20 lings). when lair and +1 finish (theyll finish close to each other as long as your execution is good) attack with your lings and roaches, start +2, start roach speed, get a 4th gas, and get overlord speed (get those in whatever order you like, idra seems to like getting the speeds before +2 but again its a personal preference thing afaik). also take your third behind this attack.

since I'm not idra this is all just what I can guess from the few replays I've watched with Whole. we need moar~!

Its actually really fucking solid. The early Evo make you nearly immune to DTs and Stargate play, and if they actually commit hard to DTs/Stargate, your pressure kills them. Its kind of hectic when you're first using it though. I was so used to just scouting and sitting in my base waiting for a Protoss push, the actual Pressure while Expanding concept blew my mind lol.

Also, if the Protoss does a 3gate expand with no pressure, it will seem like your pressure doesn't do anything, but keep in mind that killing like 10 full energy Sentries is really good and you scare the Protoss.

Idra pulls 12k viewers without commentary, with notable people as Ret, Inc, Catz and other great streamers streaming at the same time. Holy shit
Edit: 12? meant 13k

Just watching his stream right now and I'm really impressed by his clean and precissive mouse-movement(and his overall skills obviously).

Sign me up - should've done this a lot earlier.

The entire map is a bad area when you're talking about ultras; the sooner he goes back to broodlords the better.

Deezer was sitting there maxing out on 3/3/3 archon/colossus/zealot

It doesn't matter where he fought if idra let him finish that army, protoss would win.

He tried killing the army, then killing tech buildings, nydus, fungal probes, etc.

Ultra just suck dick, need brood lords to deal with archons

No point in having more than 3-5 Ultralisks. It is map dependent, but if your Ultras are stuck behind others, they're a huge waste of 6 Supply.
