Congrats WhiteRa maybe the most epic BO7 i've ever seen on SC2 beta. Great tournament, just makes me sad that beta ends in 7 days, I want to see more epic stuff like this. Got the nerd chills.
Again, congrats HD & Husky and everyone that was behind this tournament.

God dammit how you whine like hell lately, whats up?

Ra just made some insane good forcefields blocking all the infestors(which were Idra's plan to counter collosus).


You talk like you would know me. I'm not Zerg and I couldn't mind less, but thats just bullshit, seeing IdrA playing it pretty good. I'm not saying perfectly allowing Protoss to take 4 base, but come on. Even an APE can throw down such forcefields, do you really disagree there?

Its plain "FFFF"..

Really I'm not taking any credit from white-ra since I really have respect of him and also like him, but thats not about skill, that was about a broken lategame.

How come then that Sen wins every late game fight against WhiteRa ???


Well, people now claim PvZ to be imba but everyone seems to just ignore the fact that idra was 50 food ahead in no time and didn't make any use of it. I still think larvae is a broken mechanic though I agree that protoss lategame army is insane. But than again ... Z can reproduce 200 / 200 much faster than any other race

It seems that idra let pressure get the best of him. He tried to run the zergling by way too soon. Should've pulled back when the zealots went back and focused on the gateway more.

IdrA underestimated White-Ra. His BM just points to an arrogant personality when it comes to skill in the game.



He's bad mannered because he rage-quitted 1 game without gg? Come on... lol.

Jesus, for any one saying 'Look at how much the Protoss army took out with out taking any damage!', think of Protoss vs Terran in SC1. If you attack terribly with a horrible unit composition, you're going to lose really bad. Combine that with the fact that White-Ra throw up some amazing force fields and it's no surprise what happened.

Why didn't he have the infestors+burrow ready when he engaged, better chance of getting in range of Colossi than headbanging a forcefield until it's over.

Great tournament. I didn't like how HD and Husky were so biased though, it got kind of annoying. Maybe next time they could just cast the games without showing signs of who they favor and like more?


I personally agree with this.
WTF was that at the end of the Steppes game "and he rage quits"? He gged, and left immediatly. But sure - those 1000$ lost arent a big deal so you stay happily after the game for some chit-chat - oh wait, then Husky has to be a liar, because he always mentioned how important those 1000$ must be for the players

Great games anyway!

SEn does not win late game fights. Please link me a vod where SEn gets 4 base up and running against white-ra's bases without a fight happening. They never had a 200/200 clash. Also White-rA got really screwed against SEn in a lot of ways early on.. thats why he lost in the midgame.

So what?? Idra should have done the same. SC1 late game armies aren't balanced either..

Too bad the new strategy involving ultralisks plus forcefields wasn't in play in the patch these games were played on. A few ultralisks coulda stomped those forcefields that made all the difference in game 5. And I have yet to see any high level ultralisk replays.

That being said, I'm also surprised and glad WR won.

Yeah, game 6, Idra got impatient and moved in too quick, especially after he saw the 3 cannons, should've danced roaches in and out and taken out the gateway...
