What the hell is wrong with you people?

The fact that Idra invariably expands immediately and powers drones isn't a consideration at all? If this was Brood War a fast expand vs. rush would be considered a build order loss. Why is the complete predictability of Idra's play not taken into consideration here?



People are so jaded by their hate for Terran, and therefore logic no longer becomes a factor.

Because there isn't anything else to do.

You need to fast expand against a terran to even have a chance.


DIMAGA just beat two Terrans without FE.

To people who're saying IdrA should've gotten Roaches, the problem with that against this build is the Terran already has 3+ Rax w/ Tech Labs so they simply start pressing their D button instead of R and instantly have a giant counter to your Roaches for a quick push.


Idra had a spire going up, the roaches would have helped him survive until muta, and rauders obviously do nothing against muta.

If Idra loses 2-0 there is a good chance he will not make it to the playoffs if Strelok wins as well.

No, you cant be out with two 2-0 wins. Tiebreakers at worst


they said that he wasn't 100% sure to go through, so ?

i guess it could come down to tiebrakers, but count, if Idra goes 0-2 now he'll be 4w-2L and 2-1 series. That can be topped only by 5w-2L. I think it's impossible that 2 player gets that in one group. So if they are even i guess tiebraker or some sort of funky stuff, but Idra is quite ensured.

He will advance because he will have the same win loss difference and won the head to head against strelok. What other tie breaker would there be? Except of they play a tie breaker rematch or something weird like that.

I hope Idra wins so he can go back to CJ entus and flash his 15k from SC2 not SC1.

If he built roach he would have had a much worse economy, would've spent gas on roaches so when the mutas come out there's only 2 or 3 of them. Terran already had 5 rax on two bases, throw up a few turrets and you're set.

Not saying this build is unbeatable, but... there's no apparent counter to it.

Those terrans were terrible, and pretty sure Dimaga fast expanded against Sarens.

Remember also he doesnt feel pressure to be eliminated in this game, hes up 2-0. I bet if this was like an elimination match, and he lost, he'd be nerdraging.

But yes also, being the smallest guy in the room, hes holding back his bad manner.
