at least one guy gets it, thank you, you preserved my faith in humanity

The cool part is that he didn't lose any mutas at all pretty much.

yeah not losing units in a battle, that sounds like imbalanced Terran. If there aer ppl claiming that this is new and unbeatable or anything, PM me, and i'll look up some of my older reps which were played before all this magic-box nonsense was posted on TL.
Idra didnt go for mutas since he quit Zerg in sc:bw, now he does and wins 2 games, everyone is going insane

Nice technique, it will dominate for a while. After terran will adapt and it will be back at finding something else, it's fun to see those game. gg Idra and Tarson.

well here's a pretty obvious solution; if you opponent is going 99% air, you should at least have more than 4 units that can shoot up


Yep that was just the thing, T went for this ultra ground heavy, and then just rely's on a couple of thors for all his anti-air.

This just means that with PURE mech he will have to more slowpush with turrets and some marines from like 1 rax

Or just get some bio support or viking support instead of just rely'ing on 4 units in total.

When one player devotes his full resources to air while another player only devotes half his resources to anti-air, then obviously the first player will win, if their macro is equal.

The series was over after Game 3. Tarson tilted. I doubt he has ever seen that before.

it was Game 4.

tarson looks like a giant but a very emotion one. IdrA looks like an ant compared to Tarson. If a BM happens, he would get crushed

Nice job idra!

Thats a prime reason why we need to stop spamming our sc2 forums with useless stuff. There was a thread on the muta v thor spread since mid beta and tons havent seen it. Good info is getting drowned by gossip and whines.

Anyway, to be fair its not super common yet and he did it on a huge stage so big respect to idra. Its one thing to know a theory, its another to practice and execute it in a big game.



ACtually, tons of people did see it, but they preferred to think they were so RIGHT in their own balance and skill assessments of the game, that a lot of Zerg refused to consider muta versus thor mech at all.

it was said many, many, many times over the course of beta that mutas were good against thors with spread, but once one top tier zerg player complains and whines that the match-up is broken, the rest simply start to jump on the bandwagon refusing to try things in the game.

it happens. mostly cause what you said - things get drowned out by whines of imba, much like old zvp brood war imba threads, where people refused to acknowledge they could build reavers late game...lol. same idea here.

IdrA pretty much perfectly countered Tarsons strats/builds, which probably wasn't too difficult for him given the poor quality of Tarsons strats and builds.

I never saw him BM in interviews or in public. Its just his in-game persona that is BM.

He's coming home to go straight to Raleigh to then cast MLG at the end of next week. He needs to read up on how singers take care of their voice in between shows.
