Check OP.

I don't understand the 'zomg how will morrow deal?' comments. Vikings/pdd/marines/thors are all still in the game. ^^
PS: Watch JD v Light g4 from msl semis last night if you wanna see some MANLY mutalisk use.

They finals are tommorow ?

Ye well... The observer vs. turret in BW can also be considered micro then I guess. But this was considered an exploit.

20+ units, versus 5 units with a horribly slow firing anti air attack that does very little damage. omg hax, units shouldn't spread like that!
|
this mass mutalisk will only go so far, heatseaker missiles are about to get real
|
finally ppl cant make 2 thors and force z's to make another unit lol
|
To anyone thinking that 50 hellions and 5 thors should stand a chance against 25 mutas, get a grip.
|
There is no way that ANY zerg would have won in IdrA's position after that inital helion harass if not for the "magic box" technique. Those hellions would have splashed anything besides roches and the maraders would have decimated those too. I am glad that a solution has been found. At the moment terran mech is not viable vs most good zergs, but I can see more players incorporating hunter seeker missiles, forward missile turrets, and stimmed marines to adapt.

mutas easily outrun seeker missiles

This tournament totally kicks ass despite the problems with SC2.
It seems even though the game is broken in many ways, it's still really exciting.
|
hmm, i think i remembered where this came from, i think it was a Lalush game on Metalopolis where he killed Thors with mutas this way, it s like 3 weeks old or so, i gonna look if i still got that
|
Really enjoyed all of todays games. QL was awesome, too. Can't wait for the finals tomorrow. IEM is such a great event.
|
I see a lot of people saying hsm are going to be used more.My question is WHY?They have a small splash area and cost 125 energy.That doesn't sound like a counter.....

Agreed, while mass muta is good against thors it does not fair very well against mass reactor-marine play that MorroW loves. I'm a pretty big fan of Idra's play, but I think he'll have trouble against a terran like MorroW who isn't afraid to expand. I doubt we'll see it in their games.
That said, it felt like somewhat of a historic game in SC2s fledling history. Now people will finally believe me when I tell them mass muta actually works even against high level terrans.

I've known about the muta spread ever since reading that thread. long before psy or the dude that wrote about the "magic box" said anything. In fact they probably got their ideas from this thread or similar ones. Nothing official was posted about it so it never really took off until now.
Idra's beef isn't with mech play in TvZ, its with the mass amount of options terran has in the beginning and mid stages of the game. Any competent zerg will tell you that once he has his two bases and a spire up, his chances of staying alive increase significantly regardless if he knows about the "magic box" or not.
