Yep, that's right. The final could be a Kiwikaki/IdrA rematch.
Protoss is the easy race, but I'm sticking with it.

I really think Game 2 from Idra will be the game of the tournament. IdrA has really demonstrated just how much game sense he has. Very well played by both players. If you have just taken out Kiwi as a Z player, you'd start to feel supremely confident in your ZvP play.

Idra only won game 2 cause of the range buff (not counting how well he played considering the harassment).

Anyway

1 stalker = 125/50. 10+4 damage, 160hp.

2 roaches = 150/50. 16 damage x2. 145 hp x2.

Zerg can just spam roaches and lings and destroy protoss until they get robots to deal the splash + inflated damage.

Idiot, why don't you compare a stimmed marauder to a stalker? Or a marauder to a roach? That's not how you discuss balance. There's also this neat ability called force field that splits the roaches in half. So stop posting useless balance whine.

Mods ban plz...

Never seen kiwikaki play. Effin aggressive player man. It doesn't help that he knew that Idra was going to FE EVERY SINGLE GAME. God, Idra's good, but that predictability is catching up with him.
What if I'm in it for fighting?

If this is right, I question the system a bit. How can it be that players who win have to play the better players to advance while if you lose you can pull through the loser bracket with lesser players and still get to the finals.
If I am missing something here, would be nice if someone could shortly explain.


The winner of Idra vs. Huk plays the winner of the losers bracket. I think the person coming from the losers bracket has to win more games, or maybe they only have to win more games if they've played this tournament and it keeps the old record. Seems retarded that you would be better off if you haven't played the guy yet (luck), so I don't know if that's right.
Apologize.

I'd love to see Huk Mothership rush IdrA.

But I think that's wishing for too much.

Kiwikaki just favors agression more then whats good for him. I think if he just calmed down after that cannon on Scrap station he would been in a good position.

Whoever loses in the winner bracket finals gets put into the loser bracket and will play the top player in the loser bracket finals to get a chance for the the grand finals.

this isn't wow, you can't judge balance with a spreadsheet.



Yeah, that's why pro terrans can make 1 marine beat 1 ultralisk if the ultra player is a bronzer.

Think up of a better excuse. Roaches and zerglings are the most cost effective units in the game.

Ok, thank you.

yeh except add maybe 100minerals for each overlord you need, since 2 roach = 4 supply and 1 stalker = 2



Zerg economy is better than protoss especially early on, that's a given.

Ok let's add 25 minerals to them due to the supply cost. And assume they have equal income(lol?)

2 stalkers = 300/100. 160hp x2. 10+4 damage x2..
3 roaches = 300/75. 145hp x 3. 16 damage x3.

Oh you still lose.



Except Stalkers are faster out of the box, have longer range, can shoot air and can learn blink. Honestly, are you god damn kidding me with this comparison?

It's a double - elimination tournamnet. The loser of Huk-Idra will play the winner of the losers bracket up to that point in time. The winner of the losers bracket final match will play the winner of Huk-Idra in the true final.
