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.


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?



Blink and shooting air is very useful when the zerg overruns you with 2x your population of roaches early on.

Could someone please explain the brackets shortly?
I thought the Finals were Huk vs Idra now. But it seems the Finals are the winner of this match against the winner of the loser bracket?
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.

It's a standard double elimination tournament. The winner's bracket finalist has an advantage in the final match, usually it's a series (so the loser has to win two best of x's while the winner only has to win one), but in Raleigh they only gave HuK one game advantage over Kiwikaki for a Bo7. I'm not sure if they've changed the format.

Don't forget that players in the winner's bracket still go to the loser's bracket if they lose.

forge FE doesn't work against zerg anymore because roaches can shoot buildings without getting hit by cannons now.

Is it a good idea anyway? Zerg can always saturate the expo faster than Protoss...and Protoss won't have any units to threaten the Zerg.

I don't understand why they don't hold off on idrA vs HuK and show some Loser's Brackets matches. I would rather see more matches.

That's beside the point. Stalkers are more expensive because they are a stronger and more versatile unit. Protoss aren't supposed to go pure stalker to defend an early Zerg push so I don't see what you are getting at here.

That made my day.

i was a bit out of touch with sc2 scene, can anyone explain what this means to me? i dont get the pun :F
It's not an sc2 thing, it's a US thing. "The buck stops here" was something President Truman had on his desk in the 40s-50s.

Edit: It refers to "passing the buck," another English idiom.

well

it's: loser of winner's bracket final plays in loser-bracket-final, so we will definitely see the loser-bracket final afterwards; and THEN the big finals....there are plenty games left, don't worry
