I don't know if it's that silly retarded - it wouldn't have worked in the same way if Idra hadn't killed his own destructible rocks. the ~4 seconds it would have taken Nazgul to take them down would have given Idra time to get his roaches back into position.


lol than idra couldnt have done anything against the cliff-blink and could never mine again from that base with constant stalker blinking up and down taking out the hatchery. -.-

Wow, did anyone else know that you could blink up there if you had the middle xel naga tower? I guess idra did since he took down the rocks early...

Well I dont know whats with all the complaining. Im pretty sure Nazgul knew he couldn't win a lategame vs IdrA, so he insisted going with a mid game timing push. His build was very well executed, and his micro was beautiful. Nazgul played great, and there were a couple things IdrA could have done better.

Nontheless, great play and amazingly thought out by Nazgul... Playing into Idras weakness is much smartner, dont play into his strenght just because you get called stupid if you don't. GGz

It was a good thing to take down those rocks, otherwise nazgul wouldve pounded on the nat all day.

Not to mention nazgul could just blink right down the cliff......

I think there's nothing wrong with going blink stalkers, blink is such a powerful ability in right hands, and I must say, it is orgasmic to watch stalkers that take damage blinking one after another, until all resistance has been swept. It is so lovely and nice to watch.

Are you serious? If IdrA didn't kill the destructible rocks Nazgul would've just sat on the high ground and stopped the expansion.

Idra always play's conservative macro.. thats why he used to get abused by Terran reaper, and now by blink. Maybe if he rushed someone people would change strats but they know, he's going to sit back, expand and drone. First map in the losers bracket he should 6 pool :p seriously though, he is an awesome player, but maybe his style is becoming predicable?

Nazgul is such a terrible player.... Pathetic


Haha good thing to say on the site he runs bro.

Yeah. But doesn't change the fact that it was a tad pathetic. Sorry maybe I'm just too oldschool.

why is it pathetic? Idra should have expected the blink stalkers and gotten hydras out faster.

Im not saying its pathetic cos of Idra's response or lack of it! Its just nasty, abusive play to go blink-rush 3/3 in a televised torney! Also imo it just lowers Liquids Cred... But thats prob just me..

can't blame nazgul at all for his strategy going into this series. When you're facing the big dog at the top, you do anything to win. That means anything. Yes, we know who the better player is. If Nazgul was going to beat Idra in this series, he couldn't let him macro up and go for the long game. He knew that and exploited Idra's weakness.

Why is Kulas (and DO for that matter) still in the map pool? They were removed from the blizzard ladder pool a long time ago for being terrible maps. Why is MLG slower to react than blizzard in that regard?

4 gate blink stalker cheese all in every game. If it was anyone else, people would be UP IN ARMS.

"omg 4 gate so gay"

Sure, the micro was impressive... but it was still 4 gate all in on 2 imbalanced maps.

How is Metalopolis imbalanced ?

People clearly forgot about Morrow with his 4rax reapers vs Idra in that finals for euhm.. (Forgot the name of tounament)

Boy, people were raging HARD after that final lolololol :p
Now it's the same shit all over again with NAzguls blinkstalkers. If it wins games, it wins games.

I like drama

Disappointing to see Idra not look Nazgul in the face when shaking hands.


lol are you kidding?


I fucking hope he is. This BM thing is gettign extremely out of hand now. How many rules do you have to follow exactly? Shake hands? Shake hands w/ eye contact? GG in game and not out of game so people viewing the replay don't think you're an ass? Really. Get over it people.


Have to say I agree with you, it's like people are searching for BM everywhere. I wouldn't mind more manners though in some cases. Better manners = better gaming!
