Huks ZvP makes me cringe when i watch it. I havent seen any improvement yet on that, maybe some inhouse help from TLO is needed?

I think the current consensus is that you can call a close proxy rax a "Maka rax" even if it's not in a retardedly visible position.

This was just an example of how bad blizzard is.

User was temp banned for this post.

Cry more fanboy. It was a great strategy, well executed, and fun to watch. Idra isn't going anywhere he is gonna to stomp people in the losers bracket.


Yeah, three times in a row, it gets more and more fun! *sarcasm*

Kinda like watching Idra do the same builds over and over again, right?


Zerg only has 2/3 (depending if you could hydra as early) early game units.

IdrA would love to use more, but nobody wants to pass 10 minutes vs him, he's forced into it.


Zerg has enough openings to stop blink stalkers. And obviously players wont play into Idra's strength which is his macro. To be great learn to adapt on the fly, something that Idra is missing.


lol, yeah, he should've magically adapted to the build and build hydras somehow. You have no idea what you're talking about. None, zero, zilch, nada. Zerg is forced to continually make units to defend, thus delaying his lair/hydra den/hydra production even longer while the protoss 1 bases.


Actually, if you want a perfect analysis of the series: here it is.
Although being a superior player, IdrA lost the series off two crucial miscalculations(and mistakes, one being a perfect bait by Nazgul.) Idra COULD have gotten Hydras or Lair in game3 but due to his early bust pressure failing(losing his entire army) he was forced to invest all resources in reinforcing his dwindled army or he would've lost sooner.


Oh, no doubt. I'm well aware of IdrA's poor decisions in games 1 and 3 as I've talked about in earlier posts. But it all accumulates. The worst part is even with the early aggression fail and loss of roaches he probably still was ahead until the final confrontation where he had his army split. I'm curious as to what was IdrA's reasoning. I think he felt Nazgul was pulling away and he wanted to sandwich him, not expecting Nazgul to return to the high ground since IdrA had already pulled his drones away.


Yeah that got me thinking a bit as well in the end. It felt like IdrA just threw in the towel at that point. He was going for a base-trade as he sent majority of his army to Nazgul's base but as he was drawing closer to the base he should have realized all the stalkers were elsewhere. Nazgul went for the backdoor and IdrA just threw the other half of his army away instead of trying to claw his way to victory. He is quick to insult HuK for doing something "stupid" like Mothership rushing yet he easily taps out like this in the final set. Ironic Gracken is Ironic.

What does w/l ratio have to do with anything? Some people practice on the ladder instead of cheesing an 80%+ w/l ratio for epeen like DeMuslim or something.
