It's not hard to win one game out of plenty(something idra's fanclub doesn't seem to understand)

anyway drewbie vs idra was a good game, I'm happy with who won!

I think you're giving far too little credit to Drewbie. The guy's genuinely good.

that push on those positions on shakuras looks damn near unstoppable? I'm not a zerg player but what can zerg really do once the terran fortifies that position? I mean we saw this against nestea vs mvp when nestea was way ahead on bases and macro.

yeah shows you the complete bullshitness of this matchup. you have to basically hope you guess correctly as zerg while terran rolls its face on the keyboard selecting 1 of 900 successful openings zerg can't be ready for.

One was cross positions, this was close positions. In fact, without alluding to any kind of imbalance, i'd really like to see a replay of a top level TvZ in these positions ending in victory for the Z.

GL iNcontrol, it's up to you now!

Well, Colbi messaged me while i was sleeping, when I woke up I was on the NA server for like 8 hours and IdrA never logged in, we ended up playing early when IdrA logged in. Minigun was online at 2 and so was KiWi but he was playing the TL Open but I was talking to him on Europe and he could come when we needed him. Also my game was played early so there was 3 games available, there was a little mixup with DdoRo and he was 25 minutes late, which we apologize for and had no control over.


IdrA played at an obscene hour and colbi had contacted you guys DAYS earlier not "while you were asleep."

ALso I needed to play kiwi earlier in the week but friday he was apparently completely unable to play and you guys were late to get back to us about lineups anyways.

All in all dude you guys are really tough to work with for clan wars. We are not the first to complain..


We apologize that you think so, and it is not like we are trying to go out of our way to make things difficult for you, but the fact remains that the time for this league is something that is pre-set and while we will try to work with you regarding playing games earlier, you guys knew that if we could not, this was the time we would need to play at. And according to my league guy, we sent in our lineups on-time. I am sorry you felt the need to address this in a public forum, we have felt like we had a good working relationship with EG and we apologize that Ddoro was late. Nobody is going out of their way to try to make life hard for any other team.

It's almost solely based on the terran playing poorly with the push. If they position siege tanks incorrectly so mutas kill some for free, or if they don't use the ramp properly to funnel the ling/bling. If the Terran executes the push well, I haven't seen it fail yet.

That was so beautiful to watch, my nerdcrush on drewbie reaching new heights now.

In all seriousness though, drewbie has shown some really amazing games lately on his stream, specially against zerg on shakuras.

GOOO ROOOT!

Yeah indeed it seems really hard. The only game i saw a zerg win from that position was Leenock's game. Basically by doing that push, the Terran leaves the base vulnerable to counter attack via the main path. Leenock upgraded lair at his expo / 3rd and have zero tech buildings at his main or something. So maybe for now, zerg's only solution is to sac that base and probably going for a base trade. Kinda impossible to attack through that ramp with siege tanks around.

The match against MVP was same positions (except bottom). MVP simply used a much different build and idea. He moved out expecting to kill IdrA's third, but IdrA canceled it and hid the drone. This made MVP think IdrA had a really heavy army, causing him to withdraw expecting a mass amount of units from IdrA. Also, in that particular game, MVP did not attempt to push through the back rocks.

Strong attack from Inc. Should spell doom.
