 idra why u have to come and make this no fun.
Axslav playing terran? we have a chance! :D (You should change his race to toss  )
|
NrGSteve not playing? EG has a chance! :D
|
|
|
may chad jones be with you.
|
I hope Idra plays ^_^. I expect some epic games and ♥ EG for putting up 3 zergs :D
|
NrG. fighting so we can see IdrA play.
|
Putting Axslav first? But i wanted to see Idra play D: J/k Gl NrG
|
I really look forward to all of EG's line up now, StrifeCro and Axslav have proven themselves time and time again that they are pretty damn good. Then again, NrG bringing out some pretty big guns as well, this should be entertaining games!

Go go go EG! + Show Spoiler +And NrG .. torn :/
EG 2 : 0 NrG

Axslav, are you going to all-kill? You can tell me in private, just PM, it's alright.
Really liked Vibe's surprise Burrow move there to pick off all the Sentries. That was pretty hot. Axslav has some pretty good blink micro though so all the follow-ups just didn't rock him as much as they should've.

Good luck with that. EG has a sick line-up, and the next map he's vs. Zerg on Blistering Sands.

Idra time! This should be interesting.
|
|
|
here comes idra 
|
|
|
Axslav is a legend on Lost Temple lol.
And man, what a great series this is so far. Losing dde is tough though, he's definitely their ace.
|
Oh snap, NrG putting it on the line here.
Very smart move by NrG actually, give dde the map pick
|
Why does dde get to play again?
|
They used a subcard for Cocao. EG agreed cause they too kind ^_^
|
It's a really smart move, since dde is definitely their best shot against Idra especially with map pick. With this being the playoffs and all its now or never
|
Yea i dont like doing sub shit unless we have no players available. But i justify it since its idra playing xD
I dunno how many games it would take dde to beat idra, but its worth a shot to give him 2 :D
|
With map pick it seriously raises his chances
|
I can't watch so keep me updated! Go dde!
|
dde trying to play straight up vs idra :D!
22 minutes into game 6, idra looking like a beast....
|
|
|
Hahahaha, epic finish to that great game! :D
GG IdrA!
"how the hell did that happen" LOL
|
lol love idras response after that fight.
GG idra takes it home!
|
|
|
Last game with DDE was hilarious. IdrA was as surprised to win as anyone.
|
Hahaha, idra is just about to rage quit and his army magically owns all of dde's thors.... GG!
|
|
|
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That last attack was so hilarious. Broodlings, Zergling surrounds, magic box. GG thors.

lol hilarious ending to game 6.

|
|
Okay, someone explain to me how that money mix terran ball lost to muta / ling with like 5 broods and 12 roaches.
|
Thors were attacking armored brood lords, and dde didn't have enough hellions withhis army to stop the 100 zerglings :O
|
out of curiosity, why keep going mutas? why not switch to roach/infestor earlier... isn't it kind of tuff to deal with pushes when he gets alot of thors +tank+hellion?

brood lords are armored, they do a alot of damage. and there was no other anti air.
|
Idra just won against a million thors with a Muta Ling and Brood Lord attack. It was really crazy, even Idra couldn't believe it.
|
? not as surprised as everyone about that. Terran army was basically thors with very little tank/hellion mixed in. His thors were shooting zerglings, broodlings, spread mutas, and maybe broods.. Doesn't do damage very fast

Xel'Naga has tiny hallways its impossibly hard to play roach on it.

DDE woulda probably won had he not relocated in a perfectly surroundable spot.
|
gg's eg, if idra plays in the rest of the series there shudnt be a problem with winning the whole thing.
Don't really know why idra was saying that shit at the end though, he had 3 way surround with broodlords lings and mutas vs thors tanks and mauraders. No marines for anti air >.<!
|
DDE was on 3-3 on his thors.
It was the fact that he saw so many thors with not a massive army himself that we was like wtf... lucky surround rom him, as someone said before, he was prolly gonna quit after that attack.
|
He won because Broodlords do a shit ton of damage, zerglings and broodlings distracted Thor fire, tanks splashed his own Thors, and Muta count was high enough that Thors couldn't just go attack the Broods.

3-0 I believe.

Essentially it appears that IdrA did everything right.
Tanks weren't sieged.
Mutas were magic boxed
Lings got surround
Broodlords were in perfect position to engage.

Idra was soo gonna rage quit... but then he won the battle... lol
maybe from now on he will gg just a bit slower now... just a bit...

Quite simply what happened was the broodlings soaked all the tank fire and consequently dde's own tanks killed his thors and other tanks. Then the mutas were never bunched at all so when idra held position with those mutas the thors did zero damage.
Thors doing zero damage
Marauders shooting broodlings
Tanks shooting well...his own army.
Don't listen to the gosugamers casters, dde doesn't win that 9 times out of 10, it is completely relient on the move in by the ling/muta relative to the first volley of broodlings coming in.
|
Lol that was some great match and a great showing by dde.

he had no blue flame hellions so kill broodlings/lings
if he had like 10 hellions it would have looked sooooooooooooooo much different

Do listen to what we said afterwards, had their been hellions nearby to deal with those lings things would have come out differently.

I hope there's a replay/vod, I want to see that battle.
|
iso replays
edit: sweet thanks the guy above me
|
I cant wait for the second DDE v. IdrA VoD.
|
I feel it was more due to the Thor's misfire as well as DDE's positioning. If the tanks were sieged, the Thors would have died far quicker. I think that had he either made marines or over-made SCV's - which to his credit, he did - to repair the mech, Idra would have lost, regardless of positioning. Saying that; DDE wasn't expecting the Brood Lords, so his army composition was inadequate for dealing with it (although I feel that the GG timing was a little unnecessary, as he had time to get a couple of cycles from his Factory's, whilst Idra didn't have the minerals and drones to back up his existing army.).
Excellent game anyway as well as an excellent series. Thanks for the great casting!
|
I think the army that was left for Idra would have been able to take out dde's only mining base though. His gold was out, and the bottom right expo was an orbital command lifted from his main (i believe). So by the time the production cycles came through it'd take ages for thors to trek from the left side of his main where the factoresi were located to help defend the bottom right expo.
|
I watched the replay and I figured out why IdrA won that last battle that seemed impossible....right as the broodlords hit dde instinctively unsieged.
Unfortunately for him this is the exact moment IdrAs' lings, roaches and magic boxed mutas came in.
No splash to kill lings ( DDE lost his hellions in a harass on idras 4th) and IdrA was able to clean up.
|
watching the rep again. dde played pretty well, idra is just crazy. ggggggggggggg
|
im thinking it was definitely the mutas. they totally distracted the thors from the broodlords. Let those broodlords just mop up everything else while the thors were killing mutas 1 by 1.
If you notice the whole battle that muta cloud just hung over the thors and just didn't die... at all. power of the magic box thors cant do crap especially with lings around them restricting movement so they couldnt even get to the broodlords anyways.

|
who released the replays?! gimme so i can link to breport.
|
Watching that replay it looked more like dde threw that game away than idra taking it. He was in the lead the whole damn game.
|
sigh, IdrA will just all kill this team...

Uh..what? Watch the series/read the thread before making an inane comment like this.

dde has such a weird playstyle. His macro is very BW-esque and he seems to scroll around the map 95% of the time. Pretty impressive to watch.
