Yup this. Either people are too much in fanboy-mode to appreciate the mindgames behind this build, or - which would be worse - they just don't understand what's going on.
Either way, guess we'll see a more conservative game from Squirtle on Scrap Station now.
EDIT: as I say it the robo goes down. Macro game incoming.

What to do?
GSL imo, possibility for some actually interesting matches. Squirtle will probably just finish of idra now anyways.

Idra's being a lot more pro-active with his lings instead of relying on his overlord to scout the attack timing, doubt he'll make the same mistake again especially on scrap.

Squirtle scouts with hallucination and gets a robo. Idra upgrading for burrowing roaches.

ye, every day
and all the zergs played like shit except ret in his second set and july+kyrix in their 2nd and third sets (they both got completely outclassed by their opponents in their first), who got through. so perhaps he's not the clueless one in this equation, even though his comment was stupid
keep race balance shit out of this please, we're here to discuss the games not the races

Has idra ever had a decent toss practice partner?

I am confused as to why this surprises you. For a player who has made it to the ro8 of code S and taking a game off of MVP in previous GSL's I am not surprised. I do think he is better then squirtle hopefully Idra wins the next 2  IdrA has trained in Korea for years, I don't think he even counts as a foreigner...yet! The games can definitely go either way, but I feel IdrA's favored.

IdrA no scout

I'm not saying people should "like" it, I'm saying they should respect the pre-planned way Squirtle executed it. Early stargate, fake nexus and good timing.
Anyways, now it's a macro game on scrap, let's see how IdrA does here.

What is all this gibberish while the video is streaming? It's like 10 different languages are being spoken at the same time. I can't even mute it.

I'll totally agree Idra droned too hard, but he would have been countering blind otherwise. Zerg has always been weak to SG play, Squirtle played it well but again, all-ins don't make for entertaining games.
|
idra going burrow roaches
|
Honestly that's such an unlucky draw for Idra, if squirtle had placed 2nd or 1st I think he would of won.
|
Beautiful immortal snipe .
|
Attempting to take the island vs a zerg, now that's just condescending :/
|
idra why you soo good? seriously....
|
It's a shame noone does the LR in this thread... makes me a sad panda.
