Idra is a fucking joke, Zerg isnt imbalanced, Idra is just sucha looser. Other zergs are having success because they are "lucky" or because their opponent "suck" but wait when these "sucky" opponents ROFLstomp Idra they are just imbalanced.... what is wrong with this guy?

Honestly, Idra can only blame himself for having 1700 minerals, 200 gas, and no drones on extractors at his 3rd and 4th

when he died he basically still had 1k floating, and bad rallys


Yeah, except that he lost hatches/queens so he couldnt actually spend the money due to having no larva, and even if he could have 1k worth of hydras or whatever wouldn't be enough to save him anyway.

I really feel for Idra. Throughout the game I definitely thought that the protoss had a much easier time and that Idra was outplaying Naniwa. Despite that he still lost, due to the 200/200 death ball. Pretty fucking boring.

He really played much better than Naniwa, maybe he could try a different approach, but playing zerg is really unrewarding in these type of maps, especially against protoss.



60 food ahead at one point, protoss just sits on one base and a-moves.
i don't know why people say hydras are good vs protoss, they lose to stalker balls really bad.


yeah, so protoss should move out with 60 supply behind and a weaker army.

There were way more stalkers than hydras towards the end. IdrA was gas blocked really badly. Not sure why he was missing those drones at the gas. I didn't see the whole game so there might be a valid reason for that though.

Anyone else notice how Idra was really mineral high towards the end? It's because 2 expansions (the ones near the lower xel naga tower) both had gas geysers with extractors but Idra didn't put guys in the gas so he couldn't make the hydras he needed to.
Only the winner deserves to win.

On a serious note: Protoss 3 base turtle into colossi stalker is the most common strat on that map. Zerg deals with it by :
a) basetrading (EG. machine vs Nani on SP)
b) researching drop (Moon vs Squirtle on SP).
c) lategame baneling bombs using (showmatch between Morrow and nani)

Idra did none of it and looked 3 months behind on the metagame.

Edit: Idra not putting worker on gas in his fourth and fifth base lost him the game. His second expansion was a dubious choice: it should have been elsewhere.

Because if you don't then you get fucked up by colossi. You either make too much just so you have a chance, or make too few and you instant lose.

wp'd by nani grats dignitas.

It's really hard to hit that "correct" corrupter number. But sadly Idra went way to far there. That was probably around 20 hydras worth of useless corruptors.



He cannot blindly predict how many colossi will be present when the engagement happens. If you go too light on the corrupters you will lose more often than when you go too heavy on the corrupters.

I find Idra's decision making regarding when to engage the toss in a fight is really weird.

what? he gave up a base to get some open field there. what else can he do? run away vs blink stalkers and then fight in the same situation (an open field) with even less units? now THAT'd be really weird ^^,

yea, even as a toss player that game was kind of depressing. i could see it coming from a mile away, but i did not want to believe it. wonder what the nani's upgrades were at though, that could be a reason why his stalkers simply wouldn't die.
champagne for my real friends, and real pain for my sham friends.

Despite being terran,I can really get the frustration Idra faced,I mean I thought he was one step ahead of naniwa the whole game, and u can't just NOT build corruptors or the toss will roflstomp u with colossi. I think Z has to start becoming more aggresive early game vs P, or he will get rolled over eventually.

Idra said it himself, he just isnt practising enough because he doesnt like the state of the game atm, that mineral/gas difference wouldnt not have happened to him if he practised more, reguardless if P deathball is bit stronger, he could have had so many more hydras/roaches out for the last counter attack and just walked over nani
The naniwa - Unit of protoss skill, defined as the number of gates you build off of one base
