I don't understand why people always say "sick FF's". All u gotta do is make sentries and then drop the forcefields, what could idra have done against that. FF everytime he wants to fight almost endlessly.

Poor play by Idra. Consistantly head butting forcefield with his roaches. Burrowing underneath would have won him both games. This match really demonstrated the gulf in skill between Nestea and Idra.

Ya I think it is a mindset problem... but at the same time IdrA isn't a God either. So many of his fanboys look for excuses when he loses when really he isn't unbeatable (though he is a better player than Minigun). Either way, I'm glad Minigun won!

You got it backwards. Minigun expands, IdrA all ins and doesn't do enough damage with it and is behind.


Yeah, what game were you watching?

I'm pretty sure Minigun was the defender with IdrA streaming in units...

the one where minigun 4gated and then attacked with a zealot and a bunch of sentries


it was an expo 4gate he only gets 4 gates so he can defend the ling roach on xel naga because natural is so fucking big, so protoss do 4gate expands instead of 3 and idra just rallied lings in to gateway units. plz idra fanboys stop talking shit

Did you notice the part where his natural expansion was already up when his sentries and zealots reached Idra's front?

well then why the hell did he push out with a fuckton of expensive units, and build an aggro pylon?

the good old make nothing but sentries and try to kill the zerg build?

I don't know why IdrA decided to attack into that I guess he figured he was good because he took out all the colossus. :/



Don't protoss players always tell zerg not sit there and be aggresive? Idra didn't want him to get the deathball is my guess

This doesnt have anything to do with Minigun, this is IdrA playing the game that worked 3 patches ago

You dont have time to tech switch majorly when you're behind....

Haha, "I don't want to say they were too impressive".

Seriously though, those FFs are there for only one reason, to make Idra ragequit. I'm surprised too. Idra's macro style always seemed to calm, don't know why he doesn't pull his units back, force out a couple of FFs and then hit when sentries are low.

4 base protoss on better upgrades and equal supply? lol.

ye, i mean there is just no way idra could come back no matter what he did. so why try?
rly? He doesn't even try. Minigun isn't a top notch player. He could have pulled a comeback if he tried. possibly

If these games were played prior to the ROOT vs IdrA thing that happened yesterday, I think it explains the hostility IdrA showed towards all the ROOT members.

I think it also might indicate that ROOT beat EG :/

Wow Idra is a head-case. He needs a sports psychologist or something.

You got it backwards. Minigun expands, IdrA all ins and doesn't do enough damage with it and is behind.

you missed the part where minigun 4gated and tried to be aggressive with it, forcing idra to make those units which were basically useless against forcefields


You have never seen a player put on a bit of pressure? That's just good game play. He moved forward and instantly pulled back as he expanded



If it was just pressure, that would have been true. But it wasn't--it was an MC 4-gate, and if IdrA had built any fewer units he would have died after the nexus cancel+warp-in+FF on ramp. What bugs us Z isn't that IdrA's later attack failed, it's that Minigun was able to play an all-in, see that his opponent reacted appropriately, and immediately about-face and switch into economic play without being behind.

Saying "impressive forcefields" is an oxymoron when you spam twenty of them at a time.

i wouldnt say sick or impressive forcefields
placing those forcefields arent really difficult, especially in that choke/position. easy to spam forcefields there
most good protoss players would be able to win that engagement with colossi and that much sentry energy and stalkers
byah!
