That and he's trying to educate his opponents in the fine art of GGing. He wants Terran to learn that they, too, can quit when they're behind.

IdrA's playing extremely safe. To a rather insane degree. It's a good example of his mindset - outside of a perfect scenario he doesn't feel like its a safe win. Contrast it with how Sen was playing earlier (even though, yes, thats ZvP) - he just seems almost afraid to engage until he's got broodlords to just pull a Terran apart, never mind the overwhelming number, the banked larva, the money.

It leads to him slowly grinding people down instead of just destroying their army.

Or players like LGPainUser can learn to GG when it's hopeless instead of dragging it out like this.


You mean like Idra who GGs after being bunker rushed only to have people complain and get mad afterwords? No matter what you do you basically dont look good to the public let him try and come back there have been epic comebacks against Idra many times most notably against Jinro during their showmatch on iirc gsl crevasse? Remember marines dont cost money :p

IdrA threw those brood lords away on purpose folks: he used them to draw the marines away from the planetary fortress so his mutas could snipe it no problem, and drew the marines to his infestors to take them out.


Yep.... 6 broodlords traded for the opponents gold base + all his marines when you're already ahead is a pretty damn good trade.

He believes he's the better player. He has no problem building on his lead instead of going for the kill and risking anything.

As Artosis once said 'When you're ahead, get further ahead.' Until it's literally impossible to lose. It's a BW philosophy not many players in SCII have yet. They'll come around the more it develops.


is "when you can end the game, unnecessarily draw it out for 10+ minutes, and then roll over your opponent despite glaring micro-mismanagement" another sage BW philosophy of yours?

Hope Painuser can do better than that, he's really been on a big slump recently hasn't he ?

Came here to comment on Drewbie's sick micro v. Zenio. Loved it.

Also, go PainUser! Teach the BMaster a lesson.

It's kind of funny that when a player attacks early game when a victory is guaranteed they get criticized for being all-in; then when a player waits for a late-game guaranteed win they get criticized for stalling.

As long as a player believes they can fight, they should keep trying. That's how amazing games are sometimes played out, it happens rarely, but if you GG'ed too early, you'd never see a game like + Show Spoiler +

The weird tension between Idra and Incontrol is the best. I get the feeling they're great frenemies

He traded 6 brood lords for ALL the marines and Painusers gold base.

But keep hating.
