Idra > Sen 2-0 (I love Sen, but I can't honestly think that anyone understands ZvZ as well as Idra does..hoping for an EPIC match, though) Didn't Sen win over Idra before in a Bo3? Its really quite possible that Sen beat Idra before in a Bo3. As well, Idra was most worried about playing Sen. Since Sen is playing most on the Korean server, and Idra said most of the new builds for zvz come from Korea. So he feels like Sen has an advantage.
Look at the players Idra has beat in ZvZ. Morrow is the only legit player basically. Catz is just okay. Idra even said he's just winning that matchup because the other Zergs just aren't even near his level in these tournaments. Sen will be the best Zerg he has faced since release. I expect Sen to win.

Seems like boxer would've had more success just massing 3/3 vikings and sniping colossus and exploiting EMP+stim vs HT/archon

even though boxer lost
he won
Yeah he's had this figured out for awhile now. He's lost more in the last few years than he ever did, but he seems to gain more fans, respect, accomplishments, and most of all fun out of it. He's basically the Obi Wan Kenobi of Starcraft. Strike me down now and I will become more powerful than you could ever imagine.

Sweet.
EMP easily outranges Feedback/storm. No more qq, please.
On to Crossfire..will be interesting to see if one of them all-ins hoping for a quick win after that epic battle..

I don't think anyone doubts that - it's pretty clear he wasn't 100% going for the win.

Sigh, that may not have been an intense game but it was a fun one. ♥♥ Carriers mother ships battlecruisers and nukes...

The only downside of that was
Boxer a-moving his BC through 10 storms, and not yamatoing colossus He had EMP'd his Battlecruisers so that they wouldn't get Feedbacked by the High Templars. The more feedbacks HT use, the less storms they use. Without storms his ground army could clean up.
This statement is misleading, because the 8bc are only 400 energy to feedback 10 storms are 750 energy meaning with 8 feedbacks he still has energy for 3 storms (at least) which is enough to greatly soften a ground army to the point where his collo/chargelots/stalkers will walk over them.

Another issue was that you simply can't storm dodge with BCs so those storms ripped them BCs apart.
Storm ignores armour and does 80 damage mmm yummy cattlebruisers

Sweet. You are right, but really overextending it with Thors. Clumped up Thors? A single Thor is a clump imo. :D
nah you can hit multiple thors and cause of their speed they usually take the full damage.
HT > all T minus emp. thats why lategame tvp very often comes down to those one caster battle where the T wins if he emps all HTs and loses if he fails to do that.

I wouldn't call 1 extra range "easily" outranging. Yes, it outranges feedback, but don't be obnoxious to make your point.

Yeah that one square is freaking huge...
Feedback should have been given a damage limit ala' EMP nerf. Ridiculously strong ability.

Gretorp dropping some mad knowledge bombs there

Alright, the SlayerS push - didn't work for Ryung or MMA, let's hope it works for Boxer!

also EMP is an ae, doesn't that practically give it around 2 range extra?
