Idra's ZvZ hasn't looked good at all recently. Hell, he got outplayed by Lalush and there was no build order disadvantage you could pign that one on. Knee jerk statements like this are kinda silly. MC is like 2-3 in the NASL, Select just curbstomped Ace 2-0, Dimaga has beaten MVP and Nestea ina a latency free setting, Jinro and Idra have made Round of 8 in the GSL, etc. Besides, Zenio is a really good Zerg and a consistent Code S player. It's definitely not like it was in Sc1, I highly doubt you actually watched Sc1 because if you did you would realize how uh...dumb....what you're saying is. IdrA won the series vs LaLush. I'm just referring to the first game. Idra got outmicroed and out multitasked that game; he played pretty poorly and honestly LaLush isn't amazing from what I've seen. Its really not a surprise he lost to Zenio, who's a lot better than people give him credit for. It was a build order loss, nothing more nothing less. 10pool will always lose to a properly played 14gas 13/14 pool. The reason you 10 pool in the first place is because you're fairly certain the opponent is going to hatch first. Which, if he does, will pretty much give you a free win. I had my chance to beat idra in the second game on xelnaga, when we both opened same build, but i totally misread his intentions with the 8 ling run around. Thought he'd morph banes in a corner somewhere. And in the third game he just outplayed me. From playing vs idra on ladder and in that clan war, i can say he certainly has one of the strongest ZvZ outside Korea. He's the only one whose hatch first builds i cannot regularly beat with a 14gas 13/14pool opening. Where it feels like a build order loss to open that build vs hatch first. I've been stubborn holding on to pool before hatch in ZvZ, but feeling forced to change my play up now. Also: Why am I arguing with a bronze player? Didn't see idra's games vs zenio, so can't say anything about them. What I can say is that you're full of shit. Stop exaggerating. You such an arrogant and rude punk. If you arnt insulting people you whining about game balance. I wish you the worst of luck in future tournaments. You are a discrace to the sc2 community User was temp banned for this post. hey look an actual pro replies to the topic and you bash him? oh man ..

Wow, I can't believe you read through the thread and gave a detailed reply. However, does that mean that even SEn's hatch first is problematic (i.e exploitable)?
From a lot of games I have seen recently, hatch first builds require you to build defensive roaches.
Sometimes a player opening speed first and simple expands and makes a shitload of drones. The other player, even though they pooled first, must make roaches to account for the possibility of a zergling attack or run-by. On the other hand, the speed zergling user has plenty of time to set up a defense in case the hatch first player moves out with slow roaches.
IdrA vs Sen game 3 turned out a little bit like this, where idra hatch first but did not really get a big econ lead because he was forced to make 6-7 roaches.

The EU stream was and is still a joke. It lags horribly as soon as a battle starts, even on 240p. No i',m not the only with this problem. I constantly talk to people from all over europe and they all have the same problem. No it's not my internet connection.
Every other Justin.tv stream works fine on higher resolutions. Even TL Attack and TLOs stream yesterday, which both had way more users than the NASL EU stream, worked perfectly. It's getting ridiculous NASL!

So it's a problem with JustinTv? Why is every other stream from them working without problems?

I have sound but video freezes every 10-15 seconds... That stream is horrible.
|
The stream lags horribly. +1
|
I use the free quality stream, but I have no lag whatsoever just fyi ;-)
|
I have no problem with the free stream at all. Been working like a charm after the first week.
These games are painfully bad. This is the worst tvt series I've seen since Butterflyeffect vs Littleboy (or something similar), where Tasteless screamed give me your mouse and keyboard I'm taking over.

noooo. deflose for Socke
|
why did socke lose and not boxer?
|
lol the stream works great. stop blamin nasl!
<3

Nice top 10 summary of NASL moments; it would seem TotalBiscuit certainly likes his rocks and his hard places.
|
Top 10 plays are nothing special really . Top 3 are the only ones worth even mentioning . I think there were better choises for top 10 in this 6 weeks of games .
|
Any link to see that toplist again?
