I generally agree with that, Dimaga doesn't seem to play in an as many of these tournaments but I think hes definitely up there skill wise particularly going off how he played in Korea during the world championships. I'd probably throw Ret and Sheth in the conversation too though I wouldn't say that they're definitely above idrA. Idra isn't particularly adept at figuring out new innovative strategies, he has absolutely top tier mechanics but his game sense, unit control, and honestly mental stability just aren't at a level where you can say that hes the best. | ||

You don't need to mass Ghosts to negate Infestors, which is the main idea. They also do well sniping broodlords. On top of that, without fungals Vikings are far more effective against broods+corruptors. Also, Morrow DID NOT need Brood Infestor to win that. He easily could have simply massed banelings/zerglings at that point, he was so far ahead. | ||

Then they'll all be unstoppable power houses. As for Idra, he seems to have other priorities in life at the moment, so it's really up to him whether he wants to try to conquer his weaknesses or not. As for Nerchio, unfortunately he doesn't play in many big tournaments, as someone above said, but I think he's definitely an excellent player and up there in terms of foreigner Zergs. Should also mention Vibe, an up-and-coming NA Zerg, as well as Sheth, Slush, etc. for runner ups. Idra's weakness is being on an American team and only being able to practice regular on the Na ladder =/ | ||

The only matchup that IdrA seems to have an advantage over him is in ZvZ. A few months ago IdrA was stronger in all matchups. He's starting to be slip a fair bit. I'm starting to think Morrow is the best foreigner zerg. Wrong use of metagame. MorroW has his own ZvP style that he made personally, along with his team. I imagine the same thing can be said with his ZvT style. MorroW is even better at ZvT because he used to be terran. IdrA isn't behind compared to everyone else, MorroW is just ahead. | ||

David Kim said that Blizzard is looking at Brood Lord/Infestor late game to see if it's overpowered right now, if they find that it is, it'll get nerfed, otherwise Terrans will find a way to deal with it. | ||

They already are on the korean server, one day you'll see but that day isn't today as if you think nada played those macro games good I would disagree, he was way to passive, let morrow take like 3 bases and did 0 pressure. Why should the terran be the one that has to be aggressive and not let zerg get 3 bases, why shouldnt the zerg be the one that is afraid of terran late game. Why shouldnt zerg need to be aggressive and not let terran get 3 bases, thats the point in this game. The better player should win the game and not "you didnt pressure zerg early game and now you will get roflstomped" because there is no "you didnt pressure the terran early game and now you will get roflstomped" The thing is that terran NEEDS to do early damage in order to stay equal to the zerg, while zerg on the other hand will always be ahead of the terran and doesnt need to do early damage to terran to be or stay ahead. I know that Morrow is a better player and i did expect that if he passes Socke that he would 2-0 Nada, its just that late game terran cant win against the zerg, only zerg can lose to terran by their own mistakes. | ||

Sure, MMA doesn't let you get to lategame, but the mentality that you have to kill the zerg before late game is design flaw. If it's a design flaw then I see no fix for it. Zerg is the passive/reactive race (for the most part), it makes sense that their late game army is effective. | ||

Seriously what's with all this Terran QQ? Are you guys unhappy that only 6 terrans made it to top 8 in GSL? MorroW has ahead 3 bases vs NaDa, you can't complain about Broodlords/Infestors in this situation. L2p please and stop QQing. lol morrow killing his own composition | ||

I really would have liked to see Ravens in the games, though. Seeker Missiles are good, no? It would probably have been incredibly difficult to get them in the situation he was in, but I feel like his overall composition from the get-go wasn't the greatest. His Marine/Tank army looked SO vulnerable at all stages of the game, and he did absolutely no damage in comparison to what he needed. Oh well. Still rooting for him :D | ||
