Idra's ZvT looks pretty terrible recently. Rain didn't do anything amazing, and he totally rolled Idra.

Rain with 800 minerals, 500 gas, and still being the "superior" player.
Herp derp. I might respect rain if he did anything more then 2 base.

rain just used the same elevator timing that boxer did at anaheim..not particularly original.

i love how painuser thinks that idra should play this out -- yeah, lings against marine/blueflame hellion sounds like a real fun game to playout. close air metalopolis is a joke

That was honestly an incredible game by Rain from start to finish from the reaper to the lift to the marine micro to the landed viking to soak the baneling hits. No respect lost for Idra, that was just a really amazingly played game by Rain.

His macro slipped cause of his micro. He was on two base because Idra didn't have his third up. If the zerg is staying on 2 base, there is no reason for the terran to go to three.
... And there were days, good days, when by anyone's judgment they would have to be considered clever.

Rain could have won with the reaper in the bunker behind the mineral line, I get the feeling he stopped building it knowing it would end the game

Idra was definitely dead in both games, no question.

but he handled the situation pretty poorly to end up where he was. I think he needs to seriously rethink his approach to ZvT, but I have a feeling he is too stubborne and set in his ways to adjust.

The biggest variation we've seen in his ZvT in the last 6 months is that he does an occasional roach rush and leaves if they built a bunker

The viking didn't soak the hits, IdrA clicked into it because he knew the banes were never going to reach hellions off creep or marines that can be picked up

That was basically the SlayerS medivac + 4BFH elevator build.

You can't stop it unless you mass zerglings and banes before it actually hits.

Haha Idra so bad
How is he still not anticipating/better preparing for this style after being beaten by it several times by Boxer at MLG...several weeks ago already?

roaches are negated by the medivac -- rain could've just lifted and taken 0 losses. roaches are also a poor investment against terran anyway, especially a terran that plays bio against zerg

Do you play zerg?

Roaches are the absolute worst thing you can open against terran, unless you mean only around 4 or so to stop hellion builds.

A actual roach/bane composition that zergs like Coca try are awful.

leenock beat it by spreading creep and shooting down the medivac with queens while it unloaded.

Fruitdealer beat it by letting the marines land, then hitting them with banelings when the medivac picked up the hellions., so the marines had nowhere to go.

it's perfectly stoppable. idra just had no units and no scouting information, and no preparation.
