Thats the reason why Idra lost the third game, but it worked this time. :S Idra has a ton of mutas, marines shoot up, tanks cannot shoot up. Kill the marines and mutas can destroy tanks. Plus you want the tank splash damage to kill some of the marines too. | ||

The whole inability to shoot up leaves them fairly vulnerable... | ||

It looked like there were only ~4 banes chasing his marines under the mutas. He may or may not have been able to split and focus or split and mitigate the damage. Whatever, lost cause once the marines are all dead anyways. One more IdrA!!! | ||

His macro had little to do with winning that 3rd game. | ||

Especially when you have mutas to cleen up the tanks once the marines are gone. | ||

Anyway, I hope this next game will be decided by something other than 'one bad push' or 'one bad attempt to crush a push'. Seems like the last game came down to timely unsieging, the game before that, a bad 1a from idra. | ||

Plus you want the tank splash damage to kill some of the marines too. Thats obvious, but it only works if the tanks are unsieged and your army is way better than his. Otherwise the Terran will kite you with his marines and your ling/bling will stupidly follow them while the untouched siege tanks destroy your ground forces. Thats what happened in the last engagement of game 3. Quite a gamble if you ask me. | ||
