Can you speak Korean?

I can speak my native language, english, german and spanish.


Good for you, not everyone is fortunate enough to be able to though.

HerO plays protoss much better than the majority of protoss, he is everywhere with prisms, dts, small snipe forces to take out hatches and drones. I honestly think this is the future of protoss.

Honestly banking 6k minerals? really no excuse for not spining up bases... maybe add a couple of macro hatches rather than floating minerals while transitioning into broodlords.

What were the results for Huk vs Thorzain?


2-1 to Thorzain.


It'd be nice if someone could update the OP, I had to search around for results as well after missing thorzain huk g3.

Hero looked amazingly strong there but Idra had banked 5k minerals at one point. A ton more spine crawlers at the outer bases + middle lanes would have done wonders I think.

Soooooo, idra just lost a 2nd game. gave it away- 60 supply lead but never pushing... ever until its too late. Also- WTF happened at the 4th? how in the hell it got sniped the 8 zealots when the whole army was next to it


60 supply lead in roaches actually isn't tht much

But he was srsly ahead- 5k minerals, 1k gas. droping 20 spines at expos would prevent everything bad that happened.


this - even though the praise for hero is justified, IdrA could have easily defended by dumping half of his unspent ressources into tons of spine crawlers

zealots are terrible when spines cover the whole zerg base and IdrA definitely had the money to do so


agreed. hold off on the zerg rage because it seemed like hero outplayed him badly.
If you want it bad enough you will find a way; If you don't, you will find an excuse

Also- like Appolo said- there is no air- why not spread overlords so u can see the freaking drops incoming after the first couple happened

He didn't do anything about those warp prism even while having corruptors out. He just threw the game away after having a huuuge advantage.

such an ignorant statement ... at least watch the games ...


In a way it's true though a lot of protoss players just turtle hardcore build a deathball and just make 1 attack.

Heros style is micro intensive and relies on multitasking which is why he just dominated Idra in that last game there.

Why does the commentator say that Idra is playing extremely well all the time when he gets outplayed?


Because he loves idra amongst other reasons


Yeah Total Biscuit sounds like a complete Idra fanboy.


You guys know he and IdrA had a bit of a e-fight over Twitter? Some unpleasant words were exchanged. Of course that was a long time ago and it would be unprofessional of TB to hold a grudge but yeah, it's funny in hindsight that he's apparently a big idra-admirer now.

impressive play from Hero... that's the best P v Z i've seen in a long time. Gives protoss some hope who have been down recently

Idra played poorly. Banking 5k minerals and he doesn't throw spines down at his expos??? Hero outplayed him greatly.

Anyone else thinking that the only real way to deal with Templar is dropping Banelings on them?

my understanding is that most of them can speak some english but they wont speak it because they think its bad (And maybe it is) so they dont do it


Ya they probably just want to be more confident in their English before they speak it on stage.

The biggest mistake I seen Idra do was when hero warped in loads of zealots killed idra's 5th and then went to the 4th.. idra had roachs right next to the zealots but then hero also warped in units at his main and he sent everything to the main leaving all the zealots there to take out the base (and possibly drones couldnt see that spot so dont know)..

Yeah.. idra's multitasking failed him that game.. I am a idra fan but a few days ago became a hero fan because of games like that..

Idra hasnt shown a good performance in quite some time now, he chose terrible fights in second game and through away so many infestors by running them in. Infestors should never really die like that, no wonder he has no gas
