THAT is why we say toss is overpowered.

Who's we? Don't you mean you?

Protoss the opposite of overpowered.


They are in no way overpowered, Hero is just incredible and IdrA made a few mistakes. A few mistake versus no mistakes will not win you the series against a player like Hero.


I don't think Idra was just expecting Protoss being played like that. You can see him flustered in game 2. He banked 5k minerals and brought back his whole army to defend some zealots.

Dapollo telling the truth tbh. Only Demuslim can be good enough to practice well enough. Well, anyways good games. Idra got outplayed on the 2nd game, but he didn't play bad there - more like HerO played absolutely well.

WTF that was one of the BEST pvz I've ever seen. And I saw a lot. Great play from both of them! Really great! Loving Dreamhack so far. Now, Naniwa and Lucifron, gogogo! ^^

I disagree- both games depended on Idra making a mistake. Especially 2nd where idra was in dominating position. Both sides did not play a clean games. There is a huge room for improvement


hero played a little sloppy for the first 10-15 mins

but after that.....

well after u make a mistake in the begining u have to play flawless to win, which hero did (he had awesome last 10-15 mins there).
So.. this Earth, nice planet you might say- WRONG!!

Man Idra has some of the worst unit control I've ever seen. He wastes THOUSANDS of resources in uncontrolled units. Until he fixes that issue he'll never be as good as he used to.


His infestor control has been particularly disappointing.

Tell me, why are Protoss complaining about Fungal Growth and Infestors?

Hero understands how they work and counters them.


By avoiding and walking around them with warp prisms and similar harass, which I think is increasingly defining the PvZ metagame. I find it weirder that there are still zerg complaining about the death ball. The age of death balls is more or less past, unless you mean the brood+infestor ball.



yes, it past but only becouse zerg finally found an answer for it. if np is nerfed toss death ball age will come back again

Can't believe people are suggesting he drop 10+ spines at every base. Yeah , 4 x 10 = 40 drones. 40 drone . Have fun mining off 3 base with 30 drones. very well played by hero , feed backs were on point and his drops were amazing.

Makes me wonder what protosses have to say after that. " gateway units are blah blah blah blah against infestors blah" lol..

Out of curiousity, how is it possible that not a single Korean gamer, who doesn't live in the US can speak english?


Can you speak Korean?

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


They all use the same alphabet, Korean and English don't. Even in UK I guarantee you no one who just goes to school and does french cannot speak french, they must learn it in another way. After doing 4 years of french all I can say is what my name is, and where I live -.-

The priority of learning english seems to be high in all european countries. Korea must not care much about it

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.


that's professional casting, just like when idra was casting cruncher vs someone

oh wait

Will ANYONE bring up the fact that Idra has horrible unit control? He wasted about 9 infestors for NO reason. Idra killed himself more than Hero killing Idra in game 2.


his unit control was better than usual!

he got his infestors out of one battle alive, before losing them in the next engagement. that's almost doubling the survival rate of his infestors.
