HerO played great. Love his style. Idra on the other hand should take a break from SC II, he has like zero strategical insight into the game. I think he is fighting too much with himself, his rage and frustration.

Makes me wonder what protosses have to say after that. " gateway units are blah blah blah blah against infestors blah" lol.. Actually they are right, there is no excuse for having that much mineral. You can always replace those drones (and it is even easier with macro hatchs). He only needs 3 Spines +1 Spore and 1 OverLord spotting around each base and everything's fine. 8 upgraded chargelots >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 3 spines. That's how much they own spines.

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  French is really easy to learn...
Who gives whether its easy to learn or not? We can't speak it, doesn't matter whether we were learning Japanese or French, we don't take it seriously and therefore cannot speak it well.

hero played awesome i like his "protoss drop" Style, but 3spines in every base where hero can drop(there where 3 of them) could save idra the day i guess, and he had the money for it(allmost 5k minerals banked) still great game
|
haha nazgul
from what i've seen from idra's stream quite a while ago, he tends to do very accurate and reasonable things all game long. maybe that has changed dramatically, but it was barely not enough for him to take on hero and his frantic harass this time ! : (
that kind of harass would literally drive me insane as zerg

Hey Nyovne, put the Liquipedia link into the header thingie so people don't have to constantly ask for scores.

I know they had huk and jinro inside the house to notice him, but still, they picked him up right as he exploded in the scene (or he exploded in the scene because they picked him up). I mean, his korean TLPD was fucking awful, and now his int TLPD is bonjwa-like (not that he is one, please don't make a 20 pages debate because I used that word) with all matchups over 70%.
If you're talking about exploding in foreign scene, then that's what'll happen if you take any solid Korean and put him in USA or Europe. I know, but we don't see MC or any other korean protoss play PvZ that way (actually, he's the only one with some european protoss that can win PvZ atm) It's not only that he's good, it's that he's better than a lot of koreans.

I agree with what someone else said previously...
Why not spend those 5k minerals on a crap tonne of static defence at his expo's?

I can definitely get behind this statement. The guy legitimately scares me watching his games. I don't get that from IdrA anymore.

Can you speak Korean? I can speak my native language, english, german and spanish. Edit: But that's not the point. Most of the people who play computer games online have a good grasp of the English language. I'm just curious why Koreans don't? You do realize that while European languages are relatively similar to each other. They are very different from Asian language, right? It's much easier for Koreans to learn languages like Japanese, or Chinese too.
You do realise european languages also come from different language groups right ?
I mean my language is nothing even remotely similar to english (slovenian) but I've just been learning it from the internets for long enough to become second nature, but sayting all EU languages and english are relatively similar is just REALY ignorant

Not when the opponent is warping in 10 charge zealots with upgrades.

I have long ago already predicted how strong warp prism play can be against ground based zerg army in the late game. That's why i have never favored the zerg deathball which is so immobile and weak in anti-air capabilities. Against a turtlish toss, you need to force engagements early by bypassing chokes through doom drops. Either that or you switch into a muta ling spines composition, 5 bases gas can churn out 10 mutas/min. Mutas are weak against hts but strong against robo, while toss need robo to overcome spines spam. This way zerg can safely go into an attrition war with zergling drops and mutas without fearing a base trade, or straight up kill a toss that goes only robo tech.

Hm i know "no stream whine/complains" but --- It's buffering 24/7 here, nothings happening, anyone got the same problem?
