The stream link not being on the calender is really hurting viewership I feel

Awesome that IdrA may take this series, my hope for him has been waning in the past months but he looks to be playing awesomely here!

Over/under 9 supply on Revival's pool in Game 4?

Definitely over. Under doesn't work on metalopolis.

In close air, you get the scout.

In cross positions, you're so far away that anything but a 6 pool is defendable even with hatch first.

Hatch first by both.. hopefully Idra doesn't make that extra round of drones this game and avoids a game 2 repeat.

Is it that, or is it because he is microing drones to mine from closer patches?

Really? I though i saw Idra at 12/18 and Revival at 11/10 each time. But then again maybe 2 supply were still in the larva, while revivals 1 drone is mining?

This is kind of unrelated, but can anyone explain to me why a player would go baneling in ZvZ? Every ZvZ I've seen, roaches do extremely well against banelings.

They always synch up at 14 supply. You get a drone out a bit earlier with the 11/10 but you lose money on the cancelled extractor.

It's almost the same thing. Won't change the game at all.

mainly to do with how open the natural is and some speedling all-ins kill roaches.

1) Banelings are quicker. If your opponent goes banelings and they hit before you get roaches, you have a hard time defending.

2) Banelings are cheaper. If you go roaches, you need to make some or you can't defend speedlings. But if you are using blings to defend against speedlings you're saving money.

I'm sure there are more reasons. Just off the top of my head those are two big ones.

I think it has something to do with revivals apparent love for 6-9 pool =P

Its interesting how well Idra performs against Korean play. Their play follows the sort of logic that was pounded into his head when he trained there.

He definitely shines the brightest against Koreans. At least against the ones who don't bunker rush. He doesn't do well against them...
