You can't rely on hydra/ling when he's going zealot/phoenix. We saw the same game hydra's got rolled due to how good phoenix are vs them. | ||

There is no abuse. really? mvp said on his twitter that they should make a rule where you are DQ'ed if you 1-1-1. hes a terran and even he thinks its abusive. | ||

He saw the double stargate, but I don't think he saw all those gateways after the mass pheonix follow up w/ the warpgate. The only thing elfi could afford was phenoix and zealots. similar to a 7gate all in, just build a lot of spines, and a lot of lings. | ||

I've never complained about 1-1-1. All ins take a certain finesse to stop. You can't keep failing against breaking the all-in and expect to win. | ||

But that is scary that he can still win with those mistakes, with some more training it will be terrifying! Play Protoss -> make mistakes and beat a player with 3x better mechanics.

If someone goes for a greedy game and gets only economy and techs without any fighting units whatsoever, there is no reason not to attack. It's called doing the right stuff and that wins you the game, blame it on IdrA if he loses to that stuff. You attack when you can, and if you see that he doesn't have anything to defend, you don't just go and expand and risk the game, you just outright kill him. Elfi did that and had success because IdrA didn't react properly. | ||

Yea thats the one thing i didnt like, but in all fairness at some points idra was so close to holding it off, elfi was wallking a thin line there for a bit and an expand could have turned it around , if he could end it there he may as welll have because almoost definitely he would have been pushed back if he expanded, he was transitioning out of it with collosus though and if he expanded as well he could have built up collosus at home and come back and raped all those hydras, but why would he want to extend a game that he could most likely win right there, extending it just gives him more chances to make mistakes and lose. | ||
