I feel like IdrA respects White-Ra the most ouf of any foreign protoss (except maybe for HuK becuase he's practically contractually obligated to), but regardless, this match is awesome.

I'm not zerg, but I really don't understand why you'd bother with mutas against protoss. Stalkers are just so good against them. It's not even like ZvT where you can run around them, they just blink and you die.

Idra was so far behind on upgrades.

Watch killer vs Hero from earlier today. Killer dismantled Hero with Mutas

Nothing means anything anymore. Every game is one of the best comebacks in Starcraft 2 history.

Idra had attack upgrades. Painuser was going by the drone's upgrades, and workers don't gain attack upgrades.

They wernt balanced around being 1 supply thats why they made them 2, what you said makes no sense lol. But seriously that muta transition was a bit silly i think i wonder what idra was thinking, gg nontheless.

1 supply to 2 supply hardly changes the power of the unit in the mid-early game.

It just means you have to build more overlords... think about it.

Of course he selects a drone, which does not get any damage upgrades.

excellent idea though.

I think I saw +1 attack still in the production tab at the end, so he was right anyway.

Man why did he not get more macro hatches? Hell even extra hatches? He started floating over a 1000 mins, surely just expanding more to get more gas even if they die. Although I totally agree that he needed better upgrades too.
