Idra is the last EG left in the tourney

I hope he's not on too much tilt after that last game.


Probably too tired to tilt at this point. Wonder what he was thinking sleeping an hour before the match?

You guys do know that Idra did a roach/speedling all in in game 1 vs Thorzain?


When a Zerg all ins its a great play. Always. I don´t know why so many people complain about cheese and all ins, they have always existed, will always exist and it was no different in BW. Some people seem to get PTSD when they get attacked early lol


You comparing 2 saturated bases timing attack with a 11/11 bunker rush?

Don't hate on TheStC. Hate on Blizzard. It's their fault shit like this still works.

You're playing against someone that is notably one of the strongest late game zergs in the world... why wouldn't you do a cheesy build that either wins you the game, or at worst breaks you even with your opponent?

It's retarded to hate on TheStC. Just because he did that doesn't mean he is a trash player that can't play in the lategame (quite the opposite, he is a beast in the late game and very well balanced in all 3 MUs). You do what it takes to win. As long as Blizzard doesn't think of a proper way to prevent 2 rax cheese, Terrans will use it... and rightfully so.

That build is pretty much auto-win vs hatch first it's pretty ridiculous.


Yep... pretty frustrating.

Then dont hatch first on that map? lol.

thats one of the biggest maps in the game. Idra shouldv went on the xel naga tower when he was scouting. also, stc got cross positions that means hes going to get scouted second on a huge map, which is a big deal.

This sort of meta-game is so standard among Korean pros that foreigners should wise up to it already.

Lucky did the exact same thing vs. Ret: aggressive cheese/pressure opening first game, greedy macro opening second game. It's elementary meta-gaming.

That and it is so easy to pull it off and much harder for Zerg to hold off in relation to how easy it is for Terran to do.

So you're on a team with PuMa, probably the most all-inish terran out there. How can you not put him in a game with you, and have him do this to you for x hours until you can reliably hold it?

I don't see how a pro gamer can be this terrible at holding this. It's not easy to hold, but this attempt was truly pathetic.


While I hate the cheese I have to agree with this statement.

except puma isn't the most all-inish terran out there. Especially vs Zerg. He likes late game vZ.

Idra didn't scout the 2 rax until the bunker was being placed down. Only hope he had is to not allow the bunkers at the choke, but when they went down, it was over

Why does people keep cheering when a player they like cheese like this? Aren't we watching this stream because we wanna see epic StarCraft games? Can you honestly say seeing a terran cheese out a zerg with two proxied 11/11 rax is exciting? No, in fact its even more disrespectful to the community to cheese than bming or quitting without gg.


Zerg can easily win 2 rax with pool first then hatch, because they can pull far more eco when terran invest in 11/11 rax

Idra pokes with his initial 2 lings. He grabs his first two gases.

STC scouts again with an scv and drops 2 more rax.

qft

nope, idra's roach rush was a response to thorzains greedy play. here stc cheesed blindly.

Though technically its blind, He's playing vs IdrA on TD It's 95% chance of a hatch first build. He did he research on his opponent and did a build he knew could get him a quick win. I don't understand the hate on him for it?

Can someone decent explain to me something I've never understood about Zerg players? Why do Zerg players feel like they should be able to expand so fast without making any attacking units and then cry when they get punished? Why don't Zerg players try making attacking units, it makes no sense to me..

Because we don't have mules. We have to expand fast or else we're behind economically and from a production stand point. You obviously have no idea what you're talking about.


So you are telling me that instead of hatch first you can't build a few lings, stop the scv and then use your queen to make like 7 drones at once? You don't even have the 1st base saturated when you make your second, don't understand the mindset

It's well know that Idra sucks at holding rushes, people use that against him.
The same reason terrans always bunker pressure losira because he always lose his hatch.

And its the reason most people stopped trying to rush nestea because he destroys it.

Sorry but Idra can't handle early pressure well, and he goes into rage/stress mode whenever it happens.

I don't understand why zergs immediately leave. I've seen zergs like DRG just sac the hatchery, and then clean up the bunkers while taking a very fast third base.

He lost too many drone with that

That is why he is idra, we have seen some incredible come back from MMA this tournament in the map between MMA and White RA, and Kiwikaki vs Stephano on game 2. I have seen some good zerg sacked their hatch and still win, 300 minerals is not that really huge, and terran also has to cut a lot of scv to do that 11/11 rax, so zerg is not that far behind when they sacked the natural, they can double expand later.


STC was following up by locking IdrA in his main. It's one thing if he salvaged his bunkers and went home. But he could sit outside of IdrA's main w/ those bunkers and make raid into his main w/ the marines and until he has banelings (which wouldn't be soon), he'd be stuck there.
