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. Why should every answer to a strategy have to come from Blizzard? Other top zergs have done fine with dealing with all kinds of cheese strategies EXCEPT Idra. It isn't a fault of the race that Idra can never mount a strong early defense against these types of play. | ||

Idra is trying to conserve gas for mutas but is forced to make a few banes just in case. STC drops 3 more rax'es. | ||

It is impossible to be safe from proxy rax, and not fall pretty far behind at the same time in that situation. solution would be to never hatch first on that map, which just means it's hugely likely the Terran opening will put him ahead of you, cus the rush distance of map. Idra took risk on equalizing economy and hoping he doesn't proxy, or messes up micro well doing so. Or just scout the center. Pretty much all proxy raxes are placed there because the Terran won't know yet where the Zerg is. | ||

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. They were even in workers since you can produce out of the barracks and keep up worker production even while bunker rushing, add to that the double bunker wall at the chokepoint, idra would need to invest a LOT to break that while TheSTC when noticing that the wall will no longer hold can simply evacuate the bunkers and salvage losing nothing. Idra would be WAY to far behind to come back. | ||
