How was that not cheese? Didn't he completely stop producing SCVs?

Not to mention it's an auto loss vs faster muta rushes. Although no one ever sees those anymore.


TheSTC had Idra's base completely scouted for quite a while, he knew exactly when mutas would come out.

And cutting SCV production for a bit doesn't equal all-in when aiming for a timing.

lol idra cuts corners to gain an advantage late-game.

attack him while he's vulnerable and you're a cheesy noob
don't attack him and let him cut corners to gain that advantage and it's brilliant play by idra.

how can you scout marauders when you are being contained by hellions what


The marauders are incidental imo, the hellions do the real damage. Marauders or not you can hold it the same way. Spines that don't allow run bys and enough of them so you don't have to trade lings repeatedly.

That's the strength of it; if he has pretty much only lings you can keep running in and whittling them down and never let him get a large enough number of them.

Sorry zergs but one spine on Shattered against reactor hellion - no man. That's not gonna cut it.

I don't understand this hate towards terrans. In a straight up macro game without early pressure terran cannot beat the production of zerg. One can even say the pressure is on the terran player to apply enough pressure.


this is not true at all, terrans win late game all the time, its just way harder.

from a fan point of view the longer the games in ZvT the better because you get muta harras, tons of rine drops and all sorts of shenanigans. In a short game you get maybe 2 minutes of micro then someone dies and its boring.

People love macro games because they are more entertaining. Think about any sports game, is a NHL game more fun if its a 5-0 blow out or if its 4-3 with the last goal scored in the last minute.

People hate on terran because they have the biggest ability to blow people out and not give a nail bitter

would this game be exciting if both players knew that they couldnt get attacked or die during the first 20 minutes? I think not. Cheese, timing attacks, greedy play, all part of the game and what makes starcraft such a great game, both to play and to watch, imho.

Lol? If it works it works, and that wasn't even cheese.

IdrA really needs to learn to handle early pressure!


Lean to handle early pressure?

You SURVIVE at best.

There is a reason all the korean terrans are winning everything.


LOOOOL Nestea winning Code-S without a SINGLE Loss.
Fuck yeah terrans are winning everything said the 3 times Code-s champion nestea.
MVP and nestea winning everything*



NesTea won Code s because he avodied every terran except Ensnare

Did you miss his shoddy games against Happy, MVP, MMA, etc?

IdrA got caught off-guard by a build he probably hasn't seen before, or at least not since early release. He missed the timing of the build by tens of seconds - if he had been able to collect one more round of lings before the attack he would've held, I think.

Back in Beta, the "counter" to the hellion marauder all-in was roach ling into muta. The muta switch is necessary to punish the Terran for going all ground. STC made it a more macro-oriented build, which made the timing come later, but also made it less obvious to IdrA who would've expected more of an all-in if STC went one-base.

Oh and the typical IdrA fanboys come to the LR thread to QQ.... *sigh*. So annoying.

I do have to agree though, TheSTC is so cheesy for saying "Hmm, he is macroing up a lot, and he will likely out macro me as zerg if I don't do anything. I guess I should just get a strong push together to see if I can do signficant damage to put him back while he has weak defenses."

Stupid strategy...
