If you don't know how to post in a live report thread by now, be advised: don't whine about game balance and don't bash players/casters/interviewers/staff/other posters. We are monitoring this thread closely.

Stop with the USA USA chant shit. Further offenses beyond page 493 will be met with bans. You've been warned.

Well he lost a pretty standard and simple game against Kiwikaki. He apparently has a clear weakness against mothership mass mass recall into double vortex + archon toilet...

Apollo has seriously good knowledge of players. He needs to be casting a lot more. He is really freaking great.

STC made a calculated risk. If Idra had held his ramp 30s longer, he pretty much auto-wins the game. It was *that* close. Both players knew it. At that point, it comes down to brutally specific micro/instant decisions. STC had 6 Helions in the Red. If 4 of those had been killed, Idra comes out roughly even then Mutas hits and he wins.

It was a big risk by the STC, but he had the micro to pull it off. Idra also had the ability to beat it. Those types of games just happen, though we do like ones that aren't as risky.

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.


exactly, a lot of people don't understand simple things like this

As a French, I cheer for Stephano... But as a Protoss, I cheer for Inori too! I'm looking forward to this!

Sad Idra lost, he looked good this tournament. Very close to holding that push.That 2 base helion marauder looks very strong, I wonder how far it sets you back if you do no direct damage.

Stephano fighting!

Last foreigner vs last protoss.

And Stephano is nowhere near the top of EU and hasn't been for a bit. He's 16th currently, 150 points behind.

Would it have helped if Idra had queens on the ramp? So sad to see him go when he was clearly the better player

You mean the last one :/
However, isn´t it stated that so far every IGN winner never was to ign before? maybe thats a sign. Hopefully artosis won´t destroy our hopes!

First it was all american, then americans + europeans and now + koreans, so not that weird tbh...

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.

Well said. I concur.

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*


When you are 50% better than mediocre Terran, the slight racial imbalance doesn't show, but when 2 equally skilled player, MVP and nestea plays, MVP stumps nestea everyday

Hellion/Marauder "timings"(ugh.) are pretty good, everything zerg has on T1 dies to this composition, pretty neat.

The zerg that figures out how to beat this gets a medal.

(Note for mods: Not a balance rant. )

Gay shit into macro lose into gay shit. Stereotypical terran

Idra abuses late zergling speed into spire but no one is complaining, someone does build that punish it, he is lame?

That build doesn't punish late zergling speed....>_> It punishes zergs who don't go roach. And no zerg ever wants to go roach because they're terrible terrible units...>_>

thats what idra told you right? well good zergs dont die to marauder hellion. its simple as that


Idra's macro is really good late game because he cuts corners mid-game like this. STC just exploited that that corner cutting and that's why he won.

We protoss are so unlucky, we only get 1 player and it gets matched against the last foreigner just so even if he wins we still lose. (Someone link the sad zealot pic)
