When such varying timing pushes exist that don't require proxy buildings or other big risks, you either need to be able to scout them, they need to require such specific gas timings that you can tell with a drone scout roughly where they're going, or they need to be less strong. | ||

He's actually a really good player TheStC showed that he's no where near Idra's level as a mechanical player. He went CC first on Shakuras Plateu and cut every corner possible to macro up and still got clowned by Idra's macro mechanics. He showed that Idra is still weak to really strong semi-allin aggression builds, as Idra always has been. TheStC was the better strategist today, nowhere near the better (or even skill) player. | ||

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. Without the marauders, spines are actually useful. With marauders, spines evaporate. | ||

Someone sure is maaad ... now now :D The stc is Korean, it's a disgrace he even lost a game in the series to IdrA Tbh, IdrA seems overall better at the moment. Both TheSTCs wins were kinda all in, first one was straight out cheese, second one needs to kill off the zerg before the mutas pop, one more crawler for IdrA probably would've won him the game. | ||

Yeah sure man, spine crawlers totally don't get completely shit on by stimmed marauders? a queen at the ramp doesnt neither right? I honestly don't know the proper counter to this but the ones you guys are naming are pretty dumb, unless we're talking 6 spine crawlers here which doesn't really come up in time I believe. i play terran btw, really sad to see IdrA go out like this -.- The counter is mutas, but with a combined build time of over 3 minutes of Lair - Spire - Mutalisk, you need to get the quick mutas blindly, sniff out the attack really early, or delay the push like a madman. | ||
