IdrA needs to learn to respect those 3/3 Marines, he always loses so many Mutas by getting too aggressive with them.

MKP so godly. for those haters yes idra had mkp on the ropes but he through away so many lings and mutas while harrasing and the reason mkp was behind in supply is because he invested so much into upgrades. If you invest 500 min and gas into 3/3 ups yes your gonna be behind until they kick in

I'm an idra fan, but seriously lack of upgrades lost Idra the game. He saw the upgrades on the units and it's his fault for not upgrading.

Idra should have made upgrades but he had to make upgrades for 2 types of units not just one like marine king.
Infestors would not have won him the game, to be honest I know how marine king won. But he looked completely outplayed. Anyone who thinks he is sick because of this game is being foolish. He is a great player but this game hardly showed that.

Also damn those marines did completely look imbalanced when each had a medivac. Again I understand what happened but the way the fight actually looked... damn it was like idra was fighting ultras that could attack air units.

Idra should've teched. He needed infestors. He need hive tech. Also 3/3 marines with enough medivacs can take out infinity supply.

Infestors I think are the biggest thing. Fungaling the SCVs and marines would've won it for him for sure.


at the end, every unit had a personal medivac so all fungal does is negate medivacs. If he was sniping medivacs, fungal would be awesome.



that also means marines cant micro banelings the difference it makes is massive.

Flying medics are pretty good...

The pool has both IdrA and MKP as 4-1, 9 wins 3 losses, aren't they TIED? Why are they saying MKP gets 1st place?

Why, were you not entertained by that game?

Why does it matter where they come from? Was that game not intense and exciting? If a player's nationality is what prevents you from watching esports why even bother?

Best part is the foreign community brought MKP over in the first place.

People keep saying 'personality' or whatever, but tbh a lot of the foreigners aren't known for their charisma either.

All he really did was get 3/3 on his marines. His macro was actually terrible but he had 3/3 marines to stim. The only reason he won is because of the power of marines.


This. 3-3 marines won him the game, nothing else. Macro was poor, not a single reactored barracks and he was banking 2k+ minerals the entire time. His micro wasn't even that good tbh. Simply won because marines are too damn good.

No he wasn't banking 2k minerals the entire time, he started banking once he started getting attacked from 2 sides, it's easier to attack than it is to defend most of the time.

wow.... while doing the muta harass, if idra goes infestors instead of suiciding zerglings all day into the front of MKP's base, that would've been over ....

Right?


TBH at that last fight idra kind of picked a bad spot to fight. Had he left MKP get closer to his base he could've completely cut off reinforcements and killed all of the medivacs. It would've been instant GG but he fought at the middle rock which allowed his reinforcement marines to reach the medivacs.

Some people doesn't enjoy seeing a tourney roster and knowing which players will finish top 6. It's his opinion, are you that intolerant?

Its not just the upgrades, i think he needed 4 infestors, which he normally has.. maybe he was rushing for hive too quickly. either way well played by MKP.

OMFFFGGGGGG!!!!! BEAUTIFUL GAME FROM MKP!!! HOLY SHIT the nerd chills|!!

Beautiful?.... banking minerals and macroing terribly is the way to go...


The lack of macro and production was offset by the huge advantage in upgrades, a small amount of marines can hold the line against superior mutalisk numbers if upgrades are early enough, in this case, MKP had 3-3 in 15 min while mutas were 1-0.

Does it make it a beautiful game from MKP? certainly not. The hard part is to macro decently, not getting 3/3, even I can tech to 3/3.

Decent micro too. Even 3-3 marines suck against banelings.

he won because Idra handed him the perfect engagement on a platter. Quite simply.

He had barely enough to win, but barely enough can still be enough. If Idra had focus fired with his 16 mutas he would have one shot the marines one after another, instead he let them spread fire and the medivacs outhealed him.

Note on the flipside MK had nearly perfect micro, his baneling targeting is absurdly good, which makes him such a hard player to play against. Still make no mistake if Idra had built 2 infestors or pulled back from that battle he would have won the game.
