How would you react if someone opened 11/12 against you and put down two bunkers in such a fashion that you cannot attack the marines that are hiding behind them?
Would that put a smile on your face?
Its extremely annoying and abuses the shit out of melee units.

You cant attack it with melee units, and spines arent able to kill bunkers that are being repaired (remember the game boxer vs idra at the last mlg where idra had 3 spines attacking the bunker? it didnt even budge).
What should zerg build to destroy that bunker? 6 spines? 10?
Building so many spines is game anyway.

Its an annoying rush and takes alot away from the game in my opinion.

All you have to do to defend this is to drone scout.
Idra deserved to loose.


Even the ones that do drone scout will build the hatch before pool and die anyways, even if they scout it afterwards.
It comes very early and you cant really count on scouting it before you put down that hatch, because 15 population is extremely early.

Sorry no, I have seen other zergs defend it with ease. Stop saying you cannot defend it.
As long as you have a good micro, there is no reason not to defend it, not on this map where you are guaranteed to scout in time... if you scout.


You are comparing different scenarios with each other.
Show me one game where a zerg has defended 11/11 (or any similar early bunker rush) on meta close by air if the bunkers are put in exactly that fashion.
Unless the zerg luckily runs into the proxy rax he will hatch first and die.

You wont find a single occasion because the games you are referring to are on other maps where it is entirely possible to NOT scout at all and still defend it with ease.

Stop watching Idra, start watching other zerg streams and you will see it.

Idra simply does not have the right mentality to improve, he will keep loosing to it again and again, while others have found solution against it.

If you can't defend without scouting it, just scout the dam thing. You don't have to be a genius to come up with the idea.

And you know what, if you scout it, you can prevent the bunkers to be place "in exactly that fashion". OMG, I'm sure you've never thought about that.


I have seen stephano die to exactly that rush, i have seen nerchio die to exactly that rush, i have seen ret die to exactly that rush, i have seen nestea die to exactly that rush.
What is your point?

On some maps, i have seen idra smash that rush, stephano smash that rush, nerchio smash that rush, ret smash that rush, nestea smash that rush.

Its still a terrible strategy that has the potential of taking away from the game and make for terrible games and it is happening quite frequently.
The opening makes for terrible games and i dont support it, i suppose you are a supporter of terrible games.


Stephano has never in tournament games died to a 2 proxy rax push never. He is exstremely safe. You got any proff to backup that claim?

Point taken, but Beastyqt and Kas are not the best two terrans in Empire... that was just a wrong statement made by Painuser..

nice analysis.


now we see one of the best terrans (PuMa) playing

His opponent would be the best terran in the world, if there would be exactly 1 strategy for all races and the maximum bases were 2.

Btw: how did kas beat idra?
was it macrogames? was it close? IdrA is a ZvT beast and happy loses to nerchio and stpehano often... didnt expect that one

first game was a macro game with alot of mistakes from idrA.

Second game was a BO win, idrA 15 hatch 15 pool, Kas 11/12 proxy rax.

Kas straight up outplayed IdrA in game 1, went for some blue flame hellions which IdrA defended nicely then turtled for a bit and took his third and then went marine tank with heavy upgrades which was too much for IdrA.

Game 2 is not worth watching. IdrA 15 hatched and Kas did an 11/12 rax and built bunkers into that nook where zerglings cant get to the marines on Metalopolis. Abusive and not a good game in my opinion.

It was a macro game 1 where Kas did his usual constant methodical expanding+macroing while looking for oppertunities to get aggresive. he found one and forced idras army out of position, letting kas kill of expansions. he then had a really good engagement which let him kill more expos and it snowballed from there. g2 was a 11/12 rush which made idra rage quit as soon as 2 bunkers went up in a way which made idra unable to stop them from going up as there were 2 marines between the bunkers.

EG is not doing that well, and this after being the "winner" of MLG Orlando... Not sure what went wrong for EG - overconfidence perhaps?

yep, the reasoning is obvious^^

BeastyQt is nowadays much more solid and therefore the better player.

Empire's a good team man. They have the stuff to stick with teams like EG and Mouz when they're playing well.

I think that win makes Beastyqt 7-2 in this league, which is pretty impressive. Overall Empire is really quite a good team actually, they totally lack a serious protoss or zerg threat, but their terran line is probably the strongest of anybody's.

To be fair, Axlav was probably not the best choice. Huk or Demuslim would have been so much stronger for EG.
