Watch when people do that to DRG 90% of the time they get destroyed. Its silly to QQ if IdRA looked at mini map and attack with lings he could have held. He let the hellions get past it with like 2 hits

Actually DRG has been losing quite a bit lately to hellion builds when he tries to skip roaches.


And when DRG goes roaches, he usually losses against the decent terrans.

That's how much of a crutch roaches are in that TvZ matchup.

Soo awful by Kas =) Gz to team Empire.
Although, Kas should really work on his TvZ. After Asus Rog it seemed that Idra had his emotions pretty much under control. Apparently, he still has a long way to go.
Anyway, I'm still concerned about Happy and Aristeo since they are going to represent Russia at the next WCG.

P.S. I love how Beastyqt's Serbian flag is similar to Russian and ppl tend to mix them up =)

Ya you'll lose all your hellions but what does it matter when you've killed 14 drones + enough lings to stop a counter attack. Its not like they cost gas or anything.

Compared to all the gas that the drones and lings cost

Since when do drones and lings counter hellions? Lol wtf.

read your previous post, lol
Yeah, whatever

It's not cheese. In a sense, Idra "cheesed" more than Kas, though his "cheese" was blindly build drones without scouting.

Kas went 2fact reactor hellions which isn't cheese in the slightest.

It's allin or lose on XNC. You either allin when T is on 1 base or allin right before they are about to take their 3rd.


zvt on xel'naga: 41%, that's no way impossible

on that version of tal'darim, tvz is 37%. so? idra's win doesn't matter either?

people need to stop pulling excuses out of their asses whenever a player loses

I don't care if some of you are mad about the way Empire won, but they played very well in most of their matches in GCPL and deserve more recognition than they get. Also, Kas has an incredible record in team leagues, even if he didn't play to his fullest potential this time, overall the win is deserved. IdrA failed to adapt to his strategies, so why shouldn't he win?


Exactly. Idra's strength is late game macro and Kas clearly doesn't want to do that, why the hell should he? In the end you do what you feel gives you the best chances of winning, Kas did and he won. You play to win the game, not get to 200/200 first.

zerg is freewin if they get to mutas and 3 base so I dont get all the whiners saying kas doing gimmicks bc really if you dont you are playing from a insane disadvantage.


then ur terrible, just look at gsl they are fine going up against mutas and more than 3bases.


There's a huge fucking difference between going to 3 bases safely and going to 3 bases on one spine and 8 lings then whining and talking like you have a clue when you die 50 seconds later.

Also, yeah, Servy, he's pretty bad, saw him low Diamond last time.

Hellions deny any scouting and that map has such a large base that you can't OL scout.

kas is a better player than idra overall I think so I dont see why all this whine is needed. I can win with zerg vs top terrans to if idd just make 80 drones everygame 1 spine, 4 bases and get all tech infrastructure and hope people dont attack me.

Wouldn't dare to say that he's immortilized Kas either, it was some run-of-the-mill BM that you can come across on the ladder.
Also, the fact that IdrA has said that he actually thinks that Kas is good sort of makes this entire thing less "omg idra so bm y u looose".
