Kas hasn't really been impressive at any big LANs so far, and also just faces the European a-team mostly, where he isn't as consistent as he used to be.

what? Kas played final in Copenhagen games,lose to MC(when MC was in best form).


Also, he won WCG Ukraine when players like Dimaga, White-Ra, Strelok and HappyZerg attended.

I stand corrected in that case. But I still wouldn't call his tournament results as impressive as IdrA's, not by a long shot.

So the entire league ended with two mass hellion cheeses and one xel'naga auto win, but people are complaining about some mild bm instead...


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.


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


So the reaction to no information is to mass drones? Lol, please stop being biased.


You don't need roaches to stop a normal reactor hellion opening. IdrA prepared for what he saw, which was MOST LIKELY 6-8 hellions.

If you did not see, he had a spine, 3 queens, and 15 zerglings, enough to stop that.

Are you saying he should have went roaches, just on the OFF CHANCE that Kas made double factory and 16 hellions?

That's why IdrA dislikes early TvZ, you have to fucking guess sometimes.


How about keeping a ling infront of your ramp and walling OR putting your queens in position to keep potential Helions away.
He already lost to Kas building a buttload of Helions why take the risk to die to that again.


Hellions give map control for the ling comment, and queens need to be injecting. He had his spare queen at the ramp.


Yes they do but when the ling dies that you positioned infront of your base you can move one or more Queens to deny entry to the base via blocking the ramp. Then put spine(s) behind it and the Helions will not get in without taking heavy losses.

Lately I see more and more Zergs going roaches against Terran, wonder if this is the reason.

I am agree with you + overall kas is way more solide than idra against players weaker than him ( never less than 80% ratio in EU server since the beta of SC2)

Why everytime a fan favorite loses the topic has to change into fanboys rage?

According to the posts i assume Kas vs Idra was the Ace with Kas winning?

Fuck yeah Empire! Kas playing like a beast lately.

Kas beated idra with 2 fact hellion and now he is better? Please, use your non-existing logic for once (non-serious).

Congratz Empire.

How is the guy that has never beaten a single Korean and who has only one LAN victory better than IdrA? Are you actually being serious right now?

Stephano and Nerchio go roaches in zvt all the time- people are just pretending that building a roach warren would be sooo bad for idra cuz if you have a roach warren you have 0% chance in zvt to make a nice excuse for idra for playing bad

I'm not sure if ladder ratio is the best measure of who's more consistent. It's accepted that zerg is more volatile and susceptible to all-ins and terran rarely loses to cheese. Lots of ladder for pros is fighting off all-ins.
It's spelled LOSE not LOOSE.

achievements =/= level of play

it's a subjective matter, why can't someone think one player is better than the other when there is no true evidence. and no, the fact that kas doesn't enter as many tournaments as idra is not evidence cuz it has nothing to do with performance

idra has better achievements- this is a fact
idra is a better player- this is not a fact

it's so simple, try not to rage if someone doesn't think that your favorite player is the best in the world

Since some european zergs have an absolutly ridiculous ratio (Stephano, Nerchio...) i think that zergplay is less volatile than the early SC2 time.

And GoOdy/Adelscott beat NesTea/MVP too, do you honestly think that they are the better players? Though I will admit that Kas was prolly better then NaDa back then. But look, I like Kas a lot, he is my favorite terran streamer after GosiTerran, but really? Kas does not even come close to IdrA's tournament success, and it seems quite delusional to say that he is "more solid" because he cranks out so many ladder games.

Seriously +1 to this.

Wouldn't have even needed the ace match, but I can't believe IdrA doesn't cheese-proof himself. So damn greedy.

I don't blame Kas at all for playing the way he did to win those three games. He got roflstomped in the other 2 (longer, macro, standard) games, and you play to win, period.

Congratulations to Empire, but I wanted EG to win and I'm facepalming because EG totally threw that series.
