No player/caster bashing, or balance whining. Bans will be handed out like candy. (page 217)

No sexist jokes or anything of that nature either. Be mature people.

2500 minerals, theres your macro god. Pff, Idra does not have better mechanics than nestea.


you need gas to make roaches you silly little man. floating minerals is completely normal in zvz


But...but....u can max out on lings


If he wanted to maybe run into nesteas main and try to force a baserace or something risky like that, but lings would have melted to the army nestea had.

Only thing I could think of those minerals could be used for is mass spine defense, but then that's drones lost. Still better than losing though. Spines take too long to build however so that wouldn't have worked unless he thought of it in advance. I just think idra got caught off guard, he really wasn't expecting that roach hydra to be so efffective.
Yeah

Have not seen this good ZvZ since July vs Nestea. ZvZ can really be horrible or just outstanding!

Then you a) have not seen many ZvZ or b) are just blinded by hype :p

They are kinda standard, zvz is a great matchup if it lasts longer than 8 mins.

You have to go to the bottom and manually switch the streams, they're trying to leech viewers from Starcraft.

He had no gas. Use your eyes before complaining. Idra lost that game on decisions, not on macro or mechanics.


Isnt gas vs minerals management part of your macro though?


omg...please stop talking about things u obviously know nothing about

I know that have 50 extra zerglings is nice.


what happens when 50 lings meet roach/hydra?

Well they do better than the army without 50 lings for sure.

Well yeah of course, I'm not saying "LOL DERP WHY DIDN'T IDRA JUST PRESS HIS Z KEY LOL", but spending all your resources is what economy management is about.

You can switch between streams even in Quad View.

This guy NameSpace in Beta 1 is pretty good.

i mean nestea is in the open bracket and idra is seeded in the championship bracket ... ?

Been stated about 20 times, different tournament right now.

Expecting people to read +100 pages? It hasnt been described good enough by MLG or by the OT.

You need to change them. Where it reads "Halo" And "CoD" -- click them and change beta Sc stream 1&2.

Wait, I'm super confused. Why are Idra/Nestea even playing right now? Isn't Idra seeded really deep into the tournament due to his performance at previous MLGs?


This is the semifinals for the MLG Global Invitational, different tournament.
