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.

There's absolutely no way either of them were anywhere close to the skill ceiling in ZvZ. Nestea went mutas and was totally unprepared for IdrA's roach hydra timing, he looked totally confused. IdrA owned him that first game, and the second/third games were just as interesting.

Man at that engagement at the bottom of the gold ramp, those were some sick fungals by nestea, but idra had the surround from both the gold ramp and and the highway and i thought he was gonna win the battle, but those hydras just shredded everything apart it seems

Actually, every unit of Nestea was firing, so the concave really didnt mattered this time.

Man, Idra looked so good I thought he had that. Very nice (or lucky?) timing from Nestea to attack right as Idra was transitioning into hive tech though.

Very entertaining series! Although I'm sad Idra lost cuz I think he was the only one who had a chance against MVP :/

simply put, idra had more money but both idra and nestea were 200/200 maxed


Idra had more money because he was a GOLD BASE ahead for almost 5 minutes, and successfully stopped Nestea from mining at this third for quite a while.

"I really feel Idra is close to having the best ZvZ in the world"

Ok Artosis.

Almost beats Nestea two out of three. Nestea beats every other zerg in the world on a daily basis. Who is best zvz? Bongbong? Seriously.

you know after you max you need to have some revere because the battle come you need that money to reinforce your army.

This bodes well for the "actual" tournament this weekend though. Idra matched NesTea pretty well, and I definatly think he has a decent shot at winning the championship. Would have been worse if he has been severly outplayed which he wasn't. All in all really good matches, and it looks good for the rest of the weekend.

idra clearly is the best foreign zerg after that showing.

As an IdrA fan I went in to that series expecting Nestea to win anyway, but damn those games were impresive. I can't help but feel if he hadn't had that ball of roaches caught by a fungal at the ramp on the gold he may have been able to hold long enough to push the attack back with reinforcements. Really great series, well played by both.

this hydra roach vs infestor roach is a pretty interessting dynamic and a good sign for this matchup


I agree, the timing of infestors vs early hydras with a roach base behind either is pretty nice viewing, fair amount of depth to the strategy here.

I don't think I've ever been so disappointed by a result, god damn I thought Idra had it!

Idra was ahead. Fragile matchup though. Nestea seems to understand it a little better. Idra should've planned for an infestor switch as soon as he hit 200/200 the first time.

Didn't Nestea have 2-1 to Idra's 2-0? That makes a huge difference as well. I was sure Nestea would win when he held off those banelings by losing all his zerglings (if you haven't seen, I mean what I said)...seriously that was the craziest moment of the whole game. The only other explanation I can offer for Idra losing with that huge resource bank besides the fungals, upgrades, and spawn camp is that Idra was spreading himself too thin against Nestea's 3 bases--as others have said, too greedy.

Close games, really did think Idra would win, but oh well. Guess he will have to go for rematch in MLG tournement
