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.

One word, spinecrawlers.

Yeah, make Spine Crawlers and replace the drones with.......wait you're out of larvae.

You make spines prior to the battle, when you're beginning to bank money. Not when you've already lost your army and are sitting on 2k+

You make those spines prior to the battle when you're maxxed, prepping for an engagement and banking larvae for the re-supply when you're at a point you can't lower your drone count or risk falling behind your opponent? Nope.


God, please stop talking.


When you have the massive lead Idra has, lowering your drone count and getting broodlords, is the best option. With broods AND spines Nestea cant do anything, since he was so far behind.

You please stop talking.

This is the global invitational tournament, and not affiliated in any way, shape or form with the actual MLG providence championship bracket.

in zvz, if you're around max, so should the opponent given equal skills. Meaning, you can either attack, or get ready to defend. Either cases, you need your bank to quickly remax. ZvZ attacks can hit at anytime. And if you paid attention, Idra was actually slowly adding spines at the gold But it does nothing because Nestea went down the other side...

I agree, but Idra was holding an advantage going into the late game after destroying Nestea's first army. Hence, he banked up a lot more money due to having more economy/maxing earlier, I presume. If that extra money isn't being spent on tech or extra larvae production, it has no value.

If you don't have larvae you can't build spines cause you have to replace the drones :p


Larvae shouldn't be a problem when you're floating minerals.


larvae IS the the problem when you're floating minerals...


Your supposed to build more hatcheries for more larvea, but...

This is a different tournament, the MLG Global Invitational, these are the semifinals.

The MLG Pro Circuit National Championship games are also being played, and Idra/Nestea/MvP/Naniwa will all be playing in that according to their seeding/brackets.

Man NesTea has the easiest bracket section. There isn't a single other Korean.

His opposition is KawaiiRice, Machine and TLO (yes those are the 3 best players in his section).

So... looks like NesTea's going to hit the championship bracket.
Correction:

Kawaiirice has the easiest bracket section. Ezpz into winner bracket in championship bracket.

Idra, you were 50 supply ahead, why the hell didn't you press your advantage and attack? The burrowed roaches and gold base harass was some impressive maneuvering, but you should have just killed him ffs.


going for a kill move on cross metal is extremely risky and is a great way to throw away an advantage. idra had the right idea, just missed his infestor timing by a bit. nestea loses that game if he attacks 30 seconds later.


No, nothing is risky when you're 50 supply ahead. Giving the opponent the ability to remax is a great way to throw away an advantage.

Agreed. Both Idra and Nestea played incredibly, and while criticism is good the amount of player bashing is a bit of a shame.

You mean drones, don't you?

2k minerals in the bank is not much, that is gone really fast.
