Let's have a nice clean LR thread folks! Beware that moderation will probably be stricter than usual, balance whine, player bashing and trolling will not be tolerated!

IdrAs build in game1 was actually quite terrible. Lets forget that he only made 3 banelings, but Nestea actually saw 4 or so zerglings being rallied to the top with his overlord. Surely that would make him suspicious and thats how he scouted the incoming banelings properly. With some months to practice surely you should be able to avoid such an easy thing as being spotted....

Let them compete in Code A qualifiers first, see if they survive that one.

Can someone tell me why MVP is considered the best player in SC2 history when Nestea has won like 2 championships??

They both have 3 GSLs actually, but MVP has also won an MLG, WCG Korea, WCG Grand Final, Blizzcon, and probably a couple of other random things I'm forgetting about.

And he always wins when he plays Nestea, which is often. He's clearly the better of the two.

I really think that was good strategy by IdrA. I think he basically considered that first series a throw away, so he plays his match agaist Lucky, which he expects to win. He then is then basing an MvP win over Nestea, and has some special builds planned to dismantle NesTea in their second series, thus advancing 2-1.

I am very sure I am completely wrong, but hey a guy can hope right? And lets be honest, that play was not Idra. It was slow, sloppy, and bad decision making. This way he is banking on winning 2 ZvZ's over a match against MvP.

I guess we will see how he plays against lucky. If it is COMPLETELY a much higher level than those games, i think i might be right.



you blew my mind away...


Haha its an interesting thought ay? Maybe thats what he and cella have been discussing? Maybe not?

most likely in between games cella just came in and told him not to do that again.


We are such IdrA fan boys for even considering it. but still...

like idra didn't seem that disgruntled after the quick losses, but we will find out soon enough.

god i have to get up in like 4 hours lol..

One thing I don't understand, how did Nestea know he could afford to pool so incredibly late? Surely he should have been afraid of 2 rax aggression that made Lucky look so silly?

Unfortunately I don't think either player is really committed to staying all that time in korea for the sake of a Code S spot if they earn so much more competing at other tournaments.

IdrA got out-mind gamed hard. Not much to say about the series other than that.

Game 1 -> IdrA: Nestea usually opens hatch first. OOPS he didn't. I guess I lose.

Game 2 -> Nestea: This is Grack. He doesn't cheese twice in a row. He will hatch first. I open speedling + baneling. He'll give up.

A better Zerg would've chosen strategies with better follow-ups should something go wrong.

Nestea's builds both games were safer than IdrA's - they might have put him behind if IdrA went the right strategy, but they would not have auto-lost.

Funny thing is Idras build in game 1 doesnt even beat 15hatch with mass spine <_>
