Just dress up Polt and TOP in American sport outfits and change their names to Joey "Polt" Anderson and Craig "TOP" Wilson. Say they were born to Korean-American parents.

Do it, Mr. Chae.

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.

I guess that's the difference behind the difference.

lol cause liquibet doesn't have REAL money on the line. If this was Vegas with 1000s of dollars on the line, almost everyone will bet Nestea/MVP. It's easy to be biased when there's nothing on the line.

stephano's ZvZ actually doesn't make sense though. He expands at the same time get queens quicker and has the same units and money as his opponent. It actually doens't make sense

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.

What are you talking about? Neither side made any major mistakes at all. Game one was a straight build order loss (14/14 should hold that build every time, hatch first or 9pool can't hold it at all). Game two was Idra again playing a really risky macro build and Nestea doing a counter build and not fucking up.
