ya, well at the time idra easily destroyed the air attacks and had a nice counter into Avenge's expo...and then idra threw unupgraded lings into a bunch of FF and +2 zealots while rallying in individual mutas vs pheonixs...

Assuming it's not masochistic, the idea is that if a Protoss is on two base if you get mutas out you basically cannot lose. You have the economy and production to crush anything they do and they absolutely cannot ever take a third. Perhaps it was a giant misread, when someone is doing a +2/blink/phoenix all-in, you don't make mutalisks. | ||

mutas are fine against everything protoss has, especially with such a low phoenix count. if he held off that attack, he would have had more than enough gas to just overpower anything avenge could make. I don't know why idra didn't make some roaches | ||

Infestor/Ling ? Oder maybe try to engage him before he is close enough, to make him waste FF energy. | ||

It was terrible and caused his loss, simply put. The guy was going stargate into blink timing, mutas in that situation make no sense. They are fine if you can hold a faster 2base timing from protoss like 4gate +1 with or without void rays, but against what Avenge was doing they plain suck. I guess Idra expected him to take a third rather than allin, or thought the mutas would come out in time to pin protoss back and avoid the allin altogether, but im not sure. | ||

He just wanted to use it again because everyone started crying "muta imba" again. Better to go with the bruteforce roach/hydra, fits him better LOL @ "Brute force roach/Hydra" ![]() | ||
