IdrA wins a ZvP! Stop the presses lads, rewrite the headline, scoff, and shelve it.

He knows something we don't or feast just has never practiced phoenix micro.

Feast was pretty clueless against the mutas. Also Greg was quite slow with his tech, didn't even matter.

That's a situation where the new Phoenix upgrade might have shined.

Easy when you find the only Protoss in the world that sits on 3 bases and wait to get counterattacked over and over and over again without doing anything to prevent it.

I'm trying to analyse why IdrA's macro has been so poor lately, it seriously looks like he has a 80% handicap on normal zerg macro. I mean his queen injects look fine and he's constantly droning but he somehow doesnt have enough larva, drones and units I'm used to seeing in ZvP.


The difference between IdrA and other similar zergs like Ret is that IdrA doesnt seem to think he needs to micro his units at all sometime. He just amoves and is often extremly costinefficient with his army.

I'm pretty sure this is simply not true, I've seen Idra do fairly strong micro in vT and vZ. The difference is that he makes some terrible decisions mid game because he literally always assumes that's he's behind during every game.


Idras armycontrol is definatly sub par compared to alot of other top zergs with a macro focus. If it is a lack of control, multitasking (doubt that) or simply a contious choice to focus on macro I do not know. But I must say that players like ret, drg, stephano seems to get about the same amount of units but focus alot more on controling them then what ive seen idra do.


He doesn't usually micro that much, but I really feel like people overstate it because of how bad his decisions are so he ends up in stupid fights where all of his units die.

Terrible game from Feast. Going half-assed for the phoenix counter never works. Either all out with the range upgrade or just pray to get storm.

And when you move out against muta-zerg you have to be decisive. If you are not willing to base-race, don't move out, because muta-zerg will always baserace

Even Feast can win with chargelot archon. See what I did there? Just because Feast seemed incapable of teching beyond blink or controlling army in more then one place at a time in that game, doesn't mean much.

I've had the range win me a few games in that situation. You end up losing probes still, but at least you can kill the mutas off.

There's actually nothing wrong with going Muta against pheonix openings, as long as it's only single stargate.

I think post-patch it's actually a terrible move, especially if you let protoss get to 3base uncontested. Their natural tech decision on 3base is to go fleet beacon for mothership anyway; the 7 phoenix Feast had, plus range, can kill absurd numbers of muta.
