Please have some respect for the players, teams, and tournament. Criticism is fine, criticism without anything to back it up isn't so cool. Thanks! |

He's been doing pretty well at MLG and not much else for a while now. He used to be on sixjax, now on It'sGosu. Probably one of the top 5 American Zergs, not that that's really saying much.

that wasn't an all in.. Every protoss attack is an 'all-in' from IdrA's perspective... i know, but I'm sick and tired of people who have this idea, that any aggression is an all in. It's like people just want to see 2 pros agree to do "20 mins no rush" and just collide 200 food armies. Once again, I will say it, its an agression if he does 7 gate after plunking down his 3rd. JYP actually drop 7 gates and tried to win idra when it failed then he plunk down his 3rd and prayed idra didn't push against his 3rd. watched the replay. whats your point? that wasn't an all in by any means. Do you read the forums? Did you see how many times protoss players complain they can't get a third up? They post the replays I watched it and saw they did a 7 - 8 gate and failed it. This proves its an all in. If you don't plunk a 3rd down before dropping 7 gates, you will NEVER get a 3rd up since you went all out aggression for an early win instead of building up your economy. Actually vs Stephano style the consensus seems to be that you have to get 7 gates up just to have a chance to hold a third from the roach pressure, so, no, it doesn't always mean an all-in. Yes thats true, but ONLY if you plunk the 3rd down first before dropping 7 gates. The problem is protoss seems to think that they can attack first and expand later which is not how starcraft works. Expansion should always come first if you are not planning to all in. um no. Starcraft is a strategy game. Strategy is not exclusive to starcraft. Just because you attack and are aggressive does not mean "all in" You probably didn't even play bw. C+ iccup brood war. If you attack and are aggressive WITHOUT expanding then yes its an all in. been the way since brood war. want a game?
alot of people I know are C+ in bw, that's not that impressive, but ok you played bw. good job.
and not it hasn't been like that since bw. what JYP did vs idra was not "all in"

Actually vs Stephano style the consensus seems to be that you have to get 7 gates up just to have a chance to hold a third from the roach pressure, so, no, it doesn't always mean an all-in. There's no real consensus on how to hold vs the Stephano style. A lot of people are saying you have to take Whitera-esque thirds others are saying to just 2 base all-in against 3 hatch no gas builds. OK fair enough, consensus was the wrong word, but using 7 gates defensively to hold a third definitely is one of the more promising strats that have been discussed. Yeah, that's a true statement. I'm pretty sure JYP went for a 7 gate all-in on Shakuras and just took a 3rd after it failed though. That wasn't a defensive 7 gate. I could be wrong though. Idra just attacked too soon. If he just expanded and tech'd he would've destroyed him. This is what I have been saying! 7 gate first BEFORE expansion is an all in. I don't get why people assume not expanding is not a all in. That's so stupid!

What happened in the games between Sheth and KawaiiRice? I'm surprised that he got 2-0'd after beating Polt.
