Barely?
um yes. mkp 2 rax into 3 cc and then it took idra 30min to turn his advantage into a win. big whoop dude can macro and turtle till teir 3 against terran and tech switch between ultra and gglords.
It took him 30 minutes to safely take the win, he was not in danger at any point. He could have won earlier with better control but that's about it, playing more aggressively against 2rax into 3 orbitals can backfire hard, just like Symbol showed us against reality this morning.

Just because it will somehow give the most fanatic fanboys a reason to say that "Indeed, IdrA was right, MKP is really bad", whereas IdrA is just trolling the entire time. I get that he doens't like MKP's style, but that's probably about it.
Its not half as bad as all the idra hater's coming out and posting senseless crap though.
He should have had corruptors ready for when the greater spire finished. Or more macro hatches for more lings. Losing with that much money isn't a good thing.

Yup agreed. He made pure ling which I feel was a bad mistake imagine if he had made all of them roaches with ling support and his infestors he could have held.
