I just tuned into the stream, wondering why it was only on game 2 yet the results were already online. Looks like it was just a hugely short series and now it's a rebroadcast.

You got it!

Yeah, this is no showmatch. You win here you go to MLG, you lose you don't.



My fault. MLG used to do Sunday showmatches so I got confused. If that's the case, then Idra just went full retard. :p

With how strong skytoss+storms is against zerg, if they go to the late game I could see an upset. But Life is like, one of the best sc2 player at the moment so obviously he's much more favored in the matchup.

Life lings ensure that lategame will never happen when he's around.


If Mini beats Life ez I think we should talk about "ZvP really impossible in HotS".

I can't wrap my head around the fact that Mini got the third base up without any problem whatsoever in that third game.

You don't let P take that base just like that.


Idra didn't pressure it, and when he found out about it, the simcity was set up and the cannon was ready, so he couldn't attack it with lings.

Guess this explains how they fill the rest of the Dallas bracket now that the open bracket is gone(big fail on that one MLG). I haven't been paying much attention. There are so many tournaments that I really only watch the Korean leagues, and then major weekend tournaments when the come around. I don't really have the time/motivation to watch much else.

Well, yeah. My point kinda still stands ^_^

Isn't it THE zergy thing to scout what the opponent is doing and then react to it?

Also nice having Mini posting in here - all the best at MLG

He retired a long time ago ... as a player. Now he is an entertainer, some people just haven't realized yet.

Yeah, it's a general rule to either punish your opponent's greed or match it with your own greed. Idra didn't do that very well, but I'm sure a player like Life will if scouted.

I think my main issue with ZvP in HotS at the moment is actually photon cannons, the second toss can afford to drop 5-6 cannons at an expo it becomes utterly immune to any form of zerg harassment. I can accept that zerg is lacking on good anti-air because it's a racial thing, I don't even mind the toss final deathball being unbeatable because that again is a racial thing but the inability to pick apart / multitask the toss death with a thousand cuts has really been bothering me.

I'd love to see better zergs then me working to re-incorperate baneling drops back into their play now that you have blinding cloud to stop stalkers blinking in and knocking the ovies down / forcing stalkers to burn blink to get out from under blinding cloud. Overlord of banes also allows you to still hurt the toss econ once cannons are up because you can still just drop directly onto the worker line if they don't react in time to pull the workers.


You say that as if 5-6 cannons isn't expensive. It's basically two additional nexii's worth of money, and unless you spend another nexus on pylons so you can't just snipe 1/2 pylons to shut the whole network down, it's a pretty flimsy defense. In ZvT people were/are willing to make 20+banelings to take down a PF, why not do the same thing for cannons?

That's irrelevant. He is like a right-wing politician : everyone hates or loves him but he continues his merry life leeching the minds of people away.
