The best thing about that video is Idra's super strange split. =P Actually nah, it was the epic moment / feeling during the loading screen combined with the music + seeing who the opponent was. The music goes so incredibly well with the loading screen + split.

Thanks, looking forward to watching.

I watched it live and then again when Artosis posted it lol, that was one sick game. Harass all over, big battles and everything. What I expected out of the finals lol.

Evasive is right.
MVP still played sick even if he wasn't at the top of his game. That marine splitting, + harassing was intense.

Idra played at the edge of a knife the entire game. One small mistake and mvp would have instantly sniped out his natural and been in his main for a gg. Other posters have pointed out that if mvp had just run up with that stim early push it would have been over, no question, especially with his micro. Lings only wouldn't stand a chance.
Even playing flawlessly throughout midgame Idra almost lost again when a lot of drones were taken out.
It's easy to see why zergs aren't winning tournaments or doing well in TL opens, it's just so easy to make one mistake and have 20 m/m or whatever in your base that is unrecoverable from. One bad drop, one anything and it's over. Terran loses almost the whole army multiple times and is still just one drop or one mistake from the zerg away from a win.

MVP wasn't even playing his game. That was obviously a move to read Idra's late game strat. Hope he didn't give too much away :/

watched this game on his stream, not live, but gave the same effect, the chat went crazy. it was such an insane game, hopefuly with more macro orientated maps (like this one) we will get more crazy crazy games like this one!

PLEASE don't turn this into a BALANCE WHINE thread. So many good threads have devolved into them I would hate for this one to fall too.

Thanks for the post, a very awesome game!
I don't get why IdrA was losing faith in Zergs. In that one Interview, he basically said all Zergs are lucky to be near the end of the GSL. Clearly, IdrA has what it takes, he did a great job.
Anyway, that was nice. gg.

They should talk about how IMBALANCED ultralisks are in their 2nd episode of IMBALANCED.
|
haha, yeah Ultralisks are so great. Also, that first big battle looked like it could have been an SC2 cinematic.
XD

And how much banelings/mutas died ? Those 35 (25 in fact) marines killed like the double of their worth, yeah, that split was one of the best I've seen too.
Try to survive with 25 marines against 17 banelings in that situation, you'll understand.

Unless people have spoken to MVP on the matter and got an answer they believe, then they're talking out of their asses. I'm sick of the comments saying "oh he wanted to play a macro game" or things of that nature. To say those people are speculating is an understatement. They're hoping it's the case just to discredit the victory.
No extra discrediting is needed. You say, "It was the ladder. Was a great game but it doesn't mean much. GG." That's all anybody should say about it in terms of criticism.

i was suprised at Idra's horrible creep spread all game long.
