Lets face it, maybe MVP was practicing his macro, yes, but... at the end of the day everyone wants to win games laddering or not laddering... no one loses on purpose for practice in ladder, thats what they do when practicing against their teammates imo. Amazing play by them, the stream was incredibly crowded

Great game. But it felt like Idra was always on top in mid-game and late game. But against IMMvp you are never certain to win.
I had a good night of sleep.

No creep spread from Idra late game at all? Looks like he completely lost focus and felt very secure after crushing that initial push... not a good game by him in my opinion after that. But MVP was already so behind that it did not really matter... Well Idra did still play well, but with absolutely NO creep spread I think he forgot about one fundamental Zerg mechanic.

That was really awesome, Idra kept Mvp on his toes the whole game seemingly effective and still it was a very close one, when Mvp began all these guerilla drops!
Very entertaining to watch! =D
This is the way the world ends, not with a bang but a whimper.

It's funny but a bit unfair. That was the only noticeable mistake Artosis did in that long game and you should be thankful Artosis did this shout cast and shared it with the community.



I laughed hard at that pic

But when I watched the POV version, I didn't see the genius Broodlord, so thanks to Artosis, I am now aware derp. Also, when you see 20 marines under FG with 3 infestors nearby, I don't think, at this level, that it's worth watching them die even if it's entertaining. I mean, they ARE GOING to die under fungal.

Oh yes, because harassing two places at once with mutas, another with Broolords, while setting up Infestor traps and defending 2~4drops, ALL AT ONCE is what you call "losing focus".

He needed, like, OVER NINE THOUSAND apm to creep spread while doing this

great game, nice cast Artosis, but u missed the funal growth (


It's been said before, but the Fungals on the marines doesn't really need to be seen. Yes, it's freaking awesome to see a bunch of marines dying under some green goo, but Artosis is commentating on the match, and rather than watching the marines slowly die under the Fungal Growths, he decided to watch and comment on the sneaky Brood Lord wreaking his economy. Not very entertaining, but it's something he can talk about rather than 'HOLY CRAP, LOOK AT THOSE MARINES JUST ABOUT TO DIE, JUST WAIT FOR THIS FG TO WREAK THEM!'


it needed to be seen. you obviously saw the game live and knew what was going on already.

My feeling on the game was that MVP wasn't playing his best. His 2-base marine timing only denied his third, once, and didn't even check idra's natural (maybe he scanned). I felt that he could have done lots of damage there.

When MVP started to slow push with tanks he was careless, losing too many tanks and medivacs. He dropped his third late, maybe he was trying to allin after delaying idra's third. It completely failed. After his push fell apart I think he started trying and placed a third and tried to drop his way back into the game.

The rest of the game was a shit fight, Idra just needed a way to win. He was so far ahead when he killed the tank push and saw that he didn't take his third as early as he could have. He knew it, he just need to killing move. But since MVP is terran with his tanks, mules and super efficient marines, it's actually super hard to kill a dying terran.

The supply through-out was misleding, mutalisk and banelings are very expensive per supply, compared to the cheap marines. The game was only seemed close because of this and how hard it is to actually kill a terran. This game just shows how hard it is to win as zerg. Even Artosis laughed when he saw the 40-12 worker count. MVP should have lost earlier. I am crying; I am a zerg player, but this game is ridiculous.

As for Artosis I think he is easily the best SC2 commentator. He's knowledgeable, enthusiastic and hiliarious when he wants to be. He only talked about the game, he refrained from zerg instinct that alot of player have developed. It was entertaining. If I was casting I'd be sympathising with every zerg on the korean ladder and making horrible jokes about terran.

Seems reasonable to me. Why would one progamer for whom starcraft 2 is his purpose in life at this point in time, who just won convincingly the last GSL and who's already acknowledged as best Terran care about fine tweaking his skill for following competitions?

Ladder rank is way more important than that.

IMMVP played with like 40 scvs whole game?


He didn't build any planetaries so he was working with a ton of mules from all those OCs at expansions. You don't really need too many SCVs in that situation.

i am impressed he held on that long ... GG IdrA

Haha, I love how when some random no namer open's a thread with a commentary of this game it gets locked by the admins for "no content".

Then soon as a name like Artosis creates the thread it goes on for 18 pages!

So, is it really the content admins care for? Or just the big names?
Hmmm...



You mean artosis created a thread with content .. the replay casted which no-one else could have since idra doesn't give out replays only sometimes to artosis... I bet if someone had casted idra from his fpvod put some content in wouldn't have been closed either..

What? You base a good game on creep spread? Creep spread is like number 25 in important things for Zerg to do... it's great it something is going on but otherwise it's not important. Did you not notice the ridiculous amount of midgame harassment and harassment defense Idra was doing?

IMMvp is still better than Idra, just because he says GG before he leaves the game, something Idra with 99.8% certainty wouldn't have done


Yup I say gg every game therefore I'm the best player in the world.

Get a fucking clue kid. Idra took down the best sc2 player in the world.


Yeah, he did. However, winning in a tournament setting is vastly different than on the ladder. Not trying to take anything away from idra, he played great.
the UMP says YER OUT
