While Idra did have an advantage past a certain point early on, MVP still made a good game of it. I was impressed with both their play: MVP for being able to still put up a good fight, defending and harrassing for a solid 30 minutes (or whatever) while being behind, and from Idra for being able to deal with it and still close the game out. Yes, he had an advantage, but I would bet MVP could have easily made a comeback vs. many other top zerg players.

He's not known as the best player in the world because he's incapable of making a comeback, especially one that could have been pretty reasonable in this game. ^^

Still, mistakes from both sides, of course...

Fun game!

Seemed like a bad decision by IMMVP not to push through the "smiley face" expansion between the bases, as that would have been an efficient way to pin Idra's mutas to his base and allow for an earlier third. The mid-game contain/push that IMMVP was attempting to set up would have done the same thing to Idra's mutas, but some careless army positioning allowed his medivacs and tanks to get sniped for free and the contain/push failed, and the mutas harrassed him to death.

at about 14 minute mark (game time not youyube video time) IdrA snipes 2 medivacs and 2 siege tanks with his mutas (and 1 more medivac 30 secs later)
this means less pressure and easier expanding
I am impressed MVP resisted this long being 2 bases down (again IdrA denied his third for as long as he could with his mutas)
Bottomline, game was over after MVP's blunder losing 3 medivacs and 2 tanks

Yep, exactly.

I think the contain/push would've been easier going through the "smiley face" expansion route, being shorter, the narrower passage disallowing any ground army flanking (making the tanks more effective as well), and he could've expanded to the smiley face immediately (making a PF there as well would make the push even stronger, plus the turrets being built there would have defended his smiley expo and push simultaneously).

Oh god all this IdrA was in advantage the whole game after he sniped the medivacs/tanks story... 90% of GSL zerg players would STILL manage to crumble under MVP's multi-base harass.

I dont understad what is so great with this game? I calculated all the drops in that 40 minutes game, and there was like 4 drops and only 1 or 2 of them was considered real "drop job" other than harass with one marine. There really was not noticeable multitasking action in the map.

And besides that, the game was pretty one sided, MVP just refused to leave or he had no idea that he had already lost the game long before it ended.
