Idra = JvZ of SC2? :O

Nestea has better ZvZ, but in the non-Korean scene the only zerg that's close to Idra's ZvZ is probably Dimaga.

I'd like to see this Idra take on Nestea. Or Dimaga for that matter.

But honestly, Sheth might have made a mistake trying to commentate while playing. I guess you need all your wits focused on the game to win at such a high level.

I caught the last two games and like u said you have to improve your ZvZ because idra's ZvZ is the best outside of Korea!

Both you guys are really owning it up!

I might put up 50 bucks for Idra vs CrunCher in a best of five... I wonder if they would play for that.

Watch the first game on Josh's stream right now. Amazing micro battles in the first 10 minutes.

I wouldn't be so sure actually. Idra has never played Nestea, but he hasn't lost a ZvZ in a *long* time.

Idra vs. Sen and Idra vs. Dimaga would give us a good idea of how well he'll do against Nestea.

Idra just has all the little details on his side. A little better macro, a little bit better micro and just a little bit better timing on his expansion, upgrades and so on.

ZvZ is still quite volatile and ladder is ladder, not that Moman doesn't have solid zvz

I don't think anyone would play Cruncher for only $50.

He really is the walking embodiment of "a lot of small advantages are as good as one huge one."

No chance.

Sheth!

Of the programers in SC2, I think you've got the best attitude!
Or at least how I'd like to be if I was any good. haha. :D

Great ZvZ games and you got some good replays to check out and be more awesome than you are now! I also enjoyed you on Day[9]'s Friend-day Wednesday a few weeks ago.

IdrA!

Looking gooooood!

I think the problem in those games was that Sheth accumulated too much games at start, in the banelings phase... what do u think?


I feel like IdrA's micro is what gave him an advantage. Sheth had some moments where his lings died to banelings when he probably could have micro'd out of those situations a bit better.


I'd say the real killer, in all three games, is that Idra's builds/timings are probably the most refined and efficient of any zerg in the world. This let him not only get more units out, but his tech was quicker as well (Roaches and infestors were fatally quicker in games 2 and 3). All the micro in the world most likely wasn't going to save Sheth those games. I think he'd have had to do some funky push/timing or cheesy pressure to really get an advantage on Idra. Also, if Idra's allowed to get a 3rd up without effort, it's basically GG already in ZvZ..
