- MC came to cheer you on today, did he have anything to say?
He suggested cannon rushing. If the match went to the 4th game, I would have definitely done a cannon rush.

Hahaha. Ah, MC. Gotte love him.

also, IncA is lucky that he has the best P in the world as his practice partner, it definitely shows in his PvP.

I'm not sure if I'm completely mistaken and thinking of a different game but didn't he cannon rush on xel naga?

Yea i was thinking the same thing... he absolutely build 3 pylons and 2 cannons in Killer's mineral line of xelnaga...so i guess Inca doesn't consider that a cannon rush??? idn

"When zergs win, I would say you have to be a bit ‘lucky.’"

haha, you put it so diplomatically.

the correct way to handle that controversial line was

"When Zergs win, it is luck."

and then enjoy as your thread explodes into pages and pages :O

Yeah, Nestea has said zerg is underpowered and needs luck to win in multiple interviews. Idra is just really blunt, and face of english speaking zergs, so Nestea doesn't really get any hate for his comments on zerg.

He seems to agree with the fact that zerg is not UP.

Umm...
I think playing zerg right now is really difficult. There isn’t a solution that you can just find.

and...
There’s not much a zerg player can prepare mechanically for the match... When zergs win, I would say you have to be a bit ‘lucky.’

also...
Zerg isn’t the best race, but I will win.

You seem to hear only what you want to hear.

But everyone knows that all this ridiculous talk of imbalance and Zerg deficiencies is merely propaganda spread by IdrA!

Good interview.

Reading through this I was actually thinking that Nestea was taking the balance whine a little lighter than usual. Anyone who follows him knows that he complains about Zerg in pretty much every interview Turns out he's still his old self!
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Well according to pretty much every stat available, Zergs get "lucky" a lot.

the difference between nestea and idra is that when they talk about zerg balance nestea uses the word lucky, while idra goes along something like "he's an awful player"

if its official GSL interview i doubt he can say something like that, there probably are penalties for such statements i guess.

It's so sad that Zerg rely on luck to win the game, while Protoss and Terran have to win the game by their own true strength :D

ye i completely agree but i don't think even idra would say something like that in an interview if he was still in GSL.
