ya not gonna lie. idra played like a idiot those 2 games. he could have easily just waited till his broodlords were done before mindlessly A moving into a choke full of marines, thors, and tanks -_-


i guess fungaling + neural parasiting pretty much everything is mindlessly a-moving. are you fucking blind?



NPing all the tanks and thors mean nothing when they all regain control again in 9 seconds. NP alone was not gonna save him since once the the tanks and thors regain control they will just anniliate everything in that choke. he had to wait for broods.

so yes he did mindlessly A move into a choke FULL of tanks thors and rines. like i said, NP lasts 9 seconds, so once the tanks and thors regain control his army will melt inside that choke, PERIOD. he needed to just be fucking patient and waited for the broods to finish.


what you described somehow doesn't sound like a mindless a-move



dont know how else to explain it to u if u havent seen the game.sure he NPed the tanks, but the rest of his units? he A moved them into the choke once he NPed them without realizing that it was to much for him to handle. bottom line is he was impatient. after the NP wore off boxer still had a shit ton of tanks left over and alot of marines being rallied to reinforcing the choke. a zerg does not fucking engage a terran in that tight of a choke period. he couldnt even get a good surround on most of the units and it was just funneled in.


perhaps he was impatient, and perhaps he made a bad decision. but he DID have a plan, and didn't mindlessly a-move. that's just silly


ya and he abandoned that plan for being impatient. any zerg player can tell u not to engage a terran army in a choke point like that at all. it just will not end well. idra made like5-10 spine crawlers to delay the push a bit longer while waiting for broods. but instead he atks into the choke instead of waiting for the broods to finish.

did u see the game at all? he literally threw the game away when all he had to do was wait like a few seconds more for broods to get done....

it was a bad position to atk, plain and simple. and atking into a choke point like that in any kind of situation IS mindlessly throwing ur army away. anyone can tell u that. he had broods on the way, all he had to do was let them finish.

Apparently using any units to attack anywhere at any point is "A-Moving".

I had no idea.

anger =/= rage


Uh, anger does not necessarily lead to someone BM'ing, but rage is anger, and anger is rage.

Well it seems likely that idra probably didn't even try that knowing his past actions. I mean even if he won 2-0 he is still relying on socke beating sen for this match to make a difference, which is was pretty damn unlikely. Idra just seems the type to not bother on pointless matches.

It feels right though, given the direction of the conversation; seeing has how Idra has suddenly wiped out the aura of his MLG performance.

Boxer will shock everyone by playing the match as protoss, will hallucinate a bunch of void rays and then proceed to destroy his own nexus, forcing the inevitable gg from Idra.

But on a serious note, I think Boxer 2-1.

I'm rooting for boxer simply because it would be great to see him at the offline finals. I'm pretty confident the gracken will be able to make it through the playoffs. Boxer, not so much. Hes kind of erratic and especially with lag against the top tier players in the playoffs I'm not sure how well he will perform.

Actually does anyone know if the playoffs are online/offline? I'm just assuming they are online here as it seems the more likely arrangement.

So boxer winning really seems like the best outcome for me, as a fan of both players.


i agree

i like watching both players' game

rooting for idra maybe mc to take the series though

OMG HAHA

Good job Boxer! See what 14 hours of practice a day from someone as experienced as Boxer does :D


Yeah, it must take hours and hours to be able to build bunkers, like in game 1.


It must take hours and hours of slacking off to not realise that those two bunkers didn't matter....

Run zerglings around around them and ignore them to cut of reinforcements.... build one spine crawler out of range and have it poke them to death.

And expand while that is happening. Then continue playing.
Not lol run a few lings at them and wonder why they don't die.


i woulda loved to see a spine built out of range... marine in bunker have range 6, spine also 6 right? i'm very curious where the spine could be placed.
