Anyway, I don't think Minigun will make it past Life, Life might just be able to kill him with early pools and his lings alone. He could do that to anyone, really. :D
I thought Goswser vs Caliber was pretty good. Got to see a lot of SH action

rofl, have you even played hots at all? did you forget about storms owning hydras easily?

Idra was sitting there remaxing on mainly ultras against a voidray, immortal, templar army. He then sat in psi-storms with his hydras and did little to nothing with his vipers. He also had a massive bank and a base advantage. Even after the engagement he was up in supply and Mini was on the backfoot. He could have built another army (which was almost done) and attacked straight again before he had a bunch of storms again and just won.
I literally do not understand how my analysis is off when I'm saying exactly what was happening.

IMFenix. I feel like there is people that are new enough to following sc2 that they've probably never seen him play

But his (Minigun) was at 130 supply with a bank of like 300/700. Not saying Idra had the game won, but with 1.5 bank he could have remaxed on hydras and continue to play an even game (up until max supply airtoss=GG).

Glad Minigun won though, he is beast, like Top 50 GM HotS. Glad he is doing well competitively again!

He was behind perhaps, but it was still a game he could have recovered from. Boxer once said that even if there is only a 1% chance of winning, he will fight for it, because if he can grab that win, that 1% chance turns into a 100% victory.

Idra was trying to break minigun with that fight before airtoss kicked in, even if he pulled back once the fight started going south it meant Minigun kept his base up and was on VR/Storm and that map is nearly impossible to beat it on once it gets going due to lack of open spaces.

Based on that last game, he doesn't.

You mean the series where Caliber came to the thread to apologize for playing badly and we saw the biggest throw by Goswser ?

Minigun had no money......and pretty soon only 2 of those bases would be mining
Pretty sure zergs strength is they can quickly make units(any kind of units as long as you have the tech structure)
meh.......

They should use the resume from replay to have other progamers continue from there when the game is released and test if other zergs could win from that position.

Gotta admit hes a terrible player but he gives the fans what they want......
Right isn't this why people like him so much? Cause he just leaves a game he has a chance in to preserve his bad boy attitude i can't speak for others, but i personally like him for all the smart and hilarious stuff he says on shows like ITG and in interviews. and i kinda like his general playstyle, it's just always had obvious weaknesses and he's unfortunately become worse and worse =/

Hydras aren't the answer because of storm, he needed masses of corrupters / infestors but didn't have air upgrades (as he focused on ground tech for the middle game) and had invested in mainly vipers not infestors. He didn't have the gas needed to swap into anything that stood a chance vs VR/Storm.
