Held off the attack with roaches.

Now IdrA has to deal with the robo timing and HuK's expo's kicking in.

You really can't let Idra macro up. It seems like every game he loses is an early timing push. How many 20+ minute games has he lost? The one GSL where Lotze had the hidden expansion is the only one I can think of.
 
Holy crap, he was producing new units as fast as they were dying, his army never dropped during that first battle and HuK lost everything. So many drones just carried his army through everything, and then just started pumping corrupters for the incoming colossi. Great play by Idra that round.

Huk should've went for High Templar tech. It synergizes with his mass gateways better and works better against Hydras.

HuK delayed his collosi and second base for a looooooooooong time.

He went for the robo timing attack with immortals, but IdrA already had so many roaches ready, so with those small pushes and back and forth just buys IdrA more time to saturate his 3rd.

It's all the stuff you don't see, where IdrA was like 2-2, and making a spore as soon as he saw the DT shrine, while having 300 minerals off 3 base, WHILE fighting.

IdrA cleaning house and adapting real fast to HuK strat.

Collosi do great against hydra as well. Issue was Idra's macro ability.

Yeah, HuK was really behind in the macro game when he pushed with the Immortals and didn't manage to kill a lot of drones. That failed push set him behind a lot. Keep in mind that HuK probably wins a LOT of games with this type of push, so I don't think it was a mistake to push at that time.

Is there a different stream? This is really frustrating how it keeps pausing briefly on me.

There are several other streams. Go to TeamLiquid.net and look on the right side of the page for streams.

IdrA's roaches pop IN RANGE of the zealots that just get to his front.
So good.

He doesn't pursue, IdrA just sits back and chills, makes some more drones.
 
This is DC all over again. HuK going for these timing pushes and losing his units, then getting out-macroed. He won off that 4-gate rush in the first game with heavy pressure but Idra has switched to heavy roach play in the last two to counter things. C'mon HuK, you can do it! Switch it up and stomp his little Zerg face into the ground!

EDIT: Air weapons, go for phoenix into Carriers! Do it HuK, do it!

EDIT 2: Oh shit, that was definitely a misclick. No stargate in sight...

I'm actually surprised Idra seems to be taking these games so easily. HuK was amazing earlier in the day. Maybe he's just mentally fatigued?

oh perhaps spoke too soon. that VR could destroy

That's just HuK being HuK.

IdrA is good.
 
Oh HuK, it's okay. You gave me a mothership rush today that worked miraculously well, so I still love you even though you lost to Idra again. One day, my fellow Canuck. One day you will crush him!
