As awesome as that was to watch, I don't see Idra taking the series with all-ins. And if it gets to a macro game, I don't think he'll be able to take out the deathball.
Idra is gonna lose (like ~90% chance). Huk has already beaten him and Idra doesn't change his style too quickly, also Huk has stomped other top tier Zs like ret so...
Idra beat him the last time if not for his hallucination-induced ragequit.
Yeah, but he lost game 3 no tricks. And game 2 was very close as well.

now I hope it's clear why people are excited about this
people hate the 'he beat me but I'm better', and I agree, it's sore loser bullshit. but it's also true.
LOL REPLAY TIME
I just finished this ZvP match, very entertaining one (moreso than broken streams and PvP) with a fucking ridiculous build by me.
Ling harass into hydralisks into muta harass into ultralisk/crackling/corruptor/hydra. Also note my insult-to-injury expansion blocking in the beginning.
And I hate to be hyping myself up like an asshole, but god damn I've never played this well before.

IdrA sees the stargate and goes for Roach Speed.
...
This would have been a perfect time for that fast burrow/burrow move timing!
EDIT: Doesn't matter apparently, HuK not attacking until Speed and Burrow Move are done.

Just got out of bed and thought for a second that they were replaying yesterdays Huk IdrA game due to tech issues again. Luckily the score tipped me off.
Edit: 2 seconds after I post this their game freezes.
I can't tell if Blizzard are being stupid, or just assholes.
But either way not adding LAN makes them fuckers.
Only thing that makes sense is that it has something to do with their legal issues with Kespa and ensuring all tournaments play through BNet servers so that they have complete legal leverage over any sort of esports tournies.

Well, they're trying to avoid piracy (despite SC2 being extensively pirated anyway) and third-party leagues. Neither reason is good enough not to have that special tournament client with LAN play that they talked about but as far as I know never made.

they have reasons which is honestly good enough for me
I do believe there will be lan eventually but I don't mean soon and I know they've said they have no plans. I just expect it as a necessity at some point. if they want this to grow, and they've said they do (and it's doing a damn good job already) I don't see how they can not step in to prevent disconnects.

Really, I doubt it's Blizzard that makes decisions like this. Activision is behind lack of LAN, and most other dubious decisions I suspect (like suing Kespa).
Activision is being both though. Not like this shit actually prevents piracy, in fact I'm pretty sure I read awhile ago that LAN was cracked in China (but no one can use this officially obviously).
All they need to do is send some intern with a self-contained Battle.net server box that they plug in to the LAN then divert the Battle.net hostname to that box. Bam, LAN play with no LAN client to be leaked.

HuK already had a cannon up at the time the push would've moved in
WHAT'S THIS?! FAST INFESTORS?!

but having a mode where you have to auth to bnet and then just basically host the game on your network
would be so fucking nice and i doubt that big of a hassle to add
and sure, it would probably get cracked
but i mean
bluhhhh

So the answer is... stupid.

I just expect it as a necessity at some point. if they want this to grow, and they've said they do (and it's doing a damn good job already) I don't see how they can not step in to prevent disconnects.

i know, i know, pirates, kespa, blah blah blah
but this shit is infuriating at times
good for D though
but seriously what was the point of leaving those ff's hanging like that?
edit note: lawl, I accidentally called the Sentries "ff's" wow..
wonder what made Huk move his stalkers back?
