    This is the cast by Artosis, it was originally streamed by Idra, and then uploaded to youtube, link on the actual stream on the comments section.

    Incredible match...


    Btw, I think that the general forum or the race specific is better than the maps/replays/mods forum, since it's more about strategy and what happens in top tier, than watching a replay, or posting a map or mod you made.(For kuv, in relevance to my other rep posting :p)

    Very, very enjoyable to watch. Satisfied with the outcome as well. Thanks for pointing this one out.

    Yeah this was a good one, but unfortunately, the result was obvious before viewing, duh...

    As a Terran, I enjoy the longer games when pros start doing multiple drops/harass; the quick action is thrilling to watch.

    I think Mvp was fighting an uphill battle after Idra sniped 2 or 3 tanks (and some medivacs I think) which weakened the early Terran attack as it constituted a good portion of his army at the time. After that, when Mutas get large in numbers and magic box, even Thors and turrets won't do, and it was very amusing to see that the entire mid-game consisted of Mvp being bullied around the map.

    Terran must push zerg back early on. It's interesting to see that, even though I am a noob, I'm losing to zerg for the same reasons as bigshots, not that our skill is in any way, shape, or form, comparable :p

    This was an amazing game, IMMVP had some epic splits vs banelings. Long high lvl macro game, Idra's snipe some tanks in very impressive fashion. Huge win for Idra, MVP has been beating everyone so I didn't expect Idra to pull this out.
