I'm very disappointed. I haven't played that many notable matches on the ladder so far (I have played a fair amount of these in tournament but not that many on the ladder) I've played players such as vibe, naniwa. But to play versus IdrA was like a cherry on the cake.
The game starts, I am streaming.I'm feeling a bit nervous because I want to show my audience that I can compete with such a beast.We spawn on Xel'Naga caverns. I type “gl hf” even though I barely ever type it anymore these days... no reply. I wasn't expecting one though, since it is IdrA I was facing .
I scout with my probe, he goes for pool and gas, a pretty standard opening. I open with a very standard build: 9 pylon 14 gate 15 gas 16 pylon 17 gas 18core or something like that. I've been having a bit of trouble against zerg when I go 3gate FE. Since we're playing on xel'naga caverns, I did not want to go stargate, I felt like DTs would come too early for him to have a third since he has to clear the rocks...
I decide to go with 4gate pressure into expand. This is when the sad part of this game happened =/ My probe sitting at his natural in case the 14hatch survived was patiently waiting on the left side of the map, patrolling and being confused on what to do.
No lings were trying to find him. Bob the probe (Yes I call my probe Bob) was not hunted. He was not on the bounty list. In fact he was not even on IdrA's "to do"-list. After watching the replay, I noticed IdrA sitting with his lings at the watchtower for 30 sec (2 at each), sending one to my ramp and using the 3 other lings to kill the rocks blocking his third.
I asked myself... “is IdrA drunk?” “Did IdrA just got out of bed and is playing sloppy?” “Did someone pay IdrA to ladder on his account?”
Well, no matter the reason, if he's not going to be careful and not going to poke in with an ovie, I will all-in him and win.
I was very anxious when I saw a bunch of roaches at the natural when I poked with my army, however the entrance at the natural on xel'naga is easily covered with 2-3 forcefields which made his army easily beatable.
I can assure you that Greg "IdrA" Fields was not pleased with the game at that particular moment.
I do regret all-inning IdrA. I wish I could show my viewers that PvZ is a winnable match-up even when played to the mid/late- game.
Maybe one day I will defeat IdrA in a macro game, but until then I will keep queueing ladder matches in search of brighter days.
He didn't glhf, so it's okay to all-in him, no need to feel bad in the shower
Not really cheese I guess. At least he did his normal rage, instead of typical "meh, you're protoss, I'm not supposed to win anyways," so congratulations with that
hahaha i loved your celebration. don't be disappoint. you must be a shark in water. if he's going to put bob in the corner you can't take that sitting down.
You're trying to get more attention, no one cares enough about you to give you more than a passing thought. Stop taking advantage of other people's success.
K, sorry to be that guy but: Are you doing this for any reason other than to gain attention?You 4 gated idra...woohoo? A lot of people do that; how is this worth posting lol.
Haha, I mean, you did just 4gate him, but it's not like it's against the rules. It's understandable that you're happy about it, and hell, it's your blog so what better place to write about it? The blogs section is indeed for blogging, guys.
Grats on your win desrow, and your idrarage. Receiving Idra rage should be a feat of strength achievement, haha. That achievement would totally be codeable too, because it'd just have to detect if Idra talks or not within the last 5 seconds of a ladder game. =P
Idra's overlords need to get off their fat butts and scout! He wouldn't have been surprised by your huge army is they did. Phat rush. I'm a really big fan of your stream, and your tremendous play inspires me a protoss.
Awesome game! I watch Desrow stream all the time, trust me he does usually just pressure /semi fake the 4gate into an expand and causes the zerg to over react and make way too much army and not enough drones so it actually works really well... not his fault that IdrA decided to be way to lax and open himself up for an actual all in 4gate.
If you don't like the post/game then just move along and stop trolling--
Of course he is posting this to get attention and there is nothing wrong with that lay off the haterade.
Nice game, if you have not checked out Desrow on stream you are missing out on some real funny shit and some good high level protoss play.
Not to mention some epic qoutes, and a lot of adventures of BOB the probe.

lol, you have a hard time beating mid masters zergs on ladder, i dont think you have a chance against idrA.
What's with people making topics like this today? You won a game, you helped show someone how to defend cheese... it's a ladder game. I know IdrA has dozens of these a day; that's all his stream is.

And no foreigners can beat IdrA in a macro game consistently, sadly. :/
Good job man. I don't know what all the hate is about, really. It was entertaining, to say the least. And seriously, is it just me or are the posts on TL getting more and more retarded and immature lately?
It's entirely understandable to be happy that you have reached an MMR that allows you to be matched against the very peak of the server. People that read blogs and are upset that it's mostly personal stuff shouldn't be in the blogs forum.

Is there a reason you re-posted the exact same post with an extra sentence you could have just edited into the first?

grats you succesfuly cheesed idra.
I think you're getting caught up on the "I cheesed".
It's more about "cheesed Idra".
I highly doubt people would care as much if you cheesed another top Zerg. Idra almost asks for it though the way he reacts every time lol. Besides, he still needs practice stopping it apparently.
This is a blog. Blogger writes whatever he wants within reasons. Diary, random thought, a drawing, w/e.
It's not in SC2 General section or SC2 Strategy section. He posted a video and wrote "I will become a great protoss who will defeat a really good player, IdrA, in a macro match".
4gate doesn't exactly require too much skills to pull off. I wouldn't be proud of any 1base victory in any matchup even, except maybe pvp. But obv OP is goodish if he can be matched against the mighty one.
First I thought you cheesed him, and he said "Apologize for playing that race" at the end of the game, and that is why you made this blog entry. That would have been way funnier, but oh well.
Did the people posting here even read the blog to begin with?
He is not proud of winning a cheese game, he just thought IdrA's reaction is funny. Marc clearly stated he wants to be able to take "real" (being Macro) games off IdrA one day in the not so distant future. To all "attention-whore"-callers: This is a blog [def]. A blog is meant to contain random thoughts, rants or stories of it's author(s). Given that, how would this post be inappropriate?
On-topic: lulz were had. Very entertaining video, although I spill my drink every single time close to the end when you get exited about your win ^__^
Look forward to more of these entertaining posts/videos!
what kind of an accent do you have? sounds like a parody of a fat canadian nolife. (no offense) btw never yell at the end like that. broke my headphones

the classic example how every zerg rage in zvp 4gate >_>
if you look at it from the pov of idra, how the hell is he gonna react to your build (you denied all his scouting possibilities, and you go whatever you want after the 1gate1core)? All he can do is make a blind guess ie do a coin flip. admittedly the engagement was bad but overall, sadly, like idra said, this is game is just retarded (specifically at the situation).
i mean, your timing and everything isnt even that tight (your 2nd and 3rd round warp-in timing are not sharp at all), so i really have no idea what makes you so happy about the win against the mechanically perfect Idra.
desrow, i watch your stream sometimes and kinda like it but now i may changed my mind. i mean, posting a blog like this is really not cool any toss with that strat slaughter any zerg on xelnaga anyway.

This is a classic example of Idra fanboyism allowing someone to overlook so many obvious flaws in Idra's play: hmm I scouted 3 chronos being used on the warpgate tech, well better not worry about sending in an overlord to see if he's 4-gating (the most common build with so many chronos on the core), well I saw a nice little scouting probe walk to the left side of the map no need to check for proxy pylons...
I believe the mechanical perfection to which you attribute to Idra would have helped him recognize such an obvious attack.
So what form of scouting did Desrow actually prevent that made this impossible for Idra? he saw all he needed with his initial drone/ scouting the front with lings, granted Desrow was ready to stop any overlord scout for a bit but he backed off after a few seconds, do you really think 2 sentries can kill an overlord before it is able to move 2 pixels over? I find it hard to believe this was in any way a coinflip.
Desrow go spend more effort in getting better than bragging, it doesn't matter how much attention you get, how many practice game you manage to take off your practice partners that you post, at the end of the day your tournament results is what determines how good you are. Before you win anything you are like the rest of us, a piece of trash compare to the likes of idra.
I don't think he can even be consider mediocre base on his record. And he doesn't have the right mind set to achieve anything major right now, He is too far into superficial BS like taking a game off some big name than actually improving his game.
I didn't particularly like this blog but after going through the posts people are seriously really mean. Wth is up with you guys? Let's not attack the actual guy ffs.

Not just this blog, desrow post replays of him beating big names without posting all the other replays of him getting own over and over by the same guys in those replays. He's dishonest and seeks attention.
"Lolol I'm able to 4 gate IdrA and win so can you please give me some attention kthx". Nah, this is a bit puppy-ish despite being %70 true.
"Yao, so I beat IdrA, kicked the shit out of him with my 4 gate, nao, gimme some attention. I'm an esports badazz". This is kinda better, at least %71 true. Come on guys, give him a chance. He got the shades at least.
Topic is "I cheesed/all-in'd IdrA" and then in the text you write 4gate into expand. Way to go! Looks like a brag-post disguised in a "satire". I can do that too!
Idra cheesed me on ladder but I didn't get a blog post!
First off, I wanted to say I did not make this blog in attempt to brag about my win. I believe in sc2, anyone can take a game off anyone around my "level"
I upload various games vs known players on my youtube channel just like Destiny does in order to improve my stream's experience.. Missed a sick game of me on the ladder? well you can catch it on youtube !
I do not believe I am better than any good player I beat on the ladder because ladder is ladder. If I beat someone in a bo3 or bo5 in a tournament, now that's a different thing. Thanks to everyone for your opinion, I will try to make another blog in the future with a lot of controversy .
rofl this is blowin up. oh desrow is streaming. while you guys are hating on him feel free to tune in to his stream so you can get even more mad and post even more ridiculous comments about his weight. it'll be good times
hey desrow, please don't take this as in insult. When you're fighting with your units in small fights, try and focus on micro a lot more. you seem to just send the units back in groups which isn't really micro and you should know this being from wc3 ^^. nj beating idra and I hope that someday u beat him in bo3.
btw I think that you hurt yourself more than anyone by posting this blog. Mainly because you now have one less good zerg prac partner for when you get to the top of NA and we know how rare good NA zergs are.

just an fyi for people. He was stream sniping (stream cheating) Idra. Auctally admitted it while stream sniping another player. and guess what he did, he did a 4 gate against that player to.
I was in the chat and he promptly entered the channel to brag about his win, then went on to insult myself and the player in question. His manners are horribad and really should not be tolerated by the community.
In saying this, he seems to have a personal hatred of myself. So when he reads this I know i will get told to go die in a pit again like last time :D
So it seems like his most happiest 4 gates are where he stream snipes. Makes a ton of sense
LOL@all the hate. I think he made a smart move. You can see that Desrow could've expanded (he had 400 minerals for an expansion timed), but saw that his probe was still alive and that the overlord wasn't scouting, so made a forward pylon and warped in more units. He decided to go for a 4gate rush at that point, which was quite smart. Idra's fault for not scouting there. It's odd too since he usually sends his overlords into his opponent's base.
God I can't stand shitty image macros. It makes me feel like this is 4chan or something. Thank god for the bans. Read the 10 commandments dumbasses. >_>

Stream sniping isn't bad? thats a new one. He has a second monitor set up to watch another player's stream while they are in a match. That is an issue, and a mjor problem. Cheating if you ask me.

Wow cool man, you know there is nothing wrong with stream sniping right? Please don't make it seem bad when it isn't.
Are you defining stream sniping as watching someone stream as you play against them, so that you can see there base and all they have?
Isn't that stream sniping?
You think there's nothin wrong with that?
EDIT: though the evidence presented is pretty questionable. If he is stream sniping, that's a big issue IMO.
Stream sniping is not the same as stream cheating.
Stream sniping is when you search for a ladder match at the same time as the guy, whose stream you are watching in order to get a match with the person.
Stream cheating is when you use the stream to get information about you opponent that would otherwise not have gotten.
So, stream sniping does not imply stream cheating and they are not the same thing.

I thought it was a nice post. I don't see what's wrong wanting to share a game where you win against a top player. I also think it's lame that so many people attacked you personally for writing in your blog. I enjoyed it! Keep up the games and the passion

Stream sniping actually sounds pretty cool :D
Though this game was neither sniping nor cheating, apparently.
So, EGIdra lost to Desrow. And people are bitching about it saying Desrow can't beat him/didin't deserved it? Then why the hell did he won?
U people are just mad becouse becouse your "loved" one lost to a 4 gate. His own fault, who told him to drone so hard? To not kill the probe at the main?
People keep saying "if, if, if". Hell, IF my mother was a pig she would have 6 tits. What's the point? If doesn't change reality. Witch is, RAGEDesrow played better than EGIdra on that game. Swallow it. Live with it.

Do you have actual evidence of him cheating via streams? This is the equivalent of maphacking, so it's a fairly serious accusation of a well known player.
If you have no evidence of him actually cheating when you make a claim like this, it only destroys your own credibility. People did it when Cruncher stream sniped Idra once and the "incriminating" screenshot actually proved Cruncher's innocence and got a horde in rabid fans banned.

He's just having some fun...come on, now.
One can reverse your argument and say that anyone could have won versus desrow if he/she had just moved an overload into the base and scouted...and this is true. Desrow went for a blind all-in, and a Z who scouted it would easily have prepared properly and would have crushed him. And anyone can win with anything...that's just rhetoric.
And the reason desrow worded his entry as he did was this blog. It was sort of a parody. -__-;

Actually, he not just 4 gated Idra, he WON with a 4 gate and made Idra ragequit. That should be a feats of strengh, for real. And it WAS worth I mean, just look at the mess that this comunity made, that's worth enough, i'm loling at this time becouse for the coments! So funny! OMG!!! Hahahaha =D
People aren't bitching about him beating IdrA, it's how he posts a whole blog about it when he "faked" a expo and then 4gated. Anyone can win with that. Maybe if he didn't downplay Idra so much in his post and just type out his real feelings instead of passive-bragging about it people wouldnt bitch that much.
He's just having some fun...come on, now.
One can reverse your argument and say that anyone could have won versus desrow if he/she had just moved an overload into the base and scouted...and this is true. Desrow went for a blind all-in, and a Z who scouted it would easily have prepared properly and would have crushed him. And anyone can win with anything...that's just rhetoric.
And the reason desrow worded his entry as he did was this blog. It was sort of a parody. -__-;
Yea I know, but I just stated why people are bitching. Jumping on IdrA like that isn't wise in this community ^^
And yes, there is a mature language filter in options.

Ah, okay :D
The silver lining of it is that whenever Idra loses, he loses spectacularly

To the user talking about stream cheating. I watch Desrow almost everyday. I enjoy his stream he is funny and very entertaining. I would like to understand the evidence of why you beleive he stream cheated, because that just sounds like you are looking to ruin a players name.
If you want the video you will notice in the opening hes says.. "What the..." He was not expect to play Idra he was totally surprised and took it very seriously. If you watch his stream you would see in most of his games he is always talking, joking, making funny voices or commenting about the game play. He barley says a word well playing Idra. Near the end you hear the sigh when he realized he had won. Then the pause and his celebration of the win.
Does that really sound like someone that was stream cheating???
Also this is his blog, He is blogging it so his fans can watch the win and see how he is improving his game play. This was not an attack on Idra as it seems some people are taking it as. Desrow has a lot of respect for other plays and when people ask him where he thinks he ranks he is always very humble. maybe even to much so.

lol, you have a hard time beating mid masters zergs on ladder, i dont think you have a chance against idrA.
he doesn't even play mid-masters zergs on ladder, and why are you such a hater? good lord if you don't like the fact that he is gloating over 4gating idra, then don't read the blog

I was in the chat and he promptly entered the channel to brag about his win, then went on to insult myself and the player in question. His manners are horribad and really should not be tolerated by the community.
In saying this, he seems to hate a personal hatred of myself. So when he reads this I know i will get told to go die in a pit again like last time :D
So it seems like his most happiest 4 gates are where he stream snipes. Makes a ton of sense
Just FYI people, this masterbreti guy is making up most of his stories as he goes on. I was in this thread and he promptly entered it to spread lies and hatred, then went on to insult the player in question and his fans . His manners are terribad and he really should not be tolerated by the community.
In saying this, he seems to have a rigid hatred towards reality. So when he reads this I know he will feel happy to get the attention.
So it seems like his most happiest posts are the ones where he spreads false rumors. Makes a ron of sense.
just saying....
Player in Question is VTFuture. If you want you can ask him yourself.

Couldn't find VTFuture but found his friends.
Do you have evidence?
...
I played VTFuture in hopes of stream sniping idra. That game of me vs future happened the 10th of june. I was trying to snipe idra and I ended up matching future. After playing future, i ended up going to his stream to see if he wrote anything about the game in the chat. He didn't. End of the story I don't stream cheat, I only stream snipe when I'm bored / not streaming/ playing the game myself. Stop "accusing" me of stream cheating -.-

There's always been an option to "Disable Maturity Filter" in the options lol xD
Why is a frkin blog getting so much hate? There was a guy blogging about like every 4v4 game he won for a while, you think it isn't okay to post a blog about beating idra?
Glorious, always love to see zergs lose, to imagine their rage... but now he even shows it! Brilliantly executed 4gate, got the idra rage and all. Well done, chap.

People get temp bans for writing worthless comments like " lol" or other memes like "cool story bro". Basically if you've got nothing to say yourself then resist the urge to post and you won't get sanctioned.
Also, this thread makes no sense if you didn't see this thread first.
I love it how there's something about Idra that just sparks controversy. Really wasn't expecting anything like what the comments say after reading the blog. Makes my day. Nice game Desrow.

The moth is told about the flame but flies dangerously close anyway.
I enjoyed this blog, it's a shame others aren't. Beating IdrA is a pretty good accomplishment, means you can stand toe-to-toe with the other pros (maybe not consistently, but you can take a game off them [probably not in a tourney though]), if I beat IdrA I would sure as hell blog about it. Someone made a blog about PokeBunny saying 'hi' to him... this blog has a lot more merit than the 'hi' blog.
Great post. Well written, entertaining, and humorous. I've only been playing sc2 for a few weeks now, so I'm new to the community, but if the responses to this blog are any indication of the quality of the community...
It's like people don't understand how a player's personality creates a need in the market for these types of posts.Idra is everyone's favorite person to hate, a quality that he has--intentionally--crafted for himself. Again, i've been watching and playing sc2 for 3 weeks now and already hate Idra, in the same way I hated Lleyton Hewitt or Rex Ryan. Personally, I'd love to see every loss Idra takes its own blog written as well as this one. I just like to see him lose. If Idra was the only american left in a tournament, I'd still route for the other guy because something--maybe everything--about his demeanor irks me. I'm not alone. People enjoy watching crybabies cry.
Honestly i have no idea why this even matters, and who cares that you allin/cheesed idra. I mean even if you won a macro game or showed amazing game sense or just got a come from behind victory i think i would have cared more, but still not enough for a thread about it.
This is probably only getting replays because it is idra, and that is just stupid.

That's what happens when you are a month late on a joke. It flies right over your head.
On that note, how do people find these threads and bump them. This is the second long term bump on a this thread after it got buried pages back in the blogs.

consistency my man. beating him once or twice with a rather "unusual" strategy isn't exaclty standing toe-to-toe. in a best of 10, i'd pretty much bet that idra would take it 9-1 or 8-2.....
Hey Desrow, why there is not an commercials at the beginning and at the end of this video? We were used to your stream which generally results in 10 commercials and one match
Call me suspicious but the likely hood of someone simply "sniping" to play someone seems kind of like bullshit and rather unlikely. The guy acts like a douche on his stream and to see him stream cheating isn't too far fetched imo. He reminds me of deezer a lot

Problem is he shares IPs with like 20 accounts. Too lazy to figure it out and spray and pray doesn't seem like a reasonable solution.
