A while back I decided to compile IdrA's match record in recent foreigner tournaments, for purposes of argument in this month-old thread (which, coincidentally, was bumped as I was writing this post). Here's an updated list of all of IdrA's recent match (BoX) results, for all you curious fans out there (tournaments are in no particular order):

Fun facts:
- With the exception of the Ansadi Starleague, IdrA has won, or is still alive in, every major non-Korean event since, and including, ESWC.
- Barring an exit in Bo1s that I missed or an unknown smurf, IdrA has won every Zotac Cup that he has participated in.
- IdrA's record across these matches is 81-24 (80%).

I wonder when he's reached the point where he just has to be excluded from foreign tournaments because he's playing in another league. IMHO, this is going to happen pretty soon..

i remember some caster saying that it's idra's turn to win everything, like how JF was a while ago

No offense to JF, but he was never dominant on this scale.
(Then again, at JF's peak (around TSL time) there were far fewer tournaments for him to play in.)

Why would you ban Idra? I don't think anyone banned draco, or madcow, or pj or lx while they were in korea?
|
its good news that idra won cos i wanna see him representing in CJ's PL in future,or perhaps some big stage just to watch idra pwning ppl

Then again, IdrA gets to practice with CJ Entus, JF practiced with who knows?

Well it would have been disappointing if he wasn't able to produce results vs this kind of not too hard competition ( sry foreigners :p )
He is a pro playing amateurs afterall.
|
Um, it's not like IdrA was randomly chosen to go to Korea. He was given a chance to, and given his circumstances, he could. Some people have to refuse to go because of personal issues, and so won't participate in those few tournaments that allowed them to go to Korea.
He deserved, you guys are all acting like he stumbled upon the CJ and they're freely bestowing him with SC prowess.

my god i just clicked on the bracket link, i think i filled out my bracket wrong..

When IdrA didn't show great results in TSL and vs. F91 in Liquibition, he was bashed for not making good on his time as a professional gamer. And now that he actually is showing great results, his critics act like this is what they expected all along.
I think IdrA's recent performance is wicked impressive, even considering all of the advantages that come from playing for CJ.

Then again?
They were not even talking about the circumstances of which why Idra is more dominant. Just that his dominance is on a higher level.

dont forget he won the north/south american ESWC qualifier, a very hard run with players like fenix/dinot/eg members.

soda FTW.
it's not only that he has good partners, it's the whole environment he is in, which kind of makes him the only one who should be winning.

Agreed. Idra should be winning all these and good for him. He would be putting in a lot more practice and effort then everyone else. Complete dominance at the moment from Idra. very impressed

I think until he plays a televised game for CJ he is still technically a foreigner, at least imo.
