IDRA has been practising with programers for how long now??

Im sorry, but it should be plain obvious Idra will win, here are some reasons for all u haters:

- Hes been practising against members of CJ, lol..
- His best matchup is TvZ.
- He already beat F91 in 2008, hes most definately improved since then.. LOL (compred to f91).
- He has practised harder, longer and against better opponents.
- Its a best of 7, luck aint gonna win anything.

GG.

thats all cool, but I still think F91 got this 5-2.
next



Yeah funny :D Do i have to remind u WCG usa?
Give the guy a break,he has zero talent.Doesnt matter how much time he spend out there.He'll never be good.

GOGOGO F91

Thats a terrible reason to like someone, hes hated for a reason.

If was idra and lost, i'd catch the quickest plane flight home.
We have multiple brackets generated in advance. Relax . (Kennigit) I just simply do not understand how it can be the time to play can be 22nd at 9:30 pm PST / midnight the 23rd at the same time. (GGzerg)

GG indeed.

Actually, I've noticed that top players, like Jaedong, Flash, Boxer, Nada, or even, in the foreign scene, Mondragon, all share the same quality: a HUUUUUGE humility.

Idra fails because with his arrogance and his cocky statements, he is putting a huge pressure on himself. And because with his manners, he is very disliked by the community, which is always hard to handle.

JESUS IDRA IS BM. Types "G" for 2 games and then JUST LEAVES THE LAST GAME. I wish Nony was still in Korea because then we could have some one to cheer for that we knew could actually WIN games, unlike Idra who just talks shit. He should leave Korea and let a worthy foreigner take his place.

Underdog complex. Maybe he feels like he can relate to him better because he also feels hated by a lot of people? I dunno... Just speculating and making shit up He could also just have an irrational desire to rebel and go against the flow

Huge humility in interviews. Most people aren't themselves in interviews.

Based on my experience, I don't think the content of interviews matters much to players when they are playing their matches. I can see how fans would perceive a greater connection because the only things they see are an interview and a result. But for most players, an interview is just a task that must be performed. Jot down how you feel at the time, or recite your pageant-like answers, and get on with your day.

IdrA could be feeling pressure but attributing it to his forum posts or interview responses is one of the last places I'd go.

On a sidenote about interviews...
I've observed that most tl.netters lap up the promotional bullshit and condemn honest negativity. I'd much rather hear a player complain about map imbalance, difficulty of schedule, or his opponent's foolish risks all paying off than hear "I will destroy everyone in 2009" or cowardly humility. The former is informative in a number of ways and the latter is just about image. I just thought that the tl.net demographic wouldn't have cared so much about image.

It seems F91 improved more in this mu then Idra ... Hmm he is doing something wrong if he beated him in 2008 in a Bo3 2 - 0 and now he lost a Bo7 pretty easily before he took 2 games from him .

Don't kwnow about this . Enyone if he feels like it could be a cocky in an interview without puting second thoughts in to it , but if he put a lot of thought in it he should of practised more and backed up his words . I mean its not like progamers aren't cocky sometimes i remember Best stating that he will beat July 3 - 0 and then it complitly backfired .

honest negativity is good to a degree, but everything idra says reaks of negativity - which is not good at all

You don't get my point: I'm not talking about image.

I'm pretty sure Jaedong has never been to a match of starcraft thinking and saying that he would explode an opponent he didn't even know. Because that's fucking stupid. And because someone who behave like that canno't be a champion. Idra did it against F91.

To be very good, you need humility. That's it. Idra doesn't have any, therefore he keeps losing in stupid situations.

First you respect your opponent, and you are a bit carefull about your own skills, than you win. Look at FBH. I think he has the potential of playing as well as Flash. This guy will never win anything. Simple.
