third game was really blah but yeah i really liked the first two. very nice vessel and mine usage, good macro, good pushes and in general decent timing. the blunder in game 2 that cost him all his tanks is just really unfortunate, he had pretty solid control of the game.
I actually liked the third game, IdrA held off for allot longer than I thought he would and he is very good with EMP vs Stasis, trap just had such a blasphemes amount of gateways and expansions he could pretty much throw his entire army away (Which he did a few times) and replace it in seconds.

been a huge fan of idra, even through all the recent bs , although i lost a little bit of faith due to recent performance, all those doubts were shattered by his gom performance, although he didnt make it, he played really well.

Amen that's what I thought too. Someone should give the man a pat on the back.

I'd really like to see the reaction of Korean Netizens to this match. Where's SuperJongMan? T_T

Man that was uncalled for. Your post is the first negative one I've seen. Theres plenty of other threads you can make that comment in, go post there.
Anyways, great job Idra. Keep it up and you'll be winning series in no time.

no I think he misinterpreted rainman to be referring to nevergg who is clearly not a man... but he was probably (?) referring to idra
anyway gj idra! I should watch the games

Ya I meant Idra as the man not NeverGG. I know she's a girl lol we've talked on IRC a bunch haha. But Great Job Idra!

man, IdrA played outstanding in the first game. Give him some more time to get all the timing and the mindset down. Go go IdrA! U S A U S A U S A

There seems to be some misconception
I initially thought when you said "man" you were referring to NeverGG, who is a female.
Now I realize that you are talking about Idra, and I too agree that he did quite a good job on GomTV.
I apologize for the misconception. =D

To those who say his play is boring is bullshit...
Game 1 on tau cross reminded me of fucking NaDa vs Jangbi in game 1 in Byz 2... seriously he played at korean level right there.. keep in mind Protoss was good and had excellent macro as well...
Good shit Greg.. he also has that progaming look in the booth .. he looked calm and not nervous at all... He can do it!
I believe

That's Eminem? lol. Nerd has gangster looks. On topic, I only saw the first game, and it was great. Idra had nice timing and countered Trap's play really well. I think Trap was surprised at losing to a foreigner so he stayed in the game longer than he might have normally, like when White_Ra was playing Nbs in that one Chinese tourney. White_Ra had the game but lost it due to bad position / micro mistakes and it became an elmination race, with Nbs building a pylon on top of a ramp and blocking it with a DT. gg

yeah, the first game was really nada-like. i felt it when i saw those fucking tanks come out of nowhere. and remember that nice tank/vult army just narrowing down the protoss? its some sick crazy shit. game 2 was okay but really, game 3 was a disappointment for me. i thought he wouldve done better on andromeda to be honest.

I loved his first game, showed power from someone that isn't big.... As was said he made a few mistakes that cost the match, none the less I liked how he played and wish him the best of luck!
