I wonder if the fact that it's hard for IdrA to communicate with his teammates on deep levels is the reason his mechanics have become so formidable but his game sense and tactics are still just a step behind. It seems to me that doing a lot of watching/imitating would lead to very strong mechanical, if robotic, play. I could be totally off here so maybe he can comment on this.

Or is it just that you can't even begin to think about your overarching strategy/gameplan and all the branches it can take throughout the game until you're able to execute the basics flawlessly?

Overall I think he won a lot of fans today and I'm happy for him. His personality on camera seemed totally reasonable. Hopefully he and the CJ coaches are at least content with his performance.

This is a terrible way to look at things.


He plays to win. Not for any "style".


If he plays to win, then he better change up his style. Unless if hes potentially amazing, hes not gonna be able to catch up to them. Playing copy isn't gonna get him up there.

You can't assume that his opponents aren't praticing. Assuming his opponents have the same potential, it's obvious that they will both pratice and greg will still be behind.



Are you serious? By that logic, the same players should be on top now that were in 2000.

I think this is true to some degre becus if the players that the best from 2000 practiced just as much as every new player and didn't do other stuff we would probebly have the same people on the top.

But then practicing hours to result is also on a exponential scale so at the veary top practis will not improv as much as it does on the slightly lower level and then other can cath up a bit.

i disagree because as players get older they get slower
Once again back is the incredible!

I was very impressed, and actually thought he'd win the bo3.
It's his first televised game, and it wasn't that bad. Also, he's CJ, gotta cheer for him.
Looking forward to the next time.

If he doesn't break through in SC I am sure we will see him do well in SC2.

In game 1 Trap had 200 pop (first time he maxed), while idra had like 120ish... Toss failed miserably with his attack and that is the main reason idra managed to win game one (after the fight both were at 150 or so).

Decent mechanics. However, after first game it just seemed that Trap caught onto his mechanic style with semi-passive early/midgame and just took additional expansions right off the bat as he was certain IdrA wasn't going to do any sort of early push.

In the idra vs trap game 1 when the camera zoomed in on idra. Im surprised how different he looked. He looked a lot older. And than the camera zoomed in on trap. -_- trap look like hes 8 years old.
