Sucks :-( I wanted to see Greg in Cologne *sigh..*
I'm pretty sure he will be more successful in Korea on the current maps and with korean playstyle. Its really different from foreign play.

Just as I thought.
IdrA got way too cocky, and he paid for it.
If your not the best, don't act like it.
I'm not flaming IdrA, or anything along those lines, I want him to do well.
I just hope this experience makes him more... grounded, so he does well in the future.

Did anyone else notice how they changed "iG.G5" to "88)G5" halfway through?

I think that at this moment there just is no real foreign superstar who really is a rank up the others. Idra is underrated (mainly by people who get sick of ppl cheering Idra as the best foreigner), but Idra also is heavily overrated by many (especially Americans ;p ).. A lot of people out there think he's easily the best foreign player just because he's practicing in Korea, but let's be honest, he just isn't. He sure is a good player and amongst the top 10 foreign players, but far from being the very best.

WCG USA is a very tough WCG, and the fact that Idra didn't take it down is not a shocking surprise.
It has a strong technique, but it lacks oo.

I agree with Smorrie! + Show Spoiler +
imho, besides Draco, Mondragon, NonY and IefNaij NO other non-korean can make it in Korea, especially not a foreign Terran sorry.
I just hope now that his major competitor is out of the way, NonY can just go win this an be on his way to Colonge.

I like how you haven't even seen the fucking games and you're already saying he doesn't belong... where? In WCG USA? In Korea?

there isn't a possibility for a second American to go, the groups have been drawn already and it's a rule that they can't be changed afterwords.

Even though I play Terran and personally I find Andromeda a really hard map to play, a build is a build no matter how cute or cheesy it is. Deal with it. A true gosu wins no matter what ! has always been my view.
