In Round 1A the loser is bolded, not the winner.
But interesting results so far.
|
Idra vs. White-ra games are available on goodgame.ru with Bruce commentary (in Russian):
Game 1, Game 2, Game 3
Sadly, for me d/l speed is very slow.
EDIT: Bruce also did a funny interview with Tossgirl completely in English.Linky.
EDIT2: Sorry guys, I lied a bit.. the interview with Tossgirl is not entirely in English, but mostly (tossgirl speaks Korean and bruce translates some Qs in Russian).

Lol I can't watch because too many people are trying to watch it >_>
tossgirl <3

so Idra players loser of tossgirl/white-ra in a bo3 and the winner of that advances to the grand finals obviously, but my question is: will the winners bracket finalist have a one game advantage over the losers bracket finalist or something of that nature?

another way they could do it was to play the BoX series twice, if the loser wins the first BoX series, but i don't think thats been done in a long time.

close matches so far or it would seem.

Jeez download speed is really slow... I will try and reupload if its okay.
Nice interview.. mix of 3 languages lol. The Korean translator is damn cute too.
edit: ermy! ermy! ><
edit2: Some things that weren't translated explicitly by the interviewer. List of foreigners Tossgirl says she has heard of..
- PJ - Mondragon - Draco - White ra - Idra / Super - Android - not exhaustive of course.. just who she could think of
She praises all of them, especially Mondragon and White (Mondragon she heard is very good and she thinks White plays well. [suggests she has watched him/or his replays])^^. Like in the fomos interview, she says that she doesn't play with foreigners much anymore so she her knowledge is a bit rusty. Shes also a bit confused over which countries they are from. Also, she says that her korean (progamer) friends know many foreigners.

She says (roughly lol): "Well I don't know much about foreigner players, but Korean players have no time because of the competition. So apart from one I had when I was a student, there hasn't really been anyone else. When I retire, I'll meet someone, right? (laugh). Anyway, now I really like gaming so I have no interest and no time for these things... "
Interviewer goes on to say that in Russia all the fans love her. Collecting her photos and watching all her games etc. Tossgirl says: "I'm really happy (to hear that)!. I really didn't know that foreigners have such an interest in me so it makes me really happy to hear that [huh really?]. I think the most important thing to being a progamer, more important than fame is one's results. Recently, I've not had results so... in the future because of foreigner fans like these I will work hard and get good results.

[He was joking of course]
For those complaining about "Russian servers", it is not Russian servers that is the problem. Don't be stupid ffs. It is the GOODGAME.RU server that has limited bandwidth. I d/l frequently from igamecentral.ru and other renown Russian sites and often get 1+MB/s d/l speed.
Anyway, if there is anyone interested, I have d/led the three White-ra vs Idra games and can Rapidshit them if there is demand. The quality is a bit lacking sadly.. but I can't imagine you guys will be listening to the commentary anyway.
EDIT: Actually, I just saw that someone at repsru had already done what I was planning in the post above. Here are their links:
ESWC games, interviews and some bullshit in this one: http://files.mail.ru/68U9OV
and.. the now famous tossgirl interview here: http://files.mail.ru/TNQG8G
Just wait for the countdown to finish, then click the little floppy disk that next to the file size.
|
Yeah, goodgame.ru is Russian server .
btw. I just pointed out that all servers from Russia that I did dl from were very slow. No need to be cocky about it.
I don't know about server that you did provided now (I'm downloading right now, really good speed) is from Russia, but I didn't want to generalise, that was just my observation of experience with Russian,Korean and Chinesse servers. Sorry.
Thanks for sharing.

Cool White-Ra never disapoints i hope he wins this tournament and Tossgirl geting 2nd

Someone gave Tossgirl flowers, that's so nice~

btw. game : Ra_vs_Idra_1game_coded is asking for specific codec, can't run it under Winamp nor GomPlayer...

Thank you very much for making this topic Doso, it's nice to have all of the ESWC results and coverage in one place.
+ Show Spoiler +It now looks like Super was by far the weakest link in this tournament. IdrA really should have had him 2-0, but threw away a massive lead in the 2set. After watching Super's performance vs. IdrA, the fact that Tossgirl went 2>1 over him is just more confirmation to me that Tossgirl is a weak player. I think IdrA is the heavy favorite over Tossgirl.
White-Ra is the wildcard...I haven't watched his series vs. IdrA but I'm very curious how he won on Chupung-Ryeong. I'm impressed. I think the finals will be a rematch of White-Ra vs. IdrA, and I hope IdrA comes out on top.

Besides, goodgame.ru is usually not this slow. They seem to have gotten overloaded on the eve of ESWC.
I don't know about server that you did provided now (I'm downloading right now, really good speed) is from Russia, What? Yes, it is a Russian server.
Thanks for sharing. NP.
Also, about game one - there is a post by an admin at gg.ru explaining that the server overload is causing their ftp to malfunction and the video has become broken each time he tried to u/l it. They say they will make a new attempt soon, when the load tapers a bit.
+ Show Spoiler +Ironically, game one is the one game in the series that White-ra lost.
|
Maybe it's not truth, but from my experience it is fact. As I said, I am not generalizing things it was just an experience with those servers, nothing more, nothing less and you take it too serious friend.
I hope 1st game will be up, thanks again.

o my lord super wtf happened come on

I think super got shaken up pretty badly by tossgirl's cheesy play.
Maybe he was looking forward to some straight-up play from idra, but got 2 fac'ed in the deciding game.

he got completely destroyed in both game 1 and 2, god knows why idra decided to randomly SUCK and throw away the win. It was a straight up macro play both games. Stop looking for excuses to why idra beat certain gamer. He is just that good.
|
sigh super.. game 1 ill let that one go game 2 was not bad you play standard and show ur strength game 3 sadness ah! violent tribe leader
since tossgirl just has more determination to win i can feel it by the builds. i hope she win the whole thing!
|
Sick, I can't wait to hear Artosis cast the games. :D
|
I was pretty excited when this even was announced, but now I'm pretty much "meh" about it. I guess Tossgirl pulling the upset was good as I had Super pegged to win it all, but having only 4 players kind of sucks.
|
LOL just got around to watching that tossgirl interview.
was it just me or did she look kind of weirded out at the end? :O
|
Is it starting in 20minutes? If so, Artosis planning on doing another Mogulus cast? (game would probably be played on main stage though, which I guess could inhibit that)

the stream is so fucking laggy because of all the spammers in the chat. it needs to be turned off
|
|
are there any other streams to watch this?
|
So goddamn frustrating watching this. Why can't they just disable the chat box?
|
I checked the Russian and Chinese streams and they were both playing war3. So annoying. People in the chat need to unplug their keyboards.
|
I will assume the spammers are gg.net people, because I would hope people from TL would not act that retarded and ruin the stream like that.
|
WHAT ARE YOU PEDDLING ARTOSIS
|
white-ra 2-0, fuck all you fucking spammers go choke on an aids dick
|
too many idiots on the stream, but white-ra dominated and won 2-0.
|
i dunno even when he disabled the chat it was still laggy
hope it clears up
|
it seemed to me like him disabling chat didn't do much for the lag though, has anyone else had 250+ viewers on mogulus without this lag before?
|
God that made me so mad!! didnt watch a thing of both games due the retards spamming like freaks....
|
will the idra vs idra game be tonight?
|
Im pretty sure it was the sheer amount of people watching moreso than the chat.

If on schedule it should be

which is in 27 minutes.

does anyone actually have experience in that the chat lags the stream.... because it makes no techical sense whatsoever unless the mogulus programmers are complete idiots
|
Ok, thanks a lot anTi_ I will stay up then and give it one more chance.
|
The chat doesn't lag the stream, but it can lag the streamer's CPU I guess?
Seems more like a bandwidth issue here though.

Maybe mogulus can't handle all of us Maybe there are limitations of bandwidth for each user/channel. Is there a premium service?
If the next game will go the same way, i will rather wait for the games to be uploaded on youtube.
|
I doubt it was the chat, he actually turned off the chat at the end and it was still lagging the same.
|
he needed to restart procaster as well , i forgots to mention this
|
|
the video is still slightly behind the audio, but it's only about a half-second or so
edit: more like 1.5-2 seconds

I'm a half hour late, so I must have missed a game...Artosis is in the waiting room.
Ah, now I hear that IdrA is prepping his computer, so I assume that means we're about to watch the loser's bracket game...ahh, it's going to be vs. Tossgirl? Can someone update me on the set score between White-Ra and Tossgirl?

Ret had over 300 people on his stream (We were running at about 260 with massive spam) without any problems whatsoever.
So I assume if Ret with 300 is not laggy then 260 shouldn't be laggy either...

It looks like disabling the chat worked.

Maybe Artosis could go back and cast the ra/tossgirl the replay of the tossgirl/ra game that was lagging so bad, and then just cast the replays of idra/tossgirl?

Artosis is explaining that someone told him the fact that there are too many users on his Mogulus stream is what is causing the game to lag - isn't this total bullshit? The load for serving the stream to users is Mogulus's responsibility, not Artosis's computer's responsibility, right? I mean, Artosis merely provides the video feed to Mogulus for distribution to viewers of the stream - he's not actually directly connected to each user on the Mogulus stream.
And furthermore, Artosis is on some sort of monstrous computer. If ret or Chill can stream to 300+ viewers without a problem, I don't see why he wouldn't be able to.

Why would you call lag at the exact moment you're getting utterly ass-raped, instead of say, at the beginning of the game?

Either Procaster lagged Artosis's comp (unlikely) or it wasn't stream-related at all.

actually, i thnk it might cause the lag, since these comps are cabled and the moguls might take all of artosis' bitrate on uploading, hence making him lag with lan-sc.. not so much the pcu part but lan issue.. but i'm not sure, just guessing..

It was rather curious really. We had roughly the same amount of people for White-Ra/Tossgirl and the GAME didn't lag the stream just did.
Very confusing frankly that and Artosis is on a super comp apparently.
|
Yea, thats what I thought too, regardless of users, he still uploads the same. Did it look like the game was lagging Artosis? Sort of hard to tell from the limited quality stream, but looked pretty smooth *shrug*. But yea, could do it liquibition style and cast reps.
|
so what did idra take that 1st game??
|
if there was a lag it prevented Idra from killing 20 scvs with his first vulture

I agree that the fact that Artosis is streaming might be the cause for the lag (though it's unlikely, given how powerful his computer is) but what I'm calling bullshit on is the following explanation: "Artosis is causing lag because there are too many people connected to his Mogulus stream".
This explanation is BS because streaming costs Artosis's computer the same amount of processing power and bandwidth regardless of how many users are connected.
|
The thing is Artosis only uploads once to mogulus, and mogulus does the work to upload to the rest of users.
If anything is lagging pretty safe bet it's not artosis stream so i call bullshit. =/
Good they let him back for second game.

Yeah, this is exactly what I'm saying.

the amount of viewers shouldnt have an effect on the game quality but im guessing multiple streams with all the comps using a single connection might have an effect on the lag (im guessing the other obs are also streaming which can kill his upload rate)

IdrA is using 2-fact tank goliath, the same build he used to destroy Super on Destination in their series.
Unfortunately, Tossgirl is countering perfectly - I wonder if she watched the IdrA-Super series? If so, you have to question IdrA's choice to use this build again.

Yesterday Idra didn't bring SCVs either on Destination :\

I just can't say it enough: Artosis, your casting is absurdly enjoyable. I have never enjoyed TvT this much, and have no doubt it's because of your cast.
Seriously thanks for this first-rate coverage (maybe I should just send a PM ).

More lag... Artosis has to leave the game again T_T
I wonder what could possibly be causing this?? It looks like Artosis is the only obs, aside from the referee.

T_T this makes me cry...cause now he wont even have the replays will he?

NOOOO artosis has to leave again =(

-_-;;; artosis shulda jus pretended afk like those noobs who lag the obs games and never leave when asked to..

I guess the stream was really helping the lag if not causing it. =/
Leaving the game It's absolutely the right thing to do, i hope they fix the issue, they must be using some really shitty switches/routers if they can't handle this.

white-ra won the winners brackets to make it to the finals
tossgirl vs idra in the loser brackets goes into finals vs white-ra one game under (1-0 for white-ra)

I seriously hope there is no "lag" for the finals...if Artosis has to leave the finals game then I will be pissed off.
|
the finals are a single bo3?
if so being up 1-0 is a pretty significant advantage

Too bad theres no way to really watch it. I'll have to check out the vods.

This is probably just coincidence. Can you think of any way the number of connected users could possibly affect Artosis's computer?
|
It probably has something to do with the switches/routers not able to handle the troughput from all the network traffic, not only artosis machine/stream.
Anyways, just a heads-up the previous games are available to watch on mogulus on-demand, I'm watching ra vs tossgirl since the live stream was shitty due to extreme chat gayness.

2-0, and both games were pretty one-sided murders
Edit: my bad, actually StalinRush is right. We haven't heard confirmation that IdrA won game 2. However, Artosis sounded 100% sure he would win.

On May 04 2009 14:51 cunninglinguists wrote: so was the result 2-1 for idra or 2-0?
the last we heard it was 1/0 for idra with idra having a big advantage and was most likely gonna take it 2/0 but we havent gotten word for sure

regardless why not try anyways? If it doesnt work i will eat my words completly
thinking about it more he could also reduce his upload rate with lower bitrates and less quality, also only showing the starcraft windowed mode screen instead of both starcraft and the banner on the right this should even out the quality and decrease his upload rate.. essentially reducing lag D:
Many edits

Well you're right that there's no harm at all in trying. Power to you, and honestly I hope it does work somehow.

Is Artosis at least trying to stream last game or he's been shutdown by the org ?
Well, any sucess with the other streams ?
I'm only getting WC3 games and the korean/chinese don't work for some weird reason.

i heard something about using OGN, but i dont know how, anyone help?

There you go.
SPOILERS STOP READING
Tossgirl cheeses super then loose to Ra in some cool games and then gets raped by idra (not sure about the second game, just sounded like that).
Idra looses to Ra (Didn't watch these games 2-1) then beats Super in some cool games, second game was a comeback but mostly because idra made some mistakes, third game idra takes with a nice 2fac build after blocking the scout with a rine so Super is out after loosing two matches.
So finals = Ra vs Idra.

so no Artosis commentary?

Not live yet but those 2 are probably gonna stream it, Russian and Chineese.

Correct!
The Russian stream is black right now (but it looked like it was setting up for broadcast a minute ago) and Artosis's is still completely down. I'm thinking the match hasn't started quite yet.

k looks like idra wins game 1 with some type of 1fac cc timing rush
|
United States12607 Posts
Oh my god, carnage at White-Ra's nat
I have no idea what happened here, but it looks like he was caught completely off-guard by this rush from IdrA
Looks like IdrA will take set 1, that is SO huge especially considering it was Medusa.
|
Nicely done by Greg. Since when is he using different strategies..?
|
Idra 2 facts vs White - Ra 10/15 gate and now Robo going up .
|
Idra is in White-Ra's main with like 2 tanks and 3 vults. I think he wins the game on Medusa.
|
seems they didn't allow spectators to join the games because of lags during idra-tossgirl match...

Exceptional micro by idra, pretty much a near perfect game from him. I was really impressed there.

I am using the UUSee program and although its a bit behind it run perfectly.

U S A. U S A~!

I can live report if that is needed. Just let me know

Chinese stream looks way better then Russian IMO, gonna stick to that.
Nice move by Idra.
|
|
Idra like a really tight poker player and 2 fact is his bluff. He never does it so when he finally does its a ez win for him lol

this is pretty ghetto.. why wouldnt the organisers make sure everything was fine beforehand when they know this is going to be a broadcasted event?

theres the chinese stream too but its so laggy

Game 2 is on Destination. White-Ra is on the Top Left and Idra is bottom right.

AHHH! Even worse! WC3!
Opening these links is like playing stream Russian Roulette
|
chinese stream works well for me
little bit laggy but tolerable
|
White-Ra is not going to proxy or try to take Idra's gas because he makes pylon in his main and doesn;t scout after it.
|
Idra scouts White-Ra going robo before goon range, Idra gets his fac up
|
Chinese stream was working fine and now it's laggy as hell, GTFO my stream ppl!
+P
|
White-Ra makes gateway in main and Idra is sending out an early scv scouting for proxy's. After finding none he sends it back to his main where he is taking his gas.
|
Been using pplive since the first match, flawless thus far
|
sign you never really think about how much you watch and how important the mini map is until you cant see it. MOVE YOUR HEAD!!
|
Both are now scouting each other. I do think Idra will be able to block ramp with marines and deny scouting. Idra gets in and does not see the core building but sees an early robo.
|
The scv makes it out alive but I don't think it will make it back to Idra's base alive. Idra has 1 fact and is now making his CC in his main. It looks like he will upgrade siege. White-Ra making a pylon in middle left and idra scouts it immediately.
|
United States12607 Posts
Edit: ah shit, my stream (the Russian one) is ahead? Yaqoob I'll let you LR so I stop confusing/spoiling people
|
Damn, Ra does some raping on Idra's nat but has to move back.
Edit: I'll let Yaq update, he does better.
|
White-Ra getting an observatory bay. I am not sure if he has reaver tech. Idra CC is 75% done and he is getting an academy and upgrading what looks to be siege. Reaver Tech is now building for white-Ra and he actually makes obs before the reaver. He has 3 goons and 1 zealot atm. Idra, deciding not to float the CC yet and is just making turrets and sieging tanks. He makes a turret in his natural and floats the CC and ebay. White-Ra sending his units down the map.

holy crap IdrA is playing super aggressive all of a sudden....this is a side of him I haven't seen before
fucking nice micro holy shit
|
That was some cool micro. :D
|
Nice aggression and micro by idra in middle.
|
Idra has some pretty good turret placement in his natural and White_Ra is pushing in with 1 reaver and 5 goons. Idra only has 2 tanks in his nat and the rest is in his nat. White_Ra takes out both tanks and losses the reaver. Idra brings his 2 tanks and White-Ra takes them both out but after losing all his goons. White-Ra has his natural expo up and is taking his 3rd @ Top Left. Idra with 2 facts and adding a 3rd.
|
Greg will take the lead on Desti!
|
idra is really showing superior micro in these skirmishes. idra has a small contain setup now outside whiteras nat.
|
White-Ra is getting another Reaver and is adding a citadel. He is now adding 2-3 more gateways and has transfered probes to his 3rd and is adding a cannon there. Idra is moving out with 5 vults and 2-3 tanks and engages white-ras army in the middle. Idra gets off some good mines and is able to kill the reaver with 3 tanks left.

Idra now has a turret and a few mines set up outside the natural of White-Ra. has has 4 facts (1 with machine shop) and is adding his 5th. He is firing on the nexus of the 3rd with vults from where the cannon cannot reach.

Not sure IdrA is still ahead, economy-wise he's not, and there is some dts in play. What you guys think ?
Ra tried to push but turned back again after loosing some units.
|
United States12607 Posts
IdrA's mines are lethal this game, hot damn
|
White-Ra brigns a goon on high ground and stops Idra from firing on the nexus with vults. Idra building a turret near white-Ra's third and is adding his 6th fact. White-Ra brining some units from behind. Idra attacks the 3rd with 1 tank and 6 vults and losses the tank but the remaining vultures take out the cannon and kill all the probes and my stream freezes -_-;;

I'm not sure what stream you are on, but on the one I'm on (Russian stream)
+ Show Spoiler +IdrA has 2 bases vs. White-Ra's 2.5, and has a massively bigger army and a contain outside W-Ra's natural. He's almost just a-moving for the win now. So yeah, he has a huge advantage.
|
white ra should've waited for the reinforcing dragoons :|
|
White-Ra trying to take another expo behind his main but its scouted by vults and the vults kill the warping cannons before being killed. Idra has killed the 3rd of white-ra and is now moving out with a small army from his natural. White-Ra attacks and losses all his zealots and is forced back.

Wow that was Pro level play by IdrA! Greg way to go ! Just one more game. Not that I dislike White-rA, he's great and I like him but its time for greg to win something!

Idra was pretending to be above average foreigner until grand finals.

Ra GGs. Idra 2-1.
It's Bo5.

sloppy play by white.ra idra has a nice timing

I'm guessing white-ra doesn't want to get married.

Idra floating his 3rd and transfering scvs. Idra attacking into the third of White-Ra and White-Ra has alot of zeals but Idra shows amazing micro and takes them all out. I don't see Idra losing this game. Idra seiges the 3rd (behind the main) and its about to go down and still has a small contain of 2 tanks and 3 vults + 4 turrets outside the natural of White-Ra.

Where are you watching this?

Damn that was some hot shit.
Very aggressive style and good micro.

Wow, that was very impressive play by Idra

Idra moving with a large army into the natural of White-ra and white-Ra has an arbiter but its not going to help and white-ra losses all his nexus and White-Ra gets off a statis on 4 tanks on the bridge but gg's anyways.
Idra 2-1 White-Ra

Game 3 @ Neo Harmony. White-Ra is bottom right in orange and Idra is top right. Idra scouts after his rax and is going to scout White-Ra last. White-Ra scouts after core and is harassing the scv building the factory because idra delayed his marine production for a faster fact.

Idra chasing the probe in his main with 2 marines and it gets out alove. Idra finally reaches the main of white-Ra but their is a goon on the ramp. White-Ra teching dt drop nand has a robo and citadel building in his main.

Good moment for Idra to have a pause. Mind games....
|
Was that 4 p's? Good thinng KeSPA isn't there!
I assume his booth door popped open and was letting distractions in or something.

i can't believe white-ra didn't block ramp with his second goon.. wtf. pulled a bisu

IdrA is totally prepared with scan and turrets, fends of the DTs easily. His expo is up and he is now in a commanding position in this game.
IdrA is totally in his element here...all of his games today have been really impressive.
|
The game is restarted and it seems that White-Ra is continueing with his tech decision. Idra is gstill going 1 fact cc and is getting an ebay and an academy and I guess he will line his main with turrets.

Idra was prepared for DTs. Looks bad for the groom.

White-Ra with the shuttle out and 1 dt seems to be following the shittle seince it ddige get in it. White-Ra unloads a dt into the main of Idra and its going towards the main cc and it is killed immediately. Idra with a nice ebay + rax wall and white-Ra attacks but idra defends. White-Ra loading more dts into a shuttle.

White-Ra now rushing arbiter....here comes the timing from IdrA. White-Ra is going to be really hard-pressed to stop this.
|
Idra moving out right as the Arbiter Tribunal finishes, sick
Isn't htis pretty early for arbiters, too?
|
White-Ra unloads a dt and Idra scans immediatly and kills the dt and now the shuittle is flying in the main and trying to waste scans. White-Ra has his natural command center up.
|
Yeah, Idra should make sure he just 'ppp's. That was his pause reflex and it would lose him under Kespa.
|
Tricky stuff hope it pays off so we can see an epic final match.
Edit: I mena the early arb.
|
idra 2-base 6fac pushing after white-ra's failed DTs... now up against an arbiter coming out in like a minute or more... white-ra in trouble
|
White ra with 4 facts (2 with shop) and is adding 2 more and White-Ra is teching arbiters and has the arbiter tribunal building.

By teching to arbiter it looks like Ra didn't have enough units to hold off Idra's push.
Edit: IDRA WINS

White-Ra is adding gateways now and is still only on 2 base. Idra is moving out with about 5 tanks some marines/scvs and reinforcing with vults. White-Ra tries to delay with dts but idra scans immediately and kills it. White-Ra is attacking with a bunch of goons speed zeals and gets the zeals to the tanks and they both trade armies and idra losses all his tanks.

gg gj aw im sad for white ra. he's not getting married
|
Vults get into Ra's main and he GGs. Idra wins 3-1!
|
Yeah and Idra's placing some nice turrets, really hard for Ra to get back in this game.
Edit: Oh well. =p
|
Idra still with a decent army and is seiging outside the natural of White-Ra with turrets and mines. It looks like the nexus will go down.
|
|
O_O Idra surely updated his progamer drivers before this match. Or more like, switch them out for new ones.
|
Ah Idra 3-0s White Ra, who would have predicted.
|
wow, I feel the pain in the Ukraine, think this is it

White-Ra GGs
holy shit, what a brutal dismantling
well done IdrA, well done. Silence the haters (but maybe you learned from them, adding some variety with those aggressive builds).
|
GG~ 3/1 Idra
sadly white-ra didnt stand a chance on that map :/ way to T favored
bad map pool imo
|
White-Ra out with his first arbiter it seems and Idra has lots of turrets by his push about 3-4 and is placing turrets everywhere. Idra gets 5 vults into the main of white-ra and takes out a lot of probes.
|
White-Ra gg's and Idra wins
3-1.

Clearly it was the map pool and not Idra playing masterfully.
He did win game 1 on old medusa and game 2 with builds we are NOT used to seeing from him at all, namely aggressive style 2 fact type rushes.
I dunno where this Idra came from but he played extremely well today.

not to mention that the series opened with Medusa and Destination...are you sure you want to talk about TvP map balance???

haha no no no im just saying that he had to try something cause he would of had to win on destination or medusa (really suprising white-ra didnt win on medusa) because harmony is just a crazy map to defend aggainst tanks on.
Nothing against idra either i would of just like to of seen some more balanced maps to see more crazy intense games

Shit.
Now we can't say IdrA doesn't win events anymore. Jk jk.
Good job man, you've earned this one.

Yes, the race it "is favored for" is Protoss (vs. Terran).

He didnt stand a chance on Medusa. Or Destination. Yap.. Terran favored.

good job idra and nice to see you being mannered throughout entire tourney and interviews! KEEP THIS UP
|
He didn't 2 fact on Sword in the Moon. He did the exact same thing as the first game on that map. But I don't know if White Ra also DT rushed then. He did try 2 base arbiter so I guess he did.
Destination is also protoss favoured. Allows for many kinds of allins and cheeses. Proxy gates don't set you behind and you can always gas steal if you want.
On Sword in the Moon he should just maybe have 12 nexused. But he lost by going for cheese and not blocking his ramp. Eventhough that map is really good for T despite it's size.

I think he's talking about Harmony.

idra will destory all in 2009 -_-
|
Oh yeah it's Sword in the Moon or something. Not Autumn Wind.
I just forget the name of that map because some TL mod decided to call it randomly Neo Harmony despite poll result and general consensus.

yeah when i said maps i ment how Harmony favors T (or so i thought/think (you guys are making me doubt myself)) and medusa favors P (cant believe idra actually won as well as he did) and destination i find a pretty balanced map
i just thought that since he lost on medusa he had to win destination cause it seemed fairly impossible to win on harmony
i was in no way implying that idra didnt deserve his win in any way
|
As Idra didn´t play "standard", so now he is the skilless noob??? *Irony off*
Good Job by Idra, he deserves it, even when the mappool favoured Terran a little.

LOL I can't believe you guys, IdrA won on Medusa (P>>T), Destination (P>=T), and then a game on Neo Harmony which was decided primarily by White-Ra's failure to prevent scouting, not map features.

Idra got more advantage from the close positions than from the map itself. And that just allowed him to kill White Ra earlier while ahead after the risky play that suffered the mistake of not blocking the scout.
|
what Idra win 5k? That has to put him into the top 6 or 7 for the all time none korean money list i think lol.
|
*Plays Eye of the Tiger*
Enjoy the 5k Idra, and buy Artosis some dinner, he's been slammed by spammers and kicked from games all day, yet still posted some nice interviews in the process. :p
Tiger uppercut~! Congrats

good job! w8ing for vods €: and tranlations of the interviews, maybe some gosu kor could translate some comments too

quick translation until someone better does it
Idras
-Feelings after winning since its my first win im really happy
-you entered through the loser bracket it was hard because i had to play a lot of games but it was played on the maps i always play on so it wasnt a big problem
-do you feel you improved after coming to korea living in the team dorm i got to practice a lot and its because of that, that i won
-you got your revenge on whitera I think whitera was the second strongest in this tournament. Im happy that i got my revenge to someone i lost before
-When do you think you will achieve what you want Im not sure because the competition is tough. I will try my hardest.
-Your goal winning a game in proleague and good results in the individual leagues. For now it is to qualify for the individual leagues
Whitera's
-feelings on 2nd place A game is a game. Im not too disappointed in getting 2nd place.
-After beating tossgirl did you have any hopes on getting 1st place When i won, i wanted to win the whole tournament but since i lost, i feel its something i couldnt control
-heard you're sortof old (i dont know how to say this without it sounding sortof offensive -_-; Since i work, its hard to show good results, but when I practice, i work hard hard to give off good results
-curious if you watch broadcast pro sc games i watch a lot of games and try to copy, but i prefer making my own strats through practice
-do you plan on showing up to future events of course. I will definently show up at wcg. I will try to qualify for all future offline/online events.
Plz correct mistakes i made theres probably a lot its my first time translating;;.
netizen time
Whitera netizen: Hes older than boxer keke The rests are really all about how they feel jealous how he gets to do what he wants, and how for a hobby he gets like 2nd at a tournament.
Idras Netizen: Congrats
Netizen: why does he look so old
Netizen: Hope he becomes the next elky/grr
Netizen: The bonjwa of bad manner. After losing instead of saying gg he would say U are fucking noob. You win by doing stupidest shit ever. Fuck you. ( Note he wrote that part in english)
Netizen: both the guy cursing idra and idra are the same
Netizen: (saying to the guy who keeps on cursing idra)just stfu and dont pretend like you're good at english.
Netizen: Isnt he the one who said free's dragoon micro sucks
Netizen: After he lost on iccup he cursed at me
one of the guy is taking some of idra's interviews and keeps on twisting them around -_-;;
Plz correct mistakes i made theres probably a ton because its my first time translating and i did it pretty quick

oh my god.
netizens really don't like idra. seems like they started talking about his comments about Free too...
edit: oh ilikestarcraft, i didn't see your netizen translations. i was just basing things off of my pretty terrible korean. he didn't really say his dragoon micro sucks, he just said free attacks at really bad times if i remember right.
|
IdrA said "he [refering to Super] is like a mini version of me, he has good macro and then messes up the rest"
And for some reason the netizins are interpreting that as: "Hero is like a minor version of me. He has got a good macro and then he messes up the rest. You know..." O_o
So at least some of the shit they're talking about IdrA is miscommunication.
EDIT: Oh, some of the stuff got translated. Thanks ilikestarcraft.

Wow, awesome Idra!
He really learned something in CJ.
|
According to a netizin: "After he lost on iccup he cursed at me"
Artosis describes IdrA's smurf account as "a bunch of numbers." Has anyone here been cursed by this account? http://www.iccup.com/starcraft/gamingprofile/870706.html
EDIT: Nevermind, that account doesn't play terran.

Hopefully, Bruce decides to release the ones he has as well. He was observer during the games after all..
Feels unlikely that ESWC releases them.. though now that they are bankrupt, who knows?
Funny regarding those replays - Ra is pretty slow (200 apm). Watching his FPvods I thought he was faster..

No word yet, but I have a hunch that Artosis will cast and upload the finals - both since he was ecstatic about the result, and because he seemed disappointed that he was unable to live broadcast them over Mogulus.
|
anyone 1 know the background music during tossgirl interview?
|
hmm people who watched the games.. how you rate the players' games out of 10? Idra, WhiteRa. Tossgirl and Super? It'd be interesting to know TL's take on the players' skills.

IdrA,
I congratulate you sincerely. After all the shit you've done and put up with, you've finally made me write something about you. I'm very proud of you being a representative of North America and foreigners. I hope you read this and I hope it means something to you. Once again, congratulations.

Is there a prizecut in korean pro teams or can players keep 100% of their winnings ?

It would be pretty dumb if the pro teams took a cut of the winnings. I am sure they don't. That would be so demotivational.

Would be stupid not to take everything.
