Good point actually.

Idra´s been average in the foreign scene for a while ofcourse he isnt going todo well in korea vs better opponents.


I'm no fan of idra but saying idra is "average" in the foreign scene is just stupid and blind hate, he has been a top contender for some months now.

Well he was gifted an S slot and has professional obligations. I think will ride it out until he's demoted to B which should be soon as he definitly doesnt have the heart of a champion to say the least.

MaNa vs Zenio just 5 minutes ago. Zenio crushed MaNa with fake Hydra pressure into mutas. And to anyone who calls that "coinflippy", fake pressure into tech switch is a standard tactic by all the other races.

I didn't see the Mana game, but it sounds like the same thing that beat Naniwa on Taldarim at Kiev.

Yes, pretty much the same thing Zenio's been doing to foreign Protosses recently. I'm surprised it's still working.

My thoughts exactly. It's been a long time since I last saw a Protoss owning a zerg.

IdrA has to be one of the most disappointing pros to actually like, and look forward to (atleast most of the time), except for Clide.

Almost every game I watch from him, hes GGing way too damn early, getting owned, playing illogically safe, idk man I find it really hard to support IdrA when he gives his fans nothing to go on. A lot of his statements lack confidence, and instead of saying what he needs to do, and work on, he talks about what Blizzard needs to do and work on.

His mindset is flawed, he WANTS to be the best, yet he doesn't seem to TRY to be the best. Spend less time worrying about stuff you cannot change, and more on what you can change. IdrA makes NA look bad - hardly any other pro has his outlook on the game, Koreans never leave the damn game, and sometimes end up winning. Uhg, he gets me annoyed sometimes, NA needs more good players and IdrA is slipping again.

HuK... hes another story, but not one of the same. I'm looking forward to his games.

Idra just needs to win something big vs good players then I think his momentum will carry him very far.

People need to keep in their minds Idra's history of complaining about protoss in Brood War when protoss clearly wasn't overpowered at all.

i don't see the point in insulting progamers. he plays for a fucking living, of course he tries hard. you don't move to korea if you want to be lazy.

if he wins everyones gonna be like "OMG ITS THE NEW GRACK new mindset blah blah" and if he loses, people like you will come out again.

fan or not, insulting someone so blatantly is beyond disrespectful.

OK I'M fed up with the shit that IdrA gets from people. He is probably training the hardest out of every foreigner in the world atm, and he is saying that toss is hard to beat, something that pretty much EVERY SINGLE ZERG you ask will say too. That doesn't mean he is whining, that doesn't mean hes Bad, it just means that he doesn't think he will win because he doesn't understand ZvP. You might say "look at Stephano and CoCa, they have no problem with toss!". They are outliers. Are you Actually going to call IdrA a bitch because he has the same opinion as the vast majority but is Only more vocal?


I like the part where you display actual evidence to support your claims instead of just pulling shit out of your ass. /sarcasm End.

In the last 3 months of PvZ
(Z)DongRaeGu is 11-5
(Z)Monster is 10-7
(Z)LosirA is 8-8
(Z)Curious is 9-4
(Z)July is 8-7
(Z)Lucky is 6-2
(Z)Life is 9-7
(Z)Leenock is 12-6
(Z)Cezanne is 19-16
(Z)BBoongBBoong is 4-4
(Z)Line is 6-6
(Z)Terious is 5-4
(Z)HyuN is 4-1 (The guy has been playing SC2 for only 3 months)

I didn't include NesTea because he had only played 3 ZvP's in the last 3 months

(Good) Zergs don't have any problem with Protoss. Deal with it.



But that actually doesn't mean very much. That's an extremely small sample, ZvP has changed a lot in 3 months, and a lot of these players were just better than their opponents. Maps have also changed quite a bit iirc. A lot of those records also aren't very good, considering. I only looked at a few, but Leenock and a few others had the worst win-rate in ZvP in the last 3 months, so it's at least their weakest match-up.

Not necessarily agreeing with you, just stating that your evidence means very little. I mean when you've played 10-15 games total changing the outcome of one or two games makes a huge difference in your record. There's really no way to prove it one way or the other with the tiny amount of data we have.


Please don't bring up that "sample size" bullshit. It's just a lame excuse for people who've never worked with statistical information throw out there. Yes ZvP has changed in that Zerg have started to win more than Protosses. Also a lot of these players went up against and won vs MC and Sage two guys known for their PvZ. Other win against opponents such as JYP and Oz, JYP a PvZ megamind and Oz a top 3 P. I just stated that Leenock have a 12-6(66,6%) win/loss record. I don't know what numbers you looked but that's clearly wrong or your just lying.

To be fair I absolutely hate, and have always hated ZvP. I hated it as a Protoss too. It is so timing based, and requires so completely different reactions according to what the opponent is doing... it just feels stupid even when you win, and I can see why someone with idra's hatred of everything random would hate it.

Modern ZvP isn't random or coinflippy. I can not think of one popular strat besides obvious cheese that requires a significant amount of luck for either side to win.

Wait, wait, wait. You're actually denouncing someone for being 'disrespectful' to Idra? Bahahahahahaha. Oh man, thanks for that.

It's idiotic of anyone to assume that when Idra leaves the game it's too early (unless you're a pro obviously). He's better than all of us and knows much more. I don't understand what happened to make random people think they know what they are talking about.
