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. | ||

After poor results in foreign tournies over the last few months, he decides to go to Korea and try to compete with a much harder pro scene. Well.. good luck with that, bro. I'm sure it'll work out.. 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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

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. | ||

I don't understand what happened to make random people think they know what they are talking about. I'm still not over his early gg versus MMA after MMA destroyed his own 4th CC with his siege tanks XD | ||
