isn't this crazy informal for a tournament to determine who's going to eStro? it feels like someone just asked PR to pick someone and he was like well why don't I have a tournament to see who to pick. good luck everyone! I hope you get to stay in Korea for a while whoever wins, it would suck if this ended up being like a three week photo op or something.

It would be cool, but it would be frustrating that they got everyone's hopes up for a new foreign progamer.
|
when they told us about it originally, a few months ago, they said it was a contract with a pro team.
but according to rek its just a short evaluation run, and if they think you suck they kick you out fast.

The winner doesn't necessarily head to eStro I'm pretty sure. Something about them watching the replays and choosing who they want?

Oh yea, I guess they evaluate the top 5 people to decide. But I guess I'm wondering who "they" are? Like does that mean PR decides, or will the eStro coaches be involved? Anyway, I'm really excited for this. Does it finish tonight?

no screen shots.
yes, there will be replays.
all games must be saved, or else it won't count.
the replays are what estro is using to judge the skill of the gamers, so it's important to save them all.

Xiaozi > Crayon 2-0
Also, Whoever loses vs. Iefnaij will play Nony for 5th place.
5th place gets no money, but he is still in consideration for the trip to Korea.

every player just bumbles around doing random things and sometimes they happen to attack when artosis' units are out of position which is 100% luck because nobody does that on purpose
except artosis, who is brilliant

skew 2-0 xiaozi
skew vs dino lb finals
winner vs me in grand finals, which will be bo5 me starting 1-0

Nicely done Idra. I've come a little late to wish everyone GL, but I hope it's been enjoyable so far.

hey let artosis in peace, they (skew & him) know eachother really well, they does that everytime they play so please ..
gogo greg & skew, you MUST WIN, you deserve this!!

Skew > Dino 2-0
Skew vs. Idra in the finals, Idra has a 1-0 lead cuz he came from the WB, it's bo5.
|
Idra > Skew in the finals, Idra went into the match with a 1-0 lead, and won 2 straight games to earn him 1st place.
He wins the $500, and is put into the pool of 5 gamers to be looked at be eSTRO, the person chosen will be flown to Korea, and play with the team, if they have enough talent or look like they are learning easily enough, they have a shot at having a long term contract.
1st: Idra $500
2nd: Skew $300
3rd: Dino $150
4th: Xiaozi $50
5th: Iefnaij vs. Nony needs to be played
http://www.binarybeast.com/?ID=xBW071014A
Replays will be released once I collect them all.

so wait top 4 are in the pool or only idra ?

Is there any way Idra is not going to be chosen? I didn't watch the games but it seems like he easily had the best showing.

holy fuck gg.net is retarded. There is a thread right now asserting IdrA had Assem play for him with 0 proof whatsoever.
I was talking to greg the entire time no worries.. this is a garbage conspiracy theory. I just point it out because people should hear every once in awhile how bad it is over at gg.net so that they can know to avoid it.

Wow, congrats Idra. Can I ask what's your status on school, etc? Would you goto Korea, say for the summer (or more) after this school year?
Seriously, good job man.
|
how come all the players in the upper bracket and lower bracket all the same in loser's bracket
|
thanks all
as for school, it all depends on what the exact nature of the estro deal would be.
originally i thought it was a real contract, decent amount of time with the team guaranteed and stuff. if it really is like that i intend to take a placement test or something to get my last english credits and graduate early, then fly out asap.
but rek said that it might just be like a publicity stunt and theyd kick me out after a few weeks if i didnt show massive improvement, if its like that i dont know if id be willing to interrupt school for it.
but at the moment it isnt even guaranteed id get the spot, so nothings certain at all yet.
|
good job idra. gl hf in korea 
|
Just because he won doesn't necessarily mean he'll be the player selected to visit Korea. They still have to review all the replays and what not.

will take at least 2 weeks, cuz i have to collect replays from 10-12 more players, then send to estro, and the coaches will have to review them, and I dunno how long that takes.
my guess would be in about 2 weeks.

This seems to be what people were saying in the testie thread too...so...
Anyone who played in this tourney actually going to go if they get invited?
Young USA players who are still in high school... I really doubt any of them will go... or be allowed to go I should say... but GJ idra, thats a nice cash prize
The mentality of video games in USA is just far too different than in korea, and honestly, you really have to be dedicated to starcraft and the only way to succeed is if you stay for at least 2 years spending hours upon hours gaming everyday.
Sure it may be a experience... but there's a fine line between a good experience, and merely a waste of time and life, that also might make you become fairly unhealthy, anti social, depressed, frustrated and generally insane. A good experience would be living in Korea for a few years, with a decent job, and the freedom to explore the great country that it is, while meeting new and interesting people and generally learning a lot from this. Instead of staying inside all day playing starcraft, which if you don't have the proper skills (see Rekrul threads), or language, can be a bad decision. Although I am unaware of the regulations that constrict the progamers from being able to explore the country, I am sure they are quite strict.
Nevertheless, an experience is an experience, and although it may be a bad experience, the gain of knowledge is inevitable.
gl if any of the invited decide to go

Playing SC competitively is a good way to spend time for some people. Just because you aren't making money doesn't make something a "waste of time". And of course it'll be hard. Let's quit saying the same shit over and over.

Maybe the player that is invited and is studying as well can arrange so that he can come to Korea during the Christmas break or something.

Why would you need to collect reps from 10-12(more) players if only the top 5 are eligible? Hmm? Makes no sense.
|
greatmeh , that is pretty stupid , average lifespan is like 75 years , taking 1-2 years to play BW professionally is hardly "wasting life" , lol. so what if (assuming Idra goes), he will graduate college at 23 instead of 21, I think the experience of living in a foreign country and absorbing their culture more than makes up for it.
its all subjective, maybe some of us are truly happy just playing BW all day, so going to Korea would be an ideal situation. you say the person will go generally insane?? That's pretty retarded considering Legionnaire, Assem, Rekrul, Draco don't seem too insane to me, all of them are living normal lives (except Rekrul who is poker guru) now that they have left Korea, and I'm sure every single one of them really enjoyed their time spent in Korea.
So basically, your argument is completely baseless.
You meet a lot of great people, the progamers are all probably nice people, and you can go out at nights and stuff and have fun from time to time. Also, why unhealthy? Proteams now have lots of physical activities so they stay in shape in real life.
basically, you have a dumbass argument.

Update: Both Xiaozi and Dino are in the next stage of this event, where the top 5 are playing vs. members of eSTRO.
Xiaozi lost to Bassen[fou] tonight, 0-2 on Python and Tau Cross
Dino lost to Sea.Really tonight, 0-2 on Python and Tau Cross
Skew, Idra, and Iefnaij all play on Saturday, which is 13:00 Korean Standard Time.
There's no casting for these matches, but all the replays from these matches and from the regular tournament will be made into a replay pack after the event is over.

The two players used yesterday weren't eSTRO's best 1:1 players, one was a 2:2 only player, and both played solid as fuck.

bassen has played in their 1v1 lineup at least a few times, hes probably their 2nd or 3rd best terran behind upmagic
but that aside, no one on a pro team is bad by any means

imo this makes their decision a bit tougher because now they have to really analyze the games to try and detect who has the most "potential" since everyone lost 0-2.

I hate you Testie. Lol too good....but IdrA I have faith in you! GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!

Be funny if they invited no-one...
Not really surprised about the results tho.
|
When do we get a decision?
|
the results aren't really THAT surprising I guess, all of estro's guys were ballers on us west, even though they haven't done anything in progaming they're still better than 99.9% of amateurs including Korean amateurs.

calm down, he just stated the facts. i assume most forum users wished the foreigners to win at least 1 game vs. the koreans but it didnt happen. nothing to be ashamed of i guess ; p

No actually he's right.
People think Testie's a good guy, but he's really just a loser, and he's showing his true colours now.
Yes we know you're the god of brood war. Go back to the checkout bag boy.

how exactly is losing to a progamer ego-bruising?
you're the nobody who sits on a forum making snide comments all day without doin shit yourself.
should get your own ego in check before worryin about everyone elses.

very informative. he can do math, and read the kespa threads! i wonder if there was some implied meaning to his post beyond the conclusions of his elementary skills

puerto give me the chance to play one of the estro members too plz

No shame losing to MinGu, he's a good player. Would destroy forgeiners all day long.
|
|
|
I was hoping I'd get a protoss/terran... I havn't TvZ'd in many, many months. When I got MinGu I cried inside. IdrA got the fucking EZ game ;p And the spot.
|

|
The right person got invited then
|
It'll be great when Idra loses to a Protoss at eSTRO HQ and tells the coach he lost cause PvT is imba and protoss is too easy of a race to play, lol.

The right person was chosen.
Thus IdrA, give the info about the contract as soon as you'll know the details, or even just the decision you've made.
|
|
|
Great for Idra. gl hf. Maybe next time it'd be Skew. If there is another time =[
|
Nobody has been selected yet, so I'm not sure what all the fuss is about, aside from 1 person saying another has been picked, and then everyone just rolling with it.
That's how rumors get started.
I can say this, Idra proved himself to be the best candidate for the spot, and if anyone is chosen, it'll most likely be him, imo.
When it's official, it will be posted on the front page, along with other information.
|
If anyone will be chosen? What do you mean? Is there a chance they are going to go back on their word?

You seem more worried about this than the players are, do like they do and wait it out calmly.

They didn't say they'd choose one for sure though. They may go with no one bine, that was already known before this started.
So regardless of what happens, a prize is still given.

nah they guaranteed theyre taking one

I know that everything wasn't made clear right away about the event when it first was announced, but the trip to Korea was always a sure thing, as well as the money.
If I confused you before, then my bad, just stating what is true and what isn't, there seems to be a lot of speculation and guessing going on, but that happens in every event I guess.
The players will get the money on the 12th of this month, I think that's the quickest payout I've seen online, aside from the $50-$100 tourneys.
|
Sorry if I seem pushy or something, I'm just EXTREMELY excited about the potential of this particular narrative.
|
|
|
Not enough pressure-terrans in this Tourney
|
good for IdrA...and you testie? are you going to korea or its just another rumor?
|
what are you talking about =o theres no new rumor about testie.

he probably means the talk about cj_testie that came out after wcg

ya probably, but just about a month late on that one =D

Sea.Really > Iefnaij 2-0
Soyeon[White] > Idra 2-0
Mingu > Skew 2-0
Bassen[fou] > Xiaozi 2-0
Sea.Really > Dino 2-0
LMFAO
that was really funny.
Sorry for the bad results, but I mean, this is just humorous 
I wish the best of luck to whoever gets chosen to go to Korea. All the community will be cheering for you ^^

Everything is still going as planned.
Players get their money in 4-5 days.
We're working on a big project for the USA scene, so it's taking longer for everything to get finished.
News about the finished portion of the tournament will be announced soon.

I wish good luck to idra even if he's just the most cocky and unpleasant player i've met. He needs it in korea.
|
idra's nature is based a little bit on self-hate and mostly on a protective mechanism which developed over the years he got reduced on his visual presence. if you started to treat him with respect you would maybe see another person in him. i like him and i think he has a quite good macro/micro relation, he could become a successul foreigner in korea.
|
If starting to treat him with respect means not winning games v him then we have a different understanding of the word "respect" because i've never been rough with him or w/e and he just insulted me every time he lost a game. But apparently (i'll let you guess why) that doesn't appen with tots or "famous" people. If he's been nice to you it doesn't mean he's a nice guy actually he's just a kid who bases his consideration towards other people only judging from their bw skill and their importance. He will get bashed in korea if he goes there and come back with his tail between the legs, a lot more people with better talent and attitude towards losing (which means faster learning) went there and couldn't do much.
|
which person do exactly mean when you say '' with better talent and attitude '' , if you look at savior he also left games without saying gg and now when he loses he tries to be out the game before his enemy can say gg, isnt it also a kind of disrespectful gesture because he cant accept the fact someone was better than him ( if only in 1 game ) ?
|
I was talking about insults, telling opponent he is newbie stupid idiot and abuses imbalance of the race. That's different dude.
|
ClouD is making a good point. There are people who insult players because they feel they "shouldnt" lose to them. News to those; you can lose to players worse than you, but that doesnt give you the right to insult them.
Replying to those insults only fuels the fire further, and result in not only him wasting time on pointless flaming, but more importanly you as well. Best choice is ignoring the player.
Unfortunatly this goes for about 20% of the current best nonkoreans if not more. As for anyone of them being successful in Korea chances are close to zero. Sadly this goes for the rest too though.
|
they talk about how tvp is imbalance, try playing pvz then lets see how bitchy u still are about tvp, i find pvz hard but i dont cry about it after every loss... every mu has its strong and weak points

I think it's patently obvious from Idra's posts that he is not merely leaving a game without saying "gg" after losing, especially if someone as polite and nice as Cloud is complaining (this is actually so uncharacteristic for Cloud it lends his word even greater credibility).

I know this for a fact, especially when I play "grudge" kind of matches or just really competitive matches, it suddenly becomes an entirely new game, much harder, everything seems to go wrong, etc, and I might find myself losing to someone I don't think I should. I used to get really pissed at this but over the last couple years I've grown up and I think become a lot more gracious towards losses.
|
Why is this thread turning into a character evaluation of Idra? Take this crap to a chat room or something. In the context of tl.net, Idra is usually totally fine, and I don't see the point of derailing every thread that ever has his name in it with useless debates about whether or not he's a sore loser.
|
He just gets angry when he loses to people he thinks he's much better than.
He's gotta learn to play it cool and roll with it.
I've never had a problem with him, but he admits he's a tit on occasion when he feels like he shouldn't be losing.
|
It's simple. He licks your ass so you will never see him act like a dumbass. That's all.
|
or perhaps its because he doesnt sit here on a forum complaining about someone's behavior by calling them a cocky idiot dumbass
not that you're a hypocrite or anything.
|
how is he being a hypocrite?
he's stating known facts
also good luck to the person picked.
|
You're going to waste a great deal of time Idra, i hope you'll at least be havin fun

agreed, if you banned him for derailing the thread fine but he shouldnt get banned for taking shots at me and the thread isnt really doing anything now anyway.
so you could unban him and ban ganfei's new name instead

I don't see why you always think its some sort of revelation to find my "new" name. It's not like I try to hide it. Incontrol sends me a little message on every single account gloating about it. It's kind of sad.
In fact, I don't even recall having brought up an argument with anyone while on this name. Either it wasn't important enough for me to remember, or I didn't.

I really don't remember Ganfei or his posts at all over all the time i've spent here. Odd stuff. But I gotta admit, I find it amazing you found him out before he hit the 100 mark when he only averages 1.6 posts per day.

I try not to make it obvious so that I don't have to deal with the fact that if I make an objective statement about something I then have to deal with a bunch of other people skewing it, or attacking me, simply because of what I may have said months and months ago.

I cant threaten you dumbass. You flamed me for no fucking reason and I ignored it cause I presumed it was some nobody. Turned out it was the same fucker who has been banned from this website 3x now and has managed to make a 4th name and try again(x3). So I PM'd you saying "oh hey you flamed me."
And you try and not make it obvious because you were banned 3 times for being a dick head not because you are some kind of victim jesus.

Everything is fine with the event, there will be a full replay pack available, minus 3 replays which weren't saved.

i have a feeling this thing is going to go the same way as rekrul's "heart and seoul" fly a foreigner to korea tournament or whatever.

I hate to be mean, but I fail to see the reason why you guys can't read the posts I make on every page that asks about when the replays and finals news will be posted, it's not hard.
If you want to know who won, it was Idra.
Now, when the news is ready to be posted, it will be posted.
It consists of multiple things.
And no, this won't end up like anything Rekrul promised the community, he talked about what he was going to do, I already did the things I said I would do, and will finish the other things I still have to do, just like I always do.

Yes peurtoRican you do I remember 8 8 player tourneys that were saposed to happened and i smurfed and won one and it never continued. I just re registered to tl.net to tell you your a fag
I give it 5 minutes before rekrul bans me again !
|
Yep, I thought up an event to do, which was 8 small events with a final event where people would get a prize.
That was something I was doing myself, paying for it with my own money, but it was side-tracked by other events I was doing for the community which had more money invested into them, and I also worked a lot at the time, so it was easier to stop the original plan.
I remember the event you competed in, not sure why you smurfed.
I don't think you'll be banned unless you did something beforet that deserved it.
Thanks for registering here again and following my events, take care buddy.

When do we get a decision? Official decision will be done within the next 2 days, when it's official, it will be made into news with all of the replays. This was 16 days ago Pretend this is a big vacation you're going on. Try not to think about it, or you will be stressing out everyday awaiting the trip/outcome. Everything is fine with the event, there will be a full replay pack available, minus 3 replays which weren't saved. I have all of the replays from the 16 man event, and most of the reps vs. Koreans. I'll keep you updated, so don't keep bumping this thread asking what's going on.
Just wondering if there are any updates? Idra was the official winner? He will/won't be going to Korea? What or who is holding up the final decision/announcement?
|
its just ghey something that was supposed to take a few weeks has been drawn out to a few months.
|
IdrA is the winner
he will be going to korea after this school year.
|
i just wish idra the best luck, he can do it if he works hard

Really? Does everyone know this but me? Why isn't this a bigger deal?

Because it hasn't been announced yet.

Its a good thing IdrA posts here. Maybe we'll get some inside info on the players, and if Up really is BM ?(ToT incident)

Was that the big SCCL incident with Strafe and Dissy?
|
oG were playing ToT in SCCL and Up played for his brother oG)Jang aka Sea.Jang, then he lied saying he was Jang when the oG admins asked him if it was really him. MidiaN checked the hotkeys and they matched Ups and not Jangs. Up was not in oGs roster so oG was punished being banned from the league since it had happened before too(Sea.Firefist was playing for someone in oGs team as well)
As a player I love Up, and he has a cool personality(the flash ceremony was awesome), but that incident make me question his morals. But its almost two years ago now, hes probably matured alot.

Oh that one... yeah well another thing to consider is that korean and non korean culture is really different. Like korean CW's ALWAYS have a bunch of name switching/smurfing.. its just something they do culturally and I dont get the sense that they consider it bm like we do. Course when that crosses over and mixes with our culture where it is often done in a malicious way and we are socialized to hold it in high disdain we get issues.
Anyways even if you dont buy that I bet you are right, 2 or so years is a long time and someone can definately mature in that time

So your saying cheating is a cultural thing?

It's been 1.5 months actually, not 3.
It seems longer because you're eagerly awaiting the result and replays.
As I had said before in an earlier thread, before Chill even bumped this, Idra was the winner, I'm waiting to release the final news with replays, because it's going to be put on a new site, which I want all the downloads to go to it, since it's new. dl's = hits.
Geoff, I love the wording you used ~_~

Just a quick discussion about Idra.
When he goes over to Korea next year, will he switch from ZvT to TvT?
|
Calgary25977 Posts
Does he not play PvT in competitive games now? I would imagine that he will switch to TvT.
|
ive been tvting since wcg usa. still suck at it since no one wants to practice tvt, but ya.
just to clear up anything thats been posted, i got the invite and accepted.
the only thing really up in the air is when i go, theyre willing to wait till june when i graduate highschool but i dont really want to wait that long. it all depends on how quick i can work out an acceptable arrangement with highschool/college now.
