idra cracks me up man. When zerg was buffed 2 patches ago he said he cant see losing a game to terran and that he wont have trouble with any protoss. 1 patch comes through where they actually nerf terran a little bit and now suddenly out of no where zerg cant win any game ever


I'm pretty sure Idra would have a problem with your paraphrases.

I was actually more fair to idra than what he originally said in making him sound like something other than a biased little kid. Someone can pull up an interview but it was the roach range patch and just before he went to MLG.

I'll accept that maybe terrans hadn't figured it out or whatever, but im inclined to believe maybe zerg has to figure things out like terran did for a month or so before the pendulum swings back.

The truth is as a "pro gamer" im guessing you kind of rely on ... oh i dont know... making money or winning to maintain a career. If everything is so broken, he should switch races and just win it all everytime because idras soooooooooooo effing good. I mean seriously, does anyone think this guy is good enough to win a GSL? On ANY race? Idras right that he was lucky to win a couple of those games or that his opponents made poor decisions... but to me that indicates that they are just flat out better players... its got nothing to do with race. .. Maps maybe... but those havent changed either.

What I realy like about Idra (actualy I'm a big fan) is that he says what he thinks. And regarding his frustration and rage, he's realy realy objective in his interviews. (even if I think, that Nestea is more than a good player)

I find this incredibly ironic.

They are both kind of biased... but its very hard to disagree with what IdrA says... Its not like hes saying "OMG ZERG CAN'T COUNTER MARINES ZERG IS UP." Zerg can't win against people who are equal skill or close to it. Nestea's run is proof of that. At this point in the game its very easy to abuse zerg. All you have to do is Stop or slow down their expansions.

Anyway. Good interview IdrArtosis (AHAH THE NEW ARCHON!) Glad to hear that IdrA will be giving some analysis. It will help a lot to understand the though processes behind pro gaming and what players specifically look for.

I said he would have a problem with your paraphrases because he has responded to similar posts in the past and not because he agreed with them. You are taking things out of context if you seriously believe your first post I responded to.

Idra seems very nice in videos.


Thanks for the video Artosis. BTW i think you should shorten you name to Art. So at the end of each videos and games you can close by saying:

"GG this was a work of Art."

dun dun dun.....

They would be the most pessimistic archon especially when talking about zerg chances.

Dark Archon?

IdrAs analysis on the state of Zerg is so spot-on.

I wish TL weren't so full of crap and we could get some meaningful posts from top pros and their opinions on balance in the game right now.

It's always in interest of mine where balance issues in any game lie, and SC is no different. Unfortunately, it is a very competitive game, so any time balance is brought up, shit starts flying left and right.

Thnx for the video Artosis, and thanks for the accurate assessment of the situation IdrA.

PS: this has been addressed before, IdrA never said he would be unbeatable after the Roach patch... he said he didn't see himself losing to terrans FOR THE NEXT MONTH. So tired of misinformation all over these boards...

IdrA is somewhat right about the state of zergs. the maps could change things next season but also it gives time for toss to make new builds. Pheonix + Colo build could be devastating

It's pathetic how hard Idra wants Nestea to lose just so he can complain more about Zerg. I was planning cheering for MVP, but now I'd really love to see Nestea taking the whole tournament
