the fact is people make mistakes, and if you think you are better, you shouldn't leave until it's alot closer, but for the most part idras GG timings are fine.
edit : idras definition of Dongraegu reminds me of himself lol "really really good, but fragile and loses to opponents he shouldn't lose to"
I'm pretty sure idra realizes that he is very much like DRG, they both play the same ZvT style. The interview was really good, this I think is the lowest idra has done in any MLG this year (assuming he doesn't make a gosu run tommorow), so I hope he will start to rework his ZvT and possibly ZvP.
The problem is though, their style isn't the same. Watching DRG v MMA last year DRG GOT +2 Armor (ontop of +2 attack) for his Mutalisks and then started trading Mutas for marines in such a cost effective fashion. Idra got +2 attack only and started trading. It doesn't work that way.
None the less just when I feel as though my support for Greg is waning he manages to do the smoothest interview possible and restore my hope to 110%.
good to see that things get really sensationalized here in the fanclub and that IdrA himself is taking things easy. That's definitely the way to go here in order to keep up a healthy self esteem and not put yourself down, like you can see other players like iNcontrol or Naniawa do...
All i want today is for idra to win his first game and then beat huk and noblesse. ALL I WANT for my birthday (in 2 days). Just win the first game vs haypro/trimaster and then beat huk and noblesse. Please. After that ill be happy with whatever you do :D
trimaster vs idra, probably wont be streamed. Weird tho, i saw the poll win majority wanted to see idra game. Oh well, demuslim good too!. Hope idra takes it tho :|
sad to see idra fail so hard. anyway i always get the feeling he is playing too standard, everybody knows what to expect from him tvz .. wonder what's the reasing behind his "get-mutaball" TvZ
EPT
