I've looked at the TLPD before and it is usually pretty slow in my experience, but it will be their eventually. And IdrA has always said he was confident in his Vs terran so I'm pretty hopeful about his matches versus Major. I do have the feeling Major is going to cheese him though... but I always get that vibe with terran when they play IdrA.

They aren't going to be standard games. IdrA plays with major sometimes so they have a lot of experience playing each other

Disagree. If any Terran is likely to play IdrA in a straight up game and try and go toe-to-toe with IdrA's mechanics it is Major.
I'm still confident IdrA will win and it's likely to be an entertaining series.

Agreed, if you ever watch MajOr's stream he strikes me as more of a macro terran, whenever theres an engagement going on he'll only spend a couple of seconds looking at it unless is really important, otherwise he's macroing incredibly well at home. I've seen him keep his minerals under 200~ in the late game and it's quite impressive.

mmm its not cause Major is a cheesy terran but in general, when two people have a lot of practice together, they tend to play differently as the other is so familiar with their strategies and timings
Major and IdrA don't play together all that often, so I'm sure it will be fine. Also, Juan was practicing hard with TSL, so this will be an awesome game I think.
When does the broadcast start (time zone?) and where? I can't find anything on the MLG site or in the TL events.

In The MLG Global Invitational thread it has the broadcast schedule: "All broadcasts begin at 7pm ET", so that should be about in two hours. I can almost guarantee it will appear on the TL sidebar when it actually begins as well, so I wouldn't worry about that.

Well you are pretty wrong. Him and major played a lot before major went to korea ^^.

Yup, me too. IdrA looked strong the whole tournament despite beeing sleep deprived etc. He lost that series to theSTC on a whim. If you watched the last game you could see how close he came to defeating that push.
Yeh this is true, he nearly killed the push early with his Queen micro (some clutch transfusions there). He barely lost imo. Though maybe he should have blocked his ramp with the queens (though i dont remember if he had any left at that point)
Why are people saying that IdrA should have blocked his ramp? The reason why theSTC got in his base was BECAUSE he killed the shit that was blocking the ramp, and IdrA just didnt have enough stuff to deal with the rest of the push. Any zerg player knows that unless you specifically scout that he is going marauder hellion that push in near impossible to hold unless you play super defensively.

Lol yeah, people don't realise that marauders will 2 shot queens on the ramp. He simply needed banelings on the top, to give a nice surprise.
Hahah thought he was gonna GG when he lost 24 drones to that blue flame helion main drop + natural runby. Really nicely done to be able to come back from such a big disadvantage.
