http://i.imgur.com/HQeEJ.png The bottom line is that if Idra had won his group he would need to win three more (consecutive) sets to win the tournament. Since he came second in his group, he will need to win six more sets to win the tournament. Here is a link to the brackets so you can see who he might be playing against. http://s3.majorleaguegaming.com/2011-orlando-starcraft2-champ.html# | ||

I mean, make Terran get gas for something other than Medivacs, Thors, and Siege Tanks. A zerg is going to spend more gas on Mutalisks than Terran will ever spend. It's frustrating to see Terran so gas light and still being ahead, especially with MULEs. You get some gas for upgrades and a small amount of gas units, and then get some of the most cost-efficient units in the game, and you can cut SCV's while still being ahead on mineral income. Whereas Protoss and Zerg (oh yeah, this isn't Zerg biased), you have to spend so much gas on all your units and still be expected to be on similar upgrades (Protoss is actually balanced around having Shield and Armor upgrades together) and have a huge amount of supply in Drones/Probes just so you can keep up with a Terran's income. I don't like that, I don't know how it got approved on paper, let alone getting past "in-house balance testing". + Show Spoiler + http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-serving_bias That's just the way it is...mkp did not win because of imbalance or anything, he won because at a crucial point, Idra made a mistake. | ||

MKP almost lost. I can't imagine someone losing, with all the math and numbers behind them. Idra was behind before the games even started, and almost won. It almost happened. The only reason it didn't was because, like you said, he made that mistake towards the end. What if MKP didn't have the numbers though... What if Terran needed to make the same amount of workers as Zerg or Protoss and what if Terran needed to spend more than 5000 gas in one game? I can't see that going in MKP's favor as well as it did for Idra. User was temp banned for this post. | ||

True, i also think MKP was never in THAT bad of a position as it was made to be. Its always more exciting to play it out as a massive comeback then a slight advantage to idra in the midgame. :/ still will be rooting for both Idra and MKP to meet again in the finals hopefully | ||

And he's going to lose and have a respectable finish. | ||

Game 2, MK played sloppy, overflowing in gas count and simply lost. Game 3, IdrA was doing well but during the last battle, he got too stubborn with his mutas and lost to 3-3 marines. | ||

i think in some way the lower marine count ( instead of like the 10 mkp had he could had like 40 or even more marines with minerals below 500 ) kind of sucked idra into the bad engament. if there would be like 50 marines he goes back plays defensive until he has a new round of ling / baneling and crushes him becouse of no tanks i think | ||

Everyone is right about how horribly he played game 1, but every other game made up for it! You could have had game 3, but keep fighting and you'll get first! | ||
