i really just want idra to practice more. We really couldn't expect much because right after his IEM China win (the end of his slump), he starting getting tournaments back to back and now he is declining again. I hope he will decline tournament invites and focus on the few big tournaments so he can start winning.

Well, looking forward to IdrA going back to Korea for some practice. Now that NASL is uninteresting I can at least play some more SC2.

He knew IdrA was going for mutas, so he goes for a timing attack before spire is done. It's not cheese, it's just IdrA being too predictable :/ He either needs to learn to defend those pushes while going for mutas, or he has to switch it up a bit.

No matter how good he is at that style, he's going to lose so many ZvTs if everyone knows exactly what he does every game.

Seems to me as they decided that it would be tactically better to send PUMA in for the kill as he has to defend his title.

The sad thing is they've played some pretty epic games before. I'm more disappointed in missing out on those than him losing. Oh well!

He just needs to play more people that are capable of hitting him right before spire finishes, that seems like a major weakness.

Or, whatever.

Kinda want to watch more matches tonight, but my interest has just waned severely.

Sad, I wanted to see a super epic series.

Puma just abused IdrA's early game weakness too hard. At least IdrA didn't leave early. Hope his practice in Korea gives him the time to adjust his playstyle.

Yeah, th games they played were amazing until Puma decided he wouldn't even try for the macro win. I really dislike Puma for that(Read hate)

may it be that Idra's ZvT style has been figured out with, for instance, those early pushes and is now outdated? Players like Leenok or July don't seem to use it as often, or even they use it only once in a while. What do you think?

Exactly. It wasn't cheese, it was just a build order that was designed to beat Idra's usual style. Idra has been playing that same style for too long. His ZvT used to look unstoppable, so Puma evolved his TvZ to adapt to that. Idra needs to evolve his ZvT at the same pace if he wants to remain dominant in the match up.

Yep, I was asking in the previous post because I think exactly the same, the style is outdated.

Even at my diamond level I've been finding more and more difficult to go fast muta because of these 9-10 minute pushes.

PuMa looked really good in these games and IdrA looked almost lost.
I'm a bit surprised the games turned out that way since IdrA looked really convincing against Strelok yesterday.
Regardless, I see a lot of good stuff for IdrA in the future. He has said a lot that all this traveling/those tournaments have been cutting into his practice time but he'll be getting quality practice time in Korea soon enough.
Still, $3000 for IdrA - not bad for a weekend.
