Well when you've lived there for several years in Idra's case and..IDK how long HuKs been there? Almost a year? You're bound to be able to eat the food.

And I restate what I said before. Great players can have great records. Most of them do... but you're wrong if you think that great players actually spend time trying to top the ladder.


And you know this how? This is a really stupid assumption, especially with the Korean mindset regarding competition in mind. Koreans want to be the best, every player that is playing on ladder is trying their best.

Also, part of being a great player means that you have to have motivation. If you don't have motivation (like LiquidTyler had some motivational issues for example) you simply will not be able to deliver quality results.


Because the best players (including even Idra) wouldn't do something as arbitrary as play only to win online, ladder points? Playing to ladder and playing to get better are two different things, man (though you can get better by laddering).

And by your rationale, having motivation would mean doing the most to become a better player - ie practicing in a more productive way than just beating fools on ladder.


FOOLS on ladder? Lol, Korean grandmasters are definitely not "fools", you need great mechanics, multitasking and decision making to be there.

You're probably just trolling me because you find the most random parts of my post to respond to. Whatever.
If what I think is happening is happening - it better not be.

idk why people are freaking out about his 50%-ish winrate on ladder. It means he is finally getting a challange and can actually practice from ladder whereas on NA server he usually just facerolls people or loses to dumb cheese.

IdrA's match history looking pretty rough : / at least that means he's learning a lot. I hope he's getting some customs in with the Slayers best players and is experimenting on ladder. It's good to see that he's actually being challenged instead of sort of going on autopilot laddering on NA.

Who, Stephano?

It's because of his mass ling style.

He gains early game safety and mid-game power.

IdrA tries for fast expos and mutalisks, which makes him extremely powerful mid-late game, but weak in the start.

Idra seems to win majority of customs, and probably losing to all ins on ladder. Stephano had ZvZ trouble as well, he isn't immune to KR ladder.

I've heard that there is a lot more variety in builds (and also all-ins). All-ins are idrAs weakness (maybe?) so it's pretty hard to get really high win %. Maybe idrAs style is more responsive and stephano dominates the game flow and forces his opponent on a certain path or something (i haven't actually watched his games too much, but i'm just making up possible explanations). Or stephano is just better at laddering mass BO1.
