I wish that on game 2 after getting bunker rushed, he pushed away the keyboard for a few seconds, rage building up as he remembers all the blood tears and sweat he suffered to get to where he is until BOOM RAGE LIMIT BREAKER HAPPY FEET WOMBO COMBOOOOOO

Would've been so epic if he had won and comeback with the rage still on his face, he would be so feared in all the land of sc2

+ Show Spoiler [Like this guy] +

Next time IdrA, show us the power of your rage!! We're all rooting for you!

Are there any interviews or other reactions of IdrA to the matches against Jinro in the RO8? I'd like to read / see / hear what he thinks about it.

I play zerg and im a huge fan of IdrA but sometimes I wish he would switch races and own all just to prove a point.

He's already played thousands of hours as Zerg, he's better off sticking with his race until Blizzard fixes it.

Then he will own all.

That's assuming Blizzard will fix it. Tbh I think he would be better off just race switching. He could always switch back later.

It's been nearly a year already since the beta began, and the fundamental problems with Z still remain. In that light I think it's unlikely to expect them to be fixed in the next 12 months before HotS is released, when I HOPE something huge will change with the race. Probably better off as T or P for the moment.

Am I alone to think that the main issue with the racial imbalance isn't any race itself, but the terrible maps pool ? I mean about 90% of the maps pool gives some edge to terran/protoss (even macro maps like Metal always end up being in close position, at least it happened to me 6 times in a row so far on the ladder).

I think that when the GSL will use it's own map pool, then the game will be much more balanced. And then maybe Blizzard's going to understand/open their eyes on their mistakes.

it will help a lot, but there are also late game imbalances like a Zerg not being able to touch a well mixed protoss or terran army after they have the broodlord counter

Race switching is incredibly hard. He would have to learn two entirely new matchups. It's just not worth it all.
More to the point Zerg suits him really well and he's managed to establish himself as a top top Zerg player. It seems a long way away now but Blizz will fix the balance sooner rather than later.

Although I laughed when I first saw it, you should know he was apologizing for calling him Grack and not being a dick when he said that.

Good luck next time Idra. Kind of sucks that you had to go out that way. If only Jungle basin didn't exist.

Loss or not, IdrA is still one of the best and most memorable players. Good luck next season =)
