That is because Incontrol makes them do weights and stuff, and when you do like bench presses the muscles from your neck to your shoulders get big, I am pretty sure that is why.
also bench press is by far the worst exercise for a beginner so that's a bit dangerous.

That's not true.

that's not what i meant. watch his proportions closely. his shoulderwidth is 2 times his head's width and shoulders go in a weird angle. it's not overdeveloped lol, it's just disproportionate

if you work out you don't just concentrate on your neck... (and if you would that'd be not bench press)



Probably because of his height and also that most progamers have shitty postures. Have you seen naniwa? holy shit , I cringed whenever I saw how hunched over he is on the MLG stream

Pretty sure thats a weird statement.
He killed thirty of Nestea's drones and still lost, how is that capable at all?

He made a tactical and positional mistake. He could've won, but Nestea just hit some clutch timings and outpositioned IdrA.

If I remember correctly, NesTea was able to trap some of his roaches in a clump with fungals, allowing NesTea to take a better firing arc.

ZvZ is the most volatile and random matchup in the game so anything can happen. Idra can win over NesTea but can also lose vs Lucky because of the coinflippy advantages you can get.

Um it is, when beginning the most important thing to do is avoid being injured and bench press doing even slightly incorrectly can easily injure your shoulders. I guess squats are worse as you can't really fix a knee without a surgery but even so...


Anyway that's off topic, hopefully idra can get out of group C, I don't think he has great chances but they could be much worse. Nestea has looked shaky and if the stars align for him, it'd be possible for Idra to be second. Don't see him beating MVP though.

With the crazy amount of practice he's been doing in the SlayerS House - The Korean Terran Team House - you still think he will fall short of MVP? I disagree, but we will see.

And the last time IdrA and The Detective played in a Tournament, it was ridiculously close. If IdrA fixed the small errors then he has a very good chance of beating out NesTea as well - but it's ZvZ so meh. Last time I saw them play vs each other was on Ladder (TDA) with IdrA winning convincingly, but Ladder really doesn't say shit for either of these players.

Far as ZvZ vs Lucky, I'll go with IdrA.

Do you not understand Zerg at all? If you kill 30 drones with 4 Banelings and lose, then yes, you genuinely suck. If you invest 20 larva into killing 30 drones, it means you end up on even footing.

Nestea went econ, Idra went aggro, and both were in the same position when they went to the mid-game transition.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

You know what'd be epic? I just thought it up. After winning GSL, IdrA is taking his after-winning interview, takes the mic out of the interviewer's hands, and just says "I'm the Goddamn Gracken" and then walks out.

Well you see I'd love to see Idra beat MVP but it's MVP and I rate his TvZ the best in the world... in fact, I rate his XvZ the best in the world. Even with the crazy practice, well, you know, Slayers team has other Zergs too and I wouldn't pick them to beat MVP either. MVP practices vs Nestea regularly etc.

I also agree that Idras best bet is to beat Lucky and Nestea, I guess he MIGHT be able to take a game off MVP but two? That's really unlikely in my opinion though I'd be delighted if that happened.

It'd probably help if he didn't beat himself by being so easily frustrated.

You could almost tell when he said "fuck this" and checked out mentally.

Yeah saw that game too. Polt made really good decisions and killed of all of Idra's bases when he pushed with broodlords.
And Idra "awfoul" quit. LOL. Guessed he doesn't like losing in a macro game either.

I know someone who tore his scrotum because of an absolutely incorrect form on deadlifts.
