Except Kas is one of the best foreign terrans. That guys macro is pretty good ;o Feast as well have been showing lots of good play lately EDIT: I mean relatively top pros. None of them come close to the Code S players, but these are no slouches either | ||

None of them come close to the Code S players, but these are no slouches either Kas, Feast, DarkForce, and ReaL are by no means bad, but they aren't at the level of top Korean pros like MMA, DRG, Polt, Genius, MC, etc., or top foreigner pros like Stephano and Naniwa. IdrA is by no means bad, either, but he's not among the best foreigners anymore. As long as IdrA stayed in Korea and lost cross-server matches and matches against top Koreans, there was still the hope that he was among the best foreigners. IEM was a blow to that, and coupled with how poorly IdrA has been playing in everything as of late, it was a crushing blow. IdrA needs a win right now. He needs it badly. | ||

He has won next to none of his games, and I don't remember the last time I watched him win a series in a tournament recently. | ||

IdrA is doing well -> losing a tournament like that is a non-issue. A fluke. But he's not doing well. IEM is one more example of him not doing well, the clincher being that this time he's losing against foreigners. | ||

As of late he has just been playing terrible as compared to how he was before. | ||

It's also IronSquid (albeit, that was played at least a month ago), MLG Winter Arena, multiple team arenas and at least two show matches. It's obvious that IdrA is in a bit of a slump right now. No need to be doom and gloom about it, but there's also need to pretend otherwise. | ||

Two weeks before IEM there was MLG Winter Arena, where Idra dropped out first round 0-4. Then he went 1-4 at IEM. In between, he lost (almost or actually) every team league match he played. In Korea, he lost both show matches he played 0-4. And at the moment he is 0-2 in his group in Iron Squid. That's not even debatable, he's doing really bad for quite some time now, even at foreigner events. It'd be cool if he'd showcase great matches soon, but there's no point in denying facts. | ||

Ironsquid: 2 Koreans, one being a top Korean MLG Winter Arena: 2 Top Koreans 2 Showmatches: 2 Top Koreans Don't think Idra was expected to win any of those, capable? Sure, but not expected. Team areans you could throw out that they were cross server as excuse | ||
