I don't like how the TL news seems to be always hating on Greg these days.

I don't think that's really true, but I kinda agree with Spec. Whenever they do any sort of power rankings or whatever, rather than just leaving him out because of his recent lack of results, they choose to take jabs at him for not having any recent top finishes. It's a little unnecessary. It's not a big deal, but it's pretty silly that they continue to comment on him regardless of whether or not they place him in their rankings.

Meh. IdrA is a polarizing figure. I suspect many mods like him and many mods dislike him - that's just fine. As for the news, it's reasonable that most recent mentions of IdrA would be negative considering his play. Let's hope IPL can reverse that.

I am actually fine that they exclude him, or rank him low on these arbitrary rankings. But what bugs me is that they always have to be like "IDRA RAGE RAGE. Will he ever win again?"

Idra will play at 5.00 am against bomber. Have to wake up early, hopefully i will see good games in return and no all-ins and early gg's.

IdrA was excluded from the IPL4 Power rankings so I suppose you got your wish. I think it was a fair decision.

IdrA will go 0 – 4 in his group – 1 to 3


If I could throw in a picture of White-Ra somewhere, our trifecta of pandering would be complete.
Wax: How could we not make an IdrA related bet? Tough, but I actually think IdrA is being underrated here. Of course, there's no chance in hell that IdrA will beat MMA, who is the best TvZ player in the world by some stupid margin – forget whatever you've seen MKP do in recent weeks.

However, an IdrA > Bomber upset seems totally reasonable. IdrA's biggest, most impressive wins over Koreans in tournaments have mostly come against Terran opponents, such as Mvp, SuperNoVa, PuMa, etc. Bomber at his best would definitely be favored to win, but he's always been an incredibly inconsistent player, going from 5 – 0ing teams in the GSTL to dropping out of the GSL in the same week, and going from winning to MLG Raleigh to getting eliminated by IdrA in Orlando...

There's a number of beatable opponents that could float in from the open bracket as well. ZvZ can be pretty volatile, so you never know what might happen against a BBoongBBoongPrime or ST_Curious. All-in-all, 1 to 3 seems a bit harsh for IdrA to lose every single series.

this is the part that talked about IdrA for those interested

i dont see how they can possible justify a 1:3 odds of him not winning a single set he didnt do so well at IEM but he has beaten Thorzain, MVP, Supernova and min recently and he had a good run at MLG

i dont know his group but i find it hard to beleive everyone in his group is a top tier korean

I am not an Idra fan, but I want to stop by his fan club to ask a serious question. Is there anyone who still believe Idra will win the upcoming IPL4? Reading through this thread it seems like people no longer have much faith in Greg. Months ago anytime Idra participates in a major tournament, there'll be tons of post proclaiming Idra to take 1st place. Now at most people expect him to make RO16, not come last in his pool or not gg too early. Have his fans come to expect so little of him?
