sometimes i feel like he would win all these games with his old ling bling muta style... This is how I feel, Idra without mutas is like MarineKing without marines. I don't even know why he isn't doing bling muta anymore, not all the time ofc but it could be a big surprise for the opponent who had prepared for infestors. Sometimes bling muta and sometimes ling infestor, he is really good with both of those styles, i see no reason why not to changes sometimes.. Btw. is this "no motivation" and "he hates the game" thing new "idras mindset" meme
Ling bling muta isn't good any more because most terrans are getting double upgrades really early now thus rendering mutas useless unless you go double spire, which isn't very good.

it's just idra's mechanics that is horrible at the moment, he is just playing straight up awful in all matchups.
Its so little about ''feel'' and ''bad matchups'' he is just hovering too much queen energy, too bad builds, too bad engagements and just playing terrible.
Stephano is terrible in zvz - But he has 0 queen energy so he wins over every other foreigner despite.
Idra is just playing bad, you can even see it on ladder.

true but he would win 90% of his matches if he just controls his late game army better.

Though that may be true in many games,the games today were lost more so because of some bad decisions, and bad army control

Had to check up on IdrA recent results. Too bad for the guy. Hopefully things turn around for him soon.
|
Stay positive IdrA, you have an insane amount of experience to draw from. Try to figure out how your thoughtproces might be sending you in the wrong paths for decision making, maybe you can find some solutions there. Read up on some chess principles and/or see how you can balance out your micro, macro, attack agression, passivity etc.

Oh man IdrA its becoming more and more difficult to call you a reputable foreigner, i never thought you where great or terrible just somewhere in the middle who could do better or worst based on his mindset. But i can't remember the last time i saw IdrA win a game, hoping IdrA that you will be able to re-surge in HoTS it seems that his chances with LoL are out

The latest Inside the Game. They were talking about how Nestea did a muta switch or something

IdrA has an uncanny ability to lose games where he plays better. It's a mystery...

In the game on Antiga, he had solid macro and great positioning. The first big engagement was pretty even iirc, then the one after that swung things into Idra's favour. After that, instead of pulling back, he continued to push forward, throwing his lead away, not having enough lings to compliment the ultras and throwing all his infestors away at the same time.
From that point on it went down hill. After the 2nd engagement when he took the lead, he should have imo switched into broods. Hindsite is 20/20 so who knows.

It is such a shame that muta ling bling has become almost obsolete. ZvT was so exciting when everybody was doing it. Watching marines get fungaled isn't nearly as thrilling as watching them run from banelings.

I think all he needed was banelings. He killed the tanks but bio killed him, with banes, bio would have just melted.

He didn't have lings or fungals to keep them in place, and there were just too many medievacs I think. They would certainly have been useful at some points, but not enough to change the game unless Dream fucks up

Banes is a short term solution. he had a good economy, but still limited on money. if you invest in banelings you have a considerably smaller army, and tech units like ultras and infestors will be really hard to get. And you cant make a switch to brood lords.

plus terrans got pro st spreading so its ahrd to make banelings cost effective at all

It's hard to be a fan, I wished he would just win more

Didn't watch Idra because Chelsea winning CL final > All
but I see he went 0-2, something is clearly wrong, I'm not sure what the problem is as I haven't seen many of his games lately, I had a thought a while ago that he should take a week break or so and redevelop his matchups because he seems to be behind the metagame or so from what I've heard.
