Also, he was already barely breaking even with MC's army, having 4-8 hydras not in his army would've just lost it faster for him.

Oh Greg... you are a good player, an excellent player, outstanding... and you know that! But I have the feeling you do not believe in yourself and what you are able to. Have trust in your own play and for gods sake and your own... play it out!
We all know that you have to guess how your opponent is doing, what's the supply count in comparison and so on - but you know that you have to fight!
You've earned another BIG victory in a tourney and you have what it takes. Simply do it. Believe in yourself, do not care if your opponent is a Protoss or not. You know you are gosu and you are able to beat everyone...
Please work on your mindset, don't let youself give up because you are a zerg. Be strong, fight for the swarm and say "I'm proud to be a zerg and I can own everybody because I'm a zerg!"
We all know you can do it and we believe in you.
Yours, obsKura <3

Very well said. I can only hope that the Gracken looks at this performance and uses it to get better as a player AND as a competitor. I'm sure he could have very well won this tournament.

Raging hard at idra for losing to the arguably BEST PLAYER IN THE FUCKING WORLD
I understand they can be upset at the games and cheese, but give it a break.
I can only laugh at those people... I'd like to see them go that far in this tourney..as stacked as it is...morons...
Jealousy and hate are just too easy to obtain...

"These are all fans of IdrA's whos expectations were let down not only by his performance, but much more importantly: his attitude. People are not just flaming him to flame him they are upset that they have been let down. Their posts show they still care and would like IdrA to change his ways. I think it's a valuable lesson if he can disregard all the faggot flame posts from idiots."
Yeah...still applies.

Ok, I read the last 20 pages of this thread. You guys should remember this is a fan club. If you are going to come to insult players or troll fanboys I'm going to ban you for weeks. No more warnings. It's pretty tiring having to read through 20 pages just cause a couple of idiots can't contain themselves from laughing at other people over a video game.

Not bad at all IMO. Idra won the same amount as he would winning GSL Code A (which lasts over 20 days?) in 3 days. It's a decent amount of money but it can be used to question the opportunity difference which is presented via the MLG GSL partnership Congrats to Idra for finishing 4th/5th!
but as you know he was code s. and imo he was making much more money in code s than he did in mlg/ipl, you know big na/eu tourneys.

It isn't bad but considering he's played against Korea more than the other 'foreigners' I wouldn't be happy if I was him.

The reason why many people are so disappointed IMO is because we all know that there was a lot more to Idra's gameplay than what was shown today.
He went toe-to-toe with MMA.
He went toe-to-toe with MC.
4th place is indeed exceptional, but he had the capacity to do better.

I'm proud of you IdrA ! 4th place good job!

now lets watch losira and see how idra should have played.

I think everyone else is too... Keep this an IdrA fanclub, not a thread to cry about how Zerg is underpowered or how other players are bad or cheesy because once that starts, you shouldn't expect everyone else to sit back and let their favorite players get talked down.
There are players who are fans of both IdrA and MC, if they come here and see that, there's no problem with them standing up for MC. Best solution? Talk about IdrA, don't talk shit about other players and don't turn this thread into a balance discussion.

I'm sure Greg will slap on the game face and come back in full force, and become as unstoppable as he was on MLG day 1... and it will be beautiful.

As do I. ^^
I got baited pretty hard.

Gotta say though, i hope Losira beats mc! and i hope idra can get that feeling of hopelessness out of his head.
|
WORD. I hope IdrA enjoys the rest of his time in Columbus with his teammates - best thing he could be doing.
|
Greg,
You proved to everyone this weekend that you are the best foreigner in the world.
Stop getting psyched out and you'll prove even more.
|
i'm really disappointed in how MLG ended 
i think i agree with what MMA said - be more positive, idra!
