The point wasn't getting IdrA beat but rather him to stop getting psyched out playing against certain players. | ||

His showing at HSC was better but he still got beaten pretty hard by Huk and I can't imagine someone like Losira losing in such a fashion given the same situation. | ||

This just explains your lack of understanding of the game. General correct rule is that zerg needs an expansion ahead of his enemy. A forge expand with cannon block that MC did versus Idra at Tal'darim Altar means that when Idras expansion is going up MC's is already secured with a wall-in of two cannons which will nullify all all-ins. Idra did what he could by doing an all-in but it was repelled since it was expected. On Shakuras plateau it was the same. The last game he played well, I would even say outplayed MC. But with only one upgrade lacking and the counter to stalkers (hydras, lings, infestors) he still lost. I'm not QQing about balance but Im just saying you dont know what youre talking about. | ||

No he hasnt, he has been playing on NA from EU just on a smurf. He is practicing terran, I'm 90% sure the account is his. But I think he doesnt want to stream because he is playing on a smurf and he doesn't want people to know he is switching(not 100% sure if he will switch yet since his Z is still way better then his T) | ||

I love you IdrA but I think someone should beat the piss out of you for you to not get mindfucked by worse players than you. Wow how ignorant are you lol. Have you been watching korean ZvP recently? They are getting raped by blink stalkers. Blink is what huk beat idra with and what the koreans are beating zergs like Sheth with as well. The only time a zerg wins in the GSL is if the protoss does something retarded in the early game like let all their sentries die or lose their natural nexus. | ||

It's not as if I've kept a record of all of his games at MLG, but I remember him saying for one of his games that he specifically wanted Backwater Gulch. The only reason for that being that it has a wide open ramp and from watching his stream you know that he loves to do the roach-ling allin on it. He went into that game knowing he was going to allin, choosing a risky strategy instead of one that could match MC in terms of skill. On the Tal'darim game I know he had to allin because he was behind, but that still doesn't excuse his other games like the one I just mentioned. | ||

His stalkers were 3-0 and he had a harvester lead most the game after idra scouted 6 gate. If there was a clear imbalance in the game Huk would have won with his first wave of blink stalkers instead of his second. The imbalance is pretty small, but can wins games for you. The biggest imbalance in this game is still the cheese aspect. A cannon rush just plain up beats any zerg any time. And protoss gets a huge advantage from it once it succeds. Should I say cannon contain instead? And this isnt an imbalanced thread, if you wanna talk about that go to the BNET forums. Im sure they would enjoy your company. | ||

I said facts, if you see what I said to be about imbalance than you have your own disposition. Also, protoss always has better upgrades if they want them, it's their racial advantage. They can get a 7gate +2 blink stalker attack with chroboboost timing attack before you even start +2. | ||

Why so rude, he just responded to someone ? Not like he brought the discussion here. To be fair, he just wants to defend IdrA.

What's that doing in the fanclub ? Maybe you should post that elsewhere instead of starting a flame war. | ||

Because TL doesnt like imbalance discussions and neither do I most the time. And when I do I go to BNET forums because the people there give better feedback about imbalance. Defending Idra is fine but if it is based on false assumptions then is is wrong. I prefer the truth over what someone thinks. It's funny how your 2 lines completely contradict the previous 3 He started it, I just responded. Some guy just said Idra should watch more Korean ZvP and then this guy just started raging about how zergs are getting owned in korea. Is that why Nestea says ZvP is the easiest match up? | ||

If it pisses you so much, then maybe you're not at the right place, as IdrA like to talk about balance. This isn't the "let's discuss IdrA" thread, this is the "IdrA FANCLUB" thread. Yet I still agree that there shouldn't be any balance discussions (because it's a common TL rule), but as I mentioned earlier, he wasn't the one who brought it to begin with. To Gosublade ; You're forgiven (at least I do forgive you for your mishap). | ||

Zenio, MC, HuK just to name a few. IMO But I mean this is pretty common knowledge. You can find posts about this ever since Columbus when he lost against MMA. Its clearly something hes working on, but I say just give him some time, its been like a month. | ||

Did anyone see that MLG has posted the groups for MLG Anaheim? IdrA's group has iNcontroL, SjoW, Sheth, and a Korean. Doesn't look like the hardest group he's ever been in but Sheth will have been practicing in Korea for a while, iNcontroL seems to have rededicated himself to being less of a caster and more of a player and SjoW was one of the few to take a game off of MMA. I think he can do well in the group though. | ||
