Yep. Cannons went up behind the buildings. The ling follow-up would have done 0 damage, the game was over, Idra could NOT hold a 2-base 6gate when c-boost finished warpgate.
In other news, he had a good ladder run tonight

I just wanted to say - I've seen a lot of drama on the Day 14 board about the whole BM incident and I want to apologize for that. I personally think it was uncalled for but at the end of the day that's my OPINION and having a different one does not make you a mindless fanboy. Quite honestly I think it's great that Idra has so many fans - that much support backing him has got to be very powerful. I hope nobody has caused trouble around here tonight, and if they already have, let me be the first to say I'm very sorry. I hope you all have a good rest of the night!!

IdrA beat Hasuobs with this push in flipped positions in EGMC

What BM did IdrA give MaNa?
|
IdrA's got a very easy MLG group.
Yes, it contains Bomber, but it also contains two zergs of lesser skill than IdrA. IdrA will 2-0 both of those easily and most likely beat SjoW too.
Even if he goes 0-2 against Bomber, he'll still get second for sure.

TB has a clear bias towards whoever faces Idra. The guys not a good shoutcaster, nor does he keep his personal emotions to himself in a professional setting. Can see why IPL hired him due to his popularity.. just don't know how people can actually like this guy.

"nor does he keep his personal emotions to himself in a professional setting" you shouldnt have problems with that

There is a difference between a player and a commentator.
|
Big fan, can anyone explain to me why IdrA has had some poor tournament placements?/
Is his training regimen not rigorous enough?
|
There was a long thread on here about biased casters, that ended with chill trolling everyone with an unbiased cast. I don't think you can expect a caster to be unbiased, and with the history between TB an IdrA i think some bias is to be expected. I don't think it was over the top. Also caster with no emotion would be boring to.

Also caster with no emotion would be boring to. There are different nuances of being BM, biased and so on. Chill's cast was brilliant but oversimplified arguments are never adequate. For example, at the DreamHack finals Day9 was clearly biased towards the foreigner, Huk but he was never disrespectful of his opponent, Moon, and this was perfectly fine.
