Fun write up, was a good read. I'm too surprised that Idra fell so low. Its a more favorable opponent than what he could ask for.

Why would you expect Thorzain to pick his own teammate? That seems like a strange prediction to me.


ah whoops, thought he was on mouz >_<

brb re-write D:

Not really a prediction if you change it later on due to public opinion.

However, in this case it was likely called for.
I can no longer rest under the tree of wisdom, since you have axed down the roots feeding it.

Polt's not doing too bad, per se. I think his results are just worse than we expect because of how stubborn he is. I think people are terrified of randomly being the first opponent where Polt decides to just play to win, rather than play to have fun.

If this is because Goody beat Nestea once, a very long time ago in TSL3, then I'm going to jump off a building.


Don't worry, Wax.
When you jump off that building and splatter yourself into little wax pieces,
we here at teamliquid promise to collect your remains, melt it and reform you again.
:D

Keep in mind, if he ends up doing well, we might just have to keep him.

Everyone is favored against goody. No matter how many golds goody brings esc, everyone is always favored against goody. Goody simply doesn't care and beats them anyway.

They were both at IPL4 UK qualifier, so he knows who he is, although they never played one another. Strange that he would pick him over Dream, HuK or even IdrA.

20$? I hope they are joking. Why would anyone pay for the 3rd(?) MLG PPV in like 2 Month...
Just keep playing D3 and catch the VODs of the best Matches a week later.

"Maybe IdrA was having just a particularly low moment, but basically admitting you have no passion left for the game and declaring defeat in public" -waxangel




what?? when??? if you're going to make outlandish statements like this you really should cite your source for this information. I have to assume you're trying to be sensationalist to get people talking about your writing or something. I have a hard time believing this took place. when and where did he "declare defeat" and in what context??

I do believe that text was a link (and not just underlined like it may have appeared to be) to an Inside the Game where IdrA basically said that he thought that SC2 was a shit game but he plays it because people are willing to pay him for it. I don't really remember though, and I don't feel like rewatching the whole episode, but I remember him saying something to that effect.

On last itg at the end he was asked a few questions which basically went like this:

Q: How are you feeling for spring arena 2 given you have been slumping quite bad. Do you feel good going into it?
A: Nah i just kinda suck now. Spring arena is not looking good for me.

Q: Have you gotten worse or everyone else gotten better?
A: Don't know. I still feel that I play well, but then i always just lose, so i guess everyone else has gotten better.

Q: You feel you leave too early?
A: Yes. The game is just frustrating for me so I leave too early a lot.
