Hey i've always been anti-idra, but I have to say that the difference between idra and a loser is that idra wants this with his whole heart and I give him big props for not giving up. Keep up the practice man, the results will show. You probably know that better then anyone else.

I don't think its unreasonable for a professional gamer not to want replays released. Just because we released replays before does not mean we automatically must release replays until the end of time.


I doubt anyone would like to have them to copy idra's "progamer BO's" since they were a utter failure. I just want them to be able to watch F91 rape him at any time ^^

This. I'd have just wanted to see his 2-hatch muta BO tbh.

It has been stated several times on the last pages of this thread that the replays won't be made public.

the funniest aspect of this whole thing to me is that T v Z is supposed to be Idra's best match up and is "eons" ahead of his other matchups ... my god if this is his best match up I can't imagine how bad his TvP or TvT is. It's also funny how he predicted he would own F91's muta harass since his muta defense is supposedly "progamer" level, yet F91 made him look like an utter noob with his mutas. I mean if he's still playing like that after practicing 10-12 hours a day for a year straight, it's obvious he has no potential.. I think he's probably as good as he will ever get (which sadly to say is not even close to progamer level)

this proves what a horrible mistake it was to just give Idra his progamer liscense without him having to go through courage... I bet he would still be trying to pass courage right now if he hadn't been spoon fed his liscense, and I think having to go through that process is important to a progamer's development... I mean it's a downright embarrassment having Idra running around with a CJ tag pretending to be a progamer..what a joke..

I know everyone is saying lighten up on Idra.. but I just love seeing cocky, arrogant douchebags get put in their place. I was loving every minute of that series... don't hear Idra talking any shit now LOL...

A lot of the comments in here are kind of petty and overly harsh, but you have to see that coming when you talk shit and you get pwned to the point where the strengths you bragged about look like weaknesses.

Keep in mind that Idra is young. A year of practicing isn't really all that long compared to how long most young Koreans train before they become progamers. People that are saying it's hopeless for Idra are over reacting in a very predictable way. F91 is an excellent player. Idra has a ways to go, but if he keeps at it, we can't really predict where he'll end up.

My prediction for Idra 1 year from now: He will be doing something we did not predict he would.

Listen. Idra is not young. As a matter of fact, youth is an advantage if anything. Koreans were worried Nony would pull an epic fail because of the fact that he was old. He did well to prove them wrong but I doubt "youth" is a factor in Idra's weakness. I mean comeon, look at Flash.

I understand you are trying to defend a player who just lost but you really have some holes in your argument. There was no "year of practising". He's been playing Starcraft seriously for longer than a year, playing against some of the top players and having a lot of competition. He was expected to skyrocket in skill after going to Korea but it seems like he was just made of fail. When he repeatedly lost in courage league, we simply said the same thing that you did - "Idra has a ways to go, but if he keeps at it, we can't really predict where he'll end up. My prediction for Idra 1 year from now: He will be doing something we did not predict he would." Obviously nothing has come out of it.

F91, on the other hand, is an amazing player who should seriously consider going to Korea himself. Had he been practicing with Koreans, not only normal Koreans but progamers, not only progamers but freaking CJ Entus, he would roll over any foreigner without any problem. It was only because it was Idra that TL was split on whether he would win or not. F91 exceeded most if not all realistic expectations and I hope the CJ coach watched some of the games so that F91 might get recruited.

I had been very hopeful of Idra and the "drastic increase in skill" he has had. Too bad most of his time in Korea was fruitless. His cocky attitude (and constant challenges against the "foreign" scene) was just a front put up, defended by the fact that he is "in Korea" and "on CJ Entus" has done little to create a sense of pity in me to defend him now.

By the way, this wasn't meant to bash your post. It simply served as a springboard into my rant.

edit: Now that I think about it, his time in Korea wasn't totally fruitless.

well I avoided looking in here since the series was played.And I'm feeling like I should never have.

Why all the bashing who cares lets show some love for ALL the guys that put in time and effort to give us a great series between two gamers that 89 percent of the people in this thread could never reach.

Yes Idra lost and?Was he bad mannered?Really I dont care Im just excited I got to watch my first English commentary vods, something Ive yet been able to do.

I have to say wow chill/plexa you two rock my arse off thank you thank you thank you

F91 and idra also thank you for playing and giving me some fun stuff to watch.

Really thanks allot everyone,from r1ch to carnac to mani and any and all others that put in hours of their time for me and the rest of us here.You are Appreciated to bad its under appreciated by some.

I LOVE YOU GUYS.

well he's not playing, he's training with them :D

now that i have watched the games i have to say idra didn't play that bad although he made a lot of mistakes. but i think these mistakes were more a result of his attitude and not his general game sense (like first game moving all out and letting his base die. i guess he thought F91 wouldnt dare to attack until he had a few marines out to defend..). F91 played quite unusual, going 2base/lurk second game....

still, after 9 months progaming experience one should expect that Idra not only wins the series but moreover loses only 1 or 2 maps. i mean, if the foreigner style was so difficult to play against all the pros at blizzcon would have problems. but oh no, they rape the shit out of everyone (although mondragon f.e. plays a lot more standard).

w/e, i'm disappointed. #2 to the guy saying that idra shouldnt have got his licence without winning courage, i also dont think he'd managed to win it for a long time.

€: and what u have to keep in mind, F91 went 4-0 and then played hyd. 4-0, he could have maybe even won 6-1 or 7-0. jesus idra, seriously

I think Idra is a bit stubborn.
He kept to his M&M builds and never shifted out of it.
