I love idra, I listen to him on state of the game and hold him in high regard as a player, albeit one with some very real problems.

His overconfidence going into the cruncher match and his defeat was still a glorious thing to watch unfold. He might use the embarrassment as a time to reflect on the mindset he had before he went into the game, and become a realistically confident player instead of one who says silly things like "he's just going to 4gate" on a public interview.

I'm torn though because the one who says silly things like that is far more entertaining.

Does anyone think Idra will actually win anything in the west? or do you think he will get frusterated and move back to korea. Basically his plan was to come back here and own up all the tournaments, we will wait to see how he does at MLG but i think that he thought the west was going to be a "walkover" compared to korea and now since hes been back he hasnt been doing wellat all lol

Idra vs Cruncher. The really made it. When the matchup was first announced I thought I'd support Idra, despite not being a big fan of him at all. I didn't like how Cruncher made his way through to the TSL. But then he showed some good results in other stuff (beating Sjow and PainUser, for example). So it was a bit of a tie.

But then Idra failed to gg. And when the "" came I literally laughed out loud, and chuckled for the next half hour. It only got better when I saw the screenshots Cruncher posted of the game lobby comments by Idra.

Definately Adelscott vs MVP.

1) The upset factor - I don't think anyone genuinely expected MVP to lose this
2) The tactics employed by adelscott - the build he used isn't something we see all that often, most games revolve around lots of collosus and/or templar - so it was pretty interesting to see the mass upgrades and warpgate units

I'm surprised so many people voted the the Idra vs Cruncher series, it was pretty boring.

Game 1 - Protoss turtles up in a very easy to defend position and masses an unstoppable army. Idra doesn't respond perfectly and loses to it.

Game 2 - Ok sure, this one was pretty awesome. During game 1 I was talking to a friend saying "If he would just go for some kind of fast hydra drop he coulda probably won that". He did it in this game and dominated.

Game 3 - Pretty standard protoss all in. Frustrating to watch, I'm so bored of this style of play.

I agree! I think the only things that were unique about this series were the bm, hydra drops, and that cool forcefield pattern that trapped the roaches in place

Are there any rules against bm like that?

cruncher over idra wasn't as suprisign as adelscott over mvp, that was utter domination with the sick upgrades/warpgate play by adelscott.
