Do you really think that because you've got one build you use in every matchup, and you're good at using it, that means you're the best player around? The game is 6 weeks into beta and you've already drawn some pretty big assumptive conclusions.

If you do another one of these, could you please hide results in a spoiler Smuft? I know it's your prerogative, but it sure sucks opening the thread looking for vods/replays and being instantly spoiled.

I think its hard to accept but at the moment usa is behind the rest of the servers. Idra could have said it more tactfully but from my experience his observations hold a lot of truth.

not sure how you can make that assumption when hardly any US players are playing with EU people... even Artosis himself admitted that he hasn't actually played the Euros yet.

because it's in beta and because there's no league. even if he is a professional in every sense of the word he should be able to bm all he wants unless there is a specific rule against it. not some "unwritten rule". you guys sound like KeSPA, jesus.

Dude we're giving away money, if we want idra to say that we are his idols at the end of the game if he wants the money, he'll have to say it, or else he doesn't get to take part in the tournament, so quit being such a huge fanboy of idra and get used to the rules that people make when they host tournaments

I have played with both parties and I have also watched many recs from both parties, I am simply saying that I agree with the statement Idra has made, not with the approach he took to making it though.

i only play one build zvt because all you people do is retarded cheeses and that one build is the closest ive found to safe vs all of them.
whos better? someone who does a bunch of different builds and loses with all of them or someone who found a solid build and does it better than anyone else?

Idra i see your builds and i dont know how the hell you stop void ray rushes, normally you dont have lair till very late, do you have any scout info to see this coming? (i know normally you sac an Ovie but then the only possible thing you can do is queens or spore colonies and spores are terribad because you need like 200. I agree that one solid build is 100 times better than 5 builds which consist in your oponent screwing up or being greedy...

that makes absolutely no fucking sense. you agree that americans are bad europeans are cheesy and asians are better, and you think its fine to make that opinion public, but its not ok to say it bluntly? how fucking stupid is that.
