Like orb vs idra going 3 matches.
My god, this is completely standard. They could very well just have an anti spoiler dummy game for the third game, many of the games on VioletAK are just like this.

IDRA IS A BITCH...c'mon we all know it be true, don't deny it. Nobody likes a rage quitter.

dont understand why people are so surprised when zerg scouts for proxies. if the player has zerglings, and cant do anything else with them.. given that protoss likes to proxy stuff, it's normal to take your idle zerglings and just check all around for proxies. if you're not doing this you should probably start getting in a habit of doing it every game vs protoss, unless there was something to clue you in that theyre almost assuredly not going to proxy

Big thanks to HD and Husky. Really nice tourney so far.

Yeah, every series has 3 replays, it doesn't matter how many games are actually played, there will always be 3 replays.

He still is bm though, so I hope he gets destroyed in the next round.
How is scouting lucky? wtf is this comment lol. Scouting is a intentional decision to avoid luck. Making Void Rays was the luck because it relies on nothing you do, but rather your opponent not to do something.
Still, very WP on game 2 by Orb.

Did anybody else feel really bad for orb in that interview? He sounded really sad when he was talking about how IdrA has no respect for him

uhm, Bnet shutting down O_O

Scouting for proxies is totally standard and expected when you're ahead like Idra was.

It's natural to have higher expectations for Idra since he is a pro-gamer, whereas Orb is just... Well, according to Idra, a gold leaguer. So Idra dropping a game to Orb is a pretty big deal considering it was because he couldn't handle early 2-gate zealots (wasn't that his weakness in BW as well? Not being able to handle early 2-gates?)

I hate to say but I actually gained some respect for orb! No BM like everyone was expecting from him and pulling a great win from the 2nd match.

Yea but most dummy replays are just a copy of game2. When HD started up game 2, you saw that game 3 was a different map and game length. Thus, spoiler. Also orb spoiled it in his interview after game 1. He said he has a "specific build prepared and... wait don't want to spoil it".

Exactly!
IdrA had quite the advantage after his fast expo held. IdrA and Orb both know that Orb has to try something risky to get back into the game because he is behind and he isn't going to be able to outmacro IdrA and come back. Two ways Orb can come back are hidden expo and hidden tech. The zerglings scouting account for both of these. Just a veteran move by IdrA

And why are you quoting me? I agree with you, lol. I was just laughing about the guy saying that the commentators are biased against Idra when it's not true.
