Grudgematch of the century, Idra vs Morrow.

I wish both of them could win, but Morrow's terran is seriously crazy good, but on the other hand, if there's anyone who can deal with ZvT it's Idra.


why is it a grudge match? what kinda history do they have or is it just always a grudge match?


I don't think IdrA and Morrow ever hated each other. IdrA was complimenting him in a few interviews, so I'm sure he is just being stupid.

My only concern with Morrow is that TvT is his best match up, (I beleive he's said this himself)

And you know that Idra has been putting massive amounts of time to ZvT...


gl to both ... just make it exciting

IdrA dropped two games to Sarens, so if Morrow is smart...

I think it will be down to how much Morrow can abuse IdrA early game. If anything, Morrow could take maybe one drawn out game off of IdrA if he is playing his best, and the map is on his side. But his best chances are crippling IdrA early on and follow it with a strong push.

Both players would deserve the win. They beat some of the strongest foreign starcraft 2 players to get to the finals.

As much as i'm a fan of IdrA's playstyle and refined play i think that MorroW will win this bo7. In the last game vs. Dimaga he showed that he was willing to do everything it takes to win, while still being mannered about the perceived imbaness of his strategy. A big bonus point for IdrA is his refined play and his strict training routine if they need to play all 7 games. A bo7, even with a short break inbetween, at such high level of play should be really taxing on them.

So my money is on MorroW if the games will end quickly and on IdrA if they need to go over the full distance.

FIGHT IDRA!


+ 1

I'm indifferent whoever wins and by whatever means also. I find it admirable that MorroW tries to use various strategies against his players and only fell back on the reaper harrass when the series was on the line. It's a competition and any legitimate play is acceptable, of course there are consequences to your reputation if you are always about the cheese. MorroW has played exactly the way he should have in order to get to where he is in this tournament as well as to gain the respect of the viewers.

Mental toughness is also very important in competitive play and I think both IdrA and MorroW have that covered, watching the expressions on their faces has shown to me that they can handle the stress.

Dimaga vs Tarson though, I feel Dimaga has a more stable temperament so I think he will be able to win it, especially if he is able to drag it out. That being said, I think Dimaga made a brash decision in game 4 against MorroW when he tried to win it, had he not attacked when he did, his chances would possibly have improved with Ultras.

I have preference on IdrA hope he will win but it will be not easy at all I guess. MorroW is really good as T user

If IdrA is able to stop mass reapers, Morrow is doomed.

Idra is destined to win. His journey through this tournament is parallel to Jaedong, both being the only zerg that can stand up to "terran imbalances."

For Jaedong, it was Sea, Light and Flash

For Idra, it was Sarens, Tarson and Morrow

IdrA ftw. Morrow is a great player but I just cannot see him besting IdrA. IdrA is just too refined and methodical with his play. It is wonderful to see the way he spreads his creep and to look at this queens in the late game with low energy.

He has also been behaving very well this whole entire tournament with no BM to speak of. Keep up the great work IdrA!

Yes I noticed now it's 17:00 KST! Hopefully this is not a mistake and we will indeed be appreciating the finals sooner than later

Idra hwaiting! For the Swarm!

Stream covers the whole event not just the finals. Sc2 is just a part of a far larger event.

Game times in this thread are correct but games will prolly have some delay as usual.

From a substitution for Brak_OK. Morrow had worked his way to the final. Its like the 1992 Europe Football Tourney when Denmark was also a substitution for Yugoslavia and went on to win the that tourney.
Judging from how close Sweden and Denmark is, I think Morrow can take this :D
But I'm amazed by the way Idra playing and really want Idra to win

Morrow was more deserving to be in this tournament over some people (sarens, naniwa) given his success in TSL/beta.
