Free account stream works perfectly and is higher quality than teamliquid stream. | ||

I have newfound respect for CheckPrime. Lotsze credited him for helping formulate the strategy. In the second game of the series, the colossus rush juke basically won him the game, nothing to do with micro/mechanics. This is an example of winning a game purely through mind games. In all honesty, any player (with CheckPrime coaching and planning) could have won that game. In no way is this an insult to IdrA. I'm not saying he lost because of inferior skills. | ||

I could have 100% sworn he was microing individual scvs. My stream is delayed so it just came up and I was paying a lot of attention. MakaPrime is doing it with every SCV I saw, the Zerg isn't doing it. | ||

Sure he built the hype up throughout it, but that'd be like Idra already being in Semifinals and then people starting to hype him up. | ||

The only reason he's hyped is because the commentators are his friends/teammates and they are of course catering to the english crowd. And comparing him to flash is ridiculous, flash makes what, 300,000$ a year from his contract alone because of his skill? Idra can't hope to match that skill or winnings. Are you talking about BW or SC2 tournaments? Because its impossible to win a BW tournament, they are reserved for Flash/JD/other elite Koreans | ||

Pretty much this, although I definitely heard, "one of the favorites" so if you just squint your eyes maybe that's were people are getting it from =P. | ||
