But I doubt he intentionally played bad, and he didn't really play bad as much as play standard - which is why he lost since Nony crafted his builds to counter standard. Maybe Nony revealed his hand too early. But then again, maybe he didn't - after all, Dallas isn't just Idra vs. Nony. Both have a lot of other opponents to go through first if they're going to meet at all. | ||

The fact that the underdog won in convincing fashion is enough to appreciate the series. Those saying IdrA doesn't care about the showmatch... why would he even bother accepting? You play to win the game. Sponsor thing, hello?? But you are right too. Horrible series imo. Nony played well tho. | ||

As for people saying nony revealed his hand, if anything he showed hes capable of throwing out a decent variety of PvZ strategies with possibly more i beleive this unpredictability is been underestimated by the majority of people posting right now. | ||

Well-crafted build orders are common, while a well-crafted post like this is like a white elephant on the LR threads. | ||

Nony's play with blink stalker was fantastic, and Idra clearly has trouble dealing with 3 gates expand into 5 gates, even when he scouts it. In the last game i think he was getting too scared of that build and went for a preemptive push thinking it would be that build again. I don't think Idra played poorly, he just knows how strong 3 gates expand into 5 gates is, and knows he has to stop that before the 5 gates are up. Unfortunately for him Nony managed to hide his stargate just long enough in the last game. | ||

On the other hand, Tyler totally took advantage of IdrA's standard play. exploited key weaknesses, great use of chronoboost to reinforce army much quicker than IdrA probably expected, and was the aggressor the whole time. GG | ||

Then you'd imagine he would be "metametagaming" against HuK in a match he's had nothing to lose in, than a $400 match against Tyler of all people (given the history between them). Edit: and as for "hiding the strategies before MLG", I wouldn't hold my breath. In fact, I'd put the amount of money Tyler just won on IdrA using the same general strategies he used against HuK and tonight. =P | ||
