I just watched through the Morrow vs Idra games. I did it kind of quick so don't kill me here if I'm wrong.

+ Show Spoiler +
Game 1
Pool at the same time at the ordinary time. Morrow went for a fairly quick expansion while Idra decided to put pressure on Morrow with ling blings. Morrow responded in kind and managed to hold off pressure from idra. As Idra backed off to take his own expansion, Morrow sneaked a few extra drones in and eventually Morrow got the better of Idra after a few favorable engagements. Morrow had about 40 supply to idras 25ish when he gged. Pretty close game with Morrow displaying some decent micro.

Game 2
Idra took the fast expansion this game and went for roaches while morrow went for speedlings into roaches. Idra had roaches out for morrows first poke and then Idra basically streamed roaches and lings down to morrow base until he got the upper hand with more roaches and earlier expansion.

Game 3
Both players started out the same 14g14p and then baneling nests. Spine crawler from idra while lings are poking around. Morrow took his expansion around 30 and Idra around 40. Both got their roach warrens, Idra starting his +1 as well as holding a slight drone advantage through the first half of the game. They started their lair at the same time and at the 11-12 minute mark they had basically the same amount of roaches and morrow a few more lings while Idra still holding a 5 drone advantage. Morrow pushed up with his roaches but backed off when he saw Idras amount as well as Idra having +1, and started to break down the rocks to his gold. As Morrow takes his gold while his +1 is starting, Idra is already on his way with +2 and +1 defense and speed upgrade.
Both went for hydras, Idra ealier and a little more heavy than morrow. When Idra finally decided to push into Morrows gold expo they where bascially even in food and army at around 160, Morrow having more roaches and Idra more hydras. Idras army being 2-1 in upgrades while morrow was 1-1 eventually came out on top of the battle and Morrow ggs soon after. One big clash kind of game where Idra just had a slightly better build through the game imo.



+ Show Spoiler +
short summery of game 2: Morrow build too much drones and Idra attacked at the right time

And you forgot one of the most important things in game 3: Idra sneaked 3 banelings in Morrow's natural, which killed ~6 drones, I think this was the deciding factor

Bloody ell, there's no VODS except Idra-white-ra and Ace-Morrow? really? that is JUNK.
are more vods available to premium subscribers? no way i'm going to buy a premium pass if they dont know how to put up vods of more than two matches in the span of 10 hours..

Any other source of vods? spoiler-free

vod damn ESL!

Calm down. There will be vods of every single game but it takes some time to get them up. There were other tournaments (QL, CS), too.

well man they aren't even putting up the vods in chronological order.. so i'm trying to watch the ones that are up, but in those vods they spoil lots of the earlier results..
very disappointing on the vod coordination so far

More Korean responses translation from playxp.

- how is it possible protoss lost with 8 gas?
- I understand now why Blizzard's patches are always awful after I watched ESL
- idra became weaker since he left Korea.... lost one game?(vs morrow) what's wrong with you?
- why no stream for Ace?
- lol caster is saying Korean terms pong pong mode
- I've waited for a long time to watch Ace's play... it sucks.
- caster and commentator are so funny though play level is not high.
- foreign players are rough gemstones. they have potentials and creative playstyles.
- idra's thought; Damn, I just ran away from Korean but why they came here and put obstacles in my way...
- come back, grack I miss you
- why foreigners don't construct production buildings? He got two expo but only four gateways and one Robotics facility... terran has only four or five, too. even though he has over than 1000 mineral
- Come on, foreign terran players! We need Terran nerf!


and dear playxp users. I know some of you guys criticized my post.
I don't want Korean scene is isolated from the foreign scene like BW scene.
You don't need to make fake good image of Korea. you're not judged by your nationality.
We need more open communication, don't be afraid and be a citizen of the world.
Good luck for some of you who post "damn I'm gonna learn English with Teamliquid" cause I'm doing the same things.

I'm gonna sleep now.

They're so full of themselves it makes me really upset tbh. A lot of the plays in GSL has been far from impressive as well and they're already claiming that they are lightyears ahead. Get a reality check, the level of play the korean netizens are seeing here are not as far away from their precious GSL.

I don't know why you are upset with fans. It not like the korean players saying that. Everyone think the players from their country is the best.
