MC always scouts after pylon on 2 player maps soooo you're basically going to have no chance at all to win. Sounds like bad odds.

How can you say that after the first game? How can you NOT say that after the first game.
IdrA could have taken game 1 If he hadn't taken so much dmg early due to the early phoenix harass. I wish he would have been confident in himself to play another macro game instead of pretty much surrendering.

Man, that host just oozes charisma. I think I'm in love.

Idra made the right choice. And thats final.

Woooot! Whats the name of this song? :D
|
Man, Idra shouldn't get so frustrated....he had MC outplayed for a while in the first game, if he just played slightly differently he would have won it. Then he throws it away T_T

when a zerg cheeses, it's like "why are you throwing the game away"
i don't know what's more interesting, peoples attitude or the state of the game
Probably because 1 of those strategies is good and one sucks. There is no comparison.

this production is so sick :O i just tuned in after 12hrs of work and uni and i had the biggest nerdchills of my life during idra vs mc g1. excellent commentary (as expect if i may add) and ... this production....
STARCRAFT! ESPORTS! ALL HAIL!
|
Idra probably 6pooled cause he didnt believe he could win on shakuras =/
|
I've watched every GSL and the last couple of MLGs, also TSL but sorry guys, THIS is the best tournament I've seen so far. (TSL is a close second of course).
|
july 6 pool, genius idra 6 pool, retarded
i cannot understand the logic of live report threads, the 6 pool no matter who is doing it comes down to when it is scouted, people always say how idra should throw some cheese or 6 pool into his style and when it does people complain.

HES MY MARTYR <3 LOVE YOU STILL IDRA

Crap. I turned away for one second and game 2 is over. Can anyone tell me what happened?
|
idrA is such a waste of talent.
|
Idra's greatest downfall is himself. He came into the tourny with the mental mindset that he had no chance of beating MC. Then he played game 1, fell behind due to the phoenix harras, came back and pulled ahead for a bit and still ended up losing.
Instead of Idra looking back at what he did and improving upon it (granted he only had 2 mins), he just thinks well that was my best and it didn't work so I might as well 6 pool. Same thing w/ the Huk match in Dallas. Rather than actually push and give it a go vs. the voids he just gave up. Idra gave up when he decided to 6 pool game two against MC.

What chance? He knows and have stated that he doesn't have a chance vs a top tier protoss.
|
Does IdrA really think MC has never been 6 pooled on xel naga beforee??
|
...... *sigh* Sometimes I feel the biggest opponent of Idra is himself. I mean I can understand where he's coming from with the imbalance issues, but it feels like going into the game with a mindset of 'Zerg sucks and can't beat protoss' already positions him to lose
|
Idra games are truly the most entertaining to watch.

Yep, MC likes to deny the 14hatch.

yeh he is!!!! Always loved him when he was casting WoW arena's, actually wondered the other day what he'd be doing seeing wow died out. I'm so glad to see him here in sc2 now, and hopefully he'll get more gigs, because he's really funny and charismatic!
