That's how you're supposed to say it. That's how Artosis says it.


Idra himself stated that it's supposed to be e-dra


When you think about that though it sounds about 10x stupider than pronouncing it as eye-dra.
The ruminations are mine, let the world be yours.

Just like Nony himself stated that it's supposed to be Noo-ny before giving up and changing id to Tyler.

Tough luck, it is what it is. =)

Seriously, it's not cheese if it's on 2base. Just cause he's making a lot of units doesn't mean he's ALL IN. Please stop abusing the terminology.

Anyone else notice the irony that in this thread so many people are bagging out the casting, but when HD mentioned Idra was playing badly "OMG SHOW RESPECT"! Yes the casters should never say anything mean about anyone and forum goers should spend all day ripping players and casters new ones.

So much bitching about hd in this thread. What the fuck? You couldnt get away with this crap if it was kelly so why would you just talk shit about the casters instead of talking about the game.

The cast isnt that bad. I dont have my volume up high though

I think idras lost a bit of confidence in his zvp and if he allins again ill be a bit sad. At least there will be another bo5 for idra to show some better games if kiwi wins this.


lol more hate than live reporting.

just macroing and a little pressure by protoss if anyone's interested

this game isn't rocket science. people act like you have to be a pro to have game knowledge.

I'm sure many of us know the ins and outs of multiple sports, but we sure as hell suck ass at them.

their analyzation of zerg strats are off. way off

Ih-dra may sound stupider than Eye-dra, but he based it off some Hindu deity. So it's not like he just randomly created a word and decided "I want it pronounced this way".

LOL

Its Ih-Dra.

I can find the post where he said it himself, "its pronounced idra like how you pronounce imbecile".


I always thought it was idiot not imbecile.

Someone needs to explain to these guys that not everything that happens in the first 15 minutes of a game is a cheese.

Actually "eye-dra" really ISN'T the right way. But the story goes that Artosis didn't know that, so he kept casting the games saying his name wrong, and now he's too stuck in his ways (and there's an element of the comical in his refusal to change), so Artosis just keeps on calling him the wrong name.

Idra's said in interviews that he's pretty much given up on correcting people, so I guess he really doesn't care anymore. Personally I think "eye-dra" sounds cooler :p

edit: Plus it works better with the whole Idralisk nickname ha
For Aiur???

Jokes aside, I find it baffling how many people have trouble fixing the way they pronounce things. It's not at all hard, even if you're gotten used to the wrong way, I've done it with tons of words.

The one where I refuse to change is NonY because in no way, shape, or form does that spell "Noony" and the only two people I hear pronouncing it correctly consistently are Tyler himself, and Chill.

Maybe because Idra did a standard speedling opening into hatch on 21 and he was like OHHHHHH MY GODDD HES GOING ALL IN AGAINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN before he put his hatch down? When it's STANDARD PLAY?


No other caster makes bad calls. EVER.

Wow this thread is fucking awful. I feel sorry for the mods who will have to skim through this garbage.

Idra taking a quick 3rd! This is a good answer to kiwikaki's FE.

Not personally commenting on balance, but I believe a lot of zerg are starting to feel that all-in vs protoss is a better chance then long macro games.


What zerg's are learning is that you can't fight the late game protoss army with a roach based army. They're too supply inefficient and forcefields + aoe tear them apart. Roaches are certainly very good in the mid game particularly if the zerg can overwhelm and most zerg's upgrade them and then get caught in a trap where they're stuck on that tech path.

Mass ling baneling with infestor/muta into fairly fast tier 3 is probably the future of the matchup (similar to what spanishiwa usually does and we've seen Losira try it as well with mixed results). Obviously it's still developing though.
