We will be moderating harshly in this thread. Think twice before you post. Things we are watching for: image macros, balance whining, "eagles", player bashing etc. We encourage civil and reasoned critique of our moderation - please post it in the website feedback forum.

Please don't complain about MLG stream quality or MLG itself. They work very hard to provide you with an enjoyable service.

Enough with the racism discussions, this is a LR Thread. Cut it out.

Without his attitude in the ZvP Matchup (which i find in favour of Zerg, being a mid-Master Z) he would not have the need to be correct in his judgement and to make everyone else see that "zerg is not supposed to win that matchup"

Man, look at Losira or Morrow. Not only strong ZvP play by them, also very entertaining!


ZvP is Morrow's worst match up. I realise he crushed some ameatur in the open bracket but generally his ZvP stats are pretty bad. I think MC's knocked him out of 3 tournaments.


You didn't see his recent games against Protoss right? He plays a new style lings/balenings/infestor with attack/drop everywhere and he destroyed Naniwa with this style in the WCG qualifier.

I still think that Nani, Idra, Thorzain and Sjow were the only ones that even showed some competition to Koreans, others were just stomped.

Also i am very very impressed by Slush's performance, didnt expect hed be top 16 tbh.

I wish that Nani played MMA and Idra played Losira, i actually think that in those match ups Nani and Idra would have won.

While undoubtably the top 3 koreans were better this weekend, I do think that Idra, Thorzain (vs Protoss at least) and Naniwa could all compete at a level close to them. Bar Losira vs Naniwa (which was just Nani getting totally outplayed), all 3 can compete at very high levels. Just a shame they choked.

I did see it, but one win versus Naniwa doesn't undo months of losing to Protoss. He lost to I think LoveTT 2-0 in the Stars War tournament recently and 2-0 to Kiwikaki in NASL.

Been right what are you talking about ?

Hes keep whining about zerg been underdog when they have dominated all pro scene - winning 3 times the gsl and a world cup and so many more -

Its annoying for any non fanboy to see such excuses for a player who has nothing under his belt - , been a mediocre code s player and his only " achievement " is the king of the beta tournament , -

while other good players such as jinro getting qqing when they not performing well in tournaments

Idra won IGN season 1 and MLG DC as well. I know they're not GSL level wins but his only achievement is not King of the Beta.

Don't forget, he was first foreigner to get into Code S. Also consistently kept getting into Ro16 or higher, usually Ro8 if I'm right. Which is more impressive than Jinro's sprint to Ro4, it shows Idra is much more consistent in high play, never being dropped in code S. Had he stayed in Korea he would easily be mentioned along the names of Nestea and Losira.

Because he saw that he was taking the gold before , ( no way to know he killed his own cc ) and didnt bother checking he is just rebuilding it. ( its like poker , you think its easy observing but playing it with limited information is HARD ) + his premature gg's all the time. Those 2 reasons combined

My bad then sorry about tournament perfomance , but still if he wasnt the most noticeable na player he wouldnt have got all this hype .

Also its pretty obvious that koreans are miles ahead than non ones terms of sc2 both in mechanics - apm and understanding of game

I feel like Thorzane, Naniwa and Idra are the only players who really looked capable of taking out the koreans. Thorzane vs MC was really close, Idra looked solid in his first 2 games vs MC and his first game against MMA. Naniwa looked ok vs losira and mc too imo.


Naniwa vs Losira wasn't close. Losira outplayed him completely, even on Testbug, a map he'd never played before.

Thorzain vs MC was overall 4-2 to MC, Thorzain played well but TvP is his best match by far and it's definitely MC's worst, but MC still won.

Idra was great in the 2-0 but MC had done zero preperation being told only a day before he was going and was probably pretty jag lagged. I don't want to make massive excuses but you can see why MC wasn't 100% in this game, and he later beat Idra 4-0 with a proper days rest and time to adjust to the time zones.


By the same logic IdrA was playing horribly after being so tilted from the MMA series, imagine if all 4 of those games went like the last one MC won, it would have been a completely different series.


Idra played really well on Day 1 in general. On Days 2/3 he lost to Thorzain 2-0, MMA 2-0 and MC 4-0. His only win was versus Slush in ZvZ. I think that says quite a bit for Idra's consistancy as well.

MC has also lost quite a bit. In the GSLTL's he was taken taken out when he needed to win two in a row. Won one, lost the other. At the most recent team league, he lost quite humiliatingly against Polt. Now, the last two GSL's, code S and the super league, out in the first round as well...

I'm an MC fan, but by your arguments, MC is equally inconsistent.

I watched the replay of first Game Idra Vs MMA, and i can't understand, he lost only few drones in his main, he saw that gold base was still building, but he left, wtf was he thinking? He saw all the things but he still left.

Or he might have fallen away like Check/Zenio both of whom performed as well as he did while he was in Korea.
