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.

Idra had seen the third being built at the gold with his mutas.... He can put 2 and 2 together. Nah, that doesn't even matter. You don't quit when you think you can't win if the other guy plays perfectly. You quit when you think you can't win even if the other guy screws up. Until then, you keep playing, because hey, maybe the other guy will screw up, and then you can win. Idra seems to always assume that his opponent is in the best possible position, given his information. That's not a bad approach when deciding how to develop your build within the game, but it's a terrible approach when deciding whether to leave the game. Also, Idra seems to really like to find reasons that he can't win. But maybe that's just a side effect of his always assuming that his opponent is in great shape. | ||

Yeah this is all true, but that doesn't justify him preemptively leaving... Any other zerg in the world would have stayed and played it out, don't defend his actions. And then you have people like Tyler, who doesn't GG after his allin has failed and he knows he's down a base and supply (of which his opponent has double) Not everyone wants to be hated for having Fantasy GG timing. Because clearly Idra cares about what people think of him trollface.jpg | ||
