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.

If I was not mistaken, IdrA saw his early 3rd CC, right?
Then he saw MMA building another CC at the gold, which he assumed to be his 4th.
He didn't defend the drop properly, probably hoping to clean-sweep the entire MMA army, so technically it puts IdrA one base down.
His clean-sweep happened, but MMA still had a good number of tanks and a few surviving marines.
Could IdrA had assumed that there was no way he could beat a 4-base turtling Terran?
I don't know. It was way too premature no matter how it seemed.
He still quit early and it's stupid. It's especially stupid when he has 4 bases, an army advantage (those mutas were tearing things up) and can do some serious damage with it.
The fact is quitters don't win and he needs to be more resilient to actually play to his full potential.

MLG fails not showing us MC vs Thorzain. When have the two set of casters actually broadcasted a game simultaneously? What is the point of bringing in so many casters if you aren't going to use both streams.

Brackets are empty for me on the MLG website for some reason, anyone else seeing this?

Actually couldn't this work out in Idra's favor because of the extended series format? If he faces MC he has a 'unfair' advantage because of the extended format. Could this actually have worked out the best for Idra?
Not really. If he won that he would have gone up against losira followed by the loser's bracket finalist. Now even if he makes it to the finals he either be up against losira anyway or mma again in an extended series.

Mr.Chae GomTV Caster
I asked IdrA when he was exiting from the booth. He said, "MMA had Golden Mineral(?) and I lost my drones in natural so I thought I lost.. I could not dare tell him... that MMA destroyed his own gold CC...
I translated it arleady.

That's why you go and scout to confirm your assumptions before you GG. I mean if you're planning to GG anyways, whats there to lose in scouting one last time before you gg?

[half-serious]
Now (if it's not already too late), EG staff should keep IdrA away from any computer and crowd until his next match, not allowing him to realize his mistake. Otherwise he may just tilt over and over.
And his next opponent should cheese him in and out, betting on an early rage quit.

One of his catch phrases is Holy Check, in reference to CheckPrime, another Korean Zerg player who was crushing heads in the Beta. MMA got the phrase from Cella and is talking to his foreigner fans.
Is it really a reference to CheckPrime I thought it was meant to substitute Holy Shit.

I dont think that IdrA, as one of the best players in the world. Who is 8-1 in this tournament. Lacks game sense that much to not know when he has won the game. Even I know when I am ahead by that much. When I have more mutas than my opponent has marines. Starcraft is his full time job, he plays 12 hours a day +, every single day.
There is no way in hell, in my humble opinion that it happened just by chance or by human error.
I, as a huge fan of Starcraft 2, really sincerely hope, that it was Human Error and that there are no other reasons for IdrA seemingly giving that game away. As well as G2.
Because the other only possibel reason except for the one that I outlined, is indeed a very scary one that I do not even want to mention. But I am sure that others have already thought of it.
*EDIT*: Pardon the punctuation, this is copy/pasted for the most part from a Skype chat conversation as it was happening. lol, i guess you haven't watched idra enough then he prematurely ggs all the time
All the time, might be an exaggeration, but awfully a lot. ;o

I asked Idra after the game, and he said " MMA had an expansion at gold and my drones got harrassed at expansion" I couldnt say that MMA destroyed his own OC....
