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.

퇴장하는 IdrA에게 왜 나갔냐고 물어봤는데... "문성원은 황금 멀티도 있고(?) 앞마당 드론 다 털려서 내가 진 거다" 라고 판단... 차마 문성원 황금멀티 없어...지가 터트렸어..라고 말하지 못했다

translator pls



Asked Idra why he gg'd and he said "MMA had the gold base(?) while my front yard was killed off" (by drops I assume?). then Mr. Chae said he couldn't tell idra that MMA accidently destroyed his own gold base CC (probably cause of the look of idra's face)


i would tell idra striaght up what happened. i want idra to win, but i hope he bombs out rest of the MLG and finally realizes that he leaves way too early.

Idra finally punished for his ridiculous "my opponent will never make a mistake" mindset.

can someone explain the "holy check"?



Slayers_Cella, the coach of Slayers, is a popular streamer here on TL. 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 think its used as Holy Shit is but yea its a reference to CheckPrime


No it isn't. SlayerSCella famously said holy check on his stream when someone donated $200 to his paypal account. He meant to say holy shit, but it came out as holy check either because of the accent or because that's really what he thought you are supposed to say.

Since, it's become a staple rallying cry of the Slayers team and their fans, especially in the english speaking community.
In order to move forward, we must rid ourselves of that which holds us back. Check out my stream and give me tips! twitch.tv/intotheskyy

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


All the time is an exaggeration indeed, most of the time he doesn't even gg

idra thought the drop did way more damage then it did. It only killed 5 drones tops but he didnt see that since he send all his drones to gas, where they clumped up, making it look like everything was dead. But he should have thought about the fact that even with the gold MMA only had 1 base,
idra 2-3

Many viewers make the mistake that players can see everything we do.
IDRA DOES NOT HAVE OBS VIEW
- He does not know MMA killed his own OC
- He did not actively scout for a 3rd
- He realised that MMA army was > than 2 base economy
- He assumed incorrectly that MMA push was not a desperate all-in from that OC cancel, but a calculated decision.
- Idra assumed incorrectly that MMA was making a 4th base AND has enough scvs to transfer over
- Based on this and MMA's very successful drop, Idra has 0% chance of a comeback assuming his assumptions are correct.

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.


If MMA was indeed making his 4th, MMA would have to quote Tastosis from the Major-Tyler series, "make a dozen different errors to give the game away." and has "absolutely no chance at all". Idra assumed that a player of MMA's caliber wouldn't be making a 3rd that late.

In 99.9% of situations, Idra's call was the right one, and he would be saving the viewers time. Unfortantely, there is the always the 0.1% chance of a freak accident. To be honest, I rather more players gg like Idra then be like Tyler, dragging the game like a dead horse for 15 mins hoping for some freak miracle.


That is just some blatant bias. You really want people to prematurely GG more often? So well see more games where someone more or less gives away a free win? Your percentages are just fiction and from you whole posts it smells of Idra defense.

I feel the Idra incident overshadowed the fact that MMA killed his own CC. Anyone have any REASONABLE explanation to that whatsoever?


Yes he was meaning to destroy the rocks blocking the minerals, but just as he pressed ctrl-a his medivac at bottom right got spotted by IdrA so he simply let his tanks shoot the CC (that he thought was rocks blocking minerals) and while microing medivac he didnt get back in time to stop tanks.

Only explanation needed.
