and who should replace him? with more skill i guess

Although I disagree with replacing idra, if it were to happen foreign zergs at or above his caliber include... well Sheth, Sen, and morrow unless EU has some god zerg I don't know about

Seems you where living under a rock. Stephano, Nerchio and Dimaga are the 3 premier european zergs atm (you could count ret with them also), with all of them having pretty great results the last 2 months.

Yeah but the thing is none of em can get 20k+ viewers if they put up a stream which idrA can, so even if idrA isn't the best player out there he's still very popular and will probably grant more viewers to the stream

I can't believe this is bo3 all the way and only bo5 for the finals... Why not bo5 for semis and bo7 for finals?

I think the answer is quite simple. They want to do it in 1 day and they don't want it to take >12 hours.

tbh I don't know if I'd consider Nerchio or Stephano on Idra's level yet. Yes at the moment they're playing better but throughout the entirety of SC2 as far as I know Idra has outperformed both of them.

I feel bad about leaving out Dimaga (and Ret to a certain extent)

Stephano is way over IdrA's current level, easily. Nerchio I dunno, he hasnt been as impressive imo. Can't base people on past glory.

Edit: Unless you are the Emperor.

Nerchio has grabbed plenty of impressive victories, just last week he took out ZenexYong in the TL Open, ending the streak of Korean dominance of that tournament, not to mention everyone he beat in IPL2. Nerchio is a monster.

?
Nerchio, Stephano, Dimaga, Darkforce... If it hasn't to be a Zerg there are tons of names...


Well, Idra's recent results just weren't good so I and many others doubt him. Eventually we are wrong, we will see...
I mean the last big thing he won was an MLG (whiteout Koreans, whiteout many EU's, whiteout any significance today) and IPL1 (which wasn't big and NA only)?

Last years was so epic, I'll never forget white ra versus mc where white was ahead 2:= and Mc cheesed in game 5 like its no business


Bo3 and bo 5 finals single elimination + winner takes it all is such a cruel system but certainly creates some epicness.

Im also looking forward to d'apollo&TB, although apollo and demuslim last year was nice, tb has really impressed me over the past couple of months.

No offense to appolo and tb, but I really hoped we'd see day again, oh well tb and apollo worked really well for the sci 3 so I guess it'll be fine.

Other than that the player lineup and the first round matches look really great, can't wait!

This has the same problem NASL had -- 4 guys are going to go over there and perhaps play 2 or 3 games and be done.


Dreamhack treats them like kings while they are there, paying for hotels and takes all the players to dinner and all. So I think the players see it as a vacation to Spain with the chance of winning 100k SEK in a 8player tournament.

I wouldn't say no to that :D
