It's about whether he ends up on MC's side of the bracket.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

1st seed, so he doesn't play the best player from the other group.
We talkin about PRACTICE

I think it affects their chances later, and if there's any extended play rule in this tournament, then winning these games is definitely important.

I assume that 1st in group plays 2nd in another group so yeah, he could avoid facing MC in the Ro16.

Dear Idra, what do you think of MaNa now?


Why do you care about IdrAs opinion if you obviously hate him so much?



I don't hate Idra, if he was in this I wouls have been rooting for him but I do hate on his players bashing. Yes you can say that its a big part of "what Idra is" but I dont, he is a great player which has some things to work on and his public saying's on players like MaNa are part of them.



youre right about everything but the "idra is a great player" part, no actually he's a terrible player,

The only player Idra ever has to beat is Idra.


Plus a shitload of other pros, but keep your hero worship going.

I actually dislike Idra, but the dude won't ever be consistant unless he fucking gets over himself.


Eh, that may have been the case 6 months ago.

Now he needs to both get over himself and get good enough to beat top players.

he's probably the most overhyped/overrated player in the history of SC2. He won 1 tournament, beating ret, Squirtle, and July (3 very beatable opponents and he lost a game to all of them besides Ret) and then beating a struggling MC 4-3 in his worst matchup. Then suddenly he's heralded as one of the best terrans on the planet.

We've seen this tournament, dropping a round to mana/stephano, and we will see at MLG that he isn't at MvP/Bomber/MMA level.

looks like puma isn't really taking this game seriously, his multi-tasking seems off, his attacks seems half assed

I thought MC showed everyone that no upgrades against T is a suicide move.

That was one tournament.
I was suprised how many people were ready to crown him #1 Terran in the world based on the results of one tournament, helped of course by Artosis's incessant hype.

Only MLG uses extended series. No need to bring that up here...
