Zerglings were cracklings with 3/0*
Cracklings are carapace-upgraded zerglings. These were adrenalings.

No.
Anyways, that last game is what everyone should expect from IdrA. Impressive, dominant play and in control of the game from the very beginning.
You need the carapace upgrade anyway for the Roach switch. You can't stay on lings against Archon/Templar. Destiny ZvP 101
Uh... that's got nothing to do with what he said. Cracklings are from the adrenaline gland upgrade. There is no name for zerglings with armor.
I fail to see how you fail to see the genius in calling carapace-upgraded lings cracklings and adrenaline-gland upgraded lings adrenalings. Especially given how you have no name for carapace-upgraded lings. D:
Because carapace upgraded lings don't serve any particular purpose, besides dying less easily.
Cracklings are cracklings cause once they get adrenaline, they get down.
hehe seeing idras games recently i think he needs a lil lategame training heh. I like the irony though, he became what he hated the most, people that can only win early/mid game xD. Nevertheless he plays so clever now early mid, really inspirational.

80 food to 20 is hardly premature, esp with idras army being intact and easily enough to deal with the tanks and 10 marines.
That's where I think he overestimated Idra. It wasn't going to be that easy to take out that terran army, and meanwhile Terran could land and continue mining. Sure he was very behind, but he had his buildings still.

Sure, it's "funny", and we can laugh like pigs that how bad mannered he is, and how "cool" is that, but really... If he won't get any punishment I'll be a really sad panda. Argue about balance if he wants, but calling someone retard just because he beat you...LOL....
Well what is Lovedrop to do during the game? Pause and talk to IdrA in a stern voice? I don't mind this, IdrA being IdrA is nice entertainment, especially when desrow plays toss maximum trolling style
Well, he could've been DQ'd after that game, or/and banned. Yeah, it sounds serious I know, but I thought TeamLiquid is hosting a professional StarCraft 2 tournament. And no, professional doesn't stand for the gaming quality of the players, but of the tournament.
I think they first would need a rule in place that states disrespectful comments or insults are not permitted. If they already have this rule then I think they should disqualify him, if they don't have this rule, then they should make it, but I don't think it would be right to d/q Idra in that case.
Yes, I have to agree with this one, but sadly, I have a feeling that NOTHING will happen. It will be labeled as "ooohhh, it's just Idra, you know hooow it is".
Im glad people with your attitude rarely get to host a successful tournament.
Perfectionists, you mean? Yeah, must be hard for you to watch tournaments, where players cant spit each other. Ohh...
Why dont we have robots playing each other? Would be fun to watch, wouldnt it?
Yes Idra well done that what we want to see!!! Winning ZvT on Xel Naga is quite difficult!
Did you hear me say players should be manner all the time? No, taunt each other, or even do what Idra usually does, bashing the balance. BUT calling others retards and such in a tournament, now thats a different story. I don't want to see princesses fighting, but neither do I want to watch a prehistoric man on the stream. /He can do whatever he wants on his stream/

Especially given how you have no name for carapace-upgraded lings. D:
Well done!
