The following is a list of behaviors that will get immediate bans:

1. Whining about stream
2. Bashing other games
3. Flaming other users
4. Bashing players
5. Complaining about imbalance

Basically just be respectful. Aside from that, enjoy the games, make sure you bring an umbrella and have some delicious waffles! (#)

how do you even stop that three bunker, 2 rax push?

that early spine can't finish in time, and blocking off the bunkers being made with drones only, seems fairly costly...

Don't hatch first, fake hatch first into ling bane all in, play July style... lots of ways.

Idra going back to korea is probably good for him.

This is just getting silly and way out of hand. What are they doing inside that house anyway?


Yeah because practice time always means results? It doesn't, sometimes you play bad, sometimes you are jet lagged, sometimes your mindset is off. How does one set actually prove anything about a player overall. It doesn't.

Arizona house hasn't even been up long enough to start producing results...I can say the same thing for Naniwa, he hasn't been in Korea long enough for his play-style to balance out and for him to feel good in the position he is in.

Everyone in this thread has to step back and just realize that it isn't as simple as person A beats person B in a Bo3 so Person A is so much better and the other person is trash. Any given Sunday, (Saturday actually).

Only it isn't just this tourney, IdrA has consistently been outclassed by other foreign zergs in tourneys for the past several months.

yeah...but not one can possibly deny that Idra's skills have deteriorated considerably since leaving Korea. He was strong as soon as he came back and has gotten worse and worse. Now, I don't think many people would have him in the top 10 of foreigners at this point.

The game was over, an unwinnable situation, Idra typed gg. Everyone is as usual overreacting to nothing.


Maybe because people saw Sheth beat Select when he was in the same position as Idra was in?

http://www.teamliquidpro.com/news/2011/08/15/sheth-2nd-at-na-invitational?p=1

Yep. There's the interview after Sheth played that series. Question 4 is the most telling. Sheth just has a great mindset for this game. He hadn't even played that style of rush but stayed in to win that game. Very admirable.

How come both streams have the same thing on them? Or is the Teevox stream playing 2 blue streams?


Standard MLG. On day 2 the casters need to take breaks so they alternate casting. Otherwise you would have 2 casters, and then no casters.

well, I guess I can kinda see some logic behind Idra's play in game 2:

If you want to play an all-in doing so while you are in the lead is probably a good idea - if you fail you still won't lose the series solely due to that cheese/all-in going wrong (which would be very frustrating and look stupid) and if you succeed you manage to close the series in a very efficient way.

After his push failed the 2nd game was probably lost for Idra - his gg timing is just a reflection of his expectation for Noblesse making some horrible mistake vs his fear of killing whatever was left of the momentum from his victory by getting too invested into a lost game.

still sucks for us spectators :/

Interesting Fact, Haypro actually took a game off Bomber the last time they played.

I remember that game, on XNC, it was entertaining

Just because u lose all the time to idra doesnt make him the best foreign zerg, TT1.
Its not one or two BO3 he lost, its months of losing to plenty of foreigners out there that made him lose this title


dude i didnt say best foreign zerg, learn to read i was arguing for him being ONE of the best foreign zergs

I'm sorry, i must have misread it then.

I gotta admit, i play T, but i am getting really sick of bunker rushes. They are too strong in the right hands, put 1 step out of place and the Z is done. Its also just annoying because its not like Z can do any sort of rush like that.

I dont really enjoy TvZ any more just because of the constant T bunker crap.


So game 3 ends with Idra doing a mistake and losing to bunkers. Game 1 ends with Noblesse doing a mistake and getting fungalled. Both games "ended" with one step out of place. These things happen. It's not too strong it's just right. If everything was toothless there would be zero point in watching or playing this game.


No people just don't see a point in watching a game that ends in 3 minutes. Making a mistake 40 minutes into the game and one 4 minutes into it are totally different.


So no rush 20?
