Idra don't deserve a tenth of the attention and the money he gets. He's the epitome of mediocrity. | ||

But he was way clever than that, he realized that Idra's lings were following, so he changed direction and got all the lings at the ramp. It was a really smart move. Idra don't deserve a tenth of the attention and the money he gets. He's the epitome of mediocrity. Yeah that was very good. Idra was expecting him to go for the drones too, it looked like. | ||

Nerchio got his speed and banes about 15-30 sec before IdrA and he used that opportunity perfectly. Idra scouted badly and didn't prepare at all... | ||

EG with all their videos, interviews and shit makes idra look like the best zerg out there with all that coverage. it kinda sux really when idra isnt even top5 non-kor zerg and gets invites to events only because he is more famous than nerchio. skill doesnt matter it seems  | ||

Yes it was a worse opening because if he had bothered to move the OL and gotten a slightly earlier baneling nest + queens in position, nerchio would have been way behind. Of course this happens in zvz all the time, but nerchio didn't do anything particularly impressive to win the game; idra lost it. | ||

While Idra will guarantee eyeballs to w/e event he gets invited to, if you're event is big enough and has other big names, you don't need to invite him. He's not even the best NA zerg anymore. Basically the invites he gets at this point are just trying to guarantee drama. | ||

I've seen so many games where the guy who goes hatch first falls behind in drone count in the first few minutes because he has no map control and has to play very safe, that I really question whether it really gives an advantage. | ||
