That's why invites are always a joke in an ever evolving game like SC2 unless, it's no contest choices, like current champions(Nestea/MVP) or EXTREMELY popular players(Boxer). 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.

Nerchio does get invites, but doesn't accept them or doesn't bother to show up. His loss


until a couple of months previous, he was concentrating on school rather than going to lans, which is fair enough. he's since gone to the blizzcon invitational and iem cologne

edit - and the above, rotterdam mentioned that's why he didn't play the new york qualifier this week

Well think of it this way.
If ur a tournament admin, who would u rather invite?
A player with a huge fanbase that used to be supergood and is slumping now, or a player that is still working on proving himself.
Nerchio is better then Idra without a doubt, but he should prove it on LAN first before he gets the reserved/invited spots at tournaments.
So should every player.
Idra gets those invites because he proved himself, if he will keep slumping for much longer tournaments will stop inviting him.

Catz struggling really hard to pronounce aesthetically pleasing

Also disappointed at IdrA, really needs to work on his tilt control/mindset.

from Liquipedia:

Due to his bachelor's exams, Nerchio did not participate in offline events until the summer 2011.

nerchio is also pretty young, i could think his parents aren't very fond of their son traveling alone.

Does ZenexYong actually play for Zenex or just sort of on team? Any significant results before this?

Idra was in a great position to win the game after nerchio's worse opening, but once again he was lazy with scouting

It wasn't a worse opening, it was timing. 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...

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.

Well, IdrA screwed his scouting, and that for the most part lost him the game, but if he would scout it, he'd have to prepare. That means he would sacrifice some drones for more units.
During the attack, Nerchio had his expo hachery half done and the drone count was almost even.
IdrA gave up the aggression and Nerchio could also use his opening defensively.
So no, it wasn't worse opening.

Happily plays through a bracket when he knows he can win, and forfeits when he thinks he might lose. Get a grip Idra.

to be fair his opponent was nerchio and it was a ZvZ....nerchio has a history of being godly at ZvZ idra was probably going to lose the series

Wow nice micro from Attero there, but Yong just had a few too many units because of Attero's expand.

And that last battle showed exactly how much use new patch is gonna be with immortal range

Giving up without trying when you are a professional player on a sponsored team seems logical?I dunno about that.
