No he didn't. Usual unconstructive bitching from forum threads.


And your comment adds what? I understand you are a community member but if you cannot take criticism in the slightest you aren't doing yourself any favors. Watching the back half of that game was painful from a casting perspective, I'm not sure if you are trying to build some kind of tension when there isn't any but it's relatively annoying to hear when the game is clearly over. Don't be afraid to call it how it is, Idra was trading well and had the superior concave in almost every engagement, I don't see how as a caster you can be so oblivious. Your casting isn't my favorite and your antics aren't either but I respect you as a community member and coming into the LR just to flame someone openly stating what a good majority of people were thinking is a bit daft.

I posted that because people were surprised to see white-ra crumbling in the end.

Why the fuck should I respect a random guy on the forums who thinks he's more qualified with the wonders of hindsight and absolutely no justification of his opinion? Let's be smart by posting our analysis after it happens, with the benefit of hindsight and not explaining a damn thing about why we believe it.

I can take criticism, I am pointing out that the criticism is shit. You think I or anyone else should sit here and thank people for posting dumb things on this forum? If you can't be constructive, then you are of no use. Amusing isn't it, how community members often think to post that I can't take criticism and yet throw up their hands in grave offense whenever I don't treat their comments as pure internet gold. They are the random, unjustified and badly written remarks of a spectator, after the game has finished.

Silly question here but... Do the players hear the casters? O_o


Apparently no. "soundproof" headsets.


Do you guys really think a player like idra, who is confident he can win this whole tournament no "advantage" needed, wouldn't speak up if he felt it was unfair and you could hear the casters?

Like... seriously? And White-Ra "MR. MANNER" "MR. GG!" now all the sudden can hear the casters but doesn't tell anyone to get an edge? Really? Like you guys suggesting this are basically calling the players cheaters... think about it.


Why are you barking at us? The guy asked a question, i answered. We didn't say anything else nor we did question about the set-up they have.

Game 1 was ridiculously one-sided, White-Ra decides to go Forge/Nexus/Cannon vs 12pool and lets in 3 lings which cause havoc in the base.

Game 2 is ridiculously one-sided, White-Ra plays super safe because Idra 12 pools again, so he goes Forge-Gateway-Cannon and Nexus is super late.

Game 3 is very close, and a good one to watch.

What?? How can you do that! I find it ridiculously funny to listen to the wonderful combination of a finish accent and the fact that he on several occasions has to stop his sentence cause he can't find the English words for what he wants to say, while at the same time trying to be as energetic has he can ;D

I can't believe Idra is making this horrible strategy work!? This dude is on fire!!!





As for Idra, he had some really good engagements and he switch shifting his units around. He really didn't have a lot of hydras out for a while, and was almost Roach + Corruptor, which forced 2 rounds of Immortals, then he refilled on almost pure Hydra. While technically Roach-Hydra-Corrupter, it was a really smooth version of it.


This. Thanks for putting it so eloquently. And White Ra definitely won the first engagement when he got his third up. He didn't push fast enough after showing his colossus and that allowed idra to get up his corruptor count. Idra was playing really sharp, White Ra maybe not so much but he definitely had an edge at the beginning of the game. It was cool to see Idra turn it around so quick.

So you can only criticize people if you could do a better job? I guess people aren't allowed to criticize Michael Jordan, etc. then?

The simple fact is: you made a mistake. Someone called you out on it. It's criticism. You don't come back and go "Unusual unconstructive bitching from forum threads."

Metalopolis is favoured TvZ in Korea. http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-korean/maps/441_Metalopolis_1.1

The whole 'cross map imba zerg' thing was so last year, when Terrans could only timing push and not realise that split map with 4th and 5th base sniping was an easy win.

The criticism isn't shit, multiple people in this thread have told you that Idra won those engagements pretty handily.

No wonder Idra thinks you're a shit caster. You have little knowledge and lots of ego.
