Idra thought he had won and didn't tech to broodlords and didn't get any more bases.

Got those hydras and wanted to get aggressive, but he should've known that moving off of creep elfi's army was still too strong to try. Should've just gone into brood lords.

Such a shame, he had that game in his hand.

That is a loss due to his attitude towards this game.

Hmmm I don't know why idra's hive was so late AND he reinforced with 30 hydra's was a bad move and no corruptors for the obvious colossi being remade xD.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Treehugger:
What distinguishes Protoss players of Elfi's style is their contradictory willingness to play both long defensive games, and aggressive timing games. IdrA's ZvP vulnerability has long been against the former.


Sup?

hahaha , yea you called it man. Your knowledge of the players and the current state of the game is impressive to say the least. I especially liked your article about the current state of protoss and MC.

Why did he stop producing corruptors =/ those 2 colossi did so much dmg =/


Because he killed all of the collosus and didnt see that colossi had been rebuilt until too late.

I guess he assumed protoss wouldn't be able to last a long game off 3 base. with 1 actual mining base vs his 5 base ( 2mining )

yeah he obv didn't expect him to remake collos after clearing all them, he might of expected a immortal switch
otherwise he wouldn't have made 20+ hydras right after that

Viewers have been really low for this event ,. its quite surprising as IEM's are alwways some of my favourite events. Only at 2k right now.

Anyone notice starcraft viewership dropping in general recently?

Look at how many events are going on right now.

Yea true, i remember when events would easily have 20-30k on the first 2 days though and then usually around 50k or more for the finals. Even between the 3 main events going on right now , Redbull Lan day2 IEM and NASL its only about 12k , and most likely the people watching Redbull lan right now arent starcraft fans (or a majority of them arent) because its halo going on right now and Redbull has the most viewers out of all of them.

Yeah, I guess I can vouch for that. I know NASL gets 8-11K average and it seems like IPL gets 7K but you also have to remember that there are rebroadcasts for Europe and those get 4 to 6k viewers. However, now that I think about it, I would guess that total viewership as gone down becasue there are so many events and they kind of drown out each other.

Hey guys, who is Elfi? Never heard of this player. Sounds like Elky. Any relation?

This statement makes me sad.
Elfi plays in a tournament nearly every day.

Just sad. Idra just hasn't improved for the last few months, I mean why bother improving when you have a rabid fanbase that just throws advertising money at you no matter how good you are.
