IdrA knows his results are crapping out and will join you in Kr soon hopefully. Hope you both can get back in Code S =>

Hopefully you manage to get out of the group

Wow I really like Streloks build.... reactor helion, switch to barracks, drop ship, CC, viking, then raven. Safe against almost all openings.
Copying this for sure.

Good job Jinro. Study your opponents and abuse all weakness is a full part of a Pro !
sorry for bad english :x

mmm...i feel like strelok is about to roll that guy...

Idra needs to watch DRG games. I've seen all of DRG's televised games and I've never seen him lose to a 2 rax bunker push or at least I can't remember a game he has. He may lose the hatch sometimes, but he'll never gg right there and he ends up winning the game.
One of the games I watched was IdrA vs Morrow, where morrow kills the hatchery but idra stays in the game and makes it a very close 30 minute game....
So I wasnt really expecting to win. I would guess what made IdrA stay vs morrow and not vs me is that 1) He got his spines into position so he could at least retake his nat....
2) He might not have made gas as early, because he knew it was a 2 rax faster than he did vs me.

At the ramp down from the nat. 3 bunkers create a full wall off

Yeah, 2rax wins a ton of GSL TvZ as well 
Or at least kills players naturals (like leenock 100% of the time) and they lose from a 2base follow up xD

Yeesh. Hope that guy was just extremely nervous. Haven't seen play that poor in months.

After seeing that game all I can say is...
no way, just no.
|
Someone that doesn't feel 'comfortable' playing long games against good players like IdrA and instead need to trust some 'cheese' build + hardcore timing attacks will most likely not go really far in a big tournament.
That's only my opinion however.
