It probably was just a moment thing (maybe Idra was going 1-1 2-2 3-3 etc. to look at various places, that doesn't count as Actions per the new rule anymore). Well if you are talking about a real time apm then who cares. I am quite sure his average was higher than 100 for sure. | ||

It did actually show elfi with approximately 110 APM to Idra's 30 or so. | ||

I kinda liked elfi's PvZ as well, cuz I was looking forward to see IdrA's PvZ, cuz he complained kinda a lot after the patch. I think the 2-Stargate-build by Elfi was insanely good and I actually hoped he wouldn't make any VR's, just phoenix', cuz VR's are pretty much an all-in investment and need to at least deny a third, but Phoenix are a very good harrassment-tool and if you mass them, they totally rip apart Hydras, Mutas etc. What I didn't like by elfi was, that he didn't (ab)use the Immortal (from mid to lategame), nor the Prism (in the Lategame). I really think those two Units are very powerful now and I wanted to see them being used in a high-level game. I also didn't like Elfi's timing-attacks, cuz even though it may get IdrA to tilt, when he's playing on his highest level (which he definitely was in this IEM), he will simply crush the timing and then outmacro you soooo hard. I also noticed that IdrA, when he's on top of his game, is extremely good at multi-pronged harrass with Drops, Nydus etc. and when he's kinda in a rut, he totally neglects those options and focuses too much on winning with standard-play and macro, although utilizing drops and Nydus can perfectly be implemented in your standard gameplan. | ||

Other than that, exactly like MJ. Idra is more like Shaq, a strong player with a bad attitude and a massive fanbase (myself included) who is able to stay relevant and highly paid whether he delivers results or not. ![]() | ||
