You guys are all missing the point. He is giving his sponsors less exposure. It has nothing to do with the seeding.

Good for Idra forfeiting when fans stay up and and pay to watch his games. I ask this simple question. Who the hell else would forfeit games that could potentially help them because they are "tired"? Think White-ra would do it? Sheth? Boxer? MVP? Nestea? Yeah didn't think so.

Spoiled kid. He'll lose the first game tomorrow even while rested and nothing will have changed.

The groups are just for seeding. He opted to take the 4th seed in his group by forfeiting the matches.

I don't see it as IdrA's fault he's taking 4th, it's more like Comcast's fault; his games could have been done by now if there hadn't been an extraordinarily long delay today.

After how far his matches got delayed if he has to be up anytime earlier tomorrow I couldn't blame him for dropping out and taking the last seed in his pool

BTW, aren't these games just for show. They really don't mean all that much (the seeding is sort of irrelevant with the open being so good).

Group winner gets better seed and $1k cash prize so they do mean something(runner up gets $500)


yeah i dont get why people say seeding isnt important. if you lose too much you have to play much more games to get to the finals. isnt it just like MLG?


This isn't MLG. . . The championship bracket is just a standard 32-man tournament, not the clusterfuck format MLG is.

Idra dropping out now is not fair for White-ra because White-ra has to play three games tonight while the other two player only need to play two.

Luckily this pool play is not going to eliminate anyone.

That's a point actually, this is unfair on the players as so many of them are really tired due to these tech delays =/
Not to mention, they seem to me disregarding the players alot. I mean, give them some peace.. =/

Whitera was 80 to 170 supply in game one. And he didnt quit. And you know what? He kicked ass. Idra will never ever succeed against a competent player with that attitude. Hes a mediocre pro anyway and with that attitude hes in the lower quarter of pros. Haha, still laughing.


Wait what? WhiteRa lost game 1...

What an assss move by Idra to jump out of group play giving free wins to everyone except WhiteRa, who had to exhaust some of his immense powers to destroy the puny zerg.


Keep in mind that his matches should have been played many hours ago and he had to stay awake to wait for all this internet crap to get fixed so he could finally try to play. Everything got pushed back, and it wasn't his fault. If the games had been played at the assigned times, then he would have played. They weren't. Relax.

No group play is just for seeding and an additional prize pool of 1000 (1st) and 500$ (2nd) hes still in the championship tournament since all 4 are already qualified.

But yea hes backing out of group play.

you mean the game he lost? hard? Game 2 he was behind yes, but not near that much, and he had teched up while idra was almost fully maxed on roaches and hadn't droned up. Possibly expecting an early all in like in game 1. a 150/200 protoss with collosi can beat a 200/200 roach zerg easy as can be.

ipl fucked over IdrA completely... imagine ur thinking ur going to play at 5PM and schedule ur sleep for that etc. and then uend up playing at 9:00 PM

he was scheduled to play the last game of the night

if he really didnt want to play he could just 6pool or something seriously

Cause 6 pooling and staying awake for a few more hours is better than withdrawing and going to sleep?

Jet lag is brutal. If you have never experienced it, it can take several days to get back to normal. SC2 is a game of focus.

Somehow the Koreans manage.

Lol, do HD and Pain not understand that Idra was dead.


Do you not understand he wasn't ?


I don't mean to be rude, but you believe Idra wasn't absolutely dead, you do not understand PvZ.

1) Idra starving. Mined out main, and nat and third nearly out.

2) No gas.

3) Broodlords dead. Impossible to remake (no gas). With broodlords dead, colli, stalker, archon, mothership (will be rebuilt) comp crush roach infestor.

4) Whitera 2 fresh bases (4 and 5).



I think you are the one who doesn't understand.

1) White-ra's attack didn't trade cost efficiently enough, and was behind in supply when Idra left

2) White-ra wouldn't have enough gas to get that super ball again

3) Mothership dead, along with few colossus, hard to remake

4) Idra had enough minerals to start fresh bases of his own


He did trade efficiently enough for his economic advantage to take the game.

Whitera has significantly more gas than idra, and idra had NO gas and was a base down.

idra had no power units left period and whitera had archons which wreck roaches.

idra had already made 2 more bases but he could reach them because whitera had complete map control with his superior army.

Any other "valid" points?
