I can't wait for him to go to korea I can. I don't want to watch him lose all the time again. >.< I like to see IdrA win, just ... not when he's facing BoxeR. ^^ True, If Idra goes to Korea, he will lose all the time again. Lose all the time again?? He was in Code S and made ro8 before he left lol That doesn't mean he didn't lose rather painfully all the time. I was quite happy when he did get far in the tournament, but most of the time it would get to the second round and then he would get absolutely destroyed and be rather disappointing. I'd like to see him do really well, but I honestly don't think he can at this point. Maybe he'll get in GSL and prove me wrong though, and I hope he does. Sigh, people check the stats of all players during the open seasons and then after that IdrA played in and tell me he "Lost all the time"
To avoid a debate about the definition of an expression like "all the time." I'll just put it this way: IdrA's performance, as a fan of Zerg players in general, was extremely disappointing in the early GSLs. I'm not bashing the guy. Maybe he'll do better this time if/when he is in GSL again, but it's only gotten harder. Especially since Code S at the moment has a lot of very aggressive Terrans, which is something IdrA doesn't deal with all that well. More passive Terrans he absolutely dominates, extremely aggressive Terrans not so much.

Short summary Game 1: MKP goes for his standard hellion drop into 1/1/1 push. MC tries his new stargate, twilight council build but loses. MKP takes game 1. Game 2: 1 gate expo from MC. MKP goes for 3 rax into hidden gold expo. MC defends well, is ahead and counters but MKP survives due to good micro. Pretty back and forth game, with MC maintaining a slight economic and upgrade lead. MC finally prevails and takes game 2. Game 3: 1 rax expo vs 1 gate expo. MKP goes for his 2 base ghost timing. MC scouts it with an early robo, gets 2 immortals out in time. Perfect spreading and forcefields crush the push. MKP dies in the counterattack. MC WINS! Thanks gogo MC <3.

DRG is highly overrated. A fantastic player, to be sure, but overrated. He and Idra are actually probably fairly close in skill level. Both players are in the second tier of top zerg players after Nestea, Losira and Coca. DRG is on the same level as Nestea imo. Coca is the overrated zerg :> Coca beat mkp 2-0, DRG loses 4-1. Coca and DRG are both amazing zergs, though.

July also lost to HongUn, if that means anything.

Coca is top tier? Based on what?
Losira has been slipping as of late as well, I'm on the fence with him.
DRG was almost a one-man team in the gstl, won IEM new york, and won DH valencia. I would consider him a top zerg.

Seems like people complain about the premium service everytime.... Just don't get it in the future and MLG will be forced to provide a better service Or you could support them by actually getting it? Amazing how cheap people are. great logic premium holders complain about their product=more ppl should buy it? wha? What's there to complain about? They have shown basically every interesting match the whole weekend. I've had the quad view on a 60" screen and this has by far been my best viewer experience ever of a tournament with this many players involved. You're doing a fantastic job. There should be like a live blog on TL where LR would flow. I've payed for MLG streams all the way to Orlando. The beta streams are a new feature. My criticism isn't about MLG or their offering. What I do criticize is how they position their value. If they exist to promote esports and to make sure that all the fans that enjoy the game can participate, then the free service could do with some improvements. You can still have premium but the quality of the service says exactly this "money first, you guys later". Well, it is an american company after all. But still the small amount I have had to pay for all this entertainment(sure they had problems in the start but that happens to everyone) is not really an indicator of how they have their prios wrong.
I would say that a good change could be to make HQ on red/blue free and keep stream 3 and 4 premium content.

Disgustingly badly. Be wise not to read too much into things.
