Hes realllly on tilt right now. Alives rax placement was fucking amazing though. Do you think if idra has attacked the barracks instead of going into the base, he would have had a better chance? yeah tbh he could of just attacked the rax and kept 1 or 2 at the ramp to block a depot wall and then just get more lings and gg but thats kinda hard to think of off the fly so ~_~ | ||

Alive had his marines down at the nat which were also blocked off from the lings with the rax and a bunker so he couldn't have stopped the cc from landing | ||

No, because then alive would've had time to just wall off his ramp with a second barracks. | ||

It seems the slightly later timing would benefit if you can't stop the barracks from building anyway. funny thing is alive did indeed proxy rax. Just that he proxy rax in a position that would allow him to wall off with a bunker LOL. | ||

It's his decision making, not giving himself a chance to play out the rest of the game. It's pretty sad now since he's been doing this a lot in his recent matches. I just see frustration in his play and, maybe I'm digging to much into it, but a lack of him giving a fuck. Edit: idrA is too talented of a player to have this psychological approach to the game. | ||

He definitly encountered a 6 pool vs this build before, i can´t imagine that was just on the fly. | ||

The fact that he has these weird, funny, raging stories and all this weird luck ingame as you described it around him attracts viewers and thus invites to these tournaments in the first place. I mean... who the hell gets THAT many chances at so many tournaments? (MC maybe?) His terrible luck is actually amazing for his career, at least financially. You missed the joke, champ. The game has some limited luck, but IdrA's "bad luck" is him being a bad player. He is actually one of the luckiest players in the world because he gets invites and a salary based on the fact he gets viewers due to his hype. He has such a huge hype because he was the best BW foreigner at the SC2 release, and everyone always spoke about him. However, based on results, an objective fan can see that he is just now an average foreigner who doesn't gg. Worse than that, he is actively disrespectful of players who are better than him. | ||
