From Morrow I don't think it would come as a surprise. Why would he race change? He always plays TvZ, switching to ZvZ midway would be stupid. | ||

It's two respected players confident in their skill to wager their own funds, in a series against each other. Sometimes I forget how young this community is on average. I'll bet you X on condition Y is something you do in primary school. Nowhere in professional sports do you see people putting money on the table to challenge someone. Could you imagine Tyson saying to Holyfield: "here's 20k, you and me, mano a mano"? No, right? It's silly. Nor did Jordan challenge Malone to a one on one. It's childish. Which isn't to say that Idra and Naniwa shouldn't play the showmatch nor that I'm not looking forward to it. | ||

Money matches happened all the time in wc3, afaik. Also, just because it doesn't happen in pro sports is not a valid argument that it shouldnt happen in sc2. Personally, i think it's awesome. | ||

Since you feel like this should be tied around sports. Think of this as a skins match, golf. The other points you attempted to make, don't make sense for this discussion. | ||

Obviously showmatches are 1000x easier to organise when it's done online, with only two people involved. | ||

But then: This is a SUBSCRIBER ONLY event. You can only watch if you have a Season 3 HD Pass for NASL Season 3. There will be no free stream. Lulz, que the  , and check up reddit right after the series ends xD Peeps gonna be ragin'. They didn't appreciate his play in content provided for free, so I somehow doubt they'll be enthusiastic for the idea of it being premium xD | ||

 All the casters had a saying in the showmatches of this year, and I voted pretty strong for this one. I love both Idra and MorroW and I think every sc2 fan who has been watching since day 1 will always remember that IEM Gamescom final, maybe for all the wrong reasons, but that was the first international final of a big SC2 tournament we've ever had, and that is something that we will always remember. Just for that simple reason, almost 2 years later, I thought it would be super awesome to have a Idra vs MorroW rematch and the other guys agreed with me. A lot of things have changed at NASL, and of course bringing in new people means bringing in new opinions, I'm super stoked for Sunday, and I have absolute faith that we are going to see a killer bo7 ^^. this tvz makes my protoss heart beats faster, that must mean something :D. Also, can't wait to announce the other upcoming matches, unfortunately we can't announce untill the tickets are booked, but it's looking really good guys. Really good ^^;; | ||

OT: I'm considering buying their pass just for this match, but you never know what kind of IdrA shows up for these type of matches. If it's the one who really wants to win, this will be epic. Edit: If I buy this season pass, do I get access to HD streams for the eventual LAN-finals? You will have acces to the other upcoming 7 Sunday Showdowns, 1080p for every regular broadcast and the offline finals , and other extra's. Ps considiring the fact that you're swedish, I don't think you will regret it looking at our possible line-ups for upcoming weeks!  | ||

 IdrA vs Morrow should be cool. IdrA vs Naniwa (later on perhaps) as well. Looking forward | ||
