Idra vs MMA @MLG I mean come on man

What happened there?

Idra left while winning a fight after MMA targetted his own CC.

wtf? why?

because Idra.



+ Show Spoiler +
Idra didn't see MMA accidentally kill his 3rd CC with his tanks, Idra does an attack while being dropped in a couple places.
Idra ling bling dies but there are mutas left to clean up MMA's tanks, one drop makes it too Idra's natural and starts killing a few drones.
Idra doesn't know MMA just landed another command centre at the 3rd, thinks its been there for a while and MMA has an economy to reinforce his army while killing Idra's economy with the drop.
In fact Idra's mutas could have cleaned up almost everything MMA had left while the drop was easily clearable up with a few lings.

Idra GGs.

Taeja is the comeback kid. If anyone can come back from a disadvantageous position in such a match it's Taeja. A game is not over until one player leaves or the last buildings are destroyed. So a re-game is the right decision in my opinion.


I think you missed the sarcasm

It's so sad to see IPL going from IPL 3, which was probably the best tournament of its time to this.

the only clueless seems to be you ... not saying taeja was winning, but anything more than a small lead to Nestea is bullshit

Nestea looked like he was ready to chop the screen in half, had he been ten years younger, which prompts me to think he def had a lead

Nestea didn't have had all the information. He couldn't see what Taeja had. Nestea or Taeja would be the worst people to ask who had the advantage.

I think the best case scenario for Liquid would be Taeja losing here, then Hero finishing off IM. While Koreans are used to playing tens of games consecutively, having to play game after must take its tole on Taeja. If he lost, then Hero gave him a rest, he'd come back in the next BO5 strong!

Not a matter of fanboyism. Nestea was in a bad position that game.

Not really. LAN + starcraft being an incredibly well made game meant it was pretty rare.

You're blowing my mind, are you the real SeeKer?

Lol. What does that mean?

And no, I'm not SeeKer, I'm SeeKeR

He's clearly having a ReKeeS moment since he claims to be this huge MMA fan

Nestea trie to mindgame the thing by going 3 hatch before pool expecting taeja to not do a 2rax again
But TaeJa is going 4 OC build so its pretty even

Probably. I'm up since 4am (it's 10pm in Europe now) and working the whole day.
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

Not sure it's a smart choice by Taeja to repeat his response to Losira's build, seeing as that's probably what Nestea is banking on in the first place.

It really depends. If Taeja thought he was going to lose and got the regame he's probably in a fineish mind set. If Nestea thought he had the game in the bag he's probably tilted/bad mind set and would favor taeja.

But it can also be reversed or both of them could be tilted lol. No idea what taeja thought but it looked to me like nestea thought he was in a great position.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Who exactly was ahead is a bit hard to tell, unless you have a photographic memory and know the exact details of the last situation, but it's pretty goddamn clear that this game should never be a given win/loss for anyone. None was even remotely "far" ahead.
