He just never learned to embrace the idea of micro and how to engage battles being very important components of successful play. He thinks outmacroing his opponent is enough to best everyone, which was true a year and a half ago but nowadays most players have adapted to the different playstyle SCII requires in contrast to BW. If you see players like Stephano and TaeJa, you'll notice that their macro is not even the best in the world, however their engagements, meaning positioning before a battle and microing in the battle is just an art in itself. The better user interface (which means there's less macroing to do) means there's more potential attention left for the actual battles. Other players have caught up on that fact and put FAR more emphasis on engagements, if Idra doesn't begin to care for putting mor emphasis on proper army engagements, he will be left in the dust. I'm not saying that this game was an obvious example for that fact, but rather that that's his underlying problem which keeps him from becoming a better player. Still, his engagements were not THAT bad but he could've gotten more out of his army value. He just wants to ride on his macro-wave straight to the win. Nope, not gonna happen. Not anymore. Not in 2012. Edit: I'm not saying that's his only problem, nor do I say his engagements are generally bad. He tilts pretty hard sometimes and his engagements often are pretty good. Still, to me he seems to have the mindset that as far as he's macroing better, he should win, which simply is false. | ||

Kawaii and IdrA put on a show in that last game and it was fucking good. No need to psycho analyze each player and over analyze their lives.. we are at a stage where good players can beat each other. Nice job by kawaii! gosh you spoilt the game by like 30 seconds >  | ||
