Well, he placed 3rd of the WCS NA, and that's his best result in a long long long long time, and I wasnt expecting more than a top 3 WCS finish at all, but maybe it was my expectations that were too low :p

Slightly offtopic:

Has it been discussed in the elephant thread about Idra and the foreigners? In theory, Idra should be decisively dominating the foreign scene, based on his BW relative accomplishments and korean training. But this doesn't exactly happen - he's a good foreigner, not dominant. How does that fit with the elephant theory's assumptions for bw->sc2 transitions?

No, he wasnt in a position to make a comeback, at all.

He definitely was, you just have to be greedy for a minute or two when the other person makes roaches but still doesn't attack and you'll be back up to his drone count


The other person then is up X supply, which is used to usually pressure, but in this case, kills the other person.

vibe throwing the dice hard and coming up with a BO win.

Sad that Idras incredible hold wasn't rewarded, but you simply cannot win against speedlings with a smaller amount of slow lings.

u almost make it sound like vibe didnt deserve to win

Risks are part of SC2, but in a best of 5, I bet idra could have pulled it out. Best of threes are pretty rough.

It was the last game in the tournament which now knocked him out, I would have understood it if it was game 1 but not 3

I'm pretty sure you don't play zerg. Vibe would have had to have gotten up and done a victory lap around IdrAs booth for the game to ever equalize again at that point

Vibe had killed ~20 drones you just can't come back from that. Idra knew he was dead and playing it our for another 5 minutes until Vibe actually killed him would have been a waste of time.

Idra lost 20 drones. Didn't have speed or banes. Only one queen.

Trust me it's better than Idra dragging it out painfully.

Drones lost count means nothing when it happens while being a base ahead which it did. Sure he was way far behind but he could definitely have pulled a comeback from a situation like that and his speed was pretty much finished

mrbitter went a little too crazy for idra's hold, he still lost enough drones and Vibe was masterful from the position he'd put him in, really nice ling speedling micro

Well on that particular hold he went crazy about, he only lost 1 drone. Which is pretty impressive.

Really Idra? Thought you came further than that, but maybe you're still your own self. Seriously, get an attitude and play a proper game instead of this.

He was even farther behind than game 2 and you saw how that turned out. The gg timing was perfectly fine


Good luck in the finals!

It isn't MLG until EG and liquid are screwed by the brackets.


Except this is a case of Idra screwing himself by playing in two tournaments simultaneously. Though I guess he's already qualified for Shanghai so it doesnt matter too much to him that he lost to Vibe.

And does this mean we can say Idra is 3rd best in NA now?

I still cannot honestly believe they make IdrA play straight after this game, either delay the WCS or have him play later in MLG, we all know how getting eliminated from a tournament feels.

It was a BO win. get over it.
He did his best, and no shame in 3rd place considering how he was in a slump.

None of you can do better. Silence.

IdrA did a giant mistake by running across the map with his slowlings. If you're opponent already opens with Banelings and thus has gas, you should never send out your lings if you havent even started mining gas. you'll just loose all of them to speedlings for almost nothing. such a crucial mistake...
