Yeah IdrA haters just cant accept that he is back.
Stephano threw down massive amounts of infested terrans - tried runbys burrowed infestors to kill idras middle base
It was so close - no way it was matchfixing



He's back...



Until he runs into the brick wall that is Protoss and Sentry, Immortal allins.

Battle of the fanboys...

I can kind of understand why they would accuse him of it though, it's definitely not the first time that Stephano has done it. (Anyone remember Stephano vs Brat_OK? hehe xD)

So many people desperate to hate idra.

He just stomped two great zergs with phenomenal play.

Give respect where it is due

Agreed. This was not some kind of "Stephano move-commands 10 Infestors and GGs" series, this was a "Idra methodically edges out advantages and defeats Stephano in a battle of ultimate skill" series. Fantastic show by Idra, and I can't wait to see his further games in this tournament of reversals.

Your argument makes no sense, that would be very obvious and fuel the paranoias of conspiracy theorists.


Yeah, and it would lead to him potentially getting caught if he made it obvious. It's not difficult to simply play worse later in the game...

DISCLAIMER: I am once again not saying that I think Stephano threw it, but people are using such flawed logic to make it seem like it somehow isn't a possibility.

We need to get some mod action up in this thread, people here are full idiots.

Complain about Stephano making to many Hydras? Literally like 10 people moaning about it for the end of that game. HIS ROACH WARREN WAS SNIPED JESUS PAY ATTENTION.

Complain about 60 apm when Stephano was on 3 base and waiting for army? He was always 250+ in engagements.

Nobody 'threw' this game. Idra turned full beast mode today. It's not like this was his only shock win.

And it's not even the most shocking win so far *cough* babyknight *cough*. Just grow up.
I only know my mind, I am mine.

Nice graft by Stephano by letting IdrA win. What a fail from Blizzard... it was obv that Stephano would let IdrA win to have 2 EG players in the Ro16.


There is no way to know for sure. How in the hell can you say it is "obvious"?

You're right to blame blizzard and acknowledge it is a possiblity that games could be thrown, but IdrA beat RorO and Stephano isn't that great at ZvZ. IdrA beating Stephano isn't unheard of... so please don't act like you KNOW he threw it.


I actually laughted at "you are right to blame Blizzard". Well played lol.

Ugh... this is just frustrating. I am not saying Stephano threw the games, but it frustrates me to see people who say that they KNOW he did, and also people acting like it isn't a possibility whatsoever.

Stephano HAS TRIED TO THROW GAMES IN THE PAST!!! Why can't everyone just accept the fact that he may have, and also accept the fact that they don't know if he actually did it. It would be so much more sensible..........


Actually, the sensible thing to do is to assume both players played their best.

yeah, he had a good run at homestory and his fanboys was saying he was back and then he got demolished, he won't win anything against decent koreans, stephano is EG tier now so it doesn't mean much

I think only ogs had real problems with him iirc the rest of Korea seems to acknowledge him at least so some will like him I suppose.

Man, I was looking for excuses why IdrA's performance should be diminished in some way, to somehow de-legitimize his stunning play, but now that I see Leenock cheering for him, I can't help but feel:

Grack is back!

The best way to throw a game is to make it look like you didn't throw it. I have crackin' team monitoring all somatic readings; everything from individual sweat pores and neurons firing. Stephano threw that game to win the tournament - much like sacrificing a queen on bishop.
