IdrA trying as hard as he can to throw a game but narrowly failing right at the end really doesn't say much about balance.

Not just losing, getting absolutely stomped. Its not community biased to point out how poorly he's playing. Terrible scouting, blindly building spines, playing greedy.
drg also got absolutely stomped.
Atleast he took a game. Hell, Sheth took a game of Rain at MLG.

That was not really a good game o_O
Multi-pronged attacks like crazy but nice engagement by IdrA to turn it around. TBH if he had turned half those infestors into BLs he still would've won, the reason the end looked so awkward was weird but that wasn't what I was talking about.

No, not really. Idra had a ridiculous advantage after he killed the 3rd and 4th. Rain was literally mining off two bases and down 100 supply.
Any other Zerg against any other Protoss and the game would've ended. Rain was just that good to capitalize on Idra's passivity and mistakes to make the game look close.
Exactly. Once Rain failed to hold that push into his 3rd he already lost.
