EPTThere is a difference between thinking there is a right way to play and thinking that one race has idiotic mechanics that allow for some really coinflippy plays.

Are we pretending like roach/bane all-ins never existed? Zerg has strong cheese as well. | ||

I love it. i tuned into idras stream once ever and i immediately saw him type, verbatim: "the only reason you're winning is because you're doing something that's bad and i thought you would do something a good player would do" | ||

Its the better player's fault for not scouting and exploiting it. How can they think they're the better player if they don't even react? You watch Life (or MC or Parting) and you see how they jumps at weakness at a moments time. Idra could never be top tier because he was always held back by his rigid style and lack of flexibility. | ||

If you are good at SC you are aware you are playing with limited information and you are trying to fill in certain blanks. You need to be aware of where the blanks exist. Often times they are more important than what you know. If you fill in blanks and present them to yourself as a certainty that is a poor mindset. What you do NOT know is often times more important than what you DO know. IdrA's issue was constantly thinking he was playing with a full picture of the game state at all points in time. But you are not. When he read the situation correctly yes he was a very good mechanical player who could defeat most. But he was far from the best at reading game state and interpreting the situation accurately which was ultimately his downfall. Worst part is he didn't realize that was a major problem. | ||
