Idra will never be the top SC2 player, though he will be very good, because smart players will know that they can throw him off with cheese and play with his head a bit, just like Nony did in TSL.
Why assume anything at all? How do you (or anybody) know that he didn't go "wow, that was weird never saw that before guess i know what NOT to do from now on"?
Is it really necessary to post a new topic every time that somebody beats Idra and he doesn't GG. Who cares? Grow up.

Oddly enough, I still don't see blink used all that often, even when my Protoss opponents have stalkers in the mix. It's just so strong, and in my opinion, can pay for itself very quickly.
On top of being useful in battle situations as highlighted in the video vs Idra, it can also be used effectively in harass situations as well.
Really strong ability. Anyone could do that, that was nothing special at all. Just saying. Sure, you can do it. Can you do it while maintaining unit production at that warp-in pylon, while building in base, and while making sure to come back and blink out the damaged stalkers like this player did.
Yes, because he wasn't building in base. He was just warping in and blinking out low HP stalkers. All he had to do was scroll his screen to the nearby pylon, hit w S S S and spam click, then move to the stalkers, click one on low hp, and hit B and click behind the pack. Even the worst WC3 players have been doing that for years. It looks impressive, and it's cool of him to come up with the idea, but it's not difficult to pull off thanks to health bars.

Why is Idra such an ass and doesn't gg before he quits? Acting like a whiny 8 year old is not cool, I don't care if he was pro in Korea.

seen the rep right after the zotac cup finished, really nice play by bobby. naz tried it today against me on kulas, turns out mass speedlings into speed roaches own it.

90% of players don't gg when they leave games, how do you discern that he's a whiny 8 year old?

Most people on US server don't, and this definitely wasn't a tourney. People need to just leave idra alone and stop assuming he has an aneurysm whenever he loses a game.

Again, just saying.

Drunk Bobby is a fucking monster!

I don't get why people whine about not saying gg in unofficial matches. grow up? It doesn't mean anything and when you are grinding games it would be tiresome to keep lying to the opponent when in actuality you don't believe it was a good game.
Only in a tournament do you owe your opponent the respect to say good game. That is because the tournament games are the accumulations of all of your practice. So stop using it as an excuse to bash Idra. I'm not defending him but the zealous hatred towards anything he does which is perceived BM is so childish.

Wouldnt really call this impressive micro, the only thing that would be impressive if is idra would actually be abble to beat this army, but stalkers much faster than roaches/zerglings and bigger range, don't have to be next bisu to click a few stalkers to the back, idra's army is handicapped vs this so simply not that impressive ;e
its like microing maradeurs with slow upgrade vs zealots/stalker or so, or to speak in wc3 terms dryads vs grunts or sorceress vs grunts etc, even though this was a bit harder, not really all that hard :D

192 000 views wow
I guess this makes statements about lings being too easy to use untrue. IdrA rushed and lost too many but at the same time only attacked the closest Stalkers instead of going for the most weakened. I like how those Stalkers regain shields too

Personally, I consider calling "gg" a responsibility because it contributes and maintains the best gaming community in the world. If you have come to love the manners of this community (whether it's unofficial, competitive, or just plain leisure, show your respect and call gg.

Excellent first post. This is the best gaming community in the world. I love manners to. I also love necroing threads.
I think this is the end of our friendship MSrabbiT. I don't ever gl hf, I only gg if it was a gg and I hate forum necromancers.
