Also, why do you think Idra picked Zerg in the first place?

..

Because the race is the way it is, you can play it like a robot and it doesn't gain much in strenght if you're creative. So he's setting himself up for things he'll use as excuses later on.


Something is wrong with you.

I always thought he played it because he likes to make the biggest pile of dudes fastest.

IdrA said he likes Zerg for the macro-style.

He is considered one of the best macro players in the world right now.


What makes you think he is lying or something..?

TLO - has same chance as Idra did RO8 with ease IMO.


So you think TLO is going to beat Hyperdub and Tester with ease? Not likely.


I think TLO will beat Hyperdub but not Tester

will be waiting with suspense though, TLO is awesome

edit: im also happy IdrA got knocked out, this kid's ego does not need to win any big tournaments

Something is wrong with you.

objects appear differently from the perspective of different subjects.

But perhaps I can elaborate.

He plays like a robot. Then he picks Zerg because it's the most suitable for this kind of play. Then, he continues to play like he did before. People ask why he plays like that. He answers that it's because that's the way to play Zerg.

He's staying locked in his own world, denies any chance of attempting to expand his views and continues to mathematically play a game which has many other elements to it.
That's why in my opinion Idra will never be a top level player. At least not when the real progamers switch.

Saying that he plays like a robot is just stupid, the reasons you posted are also not the reason for not advancing.

Also, I'm glad to see the koreans taking over. My only exception is TLO because he is amazing.


I have no idea why you would want Koreans to be the only players again. None.

For those of you who think IdrA plays like a robot...look no further than Zim to see a true computer at work (WCG )

Actually i think idra would've won game 3 if he had just all in attacked after he pushed back lotze's early army, but instead he just sat at his base and did nothing.
