Well played Lotze you exploited IdrA's main weakness: his stubborness of expecting how his opponent should play rather than preparing for all possibilities the best he can.

Please IdrA stop being so damn stubborn and scout more!
I was really cheering for IdrA that game, guy deserves something for all that hardwork he's been doing in Korea these last few years.

QFT to this. Best of luck next GSL Idra!

I like that just as he was starting to get outmuscled, he switched it up and came through with the W. Congrats

Also, I kind of have to agree with some of the other people. Idra should know to scout for all hidden expansions, regardless of opponent or how well he thinks he knows what the opponent is doing. Lotze did a proxy pylon warp in attack, Idra should have scouted for other proxy pylons which may have been for warp harass anyway(6oclock). Furthermore, this seems to be a recurring theme with Idra, I understand he is amazing as a player, but if you play a strategy game you cant solely rely on your mechanics to win all your games, there clearly are other aspects of the game. Very well played from Lotze, but I was hoping Idra would go further.
I don't need luck, luck is for noobs, good luck to you though

Really wished IdrA would have went through, but full congratulations to Lotze here.

IMO, Match history scouting isn't a big deal! Idra was smart for actually looking into his opponent's build history to identify a pattern.

If Idra was actually smart then he would have practiced against those builds on a different account.

"I had a lot of minerals left over, so I built that expansion, and I think it ended up giving me quite a benefit."

YOU THINK?? Oh really? Yeah, i think so too

You shouldn't really get too stuck on single words when it's translated like that.

Thanks very much for translating that interview.

Smart games from Lotze. I'm sad to see Idra out, but that was some high-class entertainment! Complete with a Defense, a Ruse, and an Epic Finale. I was laughing so hard when Artosis was mad fanboy "Come on IDRA! I don't care what anyone thinks! I'm biased!" Hahahah. Great broadcast.

He is totally sounding like a BW pro here. Always with the "I will buy them something tasty..."

I love it

wtf ... what would that have done? Lotze didn't look at Idra's match history, it was Idra looking at Lotze's which Lotze only found out this morning and it didn't even really matter because he ended up using the same build anyway game 1! Second of all, opponent's preferred builds get revealed VERY OFTEN if you ever followed competitive BW.

Just for the record, IdrA actually did try to scout the 7 o'clock but he blocked the ramp with a stalker meaning all units heading into the base would ignore the ramp and walk into a wall. Good job Blizzard defeats IdrA yet again.

Whose fault is that? Blizzard's?

Quit giving new forumers a bad name by BSing.

....so if you noticed your unit that was sent into an area does not end up in that area, would you not be suspicious as well?

Congratulations Lotze, now like 90% of the TL population loves you -.-


Fixed.

Milkis, you are like our direct link to the korean news, we should build a huge statue in your honor.

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


I think you being glad that the Koreans are taking over is the exception to the rule. Most of us would probably like to see a few non-Koreans.

Next season!


Uh, that's possible but there are some of us westerners who aren't xenophobic and have no problem supporting the better players even if they happen to be Korean.


All he said was he would "...like to see a few non-Koreans." How do you have a problem with that? Chill, dude. Let him be patriotic in a rest-of-the-world sense.

Or he could have just realized that moving into the wall means that something is blocking it and up there, like a logical person? IdrA lost. Blaming Blizzard really won't change that as it wasn't Blizzard's fault that IdrA lost.
Life is Good.

Yes in the late game of his last match he should be wondering why his lings didnt get up the ramp rather than the other unimportant stuff going on
