And seriously to people saying that Idra should've gotten some AA for the drops, it would be so inefficient to do any tech swaps at any point in the game once he went ultra/ling. Mid game, if he tried to drop a spire/hydra den, his hive/ultra tech would've been much later and he would've been rolled by those tanks. Late game, he was supply capped at 200/200 with ultras/ling/infestor. Hydralisks are too slow, even on creep, to catch up to that many drops happening at once, and unless Idra made alot of hydralisks guarding each base for drops, trying to get AA wouldn't have made much sense to me imo. all idra had to do was position infestors better and watch the minimap better and alot of those drop would have been minimalized. but yeah he didn't need AA just a little more refined play (and not getting flustered by the crazy drops) | ||

It was fun to see such big names duke it out, but neither Boxer nor Idra played outstanding that game. I especially think Boxer is being a little overhyped... but what can you expect? It's Boxer! Some clever micro, but I wasn't terribly impressed with the rest of his play. Again though, no surprise, he's not a pro SC2 player (yet?). | ||

However, I don't think anybody could be classified as a "pro" until the release of the expansion. However, I take that back. Cool and Rainbow should be given the title as "pro on sc2" simply because of how they dominated their "ro8-ro4" opponents. But, with everybody making the transition onto Starcraft 2, I don't see iDra or any forigner making it into the top 64. Unless it's me playing of course  | ||

Unless it's me playing of course Being "pro"(fessional) has nothing to do with expansions or how long the game has been out or how hard you dominate your opponents. A pro is a person who earns money by the playing the game. The opposite of pro is amateur and that dooesnt mean your not good at the game, it only means you earn your money doing other things. | ||

Which is exactly what I meant- Boxer isn't paid to play SC2 so it's no surprise for me to see Idra outplaying him. | ||

I'm sure artosis would like free money if it meets your needs  Or a $600 PC. An old c2d + 4gb ram + $150 video card is all you need to run on ultra and capture video at the same time. | ||
