hey, does anyone know if this weekend games were played before 1.3 patch hit, or after?
it kinda is big difference, especially for zvp.

Is there a problem between them?


probably he was talking about: "we've done a lot of improvements and upgrades in the last two weeks" and not better because ret left...

Q: Your first round opponent is a relatively unknown player - Cruncher. What are your thoughts about him?

I'm approaching the match as if it were a walkover.

Q: Are you confident you can beat him? Do you expect him to do any risky strategies against you?

Yes, he's going to 4 gate all-in both games unless he decides to be clever and make voidrays or DTs.


Sigh. Idra confidently asserting how his opponent will play the next game in the prematch interviews, and acting accordingly, is part of what got him kicked out of TSL2. If Cruncher has even half a brain, he'll have a couple of fake 4gate builds lined up to take advantage. Also a real 4gate masquerading as a fake 4gate for a followup.

I suppose it's too late to change my liquibet to Cruncher...

IdrA played him in the JTV invite tournament recently and Cruncher was falling apart trying to play a macro game against IdrA...but we will see

I think that didn't come out the way he wanted to. He probably just meant that a lot of things have happened ever since he left.

These interviews were done before 1.3 hit. Now, I'm not so sure that he's all that confident anymore (infestor WOO). :D

I think for reference, some of the newer members should look at IdrA's interview before he played NonY last TSL.

+ Show Spoiler [IdrA interview from TSL2] +

PokerStrategy.com TSL:
What is your prediction for this match? Are you going to defeat Nony?

IdrA[Media]:
Of course I will. I actually gained a lot of confidence from our seed match. His only real chance to beat me is cheese, and the Destination game where he cheesed demonstrated just how uncomfortable he is with that style of play. He opened gas rush, which is good, but then went fast nexus which threw away that advantage, and then went blatantly obvious carriers when my fast cc would allow me to timing push freely, even while getting a 3rd cc.

PokerStrategy.com TSL:
Were you impressed by Nony's 6-0 against Horror and Tarson?

IdrA[Media]:
If I beat him 3-2 BBS vs double nexus every game it would be more impressive than beating a European Terran 3-0 PvT.

PokerStrategy.com TSL:
What do you think about his prediction that he will beat you?

IdrA[Media]:
Only emo or falsely modest Europeans predict that they're going to lose games. Confidence is everything in any kind of competition. If you don't absolutely expect to win, you don't really have much of a chance. So yes of course he says that, but it doesn't mean anything.

PokerStrategy.com TSL:
How will you counter double nexus and the unit that kills everything?

IdrA[Media]:
Trick question? Double nexus doesn't have a counter.

PokerStrategy.com TSL:
So if Nony goes double nexus every game, you might lose?

IdrA[Media]:
Nah, if he can get a free double nexus diagonal positions on Andromeda and still almost lose, it won't really matter what builds he does.

PokerStrategy.com TSL:
Will it be a 3-0 victory for you?

IdrA[Media]:
Yes.

PokerStrategy.com TSL:
What are your predictions for the other matchups?

IdrA[Media]
Ret vs Sen I dont really know, I've heard Sen's zvz is really good and theres always the luck factor. I'd imagine it'll be 3-2 either way with Ret more likely to win. White-Ra vs JF I don't know much about either, but Ra is the better player. JF's play wasn't nearly as impressive against Terran as a lot of people seemed to think, and he's up against another Protoss this time. White-Ra should win. Mondragon vs Fenix I think Mondragon will win 3-1, but it's not impossible for Fenix. Mondragon will be much more capable of dealing with unusual strategies than Kolll, and I think Brat's standard TvZ is better than Fenix's.

PokerStrategy.com TSL:
Is Nony your biggest threat?

IdrA[Media]
No, I think the Ra vs JF winner will be more dangerous simply because they're more comfortable with cheesy, abusive play. If Nony wants to play to my weaknesses, he takes himself out of his element as well, so while he is the more skilled player, I'm much more comfortable with him style wise.

PokerStrategy.com TSL:
Hypothetically, if Nony wins, what would you say to him?

IdrA[Media]:
I don't know, I've never really been a fan of thinking about situations that aren't gonna happen. Seems kinda like a waste of time.

PokerStrategy.com TSL:
Thanks for the interview and we look forward to your games!

IdrA[Media]:
Thanks, I hope they're good.

LOL Haypro, I used to watch smallville all the time with my brother but stopped after like the 4th season or so.
Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crown and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness.

Q: If you had to introduce yourself to our fans who never met you, how would you describe yourself? Write a few sentences about your personality.

Personality should be irrelevant. This is a computer game tournament, not a dating show.
