First two games were fun, then last two games were sad. I don't care that he wins or loses, but watching 6pools just makes me feel like I'm wasting my time. If he doesn't get away from this attitude he'll never reach his full potential. And there's plenty of potential to be reached.

Every once in a while I want to play SC2 again, but then I'm reminded by how horrible ZvP is. It isn't a balance thing, it is just boring. Force Fields and Vortex are so stupid, but if the Protoss didn't have it, Zerg could a-move to win.

If he doesn't get away from this attitude he'll never reach his full potential. And there's plenty of potential to be reached. he'll never reach his potential for 2 reasons:
1) he doesnt have one
2) people dont change.. he still remains the same old idra, which is very sad
|
so I've been a long time Idra fan, certainly plenty of posts in this thread.. but recently Idra has been seriously embarrassing to even be a fan of.
I'm starting to wonder if EG is secretly telling him to play worse and act more and more sensational because they've realized his brand is more valuable than any skill/practice/accomplishment Idra could produce.

WHY - Is your basic timings using roaches so terrible
WHY - DON'T YOU GO AT 200/200
WHY - Don't you get 3/3
WHY - Don't you stick to the cliffs so archons can't hit you
WHY - Don't you neural
WHY - Don't you spend your minerals on spines and lings
WHY - Don't you make nydus to take out bottom right
why, why,why,why,why,why,why,why do you have to let ZvP hold you back so insanely hard? Can you just stop setting up yourself for a great game and then throw it all away in a completely terrible engagement Idra's roach timings are actually pretty good as far as I know. It's the decision making with them that loses him games. Neural against Mothership is close to impossible against a player with good control, I feel. Huk's control is top notch, so I don't see him fucking up so bad taht Idra got in range with infestors. Screw that, his gas timings are consistently horrible, upgrade wise aswell ZvP And he was in neural range, but did not pay attention to his infestors and got them all vortexed. Also iDra engages like a blind three legged drunken cow Why would you say his gas timings are bad? He DID neural several times, and GUESS WHAT, HUK DOESNT SUCK SO HE SNIPED THEM OR VORTEXED BEFORE INFESTORS GOT IN RANGE. Frustration is taking over Yeah because idra is just terrible at fungaling away things. HuK in the shakuras game, just walked a naked mothership and vortexed 8 infestors. Cleanly. Why idra was away from his spines, why he had so poor broodlords placement is beyond anyone of us. And his gas timnigs in ZvP is overall terrible when going roach, he takes it too early and always have shitty upgrades over the course of the game. Oh, do you maybe think he vortexed the infestors becase vortex has 2 range more than neural? We've always known that Idra's army management is less than stellar, but neural against mothership is insanely hard to pull off no matter who plays it. Point me to a game where his gas timings when going roach is bad. Really, I haven't seen a game he failed at gas timing when going roach About a ton of ZvP where he goes gas < 40 when transitioning into roach, he said himsefl he wanted to copy DRG's gas timings. Yet has not done that. There is a reason he loses to every protoss (Shit he goes 2-1 to Attero, a guy even I win over) while players like Ret steamrolls trough. And I don't give a damn about neural range. One infestor should have tried to neural that mothership, either A: he would have forced a vortex on one infestor, or B: neuraled the mothership. The only times I've seen him go <40 gas with a normal 3 base is when he go banelings. Not seen fail at gas timings in a long time(like months)
He tried it several times, but Huk's control is better than Idra, so the infestor was just sniped or feedbacked before it got something done. He probably could've pulled it off once or twice if he really went out of his way to get it, but I think there were other things to prioritize, like actually pushing before the Mothership has 2 bloody vortexes, or actually splitting his Blords effectively...
AND AS I WRITE, IDRA IS STREAMING

Yeah, the last truly interesting PvZ games were by Leenock. His 6 pool into other random aggression builds were fascinating. But they got figured out way too fast. I was never a fan of the base-trade muta style, but others might have preferred those and you still saw them a month or two ago.

sigh.. idra went live and i dont know if i wanna watch after such a poor performance

If you've followed Idra entire 2011 you can see he has clearly changed. Not all good yet apparently, but he has a lot better mindset I think

Then you have missed his ZvP pro games ~~~~~~
Even the man himself commentated his gas timings.
And screw this, its not about getting that neural done, its to force a vortex or something because huk had a mothership out infront of his army several times. But nope he got his infestors vortexed for some reason when they could have been at the spines or spread out.
Huk's control isn't even that good, it was idra who lost those series not huk who won them. I hope he fucking gets it together so he can win. And not throw away games.

as a person who watches idra's stream, all i see is the same raging kid
someone asked advices of what he could do better in the game, and idra just said "you're bad'', and that was february this year
idra will NEVER change, i can guarantee that.. if he changes, is because he NEEDS to, but once he gets in a situation where he can be bm, im pretty sure he'll act like the old idra
he will always be mediocre in this game compared to other good zergs in the world. just because he made good results in 2010, 2011 and now he's playing poorly doesn't man he's changed or smth like that.. simply other players got better , more competitive while he stucks with old mindset
