After watching today's games, I feel that some players have a long way before they can match it with the best of the code S players.

Watch the games. SC play very well and made very few mistakes, and FD was like one inch away of winning on metalopolis close spawns.

SC's 2 rax pressure into expansion into marine/marauder timing attack is REALLY powerful.

Yeah. He needs to get his shit in line... GSL Code S is not a place to be breezing around drinking and snowboarding instead of putting in the practice. Its just like sc said, to beat him you'd have had to practice... Nestea and IdrA are def at a different level from FD now imo...

practice doesnt win you games with zerg
luck does
smart of him to be having fun instead of wasting his time



Out of interest idra, do you think you have ever beaten a legit top player in a GOM series since GSL1?

I guess luck must be majorly on Nestea' side yea? Hes doing pretty well in nearly all of the comps he enters? No?

He's already said that basically Nestea only got this far in the current gsl by the luck of the draw. Not because he bad but zerg obviously.


Total rubbish. So Nestea reaching those other finals recently, on top of his GSL win + final 4 were lucky draws also?

There has been 1 protoss prosper in Gsl and generally, there have been more zers.

seeing Maka's build in game 1 I have a feeling he doesnt really want to play sc2 anymore (or probably not on high level)

I remember on his interview before RO32 game he said that he's getting bored with SC2, so this probably his way to get out from it ? and his games on RO32 also show lack of desire to win, wouldnt be surprised if he resign from code A

pretty sad seeing a big name gone less than 1 year of the game's lifetime

Honestly no matter how many Protoss remain in code S MC is really the only one with any hope of even getting into finals....unless Inca and Genius and Tester really step their game up all Protoss hopes of victory still ride on 1 person

well if maka prime played better he wouldnt be bored. if you watched the gsl , when he plays against zerg ,if he sees mutas , he always stims the whole troop even marauders and all the marines. who does that in code s? nobody... hes just frustated i think , he may get better but not with that mentality. just imagine if he was zerg..

im happy to see the zergs continue in code S .

Idra comments are always funny , even though im terran i understand his frustation , i would like to ask Idra if he is thinking of quiting .. or even changing race .. He seems like a quiter but he tries really hard at least that is what i think. don´t quit idra youre are better than fruitdealer and this is Wings of Liberty , imagine if this was the zerg expansion Heart of the swarm.

Yes, that is what IdrA has said. Idra said that Nestea is a really really good player. He's not trying to take that away from him or his success. He's simply saying that if you look at the players he's played, it's usually somebody who isn't nearly at his skill level or a ZvZ. Hence, Nestea got to where he is by luck of the brackets.

His point still stands regardless of Nestea's skill level.

In the case of this quoted post in particular I completely agree the person was out of line. And any ban I have personally received has been warranted, however I frequently see many of them that are done for no reason whatsoever other than the mod didn't like what the person was saying.

Dude, just a few pages back (Edit: nm different thread) the mod clearly said if you have any problems with the mods or way things are run you should PM them, not make sidecomments like this one.

Personally, I have never seen the mods do anything of the sort unless it was a joke. Keep in mind there may have PM reasons why people are banned.

Though IdrA's banning is pretty much always hilarious and warranted.

After FD won the first game against sCfOu, he looked like he had a really bad hangover. No wonder he went zergling/baneling agression in the second game, hoping for a quick win.

FD looked a bit more awake and alive after that, but I don't think he treats himself too nicely.

I am really happy seeing JulyZerg get into Code S. His ZvT looks quite solid. His ZvZ on the other hand looks really crappy. Good for him there aren't that many Zergs in Code S.

His point still stands regardless of Nestea's skill level.


You know what's more hilarious? In the recent IdrA interview, he says that him and Nestea only advanced because they got the "easy" brackets, and that there should be concern that no other zergs did. Well holy fucking shit, if they got the easy brackets, then the others obviously got the harder ones rofl.

And at least one zerg that I can remember was guaranteed to get knocked out because there were 3 in one group. Assuming that everyone had a 50% chance to win their games, this shows that there was a very good chance that TWO of the zergs would be knocked out.

Please tell me who MC beat in S3 that was any good. The only one was MarineKing. Don't talk about Jinro now, because obviously he refined his TvP. Don't mention July either because he is not top tier at SC2 at all right now.

IdrA if you genuinely feel that winning is zerg is all about luck, and you want to make a living out of playing SC2... then why haven't you changed races already. I mean its way the obvious move for someone to make given your feelings about the state of the game and desire to win.

Since you're temp banned and can't answer, let me do it for you:

1) Your statement is BS and deep down inside you know it
2) You're afraid that you'll fall too far behind and not be able to catch up if you switch races
3) You are actually a changeling sent here by the zerg race to infiltrate our SC2 pro scene. I am in the process of building a raven and sending it to South Korea where you will be revealed and promply swatted to death by an SCV.

To be fair, MC continued to show overall dominance by beating NesTea and Clide in the YGosu Invitational and easily winning over Naama and Ret in the Kapersky New Year's Invitational.

In GSL 4, 3 Zergs were eliminated from the Ro32 in groups that had no other Zergs (TheWinD, Kyrix, and Leenock). Kyrix was eliminated by Choya and Tester, who admittedly both made Ro8. TheWinD fell to BoxeR and Hyperdub, both of who placed dead last in their Ro16 groups. Similarly, the two who beat Leenock to Ro16, Genius and Rainbow, were eliminated in Ro16 groups.

The only Zerg players who were eliminated due to having multiple of their race in the group were Check (IdrA/Jinro), FruitDealer, and JookTo. FruitDealer has been in somewhat of a slump lately, and JookTo never really had that much of a chance to go far anyway, so Check was the only one eliminated from the Ro32 purely by virtue of multiple Zerg in a single group.

dangerous there for FD, would have sucked if he went to code S. Pretty excited to see what July can do in code S, although he hasn't produced any great results thus far.
