i really hope he starts working on ZvP tho.
He will, Slayers have a pretty solid protoss lineup.
-Puzzle
-Alicia
-Brown
-Crank
-Frozen
That should start him off with plenty of practice. Even some of the lesser known protoss like crank or frozen should provide him some solid practice. |

Bomber played a very abusive style. Double starport banshee into blue flame hellions into four Thors push. IdrA faked getting mutas and a third with his usual style, but was really massing roaches instead of droning and baiting Bomber to go for his third. As Bomber went up the ramp, he surrounded and killed his forces EASILY.
Bomber just went :D :D :D and ggd out. |

Almost exactly what ForGG been doing, except he only did one starport and made multiple banshees.
IdrA know exactly what that build looks like nowadays, he's probably had it used on him by every other terran. xD |

Two possibilities:
1) Idra actually respects everyone in Korean GM.
2) Enforced by SlayerS.
Otherwise, everyone knows one of the first signs of the apocalypse is the Gracken showing courtesy to random players. |

Double Queen at natural is really solid against Hellion FE.
Also, to anyone who thinks a record near .500 is bad... Nestea, MVP, MC, etc. all have ladder records around there. There are ladder heroes like MaKa, ForGG, aLive, etc... then there are players who play ladder just to test the waters, fine-tune mechanics, and understand new builds.
Not saying that MaKa, ForGG, and players don't do that, but the very best don't try to just ladder to ladder.
You don't consider TSLAlive the very best? LOL. What about DRG? He has a win ratio of about 70% as well. And what about Stephano, who is considered the best non-foreigner by most koreans? 72% win rate, and he only cares about achiements when there's money involved. Pretty ignorant / biased comment if you ask me. |

I don't think it's enforced by SlayerS. He's not in SlayerS. More probable is that it's EG recommending he try to make a better impression or just him on his own not wanting to make things difficult for himself.
edit: Nestea only maintained like a 55% win on his ladder accounts. It really doesn't mean anything that IdrA's 50/50 in ladder games; he's trying to learn new builds and work on specific aspects of his play, neither of which are conducive to winning every game you play.Last edit: 2011-12-12 12:42:27 |

But he's right, most koreans would rather do a lot of custom games especially when preparing for a tournament.
Its been known that Stephano doesn't like customs because he might face them in a tournament (remember reading an interview of him saying this) so he uses only ladder as practice. A lot of koreans use their team and that is why in general koreans are a tier above foreigners is because they practice in a house and against each other a ton. They don't put that much into ladder like you seem to think.
Look at makaprime he's #1 korean GM and what are his tournament results? His last time he played was in september where he lost to sjow in code A. Laddering doesn't show how good you are, but there are the exceptions.Last edit: 2011-12-12 12:46:29 |
