well its funny cause a lot of the stuff he says is true. Like if i play IdrA, i have a decent chance of beating him on the ladder just because im really really really bad, which sounds silly but i can open... 4 rax allin and it could catch him off guard. Which makes it hard to know what they are doing cause... again we bad. Like a master league player playing against Diamond, you can actually lose cause you can't predict what they will do.
IMHO it is the defintion of a good player to not die even when you don't know what your opponent is doing. That is quite a basic skill, isn't it?
That's how RTS, like Brood War, are supposed to work.
It's very easy to lose in SC2 to completely random stuff. |

| I feel like this needs to be added to Idra's fanclub page because its such an succinct exhibition of his personality. |

I'll just link this classic thread and go my own way.
Foreigners Still Suck by Rekrul
...
Idra loses 2-5. The white hope of the modern day and age losing to some random zerg player from China. If you can't beat him how are you supposed to beat progamers? I mean seriously the only games you won were games on two maps, Colosseum and Destination, maps that you've been practicing on 13 hours a day in the CJ Pro-team house with Koreans. Of course those are locks but the other five? Why did you lose Idra?
Well, luckily IdrA decided to tell us!

Where did you get that impression?
He has like 600 games played on ladder, that's like 2 weeks for a progamer. Maybe a bit more on a second thought, but still not that muchLast edit: 2011-09-20 19:07:13 |

i can sign that.
His attitude prevents him from being a better player, but being a true character has got it's worth. |

That sounds like an euphemism for "clown of e-sports".  |

Hahahaha... no wonder Idra hasn't won anything in forever. He's a mental midget.
Yeah, I am sure every other pro is totally all like "That guy was awesome, totally outplayed me, I wish I could be like them." when they lose. Right or not doesn't matter, it's just not how the human mind works.
Wrong, that's just not how Idra's mind works. Watch a post-match interview of truly elite athletes like Tom Brady, Rafael Nadal, etc, they will always admit there are things they can do better (after a big win and ESPECIALLY after a big loss). The greats know there's always room to improve and that they can only control their own play, that's why they focus on their mistakes and ways to improve. The players who are busy complaining about external factors or failing to take responsibility for their own mistakes are the ones who never achieve their potential.
Those guys don't play a game where they're expected to play against average joes for practice. They're in a community where everyone (to a certain extent) is elite. You cannot compare the two without being utterly and hopelessly biased. (Which you are.)
When an athlete in any sports loses to someone who is considered a lot weaker or an underdog they certainly dont say that he is bad after they lose. Nobody ever does that in real sports...
those underdogs are still full time professional players in fields with much deeper and more developed talent pools than a 1 year old esport.
meh come on it's irrelevent, you'd do this even if SC2 had been around for 10 years
how many top flight bw pros did i legitimately call bad? i say legitimately because someone will point out how i said free's micro wasnt actually micro, but on the whole ive always respected good players. the structure of esports and particularly sc2 means that im playing with and occasionally competing with people who are actually bad by objective standards. and the design of sc2 means its possible for them to beat me through no merit of their own.
I honestly don't know about your entire history of calling people bad, I just know you tend to call people bad on the fly based on your emotions particularly huk.. and then you changed your mind when he joined ur team 
HE CHANGED after huk started winning tournaments and he lose a couple of games vs Huk.
idra is a good players but he thinks he is the only one good and everybody need to play macro to be good which is actually wrong, u are allow to play as u want. |
