I know. I was expressing my opinion on the matter. What some people hate about him, I find refreshing. His attitude may seem bad for 99% of the people not on his level, but that doesnt make him wrong.

Before you say his attitude is holding him back, he went into the MC match expecting to get 2-0. He didnt care, he 2-0s MC. Then he comes out and says he will 2-0 Mc and he gets 4-0d. Maybe his attitude is what works for him, and who are you to judge that?

I didn't mind reading your opinion, it was enjoyable. I don't really know what's up with Idra. I wanted to point out that in the second paragraph you said 'exhume' when you probably meant 'express' or something similar.

Yez, I agree with you, that's why I like him too. But my point is just that he's so analytical that it hurts his potential.

I saw his interview where she comes on stage, it was super awkward and I assumed she was just somebody in the crowd and it was a joke?? She's really his girlfriend? She's hot, good for him!

To me Idra has one of the biggest personalities in the scene: he's direct and says exactly what he believes to be true. And he doesn't care what anyone else thinks, he walks his own path. That takes utmost courage. I give Greg props because he's not fake, he is his own character. I'm glad to hear he has a girlfriend now, he's growing up emotionally. Combined with the muscles he's really becoming a man in front of our very eyes.

On the other hand I can't stand people like MC; all smug and bursting with confidence on the outside when he's probably insecure inside his own head. It's good to be confident but the way he does it makes it seem like an exhibition. I can't stand fake people.

I was going to make a post very similar to this . You pretty much summed up what I planned to say.

Idra is an ass to everyone who doesn't play zerg... He complains about imbalance everyday and gg's before he's lost then complains about it... How can any one like him? There isn't an honorable bone in his body and it makes me sick...

Maybe if he actually took all the match ups the way he takes zerg v zerg, then maybe there's a chance for him, but until he starts to understand that whining doesn't get your way (most 5 year olds understand the concept) he won't be as great as he could be...

Personally I loved MC beating Idra because he lost because of his whining attitude and it really proved my point.

...Dude, that's the whole point of MC's confidence, to do an exhibition for the fans...

I also think that there's a side of Idra most don't see, I mean he definitely has a sense of humor [hotbid mlg interview] and there have been the rare sightings of (gasp) Idra smiling in a photo
