Idra's BM for me is a sure indicator he's nowhere near the level of best koreans i.e. we can't expect any bigger things from him .. yet.

The mindset that's capable of spilling out such comments isn't even aware how much room for improvement he has.

The best thing about Idra is that if you're a fan, you are guaranteed to be entertained whether he wins or loses. And the guys flaming Idra and counter-flaming are fun too; it's all part of the complete Idra entertainment package.


True, I wouldn't be an Idra fan if the Idra hate wagon wasn't so intense

Yeah that's quite true actually, I assume you don't agree with the notion because I'm told you're a bad mannered shitcunt yourself.

Idra has BM because he's a Western player, and shit-talk and the like is part of Western gaming culture. Have any of you guys played a pub game of DotA on USWest? Every other line in chat is something like "AH HAHAHA FAGGOT". Idra's "BM" is pretty tame by comparison. His skill-level has nothing to do with it.

dont think oov's or stork's bm held them back

I honestly think to succeed in bw in some way or another you sortof do need that mindset. To think that you're better than everyone else. Im pretty sure the majority of progamers dont think the way they portray themselves in interviews. A lot of people say koreans are really gm but if you understood korean you would know some of the most bm people are koreans. Its just they cant speak english well. Cant even call it bm at times because its just frustration. After like 10 minutes later the person is all fine and jolly again. Im not saying bm should be praised or anything but just to add a different side to it.

To tell you the truth I think people who say Idra is BM just don´t get the humor. Are you guys even real nerds? I mean Idra uses his words like a sword. Giant invisible DT-sword that is. Man the guy can play like no other and when he loses he always, always delivers. That´s not BM, that´s just plain genius.

And anyway guys, true winner in any sport needs to have that "ignorant" attitude so they can concentrate on how to beat their opponent instead of if they can beat their opponent. Anyone who knows someone who has mastered certain sport can confirm this.

+ Show Spoiler +
Best example in SC is probably oov, he used to speak shit of his opponents but did he ever really stop raping them compeletely?
Savior hit the bottom hard after Bisu manhandled him. Why? Because that beating made him think he was no longer the MAN. Had he just thought: "okay, this new protoss is good but he got lucky too with his new build" he would have never started to lose to any terran and zerg too. This mentality is hard to retain after losing it.
Then you say there are great players who are always nice and mannered, but why do these players speak highly of their opponents? Because they really believe what they say: "This guy has to be good because he made me fight so hard, and I´m so damn good!"

I don't like how Idra has established the "bad-boy" persona... he's just feeding off of it and that's only going to mean more BM in the future.

The thing you guys don't understand is that Jaedong has the most BM attitude of anyone in progaming. Jaedong imagines himself killing his opponent IN REALITY in his pre-game warmups. He's admitted this in interviews. Stork is fucking psychotic. He LAUGHS during LIVE TELEVISION matches because he thinks his opponents attempts to kill him are so futile and weak. Idra just types some angry text and leaves the game. Pretty tame, no?

explain

I think it's pretty irrelevant, besides, blaming your loss on something out of your control is an effective coping strategy, even if it makes you look stupid.

imo any games after then 10 minute mark favor the better player

therefore, it wasnt completely out of his control
so wouldn't pretending it was just hurt him later on?
