I don't really know much about SCR but I'll be tuning in just because Idra is on the panel. I don't understand people making the "villain" argument. Everything we've heard from iNcontroL and others points to IdrA not returning to this game in a serious/competitive fashion, citing reasons such as focusing on his studies and not wanting to be in the spotlight anymore. I'd be happy to see IdrA on this kind of show again and I'd also be happy to be wrong about this, but let's not pretend this means his return to StarCraft. | ||

I don't think it does signal his return to the scene. I just think he's a very interesting character and I'm happy to watch him talk about the topic. | ||

p.s. you can say about Idra whatever you want, but he really invented the "bw-elitism". Used to talk a lot about how people who he lost to in Sc2 sucked in 'the real game'. Guess what the real game is. | ||

Clearly tells me that he still has a follow, more that enough to have him in this show. | ||

All he did was talk smack and you want to treat him like Savior? Come on now. Not the same, sAviOr should go to jail (he did eventually? Don't remember). As for the price. Yea he got kicked out but he wasn't doing good by the time anyway and EG gladly took him to HotS shortly thereafter so I don't know about that. Yes he draws more people than he pushes away but some of these people can be drawn in different way while people he pushes are lost as an audience. | ||

I have faith geoff is smarter than that and keeps in mind most people will watch the vods, but i fear that they will take the low numbers as disinterest instead of the fact that everyone and their dogs/mother/children etc will be watching one of the greatest show's ever made. | ||

I'm sure they will look at the feedback afterwards as well. But yeah, it's the last episode of GoT as well, gonna be tough to compete. | ||
