Ok, sorry. But things and excuses he says are just ridicilous. Is it so hard to take lose and continue to play?


@ Yayba vs Sab9000

I really don't know how did Yayba lose that + stream was going down that replay 2-3 times so it was bit hard to follow.

But I just think Sab9000 attacked with right force in right timing window.When I seen Defiler usage without lurkers vs mass zeal+arch+goon I did think Yayba really has the game.

Map is imho very nice for Zerg too so maybe that was also a factor for Sab9000.

Yeah, we're going to try to figure something out for next week. Usually uStream works fine so it was disappointing that it decided not to. We might try to switch to mogulus if we can figure out how to get our account "verified" heh.

Anyway, it's actually OSL style groups.. round robin (each player plays everyone else in their group once). So there's no losers match, JF will just have to play the others in the group and try to get 2-1.

I think Idra is easily one of the better foriegners out there but he needs to learn to tackle his nerves. His mechanics are so nice but he makes little mistakes here and there that along with his lack of mental toughness cost him games.

i wont be making it out of the group
i emailed them a week ago that xiaozi has horrible lag, with me at least (and with a bunch of other people, though he claims he doesnt). they chose to do nothing about it, so ive withdrawn from the league.


lol. excuses, Idra, excuses.

Thats one of the most pathetic things i ve ever read... The reason why he lost respect ( if he ever had some in the first place) is because he is a BM kid, and saying its his personality its even more lame.. He cant even think a little before posting and he cant show respect to his fellow gamers like gg after the game or "shit talk" on the forums..

Case closed..

Not really. Imagine a world without BM people like Idra, Firebathero, go.go, and that Jose Mourinho guy.

People like Idra make eSports and sports interesting. If everone was gm than there would be much less drama.

All the best games in Sc were because of the skill and intensity displayed in the matches, not because of some bm guy vs gm guy.
If Idra actually put all his focus and effort of bming into practice and learning, I'm pretty sure he'll be better off then how he is right now.

If you want some rivarly and drama why don't you go watch some "professional" wrestling or somehting?

Thats a ridiculous assertion..I dont think he practices "being bm", you really dont think he sits around for hours thinking of things to say when he gets cheesed, that pretty silly, it just comes out naturally. And the lag issue was clearly brought up before the match, so its not an excuse out of nowhere. But yea I guess thats all that needs to be said, or rather can be said. I hope for some good matches from the rest.

I think what fantasy means is that IdrA needs to change his attitude if he wants to go anywhere in this game.

I suppose that would make more sense than the way he said it, but nonetheless this isn't necessarily true either way.

I think you are misquoting or misunderstanding, because I never said he hasnt accomplished anything, I was merely stating his aftergame reactions in reality likely have very little to do with his improvement and progress.

Can you really compare FBH's behaviour to IdrA's?
Is FBH bad mannered to his "fans"?

anyway, great event!
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.
