So browsing reddit, I came across this.

Now, I'm slightly inclined to agree with him. Starcraft 2's balance is a little off, and I can see how most of the top pro's hate the game.

What really surprised me was learning that SC2's balance team consists of two people.

I was just about to post this little clip.

I agree that Zerg needs help badly atm, but Idras attitude is attrocious. Credit to him, he didn't know this would be leaked; but do you really think that kind of talk helps SC2 or even esports in general?

What company is going to want to invest in sponsoring tournaments when they hear things like this about the game?

He's an emotional guy. If he hates the game while being a progamer playing it then that's a tough place to be in, but I can only assume he'll keep playing, he's said worse.

Sounds like just a small recording taken during pre-coaching corner podcast.

Who are the 2 people balancing the game that Incontrol mentioned? David Kim and?
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

I think it is less of his actual hate of the game. More of blizzard's handling and his percieved notion that they could be doing a much better job. Though I think we can all agree that their crappy maps have to go and should be replaced not only in tournaments but also their ladder as well.

This isn't threadworthy, sorry. (And even if it was, do you see this discussion going anywhere productive?)
