"DANCE FOR ME PROFESSIONAL GAMER, I'M YOUR FAN!" Absolutely dumb, the tournament was scheduled to be over, Pool C also quit early because they were tired, Idra arriving the day of the tournament from China, pointless group play for a shitty 500 or 1000 dollars? I wouldn't stay up for that shit money. | ||

No, he was almost falling asleep in the booth, there are pictures of him almost falling asleep before the match too. I would have been more disapointed if he played shitty games now, and you would too, if you were not an Idra hater(I accuse you of being a hater because it has been stated several times that he is was almost falling asleep, and you are completely ignoring that) | ||

Its extremely frustrating and tiering to play games when you're jetlagged, not to mention the fact that the tournament was delayed by 5 hours which means he's been sitting around doing jack shit for hours upon hours getting even more tired. No, the fans are mostly happy. It's the haters that keep insisting they and the other fans are disapointed because they don't get to see shitty games | ||

Basically, i'm no IdrA fan but im sure Idra knows how he feels he probably wouldn't do this just because he must be really feeling like shit to do this. I blame more of the tournament format if a player can just skip his group play but still get a chance to win obviously somethings lacking | ||

You show the ignorance and stupidity that comes with being a mindless hater. He never made an excuse for not winning here, he simply chose to forfeit his games to get some sleep which he decided was more important since his chances of even taking second would be slim at best. Also, with the delay today the games would go on for an insane amount of time for someone who is already sleep deprived and just hurt them even more the next day. Why there is even a thread about this is beyond me. Had it been white-ra who bowed out people would be rushing to show support and people would go google jetlag to give reasons why it is such a good decision on his part. However, since it is idra, the biggest fucktards on TL come out to post. | ||

Basically his choices were: go 0-3 in group + get good rest or go 0-3 in group and get flamed/hated and then not get rest for future games It just sucks that he has like IEM -> IPL -> MLG right after each other | ||

Bad for the tournament, they lose 2 games, but smart on Idra's part. Can't say I'm a fan of the strategic forfeit though. | ||

If he finished the pool games and didn't do well then said it was down to delays and jet-lag we'd still see people calling it bm QQ'ing. | ||
