This bring back many memories. I remember husky uploading vods of idra games during the beta, all of which happened to be him ragequiting or talking shit about his opponent, and everyone hated him for that and thought he sucked because he couldn't block cheese and allins. But now, he's the guy who everyone cheers for among the foreigners and his making huge success.
If I had at least a gram of respect for Husky (unlikely) it's 100% gone now. And it's not even the first time he does this. Hell not even the fifth.
i cant believe husky gets this low. now i am pretty sure that all he wants/have done is REALLY for gaining himself popularity by using sc2 ie making money out of sc2 ie using esport for self profit. GJ husky.
Yeah, i saw husky's silly upload too. Totally old game which has 0 relevace, but husky uses it to deliver the "idra ragequit" his "huskateers" want... just shows how much of an attention whore he is.
so i dont wanna make anyone upset but what does husky want to get by uploading idra matches where he only loses? making a mockery out of him or what? wheres the point?
Husky isn't a SC2 commentator anymore, he's a Youtube celebirty now. There is no legitimate or relevant reason to upload a game where IdrA gets all-inned and 'ragequits'. But for mr H to the usky Husky it's a opportunity to gain more popularity and subscribers, it's no surprise for me that he's doing this, i unsubscribed months ago because i noticed that he is a subwhore.
Husky may be a great guy and all, but for me he's nothing more than a sub-whore.
Go to the 7 minute mark and listen to his fake laugh.. How can you not dislike this guy?
This game is months old and has no value at all, there were so many patches released inbetween, the metagame changed a lot and everything is different now. What is the point in releasing this video other than just try'na flame IdrA? This is pathetic; from my point of view he's gone to far with his gold level commentary for his bronze level viewers..
congratulations idra you were awesome....i couldn't believe it when i saw the 3-0...too bad you have to play jinro so early...
about husky....idra does not release his own replays...ok...i can understand that...but why on earth commentate on such an old replay? and even if you do, why do it on a game that nothing interesting happened? and what is this fake laugh at the end? for me it's more than "just a harmless vod"...

Erm... Everyone used to hate Idra? Really?
Yea, a lot of people who watched HD and Husky (myself included) got the impression that he's whiny and stubborn and inflexible as a player. So he gets pissed and rages when loses even in legitimate ways.
The fact is he actually tries a lot of creative timings and tricks and is one of the most solid players in the whole world right now. And I can definitely understand his frustration when his opponent's timings and macro are completely terrible, yet still defeat him using a much larger army (or defeating him with a smaller army even with poor micro). It can be really quite surprising how easily zerg can lose.

Plus, I think Idra is hilarious and awesome.
Husky and HD don't give off any relevant game knowledge such as 2 Barracks is hard to defend for Zerg. Or this cheese is going to give Idra a hard time. It's more or less "THIS LEGIT AND SKILLED 3 BARRACKS AND FULL SCV ALL IN IS LOOKING GOOD" "OH LOOK IT'S CRUSHING IDRA OH DAMN THIS MARINE I NAMED STEVE IS DEAD BUT IDRA LEFT WITHOUT GGING SO ITS ALL GOOD"

husky i dont really like that much anymore, but i do like hd somewhat. i mean i prefer day9 and psy over him but i dont notice HD really hating on idra as much. unless im missing something.
I don't get the hatred against Husky and HD, they are doing their thing and they are contributing something to the community, especially newer members; in the early stages of the beta Husky's channel got me into tl and broodwar. And yes, they are biased, if you have a problem with that don't watch their content or at least stay somewhat objective when you criticize them.
Everyone who is interested in the pro-gaming community will soon get involved in communities like tl.net and see that Idra is not just a random douche bag insulting people and being bm all the time. He is one of the best foreigners (if not the best) in sc2 at this point and he just has his style.
I'm getting sick of the love him or hate him attitude that so many people have, as soon as the name husky or morrow appears in a thread people are starting a discussion what Idra possible thinks about them or what Idra said about them at some point of time (just happened again today in the Home Story Cup thread).
Personally I am very impressed with Idra's current GSL performance, he has improved a lot. He became less predictable and more aggressive. The game versus Genius was brilliant play by him, also the defense against Nada was really good play.
And yeah these days I'd rather watch Idra's stream than Husky's channel, but I still like some things Husky makes and at least show some respect.
