Yea a little upset about that spoilers tbh. When I read spoilers I expect it to be about shit I missed. That people who tuned in know. Not future results. Now Ill just be watching to see how he wins I guess.

If you don't use spoiler tags correctly (I.E. warning that's it's about a FUTURE event) then people like me and others will get spoiled for real, because we consider that we saw the most recent IdrA matches. If there was a match yesterday and I didn't see it, then I might go "oh well, let's just read the spoiler and see what happened". But for these FUTURE EVENTS, if I end up watching it then it kills the fun. | ||

The way they reply to them can easily be interpreted by people who didn't even read them. I would tell people to just move on and stay on current matches instead of upcoming ones at this point, but of course, no one will listen. EDIT: On the games today, while it was great seeing him win vs Fenix so easily, it's sad to see his teammate Machine lose to a similiar, but less difficult to break bunker rush. Select's skill may have been a factor; too bad it didn't show of Machine's skill. | ||

Due to fact IGN (IPL) was just the best NA players? On his way to the title he beat Fenix 2-0 Drewbie 2-0 Kiwikaki 3-0 Select 3-2 then in Winners final without losing game he then beat Kiwikaki again 3-2 in final to take home the prize! I mean thats some class there beating Kiwi a top protos player twice!!! and having a total record of 13-4 which is pretty good! Cant wait to see Idra own NASL and the rest of these tournaments up! Proves to all those haters Idra CAN and WILL win any tournaments thrown at him! THE DOMINANCE HAS ARRIVED!!! IPL spoilers: + Show Spoiler + I'm so glad he won it, and i'm double glad that he beat KiWiKaKi (who is really amazing protoss). Gonna watch the IPL vods to see how he menaged to do it. Must be some risky play, and risky play is mostly entertaining ;] IdrA fighting! GL | ||

That drawing of Idra always seemed wrong. Now I know exactly how wrong it was. | ||

It seems like people are treating Idra's success as a simple "W, let's move on", rather than going on the rollercoaster ride that is a tournament victory. And Idra's had a rough trot recently... this would have been a pretty momentous occasion for Idra fans. Spoiler for IPL result, sorry if i messed it up. + Show Spoiler + Yep, somewhat. I've gone into many tournaments over the last year knowing IdrA would lose, because it's IdrA...he just doesn't win tournaments these days. To see him finally get a big win, especially dismantling an abusive protoss player like Kiwikaki, would've been pretty exciting to see. Congrats to him though, looks like it was a very well deserved win. | ||

Posting match history spoilers is doing a disservice to said tournament and destroying any hype surrounding said tournament. I'm not usually one to care for spoilers, but spoiling a whole tournament through match history extrapolation is idiotic. That's your opinion man. I like knowing the results, people just have to use spoilers correctly. | ||

ed: also another way is to make the match history a maximum of 10 matches for GMs when anyone other than the account holder looks at it, so the match history can be quickly cleared by 10 games of starjeweled. | ||
