Lets see whether he can take it!

So you do it because you're "supposed to"

If you're new, IdrA doesn't give a damn about what others think of him or about acting a certain way to please people

How on earth is this being considered surprising or even being discussed? He's IdrA, he's been like this, people either love him or hate him for it, so please just make your decision and leave it at that - don't post on his fan club telling him how to act

To me, Boxer is only famous for being the Slayers coach in SC2, though. It's not like we're still playing the same game. He is not even in the GSL anymore, or is he?

If you knew IdrA before sc2 you would not have posted that. He only bm's people that are 'under' him, so to speak. Before, he would not even dream of giving attitude to a bonjwa.

I was a die-hard fan actually until yesterday!

His shenanigans at MLG and his previous early-gg's were fine, to a certain extent. It's stupid and childish but that's why I liked him. Quitting games without gg'ing and all around BM was cute and everything...

However, when you lose to Boxer, you gg, IMO. Evil Geniuses and their sponsors should be ashamed, slap his fingers for disrespecting the greatest gamer of all times. Boxer's never been anything except extremely well mannered, no reason to be an ass to him.

Still a fan though, but hopefully he keeps his childish attitude for small-times players... That's what I like

Boxer is not what he was in BW in Starcraft 2 now. He is not some sort of god and shouldnt get any more respect the any other pro gamer.Your making a big deal out of nothing at all.

I'm betting that IdrA and Kas make it out of their group. I haven't heard much from sase though.

You've got to have a huge ego for not gg'ing against BoxeR. This shows Idra ranks himself pretty high up there, to think that he can show no sportsmanship to the man who's won multiple championships and made esports what it is today.

Not saying who's right and who's wrong, he can do whatever he wants. For all we know Idra might actually be "big" enough, judging by his fan base.

You're*

Boxer's an old guy who spanked IdrA and could do it again because our little zerg is emotionally unstable and obviously disturbed. You don't get that BM unless you're seriously shaken up! (Which is awesome)

Of course he's not what he was when he was a youngling, in fact IdrA is almost certainly the better player. However, the Emperor or Terran is still damn good for an old guy who's well past his prime, and deserves respect anyway because in the end, he's an icon of "e-sports". He doesn't deserve respect only based on his current skill, though he's actually not bad at all... He deserves respect because you don't dismiss a legend because he's too old to fight... (Even less so after the old man snaps your neck while you're at your peak)

If IdrA ever manages to accomplish anything (and he hasn't), there's still going to be a point where he'll be too old to play and he'll have to find another way to earn his money.

Unfortunately, he'll probably have to go back to school or whatever - but even then, it'll be important to remember that in the past, he was a baller.

IdrA gg's if he feels it was a good game. The early rushes are rarely good games in his book, so he doesn't gg. I'm surprised people don't grasp this by now.

I don't know any pro who thinks that going from his late teens to early 20s or early 20s to late-mid 20s has caused some kind of physical decline that has lowered his ability.

I think if Boxer dedicated himself to being a pro gamer instead of a coach, he would find himself at least in if not on top of the top 5 Terrans list in the world.
