You must be new to the scene. The widespread consensus is that progamers peak in their early 20s. CJMuch was nicknamed "grandpa toss" because he was considered to be extremely old for a progamer when he was only 24 years old. For a progamer to continue experiencing success in their late 20s and early 30s is almost unheard of. The only examples I can think of are Nestea and Boxer.
"You must be new to the scene" automatically invalidates anything you say after it even if the person really is new to the scene. Who are you? Nobody? Okay then, you're not even in the scene.
Who should I believe, the widespread consensus of a bunch of non-pros, or the pros own words. HMMMM. I wonder.

Yeah, this is definitely the reason Idra didn't GG. Idra seems like a really nice guy and I guarantee you he has all the respect in the world for what Boxer is/has done for eSports. There wasn't likely any malice at all in him not GG'ing, it was 2 proxy racks rushes so I'm sure he just felt like they were poor games.

You're basically saying he doesn't have any integrity, imo, because sometimes he gg's when he loses badly. In GSL and in NASL, sometimes he's on a short leash.

whitera is married in his early 30s and together with naniwa the best protoss in europe :-)
games against boxer weren't gg's but i think he should have gg'ed, because boxer is always friendly, gave Idra the gracken hype and is just a legend in esports. Idra should show some sort of respect to the great gamers, even if they cheese him... idra should be able to defend a 2rax pressure imo

Lol don't get so salty. I'm not spouting the "consensus of a bunch of non-pros." It's the consensus, period. Pros or otherwise, just about everybody understands that progamers experience a physical decline in their reflexes after their early 20s.
I don't know where you're getting your information from, but there are no progamers who DON'T think that players in their early 30s are well past their prime.

I jot most of that down to the fact that there hasn't been progamers around for very long, the older progamers around today have been at it for ages, I reckon you'll see plenty of the people that are 21'ish now still be progamers when they're 26. It's too early to establish any kind of norm for such a young "sport".

There are a few exceptions, but most older players just can't do it. That's why there's so few people in their 30's who are still able to play. They're there, but yeah.

I'm not saying that older progamers can't compete. Even in Brood war, there are still players competing well into their late 20s at a high level. Back when he was still playing BW, Nada managed to do this. My only point here is that the vast majority of progamers DO experience a noticeable decline in their physical reflexes and mechanics past their early 20s.

Sure, Boxer has a ton of wins from the early 2000's. It is now 2011 and a entirely different game. Boxer is a great terran, but Idra is the more accomplished sc2 player.

Wow, you people are just retarded. Not typing GG isn't an indicator of anything. You can type it, but you don't have to, and you shouldn't give a shit, it wasn't you playing against him anyway.

WhiteRa is also pretty good.
IdrA seems to be in another bad mood atm. He loses too many games he souldn't lose in my opinon. IdrA gets bunker rushed on ladder so many times. Instead of trying amazingly hard to fall for such shit never again he just quits nearly every time.
If it's really true that idrA is just training four hours a day we can be glad to see what we see. He won't be able to do much better in future if he practices so litte. Hell....I have friends who play just for fun more than four hours a day.
I don't know if it's a lack of practice partners or just a lack of interest. If I look at team EG there seems to be nobody close to idrA. StrifeCro and Machine are by no means bad Zergs but they just don't play the godly ZvZ idra needs to develop against top Zergs like Sen, Zenio, losirA, Nestea, etc... Incontrol seems to abaddon the progamer job in favor for being a "starcraft person" like Day 9 and Axlsavs PvZ is mediocre at it's best. And for the Terran part...puhhh...Is lzGamer even in Grandmasters? Demuslim was a great terran for sure...but now he has a lot of catchup to do and I hope he gets back to being a top notch player. I'd really like to see Kiwikaki joining EG and get good friend with idra lol.
What is sad in my eyes is that idrA seems to lose his outstanding macro basis. He doesn't get worse but his opponents catch up. You know there were times where players cheesed a game of idra but in a real game......A REAL GAME...he would defeat them with ease. These real games sometimes never came but everybody was sure that he would defeat everybody IN A REAL GAME....and actually he did most of the time. But now idrA seems to lose far too many real games to be something like and unbeatable macro machine who beats everybody in A REAL GAME.

There are no good players in their late 20's in Brood War. A couple like Nada and Boxer were good until 24 or 25.

He leaves on ladder, because 2 bunkers on his ramp isn't something that can happen in a tourney. Theres no reason to play it out.
Boxer did a CHEESE, not a PRESSURE. 2 rax bunker on ramp is a pressure on ladder, it requires no luck to pull off. Boxer did a build that would of failed MISERABLY if idras drone saw the 2rax 20 seconds earlier. He rolled the dice idra wouldn't see it and it worked. That's what a real cheese is, a gamble to get you a lead. In the second game, he cheesed AGAIN, but idra found it and held it off, as well as the hellions. Boxer just had a good timing to attack from the choke with siege tanks 1 minute before brood lords were finished. If he had waited even 30 seconds more, IdrA would have 6-7 brood lords during that big attack and would have EASILY held it. It was a close game.
If it's really true that idrA is just training four hours a day we can be glad to see what we see. He won't be able to do much better in future if he practices so litte. Hell....I have friends who play just for fun more than four hours a day.

Lack of interest probably. Not in the game, but in his methods (ladder is probably annoying/boring) He can't practice on ladder. He has like a 70% win rate and 20% of those loses are 2 bunkers on his ramp, which again, cannot happen in tourneys. People snipe him and only when he hits an actually decent player like Minigun or SeleCT does he get any real practice.
EG is supposedly (hopefully) making a practice house where he will be able to practice with the team a lot more in customs. I wish Kiwi would join them as well....

That's to be expected. NesTea is starting to lose games as well. IdrA was better than most of the foreigners for months, and a few are catching up. NesTea was better than all the koreans for a few months, and not a few are catching up. This is just how competition works. It's way way way harder for a good player like Idra and Naniwa and Thorzain to improve than it is for others, they have hit peaks. The only way for them to get better at this point is 6-10 hours of practice in a team house like the koreans do it, but it's going to be a while before we reach that point I fear...

You did notice that Boxer had a CC making in both of those games while he was 2raxing? What you fail to understand is the build Boxer did twice is a preasure build, which has potential to do more damage if not scouted, doesn't depend on it being unexpected to do anything, forced 2 extra lings and some mining time? Good enough, lift off and go back home where his CC was ready.
The only thing that makes every IdrA fan so butthurt is that he actualy lost to this, and like bulls, you only see red. Take a look at the Sen vs Boxer games to see how easy defending that actualy is.
Edited in for added clarity, I use the term fanboy as a negative description of people who follow him blindly enough to bash The Emperor himself, while the rest of us, fans, cheer him on for whatever reason we have.

And, before I get a bunch of retarded replies - I am not comparing Idra's SC2 accomplishments to Boxer's SC:BW success. I am merely pointing out that Idra's SC2 career has been the most impressive out of all foreigners so far, so if you're saying that he has achieved nothing, then you are basically saying that the non-Korean scene is nothing.

This is SC2. The mechanics aren't nearly as demanding, so older plays can still be very successful. Age is hardly a factor in SC2. For now anyway. When the game develops enough, maybe mechanics will be everything.

If I feel like I've played badly I don't gg, because it wasn't a gg. It was half a gg. I didn't hold up my end. Or, if the other player cheeses or rushes or whatever, it's probably not a good game either. He didn't hold up his end. You give him too much credit. He also doesn't gg when he's pissed. You're basically saying he doesn't have any integrity, imo, because sometimes he gg's when he loses badly. In GSL and in NASL, sometimes he's on a short leash.
I like how you can read IdrA's mind to know when he is pissed or not. I cannot recall a game that he didn't GG because he was mad. Everytime I see no GG from IdrA, it was because he thought it wasn't a good game.
I can't believe people are over analyzing not GG'ing vs Boxer so fucking much. IdrA didn't think they were good games. He did not GG. It is not that hard to comprehend.
