but Idra never actually went for mech builds,
and judging from the commentators, a mech build would've helped him a lot

Finally got to watch the full series.

My thoughts? I'll keep it short so I don't get banned again for hating on IdrA.

Is anyone surprised? Honestly? I think everyone wanted to see IdrA rape F91 to finally prove that hard, dedicated, structured korean training could turn anyone into a all-kill machine. This series proved two things:

1) IdrA will never amount to anything because he has no respect. He has no respect for his opponent, no respect for the community that attempts to support him, and deep down, no respect for himself. And it shows in these games. I've read the excuses and they its laughable. IdrA got beat badly... straight up.

2) While we all want to believe that hard work pays off, this showed that natural talent and unique gameplay from F91 prevailed. Judging from the games, F91 didn't seem to have "exact" build orders or set strategies for every second of gameplay. He was playing how he taught himself how to play. And he almost effortlessly took commanding leads based on his builds and decision making in most of the games. This series made me sway to the other side of the spectrum that believes that the great players have very special qualities. It's the innate gift that some players have... and IdrA doesn't have it.

My only comment to IdrA is: do you realize how badly everyone wants to root for you? We desperately want to see a foreigner succeed. Hell, I hate your guts and even I wanted to see you wreck F91. If only I could somehow get you to understand how important respecting others is in life. If you showed good manner after the games, no one would care if you lost. If you actually typed in the full "gg" and said "I know I could have played better and I hope to show you exciting games in the near future" then hardly anyone would be flaming you. How can anyone here fault a guy for training so hard and not succeeding?

I honestly, from the bottom of my heart, believe that if you were more respectful, you would have more support from fans, get more support from teammates, and in turn would be a more successful progamer in Korea.

P.S. As usual, fantastic job with the quality of the production. Commentators were great, the technical staff was great, the hype and artwork was great. Cheers!

No one is going to change anyone by posting on this forum, some people need to learn from their own mistakes or let the mistakes be their downfall.

Congrats to F91.

Good luck to IdrA in the future and in Korea.
Peace~

Before watching this series, I practically did not know anything about IdrA. Infact, I in general usually do not watch any Foreigner SC games. But after watching this series, I have no reason to be an IdrA fan. The attitude he showed (I am not talking about the interview) during the games is precisely the reason why I dislike FireBatHero (although even FireBatHero writes a "gg"...).

Congratulations to F91. He won fair and square.

Hey. FBH doesn't make excuses for losing... when he wins he insults you, when he loses he just gg's and leaves.

And grats to F91, I really think the "half gg's" are gonna cause alot of IdrA fans to... turncoat o_o
