Yeah I agree entirely but first impressions are really hard to overcome and in most people's eyes, Inc is a second rate player and it's going to be really hard for him to overcome that.
YOU CAN DO IT INC.

HUK was the one being very BM here. There are rules not to talk in game. He talked. His comments were nothing more than throwing more sand in idras eyes after that loss. Didn't like huk before, certainly don't now.

I disagree, if my opponent in a series had just quit when he was ahead because of hallucination, in the next game I would definitely be like 'um...those weren't even units dude you were winning'.

It's because he is second rate, he brags about top 16 finishes in tournaments etc :S

So, the fact that you'd do it too makes it not bad mannered? What?

I really don't want to get into this whole 'how good is inc' argument, but there's no doubt that his group was weaker than the others, especially A and B. PU and Slush are both good, but not in the top tier of foreigners. TLO's been slumping hard for a pretty long while now. I don't know much about mihai tbh, but I doubt anyone would consider him a top foreigner either. They're all good, certainly and going 4-1 in this group's a great result (and better than I expected for inc), but if he wants to really prove himself, he'll have to put up a good showing against Select and the other players he'll be playing today.

HuK was trolling. IdrA got mad that another player was trolling him in-game.
What's worse?

Talking in games forbidden and Idra clearly knew so it's bad manners. He also said it really annoyingly using 'lol' etc.

Incontrol vs Select should be a good watch. Hopefully Selects beats him with the same tactic over and over again ^_^

For anyone confused about the bracket system. Allow me to explain in a fast, understandable fashion!
0) Although the "pool play" and "open bracket" occurred at the same time in the schedule, we're going to ignore that since it technically doesn't matter for the explanation!
--------------
1) An open bracket tournament begins as a gigantic double elimination tournament! The people who make it out of the open bracket are the "MEGA GOSUS" (undefeated) and the "LOWER FOLK" (battled through losers).
2) The championship pools are 5 player groups that consist of the best players from previous MLGs plus the MEGA GOSUS! These people duke it out to determine spots 1-5 in their groups.
3) Based upon the ranks from #2, a double elimination bracket is created! Everyone begins in the losers bracket EXCEPT the 1st player from each championship group! If you had a high rank in #2, you begin pretty far down the road in the losers bracket. If you had a low rank in #2, you have a ton of rounds to battle through to reach the finals.
4) Now that we have a loser's bracket, who's the first match? It's all the 5th ranked players from #2 vs the LOWER FOLK from #1.
You get a real sense of how important it is to do well in #2 when you look at the brackets:

Hey MLG I have a great idea to solve your sound problems for now.
Make the players play in what was the casting area (i.e away from everything) and have the casters up on the main stage. Crowd gets to see/hear the commentary and the players get an environment where they are able to completely concentrate on the game with no distractions.
Win-Win. Bi-winning even.

Errr no he doesn't, he's always said he's very disappointed with his MLG results thus far.
And he has Top 6 in this one.
