Okay we're going to start cracking down on people bashing players for no reason. You don't have to like every player, but at least show some respect. (as of page 402) |

not to mention the fact that matches can be decided by random factors which has absoluteley no place in esports at all

What's the next scheduled streamed match?

I cant find any of them in the Open loosers bracket. Are they out completely? Since everything is double elim, I would assume they get another shot at it. So, whats up?
They skip Loser's Bracket, each of them will play one of the top 4 players in the Loser's Bracket, then from then on, the winners of those matches will play 6th place in pool, then 5th, etc. etc.

WoW arena tournaments don't happen anymore do they? There was a bunch of drama involving the time limit of the grand finals of the last MLG wow tournament. One team got a kill on the other that would've won the tournament, but it happened technically about 5 seconds after the end of the time limit of the game (when there was no clock displayed for anyone to see - just the referee's watch).
That was Blizzcon. Complexity Red vs Enigmz

The record for NA and Euro Terrans in group play is: 25W - 52L. Thats 32%.
The record for NA Terrans is 10W - 35L 22%
MMA the lone Korean Terran is 8-1
Anyone else notice this?
Side note, Toss is 25 - 31 47% Zerg is 49 - 28 64%
Any ideas why Non-Korean Terrans are falling behind, especially NA Terrans?
Terran requires really good Micro and thats hard as NA/EU Player without the speed/apm of Koreans.

GJ TL. The interview came after idra gave him the finger. And yeah, right, that ceremony motion MC always does is definitely on the same level as point blank giving someone the finger. Idra needs to grow up as well as all these kids cheering him on for it. I think people like you who are sensitive to it need to grow up lol. It's not about being sensitive to the finger. It's the mere fact that Idra is so socially inept his only response to a friendly gesture of challenge is one of vulgarity. No one here has never seen the finger before. But if this was a verbal exchange it'd be: MC: "Come at me." Idra: "**** YOU, ******!" Basically Idra has no class or sense of humor.
hahahahaha. OK idra is actually quite professional and mature. He's just no fluff and says it like it is....

......like this guy rivality is cool Idra actually has no rivalry with Morrow he just said something back when he felt Morrow won solely because of his race but he said Morrow has come into Zerg and is pretty good with it. There is. He's been talking shit about Morrow since Brood War. Just because you don't hear about it anymore doesn't mean it doesn't exist. And with Idra, even when he says you're pretty good or that he's worried about you, it doesn't mean he respects the player. Idra is a little two-faced there. When he does game commentary (EG masters) or analysis he speaks respectfully even of players he doesn't consider very good. In the forums or even ingame, it's a totally different story. (He also said after Morrow's switch that he'd never use the term "imbalance" again if Morrow ever wins a priced tournament as zerg...) You know that IdrA represents the companies that bring him when he casts, right? And that he shouldn't be biased, and knows he shouldn't be biased? Whatever. What you see as two-faced is what I see as professional. lmao explain how flipping the birdies is professional? i like idra but i dont think such gestures are professional. How did you mix that up? I specifically mentioned when he casts. He's clearly capable of being professional when the setting requires it.
Outside of any "hired" situation, he can just act like himself. If you chooses to give someone the finger there, then no, I don't think it affects his professionalism at all. His sportsmanship maybe, but certainly not his professionalism.

It is neither creative nor exciting to see a short guy giving someone the finger. Someone didn't read his TSL interview. Personality is irrelevant this isn't a dating website. Missing the point... Idra would not be getting flack from as many people (obviously there would still be some people hating on him because of his chronic unfounded balance whine and overall immature disposition) if he responded to MC's taunt with something similar rather than with a "gee I don't know what to do in this situation" middle finger.
I agree. Idra should have done an interpretive dance to clearly illustrate how he is going to take down MC if they so meet again.
