We will be moderating harshly in this thread. Think twice before you post. Things we are watching for: image macros, balance whining, "eagles", player bashing etc. We encourage civil and reasoned critique of our moderation - please post it in the website feedback forum.
Please don't complain about MLG stream quality or MLG itself. They work very hard to provide you with an enjoyable service.
Enough with the racism discussions, this is a LR Thread. Cut it out. -- updated 7:55 KST |

Yeah this is all true, but that doesn't justify him preemptively leaving... Any other zerg in the world would have stayed and played it out, don't defend his actions. And then you have people like Tyler, who doesn't GG after his allin has failed and he knows he's down a base and supply (of which his opponent has double) Not everyone wants to be hated for having Fantasy GG timing. Because clearly Idra cares about what people think of him trollface.jpg
lol who the fuck cares about being hated for having a bad gg timing. id rather have late gg timing than to ever lose a game that i possibly could have won

How come Idra trending in USA Twitter but not MLG?

Idra had seen the third being built at the gold with his mutas.... He can put 2 and 2 together.
Regardless, he left based on things he thought he knew. He left assuming he was way behind when he had no idea. If anyone actually thinks he had any reason to gg then they're insane.

Slayers_Cella, the coach of Slayers, is a popular streamer here on TL. One of his catch phrases is Holy Check, in reference to CheckPrime, another Korean Zerg player who was crushing heads in the Beta. MMA got the phrase from Cella and is talking to his foreigner fans.

Would be hilarious if Thorzain wins then Idra has to play Thorzain down 0-2 ROFl

IdrA and Thorzain. IdrA is still ahead of Thorzain in the brackets, but if Thorzain beats MC he'll have a big advantage vs IdrA. If MC beats Thorzain, MC will have a big disadvantage vs IdrA.

In cella's stream today, cella said that MMA asked him what ceremony he should do. So I'm guesing, Cella told mma to do the "holy check" and Kamehameha

Idra was still 4-1 in the lead of his group, while Thorzain was 3-2

I hope idra goes to the finals and beats MMA properly :3
he has the macro, the micro and the mechanics... if incontrol beats some sense into him it may happen, though i feel idra is mentally finished for this weekend.

IdrA will rage retire in no time. That was epic.

And that is why you don't leave game when you don't even know who is winning. Not to mention Idra was up 15 supply when he left so either way he couldn't have thought it was completely over.
No reason to try and defend him leaving that game. It was retarded by all standards.

Anyone else having this thought of Idra grinning thinking," Huh,take that MMA,I'm faster than you!''
That was actually really funny!  In other news: I'm really sad for Idra's sake.
