TT1 says Idra doesn't deserve anything he has, but of course he doesn't know what he's talking about. Idra practiced 12 hours a day for two years to get to the level of top foreigner in BW, and that effort also paid off by making him the top foreigner in SC2 when it came out. He still hasn't relinquished that title. Ok, thats a bit of a stretch. Jinro has been more successful in Korea, and I can think of several players I would take over Idra in a BoX, Naniwa/Thorzain/ect. Idra is top tier. But he is by no means the dominant foreigner or even the undisputed best foreigner. He said "top foreigner in sc2 when it came out" He said "still hasn't relinquished that title" Hate to break it to you, but he has relinquished that title.
Well it's certainly debatable, and his recent results have been pretty strong.

TT1 trolling you all is hilarious.
Also Idra not GGing is just bad man. Respect the goddamn Emperor.

Still looks like a twig to me.
Go compare a GSL Open Interview to an MLG Columbus interview.

Fanboys are critical for any competition. Players/teams having devoted fans are what makes sports/ESPORTS great. You gotta have the emotion and blind faith that what you support is the best.
But, the simple fact is: Idra got outplayed twice by BoxeR. BoxeR did nothing wrong in doing everything he could to win, as that's what he is supposed to do. Idra unsurprisingly was a little rude in not giving a gg to BoxeR; who arguably deserves more respect than anyone in the ESPORTS world.
Idra was rude. Everyone knows that, but his fans will never agree. We have a genuine sporting competition environment. How exciting.
Next Stop: Idra is a total jackass/white knight bar fights

I meant you're wrong about KiWiKaKi apparently hating on IdrA because he lost against him in IPL. That's OBVIOUSLY why, right?

This thread has taken a turn for the worse. Idra doesn't gg unless it is in fact a good game to play. It is his own right to do and say what he does in a game and he should not be bashed for his decision on a live report thread. I must politely disagree with you on that. Traditionally the "gg" (I speak for BW as well as SC2) is a pillar of StarCraft manner, and if he deviates from it the community should have a right to say something about it. Maybe not do anything about it, but say something. Agreed, its not like anyone thinks that a game they lost is a good game to play for the most part (at least someone like idra who is usually quite bitter about losing) Also the fact that he GG'd everyone else in the NASL (except maybe zenio didnt see those) and then doesnt GG boxer is pretty disrespectful, why is he singling out boxer to be bad mannered too. Maybe he isn't trying to BM Boxer. Boxer did a double proxy barracks in both games. Anyone would have a bad taste in their mouths after that. There are games that you simply just don't say GG to after you lose. I believe everyone has left a game once without saying GG because of the play of the other player. Thanks for the comment and thanks for being reasonable. I agree with you there, of course he wasn't trying to BM BoxeR. I don't think IdrA is innately malicious toward anyone he BM's. But not GGing toward someone who deserves a great deal of respect is a bit off-putting. so is unsolicited pandering... if it's not a good game, why should he say it is. Because gg'ing doesn't literally mean you're saying its a good game, its just custom to show sportsmanship. Koreans come from a BW tradition where out of tens of thousands of progames there has ALWAYS been a gg or ww or some variation of it. Even in sc2 IdrA is the only top pro to regularly not gg. He is a longtime sc2/bw pro and he knows its significance. And he definitely knows the significance of not gg'ing to the person responsible for professional starcraft.
This is all true, and I found it rude of Idra not to gg, but I also found it typical and laughable, which as a viewer, I'm sort of okay with. But respect BoxeR please Idra. You can have your little moments with Zeno and Cruncher or TT1, but what's BoxeR ever done besides increase your popularity with the "Grack" thing?

This just proves you have no idea what you are talking about. In Korean starcraft, a gg is the equivalent of a handshake. To not gg after a match is the same as spitting on someone as they extend their hand to shake yours or screaming obscenities at them after you lose.
Idra was a part of the Korean scene for years. He knows the culture. He has no excuse.

well guys i really dont understand you even boxer care less than you about that no gg thingy (its absolutely childish and disrespectful but everyone knows what is coming anyways)
and you for the fanboys! why raging pll dont like idra, instead of idra himself giving you 2 lousy games.

I'm no longer even sure how one becomes a fanboy of a guy like IdrA. Are these the kind of people who watch day time soap opera and are totally gripped by its compelling drama?
It's fine to defend his play-style and skills as he is obviously a skilled player, but what justifies defending his bad manner, claiming manner is not compulsary? Is it not the proper behaviour for sportsmen to shake the hands of their competitor after the match, regardless of the results?
The "gg" is the equivalent of the handshake, and while it may not be compulsary, it's understandable that it becomes the point of discussion if a player - losing or otherwise - refuses it. Making patronising comments about other people making a big deal about this only serves to show your true colour as a rabid Idra fanboy.
So you insult the people that you think are so inflammatory and think you have some kind of ethical or moral high ground here?

you are pretty delusional sir if you think milkis corrected that ALL by himself, you know not the awesome MLG that they just happened to be at or anything with fans cheering their hearts out for the koreans and even chanting their names at multiple times.

Imagine a baseball game. An opponent pitcher goes out and tries to hit one of your players with the ball intentionally. What is expected? The next time you are up to pitch, you will most likely try to hit one of the opposing teams batters. Boxer cheese, Idra didn't GG. Emperor or not, Idra can get ticked if he wants.

Idra fanboys are by far the most annoying thing about this site. You wouldn't notice Idra fans unless the Anti-fans come out and start swinging. If no one went on about the GG thing or TT1 trying to be relevant this thread would've fizzled out after the broadcast.
It probably would have still degenerated into a zerg UP / Boxer cheesy shitfest. All idra threads end up on some parallel universe, even the fanclub / idra gf threads. Hell, even threads that have nothing to to with him somehow end up being about him. His presence is like that dark blob in 5th Element - ever expanding, all-devouring.
