If you could measure social skills on a scale from 0 to 10, Idra would get minus 3. | ||

Something needs to be cut out of that and he cut the raven (and forgot siege mode). You can afford tanks, siege, 2 banshees, a raven and marines. Once you have those you can't quite afford constant raven/banshee and tank production. Raven, siege, no cloak, banshee is imo the best variation (vikings if they go pheonix), but I'd like to see no siege, tank, banshee, viking, cloak and raven as a variation. I don't know of its affordable, but the cloaked banshees would destroy if the observer gets sniped. | ||

I'm sure you're the only person to have thought of that.. Really, he's a foreigner whose native tongue isn't english. Put on a stage in front of many people and asked an awkward question with limited time to answer. Give him a break. Is that so tough? | ||

Its more about positioning, cooldowns and crowdcontrol which isnt really shown too well on the stream UI. | ||

Our education system when it comes to teaching different languages must just be trash compared to theirs. Come on guys. WhiteRa's English is much worse than naniwa's, yet he handles interviews fine. Naniwa spouts the first thi ng that enters his mind, he's missing the filter. There's nothing qwrong with being honest, but there are times when some finess is necessary. naniwa is missing the finesse. Thats all. | ||

There, done. Don't need to be a genius, just some :"Social Skills" That's media training for ya, and usually this ends up in creating generic answers (fe. in interviews with football players after a match). which makes it boring. i like it just the way eSports are now, not too strict yet, players' personalities shine through in their interviews. I do favour the likeability of Tarson, White-Ra, Dimaga and Strelok, but i can also appreciate the bold and straight answers of the likes of IdrA and Naniwa. | ||

On the spot, in a foreign language, right after an important match, in front of a crowd? Yes, that can be though for some people, doesnt mean he has poor social skills. | ||
