They have 12k between the streams and i'm sure there is overlap, unless the numbers being generated are wrong. | ||

He called ret really good, probably because he's another zerg like him that enjoys making drones. He even called NesTea bad. Hmm, I'm not an IdrA fan..but the anti-IdrA people are just band-wagoning because he's playing terrible right now (which he even freely admits) and yeah, me joining this discussion probably isn't wise and feeds into the IdrA rule. MaNa was simply a mid to highish level EU protoss after he took down the surprise Assembly 2nd finish in Winter, after January's Homestory he had very mediocre showings for at least 6 months before the next Assembly where he made another surprise out of nowhere. Even with his big wins right now, his PvZ is still under 50% winrate, his overall SC2 record is only just hitting 56% with this big momentum upswing (generally the true EU heavyweights are extremely close at 60% or higher). MaNa right now, is amazing. In context, he's been ok at best in the past - like a Protoss Tarson, someone who can take games off champions, but is never expected to do exceptionally well or win big. Last point...people need to stop quoting ancient IdrA comments. He called Nestea bad when he won GSL2..that's fall of 2010. Most pros were laughing at that season and couldn't grasp why Nestea won it - only Artosis was really defending Nestea (look at interviews etc). When IdrA said "zerg isn't supposed to beat protoss", although it hinted at true Idra whining, he said it because MC was trolling him with "are you angry?" - troll for a troll. Lot of people have short memory. | ||

They just have a direct link on the frontpage of their client... people need to click on it to watch it on a normal webpage. so it are real numbers. real stupid to say such things without knowing shit. | ||

And? Say a bunch of players are terrible, they get good or even a lot better then yourself and ''retract'' your statement... so stupid... but guess it fits. | ||

I've seen 2 games so far... +1, any Americans who went out last night for some drinks pretty much only woke up to hear about the results. Rebroadcast would be nice. | ||

Lot of people have short memory. I'm not bandwagoning at all, It's just fact that he calls nearly all players bad or "protoss", which is his standard response when artosis asks him what he thinks of certain protoss players  You're saying he only said "Zerg isn't supposed to beat protoss" only because MC baited him, when he's said it a thousand other times :S | ||
