Why would he when his opponent is willing to coin flip his way to victory? Cheese is good every once and a while, but three game shows that he only cares about an easy win. If Alive gets it, yay for him. I was pretty much done after the 3rd game, though.

So...

Hypotethical situation:

If you have watched 500 replays of your opponent going 3 nexus before gateway in every single ZvT, would you play:
A. A macro game

B. Allin while knowing there's no way he can hold it


If I see even one nexus in a ZvT I'll allin.
It's more important to be tough than to have any fun.

i'm really surprised people care THIS much. it's this many people caring that gives him the power to do this shit without feeling the consequences solely for himself--which would make him do it a lot less and likely change his attitude.

Gained some respect for Alive during this showmatch, at least. His defense in game 3 was cool and the "you sixpoll?" made me laugh. Other than that, though, I feel bad for NASL and for Alive for having to deal with this crap.

I don't think aLive will mind.

I feel for NASL though.

the sad thing is that despite idra being idra all you fanboys will watch his stream regardless so why should he give a shit?


watching doesn't mean you're a fan boy. ppl watch him to watch him fail.

idra's personality attracts this kind of negative attention.


These little dudes really like the blue stuff..

yeah, this is a great idea. if the games were pre-played there is really no excuse for putting the fans through this...we could have done with a 2-minute explanation instead of having to watch lings die outside a Terran wall. NASL seems to be pretending this was a "real series?


So NASL should pay two winners for one show match? Are you saying they should still pay the players and cancel the show match?

Really cool!


When he could have made more money coaching a bronze league player for one hour, yeah.


Then tell him to do that and not waste our time and aLive's time, this was absolutely disgraceful and i'm sure someone from E.G. will talk to him about this ridiculous attitude.
I'm not bad, I'm just incredibly good at sucking.

Everyone has to find a way to bring everything bad back on NASL. -.-

Though that would be an acceptable path for them to take, don't start any crap about NASL not doing their best with the content.

Well, it's for NASL's benefit too. Instead they're paying someone who really doesn't deserve it. And I agree, let aLive stay.

Are you blaming NASL because IdrA had a hissy fit? They announce the showmatch beforehand, how is it even slightly professional to start a broadcast with "oh, well IdrA vs aLive was shitty so we're going to show something else instead".

I swear to god NASL get accused of stuff that doesn't even come close to rational thought so often.

I can't believe none of the casters called that out for what it was. Khaldor trying to play it off as "does IdrA think this is going to give him a chance to win the game?" Bullshit.

That's not fair to aLive, he showed up and played legit games, he didn't make IdrA six pool. Now if they found another person instead of IdrA, that i'm fine with.

Yeah, of course. Alive gets the 500$ for the showmatch.
In addition he gets to play another legit one which is broadcasted.

I'd lose all respect for NASL if they just sat and took this as a professional organization who paid these players to show up and show good games. It's a god damn show match, you don't just show up and lose as fast as possible so you can collect your money and leave.
