Give me a freaking break. Alive exploited IdrA's weaknesses, and IdrA got mad and threw a fit. Stop defending him and actually acknowledge that he has a pitiful attitude Idra allins he throws the game. Alive allins ? It's fine. I don't agree with Idra's decisions and temper, but please can you at least be a bit impartial? They both worked pretty hard to make these 4 games suck as much as possible for the viewers. They should BOTH be ashamed. Why should alive be ashamed, he did a strategy which has a really high win % against idra. Alive is playing to win, same cant be said about idra in thoes last 2 games.....
My argument is that it's ok to "play to win" in a high stake match. In a SHOWMATCH you play to entertain. Not really to get a sure easy win. In a viewer point of view it's as bad to see two cheese in a row from aLive than it is to see two 6P in a row from alive: it makes silly games not entertaining.
I'm the first to say it's ok to cheese in a BoX in a tournament. But why do it in a showmatch? To showcase how bad Idra is with cheese? Newsflash : we already know.

Sorry for being out of the loop, but what did idra do to get all the hate?
+ Show Spoiler +Game 1 he died to 11-11 rax. Game 2 he player retardedly greedy and died to double reactored hellions. Game 3 he 6 pooled, Alive proxy raxed and defended incredibly well, Idra lost. Game 4 Idra 6 pools, Alive calls him on it (saying "u sixpoll?"), Idra easily died.

uh he played really bad and was perceived to be upset so he essentially threw 2 games by 6pooling

This result wasn't surprising at all, consider how damn well aLive is playing lately. But damn Idra is really slumping lately.

You can only rely on pure macro for so long.
Idra is playing styles that were outdated before SCII even released.
And he probably has never heard of microing.

acting like a dick for 4+ years

30 minutes until the rebroadcast. Judging from this threat, I have to watch it.

Maybe Idra approached things from a time standpoint. 100 bucks for 30 minutes is pretty damn cost efficient if you ask me.
/factious.

Why wouldent they re-broadcast this? They always re-broadcast. Just because you don't want to see your favourite player losing like a scrub

This is the definitely the worst Bo7 I've ever seen, and I think that's a pretty widespread view. I can see an argument for not re-broadcasting such a low quality contest. Then again, I think they'll get a ton of viewers just based off the fact that they have heard about how bad it was and want to witness it first hand.

lol :D
seriously, I want to like EG, but as long as this dude is on their payroll I root against them in everything. And that's too bad because I really like demuslim and iNcontroL, I just can't support them until they get rid of this BM scrub.

Can't wait to see IdrA plays at MLG. He does stupid shit like this showmatch online but we still aren't sure where his skill level at. He does very good when he mass ladder but again we never know what will happens to him in the next LAN.
Still a bad move on his part to double 6 pool. He will probably hear from it from EG.

No need to wait guys...vod here:

Start of the showmatch cast, just skip forward to see the games. OP - put in a link?
Game 3&4 are worth watching, IMO. Game 3 for a legit and creative terran counter to 6pool, Game 4 for the "u sixpoll" lulz. Honestly, just watch it for the Sheth/Khaldor mannerbear attempt to salvage the cast.
