Its twice as easy to imagine seeing as he did exactly that earlier in the day. Also, I would like to note that right now Idra only has 1500 viewers compared to his usual 7-8k, with iNc havding a good 3500. I hope this trend continues. | ||

Man, I'd rather watch InControl and Machine play warhammer silently in the background of the EG house than watch a guy 6-pooling in a showmatch. They could be 50 fett away from the webcam, At least they'd doing something they give a shit about. | ||

EG is not happy obviously.. IdrA knows this is wrong and it's being dealt with. NASL hasn't called for an apology nor has Fnatic. This is NOT the same as the Naniwa situation for obvious reasons.. it's bad, nobody would say otherwise but it is nowhere near what Naniwa did. Dude, keep this in-house. Unless EG intends this to be an official statement, you're better off ignoring this crap and not commenting on internal actions. | ||

He didn't say much which needs to be kept in-house but it is sad Incontrol had to come into the thread and clarify that EG is in fact not happy with him and Idra himself knows it was a dick move. That should be common sense but looking through this thread its not. Alex the owner of EG once said in a blog how he had to have a sit down with Idra after the TL-open rage quit, so I think it's fine for Incontrol to shed some light on the situation | ||

He's allowed rage if he wants. Kind-of dissapointed the games ended so early but meh its not like its the last games we will ever see him play just hopefully the trend doesn't continue. Would like to see longer games next time he plays. XD | ||

XD Ya except for he did it blindly two games in a row, with no metagaming to be seen, and no prior 2 rax knowledge to back it up, unlike games (I think in MLG Winter Arena Quals) between Lucky and MMA, where MMA was almost guaranteed to 2 rax based on history and map. | ||

Agreeing with Grantiere here Inc. I know you're loyal to your friends and you're trying to defend Idra but let the PR guys handle this. I know debating was (is?) a major focal in your life but I feel you've always lacked the right vocabulary at times. | ||

Both situations ARE very similar and in IdrA's case possibly worse since he still had a shot to "win" the showmatch. Atleast in NaNi's series he had already been mathematically eliminated. This is way worse for me. It was a showmatch with only 2 players invited. Throwing games is just a disrespect to everyone watching it and to everyone who made it happen. It's way worse than throwing a pointless game in a tournament. | ||

the sad part is that as longa s Idra acts like a idiot he will always be invited and stay in esports. It was a long time since Idra was even close to be a top sc2 players, even outside korea but still people consider him like top 2. | ||

So far it seems its not even treated equally, why when Idra does something bad its considered a kid's prank that everyone should overlook (agaaaaiiin). I am a specially dissapointed in NASL, ONOG punished Stephano's reputation severely for his "mistake", i hope NASL will make a statement that will be good enough for a community news highlight on TL. Everyone needs to see this case, for the matter of fairness to Stephano and Naniwa, we cant have people in industry who are free to do anything without consequences. | ||

Started with the last 30 pages and then went back to see what people typed after the first 6 pool and then what they typed after the second. That video is popped up and I couldn't stop laughing. Thank you. Thank you. | ||

Idra needs serious help. Comparing what Naniwa and Idra did, of course these 3 minute show matches is way worse. A difference though is that Idra cant help it, and will do it again as soon as someone will attack him in thee first game in next tournament. Naniwa kind didn't think it through, he will never do it again. | ||
