the more I follow the LRs lately the more I get a feeling that the sc2 community is becoming mainstream including all the bad habits to it ... Like flaming commentators from the arm chair general position and insulting others left and right. If I just look at different streams or fanclubs which are meant for the fans of those players where people get shitstorms off onto them. Reminds me alot of the CS "community" or bnet dota public games. Sad to see actually since I had a nice experience the past couple years on TL.net. | ||

Even mvp can not make up for the major problems terrans have late game. ehh, i personally do NOT think it is time to QQ about game balance, its time to figure out the meta game better  | ||

He probably still instinctively thinks make ghosts, but then realizes you make tons of vikings and hope they dont get hit with fungals. Or maybe the game is closer to balanced now, so that players of similar or better skill can beat mvp (more regularly) : ) | ||

Anyways, reading through this thread is like wading waste deep in shit with all the caster bashing and balance whining. When/where can I was the Idra-MC games, as they apparantly were already played? | ||

He also lost both series at MLG winter arena and went 0-3 in his group at Home Story Cup. He is still a great player, dont get me wrong, but he doesnt seem to playing at the same level he was last year. | ||

He probably can't go into an in-depth analysis like an actual pro-player could go, but to be honest - which commentator can? Some could and do, but those that come to mind actually play a good amount and sometimes are just pros themselves. TB is doing a great job, I really like his casting style. Some guys should really chill out a bit T_T; | ||

Idra gets so so much flack every time he 6pools to mix up his game, and people say he's on tilt. | ||

It doesn't matter if he can pull of pro strategies or that he is in silver because he probably cannot play mechanically clean, but he has seen so many games that he can comment on some stuff.

Some guys should really chill out a bit T_T; I agree with you for the most part, but just would be nice if he played the game more, I think it would make his casting better. On a more positive note though, really enjoying Apollo's casting these days. | ||

He doesn't "mix it up". When he cheeses like that he does it without any intention to actually win. See the recent showmatch (was it Golden or aLive? I can't remember) where he 6pooled twice in frustration which really had no chance of actually winning him the game. | ||

People are always forgeting him, but he won Dreamhack 2010 over TOP and Inca at a time where Inca was Code S and TOP was about to win Code A. | ||
