MLG idra edition, watching idra play random americans for 2 days now...
When is an actual MLG starting? the one i watched every other time and actually saw top players from day 1


Championship Sunday AFAIK. MLG has allways been the least interesting tournament to follow during the early stages, double elimination to blame for a lot of it TBH. I'd rather see a round-robin BO5's with no need for 2x elim

I would argue DreamHack has a worse Day 1.

Yeah, but dreamhack makes up for it with free 720p and great production

MLG's production is superior to DreamHack's, with the exception of the last few hours of the tournament.


I totally disagree, at one point MLG was the shittiest tournament to ever be organized on the face of the planet and crappy production was the main cause for it

Idd, MLG is a good tournament by American standards, but the production isn't up to par with GSL/DH/ROG. They usually have great players attending though, which kind of makes up for the rest.

Idra on both free streams vs some random nerd and Taeja vs Crank and Alicia vs Leenock on premium.


MLG might aswell be honest and make ik pay per view again. They are crapping all over e-sports like this.

From TLPD, this MLG has 4 of the top 10, and then next player (Ryung) is ranked 31. Very very few of the top players -_-

IdrA actually playing really strong now - or Icecream just terrible?

Are you sure they weren't calling him TheBestFou?

Artosis says a lot of stuff. Remember when Major was going to be the next terran bonjwa?

Weird because Greg backed him up on it and said it was a pity no one globally knew about it.

wait greg agreed that he was the best in the world? that proves everything, im a faster swimmer than Phelps


go watch king of the beta

idra was arguably the best before release,
im not a fanboy, and think he has fell quite far. BUT he was king at one point, everybody was scared of him

nobody ever won an MIT laptop from EG's tournament to this day ( is now a teamleague, it was a solo league before that and greg was the end boss, never lost)

would be nice to see that idra again, but i think its long past, glad for his performances today though


TesteR says hi. Also Genius, TOP, RainbOw, FruitDealer. Hell even White-Ra beat IdrA convincingly back then.

I think IdrA can 2-0 IceCream if it goes to late game though. He's definitely not looking very strong in TvZ (IceCream that is)


He beat Tester in the finals of King of the beta (and Tester was considered to be the best korean at the time). The others you mentioned except fruitdealer made their names after release. Whether you are an Idra hater or not, it is a fact that Idra was considered by many, including Koreans, to be the best player in the world from the beta until a few months after release. There's actually nothing to argue about because it's true.


woot somebody else who actually remembers


I do remember. That was one tournament. There are others where he lost to TesteR and White-Ra quite convincingly. And I disagree with the fact that they made their names after release. You clearly didn't watch enough starcraft 2 mister hitpoint, TOP, TheStC, Cella, Genius, TheWinD were some of the best players in the world at that time.


They weren't considered the very best though. If you said Maka I'd agree, but you didn't. Tester was the other guy that people made arguments for being the best, and Idra got the better of whitera overall, he wasn't considered better. King of the Beta was just one tournament, but it was the biggest and best tournament at the time. Winning that was easily enough to make an argument for best in the world, and it did.


he also has never let a peson win the laptop that was the prize for 'beating the gracken' in EG's solo league
which i mentioned, which was 'many' tournaments. i just dont know why peopel shit on his past, its like hitting a
guy while he is down
I am become death, for I am the destroyer of worlds.....You will be missed KT Violet!!!

Taeja isn't taking it seriously.
I should know I'm taeja's BFF and understand how he's thinking in every tournament.
