It's actually funny watching him "teach", sure he knows what he's talking about, but, well, He's like a teacher that has a masters from yale, but never interacts with the students and says "listen to me, I'm a genius, NO QUESTIONS."


Although, as a complaint, I REALLY think you should upload higher quality videos. They kind of look ugly the way they are now.

Cool idea and initiative. But the ads are too aggressive and there are too many of them Also, no HD ? Or Youtube is encoding them ?
Hope it gets improved soon, keep it up !

1. its free
2. quality is fine

He's still allowed criticism even if it's free. Welcome to the internet where almost everything is free, especially web-specific media. That doesn't mean we consumers can't complain. Our eyeballs and time is our payment and advertising is how the money comes in.

For example, people complained about Facebook's privacy policies. Were they warranted? After all, Facebook is free...

he didn't say you can't complain, just that he doesn't agree with the complaint (i don't either)

free with ads is not bad, you can skip the ones at the beginning & end

wow, something that makes me almost have respect for idra. i still feel his scouting needs work and the predictability of his play creates issues against observant opponents and somewhat boring (for me) to watch. but it's interesting to see his justification of his very map specific strategies.

if the ads bother you they're extremely easy to skip by scrolling forward, and if you care that much about the quality of the vids, i'm pretty sure you can find most of these matches elsewhere and maybe synch up and sub in that video on mute (though you'll likely need to subscribe to various tournament casts). i'd be very surprised if idra loses any of these anyway.

He is.


That probably explains it. Probably.

Awesome! I saw one of these videos a while back but had forgotten about them. I'm just getting back into playing SC2 after 2.5 months off, so this should really help. I'm definitely rusty.

Love the videos! Very well-produced and professional. Great strategy + tactics explanation. I like the detail he goes into with what to deduce from limited scouting information.

Only improvement would be if he could remove fog (have full vision of the map) while Idra is explaining the map overview as the game starts as I'm not that familiar with all the maps yet, and it's a bit hard for me to see/figure out exactly what he's pointing at sometimes.

Also, maybe using some of the replay hotkeys (production, army, supply, harvesters, etc) would help to explain his point better about how is economy is dominating or how he has more units but not a critical mass yet, for example. It's very pro how he can remember everything, but might be easier to follow if we can see production all the time .

The videos get this awkward atmosphere with that ugly green screen, bad editing when IdrA is finishing a sentence and staring straight into the camera like 1 or 2 seconds before the cut. Also, the music is annoying crap.

But the cause of these videos is really good tho, but It can be improved so much. It's kinda wierd how EG have been doing this type of videos for at least 2 years but in CS 1.6 and they look exactly the same without any improvements at all. :O

If you listen very carefully you hear a slightly louder start at the sentences he makes every now and then, from this information you can indicate if he is happy.

Very nice, I've seen most of these already, but its always great to look back on some great feedback from the internets favourite kraken.

I found all of these vids very helpful. Thanks for sharing. I knew about a few but didn't know there were so many.

IdrA plays zerg, he loses when he cheeses because of 1 marine. Where have you been lately?
