I think the real tragedy in all of this is that the childish disrespect for avilo has covered up the fact that IdrA actually admitted the matchup is broke. Aside from straight out saying it, he also acknowledges it with several other points such as saying don't bother trying to stop creep because you can't and just let zerg get its super army and deal with it. Have a few ravens hanging around early building up energy and build starports you won't actually use right away just so you'll be ready to get 20 vikings when the BroodLords show up and let's not talk about what happens when you're left with half of them and the next wave of Zerg lings, roaches, and/or ultras show up.

That's not at all what Idra said. Stop trying to pull an avilo.


Right here at 45m

IdrA says the game is poorly designed and it makes for boring games but except in a small subset of occasions he advises Terrans to turtle, give up on trying to contain creep (and then don't go on creep), and wait for the Zerg super army to show up.

That is a broken matchup.

I think to clarify, Idra says to give up on containing creep in the early game because it requires too much resources and there would be enough queens to replace missing tumors anyway.

And to be specific, he said to not push on creep as it's generally a bad idea. That's why he advises for Terrans to go heavy Bio so they can harass Zerg's economy and split up Zerg's army so they can clean up that creep later on in the game.

I had never even heard of Avilo before this show. And telling a person to shut the fuck up in a debate, no matter how bad one party is doing, is both bad mannered and immature. Also i play protoss, not terran. I have a problem with this kind of behaviour, nothing else.

If you look at it as a debate from equals then that is true. And if Idra said to QXC at any point to shut the fuck up I would also be here holding a pitchfork or a torch but to Avilo?! Did you listen to him at all?
As I said, it was like when a teacher who obviously knows much more then you tries to teach you something and you start acting like he knows shit and you should teach him what did you expect?!
Has never in your schooling years a teacher told one of his students to Shut up?


Well idra isn't his teacher, nor is a top player. And i actually do consider all human beings to be equal. Strange thought, i know.


IdrA IS a top player. Especially if you compare him to Avilo. The difference in not only but skill but also (and most importantly) experience is huge. If an amateur tries to argue with an expert, it's going to be a waste of everyone's time (except for novelty/entertainment value, which is the reason he was brought on in the first place).


Well since ive never seen Avilo play i will agree that Idra is most likely alot better than him. But calling Idra a "top" player, is very very far from the truth. Sure, he was a top foreigner in BW, if not THE top foreigner. But not in sc2 mate.

im not an idra fan but id still consider him a top player hes had some great runs and great victories in sc2 and this is a nice little recap of those + Show Spoiler +



a highlight video rofl! you serious mate?

however someone also said top 5 foreign zergs . another hard laugh. maybe in the beta. now not at all go to liquipedia and take 5 of the 1XX zergs that are better than him and came further in like MLGs and so on, even tefel cane further in mlg than idra.

1. Stephano
2/3. Ret/IdrA
4. Dimaga
5. Sheth

Do you disagree?

Most non-idra fan boys would...... not to mention players such as Nerchio, Darkforce, Sen, Slivko, Livezerg, Lowely, Morrow, Bly and the rest who are better than him. You realize you just called a zerg with 25-30% win rate in 2012, the 2nd best foreign zerg.


Another connection between skill and win rate. People just don't learn, huh. WIN RATE DOESN'T REPRESENT SKILL!


Surprisingly enough, good players with actual results tend to have decent winrates, as in, above 50% at the very least. Stephano's winrate for 2012 is above 70%. Face it man, Idra hasn't been very good for the past 6 months. Your silly excuses won't change anything about this fact.

Wait, wait, people are grabbing pitchforks over that avilo interview? You guys fucking suck, that was NOTHING. The fuck is wrong with this community?

how was it nothing. In what professional shows have you ever heard of where they invite someone to talk down to him then follows by kicking him off the show? Do you have any regards to professionalism?

Incontrol and JP laughing constantly in the background while avilo talk is already unacceptable in itself. I don't care what sorry excuses they gave for that part, you should pay attention to your guest when they talk


What is "professional" about SOTG exactly ? It began as a grassroots community show and it still is, nobody is really paid for this (they don't even display any ads) and it's not part of their regular jobs.

Please stop using the word professionalism, you clearly don't know what it is.


you don't need to be paid or it needs to be part of a job for people to act professional. They don't have to act professionally, it is their show afterall. But there is nothing wrong with stating how unprofessional they conduct themselves over this episode



I agree... but the line needs to be drawn at some point when people insist on complaining over and over about it, and trying their best to blow it out of proportion. Avilo talked over IdrA, and IdrA told him to shut the fuck up and called him terrible at the game. Yeah, that's not professional. Yeah, that's not the best way to handle the situation. Still... it's not a big deal. Please stop treating it like one and please stop trying to victimize Avilo as if they all ganged up on him and spent the entire time throwing insults.

Idra insulting isn't what crossed the line, that's within viewers expectation. What really crossed the line was the constant background laughter, the pre-invitation bashing, incontrol's interruption, and hanging up on a guest. This whole situation would have not blown up like it did if they pay attention to what their guest is saying, or simply end the discussion and give a shoutout to avilo before hanging up on the call.

Hell, probably just saying something along the line of "this discussion isn't going anywhere, lets move on. Thanks for coming Avilo" would have completely averted this drama


Oh dear! They hung up on him! This is definitely worth arguing and complaining about!! Are you fucking kidding me?

I don't even remember Geoff interrupting other than to tell Avilo to give IdrA a chance to talk.

What was wrong with the background laughter? They were just laughing at the situation. Geoff always makes fun of IdrA getting angry very quickly. He even mentioned it before Avilo came on, so why does it matter if he then laughs when he sees IdrA getting frustrated?

You know what, you can ignore that last paragraph. Really? Background laughter? That's actually a big deal? I never saw anyone complain about all the other hundreds of times a host on a sc2 show has laughed in the background at someone (like iNcontroL with Semmler on the 2GD show as one example), but apparently it is a big deal now? Why?

As for the shit talking... yeah, they shouldn't have done it. Avilo also shouldn't have thrown insults last week either, which he did in this thread. Feel free to go through the pages if you are curious.

Ultimately, they threw insults at each other in the past, iNcontroL laughs in many situations, and was very likely just laughing at the situation, and then there was the dreaded hung up call!

Once again, not a big deal whatsoever.

Well, if you agree that they dont need to act professionally, then actually there is something wrong with you stating how they were unprofessional. Let me give you an analogy to illustrate why I say this. "Yeah, I know nobody is perfect, but let me just say bro, you are REALLY imperfect." Here's another one: "Person A: 'You didn't go to an Ivy League school." Person B: 'Why does that matter?' Person A: 'It doesn't but there's nothing wrong with me saying it.'" Or even this: "Mom: 'You don't have to clean your room today, Timmy.' Timmy: 'Ok thanks mom! <3' 2 Hours later: Mom: 'WHAT THE FUCK WHY DIDN'T YOU CLEAN YOUR ROOM YOU LITTLE BASTARD?!'"

Basically, if you agree that they aren't obligated to act professionally, then it is actually WRONG for you express your disappointment for their behavior when they don't.


nobody is obligated to act professionally, but it is expected by their audiences/sponsors/employers/teams. If you don't act professionally, you get criticized. That's the end of it

your analogy is so flawed that I don't even know where to begin, or if I wanted to



No. You don't understand. The problem is that you shouldn't expect them to behave professionally. Sotg is not a professionally produced show. It's "InDy =)" It's a bunch of guys pissing in the wind and talking about starcraft. It's not meant to be professional in anyway. Therefore you have no right to criticize them for being unprofessional because they never advertised themselves as a professional show.

rabble rabble rabble ! ! ! !

I can't believe IdrA said stfu to someone! - WHO THE FUCK is shocked by this? SERIOUSLY. If IdrA doesn't like someone it has been shown, time in and time again that he will tell them exactly what he thinks. Avilo has EARNED his position in the community. 99% of the people bitching are looking in on something they have no clue about.. they see IdrA an etablished pro not being decent to Avilo a scumbag whiner who constantly attacks us every chance he can get.. it just so turns out nobody gives a damn because they were trained to ignore him by his constant balance whining.

Oh my god, iNcontroL is a bully because he was snickering during the interview and he makes fun of avilo! -- HELLO, I fucking mock EVERYONE. That very show I teased khaldor and wolf. Is there anyone I haven't mocked or teased? Does that make me a bully? Only if you are insecure or uninformed I guess. I mock friends AND I mock shit heads. Avilo happens to be a shit head. He is a broken record on balance AND he is a broken record on his insecurity with who is talking about him.. if that makes me a bully FINE. I guess that is the case. I fucking tried to hand that kid an olive branch and promoted his stream but he turns around and goes ape shit in this very thread one week ago naming me over and over as someone who failed in WCS which meant he was better etc etc.. I don't give a fuck if you guys don't understand my teasing and mocking of him but if you don't care to TRY to understand then wtf?

JP cut him off without letting him finish? Oh the horror! -- He was at that time incoherently babbling over IdrA about how he "agreed with greg" and kept twisting what greg was saying around as if it was a point in favor of terran. The argument was neither entertaining nor was it informative.. it was a guy hopping on the show after starting a shit storm the week before, first thing he asks about is me teasing him or taking "pot shots" and then he goes on to interrupt idra, take his words and twist them and speak over everyone else.. greg lost his cool and JP controlled that shit. Should he have barked over Avilo "thanks for coming on" and then hung up on him? I guess in some wierd internet way that would be less impolite.. ok.

We called it. We said this was Mia Rose all over again. A terrible idea amidst an otherwise fine show. So that is on us. But I got to be honest with you: Fuck a lot of you. Fuck you forever. Get all up in arms about Avilo and start trashing IdrA, JP and myself. Asking for us to quit the show and leave SC2. This show isn't earning me or IdrA money. And lately, it has been really fucking annoying actually. We aren't allowed to make mistakes when we discuss shit. We have to give context for everything we say to be careful that some uppity 30 post prick who has been around for 6 months won't run off and try to create drama.

This shit WILL blow over because at the end of the day there is no grabby sound bite.. there is no image of greg double birding the screen in a fit of rage. There is a bunch of insecure asshats interpreting things as bad as they possibly can with 0 context for why Avilo was spoken to that way. It just sickens me how completely tunnel visioned a lot of this community is.. you WANT to get people fired you WANT to make people break and snap.. great.

Well enjoy your 2.3 days of drama. After this avilo will go on to shit on everyone he talks to that doesn't agree with him. He will continue to play the martyr for as long as the community will give him that attention. We are going to keep doing the show because most of you deserve it and we will continue to make the same kind of jokes and from time to time make mistakes by allowing people on the show that don't deserve it and bring out the worst in people.


Wait wtf?

After that call last night, and the disrespect from you i continually put up with...you are going on and on to slander me more?? @_@

You guys were being immature to be completely blunt, try and justify it however you want. I was taken aback myself a bit when I got on the call and you're snickering in the background and JP is putting up an "interesting picture" of me to try to have a good ol laugh and make me look worse - and that was before I even really said anything.

What the hell is your context for speaking to me in the way you guys did? Because I have made forum posts on balance just like you guys have yourself, and everyone else on this forum? What did I ever do to you personally that justifies how you guys spoke to me and handled yourselves?

How is the community tunnel visioned? I confronted you about how you trash talk me/slander me and put a negative image of me on your show repeatedly, and you completely avoid it, but I let it go and was up for adding my two cents into the discussion.

Really? I "shit on everyone I talk to?" Off of what basis? Have you ever spoken to me? I think not, where the hell is your basis for continually portraying this terrible image of me. Did I kill your dog or something? Seriously...what?

I'm not martying anything. I came on the call to add to the discussion. Bring out the worst in people? You guys have always been like this, you've trashed my name (as well as countless others) for over a good year now, because of what - me simply posting my opinion on a forum? Lol? I am asking you now - stop it. I have nothing against you except the fact you incessantly do this. Random people have msg'd me over the months saying, "hey they are trash talking you again on sotg" or whatever and im like "oh great again! how nice"

So please, seriously, stop. I haven't "earned" jack shit in terms of your disrespect and continued an incessant negativity towards me. If you're honestly saying because I have posted my opinion on TL that you don't agree with and that entitles you to continue to belittle me and be just plain disrespectful, and continue this hate bandwagon you started on me ages ago...I don't know what to say to that.

Guess what? HOTS beta is coming around, people are going to have opinions on that as well, I will make mine known to give the best feedback possible to developers. That won't give you the right to insult me or anyone else in this community just for having their opinion that is not the same as yours. You have a position as a "pillar" in this community, and you flat out abuse it. I don't want to be a part of your old gentlemen's club, and if I ever were in such a position I sure as hell wouldn't waste the opportunity belittling other players in the community, insulting them, having no respect and then try to justify it as "it's fine because he balance whined 2 yrs ago in some random post in some random thread - so it's ok to just slander/trash talk this guy!"

Once again, I don't even know you personally nor have I interacted with you yet you keep some personal ego grudge/vendetta going that I have no honest clue about. I'm a "shithead?" Really?

Dont use 'Avilo is Bad' as an excuse for what happened on that show Incontrol.

just because he isn't liked, doesn't mean you should put him on a show, and then trash the fuck out of him. I dont care if he was speaking fucking spanish.

I could break your whole post down point by point, but im one of those people your saying 'fuck you' too. Which is fine. Cause i dont know you, and from what im reading, honestly dont want to know you.

'Judge a person not by how he treats his equals, buy by how he treats his inferiors'. All of you on that show save NoNy and QXC could benefit from following the above quote


You must have a tough time reading.. I agree, we shouldn't have had him on the show. I also agree, it isn't just because he is horrible at the game.

No shit you don't know me.. you don't know any of the people you are commenting on.. it's evident. Go away now.


Really? Again? "Horrible at the game?" You don't know me either geoff, yet you spew quite a bit of bullshit out about me regularly with no regard to the effects/hate bandwagon it perpetuates against me for no reason. It's just "funny" right?

I agreed to be on the call, I expected some respectful and nice conversation instead of what happened. Obviously my expectations were way too high.

So yeh, I'm pretty sure 99% of the people bitching probably do have a clue. They probably have a lot of decency as well. Ironically, I have no desire to "shit on everyone i talk to," either - that's more your area of expertise.

In the end, myself and other Terrans got what we wanted from this though, which was for a knowledgeable Terran to give his perspective and discuss the TvZ issues/match-up/state of the game right now post queen-buff.

^i don't think a lot of your points were wrong, just misunderstood.

I mean this without insult, but you don't come across as articulate and knowledgeable as qxc. qxc comes off much more clearly and to the point. Perhaps it's just how he talks. But you're right, qxc gave a knowledgeable debate and I hope terrans everywhere learned from it.

I was taken aback myself a bit when I got on the call and you're snickering in the background and JP is putting up an "interesting picture" of me to try to have a good ol laugh and make me look worse - and that was before I even really said anything.


Oh please... do yourself a favor and stop trying to vicitimize yourself.

"Oh poor me! I just came on the show expecting everything to be friendly and happy, but then someone told me to STFU and called me terrible! I just didn't see it coming from someone like IdrA, especially after I yelled over his response to my own comments!"

And it has already been said many times that the picture JP put up is the first one that comes up in google. You are just doing your best to look for ammunition.

I'm sorry, but I couldn't make it further into your post. It would be a shame if it has some valid points, because like I said, you are not doing yourself a favor when you are just looking to make yourself look like a helpless innocent victim.

To clarify, I don't think he should have insulted you... but your posts have seemed to do nothing but try to make things look worse by talking about how unfair everything is and how poorly they treated you. If you think that is terrible treatment (especially as the center of attention on the internet) then you have to grow much thicker skin. It is the unfortunate reality.

I confronted you about how you trash talk me/slander me and put a negative image of me on your show repeatedly, and you completely avoid it

I came on the call to add to the discussion.

Yes, you came on the call to talk about TvZ, but right off the bat you layed the ground work for more drama.

You could have hung up on the call at anytime, but you didn't. Don't play the poor me card when last week you were ranting about Incontrol in this forum.

Please just stop adding more stuff to this storm of drama.

Maybe JP and InControl should just start a production company called Nerdfights. They can throw in condescending interviews with pornstars in as bonus material.

I can't believe IdrA said stfu to someone! - WHO THE FUCK is shocked by this? SERIOUSLY. If IdrA doesn't like someone it has been shown, time in and time again that he will tell them exactly what he thinks. Avilo has EARNED his position in the community. 99% of the people bitching are looking in on something they have no clue about.. they see IdrA an etablished pro not being decent to Avilo a scumbag whiner who constantly attacks us every chance he can get.. it just so turns out nobody gives a damn because they were trained to ignore him by his constant balance whining.

Oh my god, iNcontroL is a bully because he was snickering during the interview and he makes fun of avilo! -- HELLO, I fucking mock EVERYONE. That very show I teased khaldor and wolf. Is there anyone I haven't mocked or teased? Does that make me a bully? Only if you are insecure or uninformed I guess. I mock friends AND I mock shit heads. Avilo happens to be a shit head. He is a broken record on balance AND he is a broken record on his insecurity with who is talking about him.. if that makes me a bully FINE. I guess that is the case. I fucking tried to hand that kid an olive branch and promoted his stream but he turns around and goes ape shit in this very thread one week ago naming me over and over as someone who failed in WCS which meant he was better etc etc.. I don't give a fuck if you guys don't understand my teasing and mocking of him but if you don't care to TRY to understand then wtf?

JP cut him off without letting him finish? Oh the horror! -- He was at that time incoherently babbling over IdrA about how he "agreed with greg" and kept twisting what greg was saying around as if it was a point in favor of terran. The argument was neither entertaining nor was it informative.. it was a guy hopping on the show after starting a shit storm the week before, first thing he asks about is me teasing him or taking "pot shots" and then he goes on to interrupt idra, take his words and twist them and speak over everyone else.. greg lost his cool and JP controlled that shit. Should he have barked over Avilo "thanks for coming on" and then hung up on him? I guess in some wierd internet way that would be less impolite.. ok.

We called it. We said this was Mia Rose all over again. A terrible idea amidst an otherwise fine show. So that is on us. But I got to be honest with you: Fuck a lot of you. Fuck you forever. Get all up in arms about Avilo and start trashing IdrA, JP and myself. Asking for us to quit the show and leave SC2. This show isn't earning me or IdrA money. And lately, it has been really fucking annoying actually. We aren't allowed to make mistakes when we discuss shit. We have to give context for everything we say to be careful that some uppity 30 post prick who has been around for 6 months won't run off and try to create drama.

This shit WILL blow over because at the end of the day there is no grabby sound bite.. there is no image of greg double birding the screen in a fit of rage. There is a bunch of insecure asshats interpreting things as bad as they possibly can with 0 context for why Avilo was spoken to that way. It just sickens me how completely tunnel visioned a lot of this community is.. you WANT to get people fired you WANT to make people break and snap.. great.

Well enjoy your 2.3 days of drama. After this avilo will go on to shit on everyone he talks to that doesn't agree with him. He will continue to play the martyr for as long as the community will give him that attention. We are going to keep doing the show because most of you deserve it and we will continue to make the same kind of jokes and from time to time make mistakes by allowing people on the show that don't deserve it and bring out the worst in people.


Wait wtf?

It's actually the ONLY picture of him within the first few pages of google. Not much JP could've done there...

Avilo still sounding like the 10 year old running to mommy (the community) after getting some sand kicked in his face on the playground. I for one thoroughly enjoyed IdrA being IdrA and telling this guy to shut the fuck up. Too bad he won't listen. LGN should really lose this guy, they have some great guys and probably don't need a troll of this caliber.

Oh wow.
I listened the MP3 as i usually do and after Avilo got dropped ( I first thought he disconnected because it made no sense to kick some1 out of the show he was invited to ), my thought process : Why the hell doesnt the host, JP, tell Idra not to insult another guest.
Then i read he kicked the guy who stayed civil in the conversation ; im like : WTF ?

Then i watch the Video to see if i missed some thing in their facial expressions which may explain it a bit more.
Cant find anything. All i see is JP with a dumb smile on his face after he randomly kicked some1 trying to make valid arguments, not keeping the guy who randomly throws insults around in check.

Its a pity Idra hasnt matured a single fucking bit last 2 years,
but its a disgrace that the host of the show, JP, not only let this happen but even indirectly defends Idra who obviously was the aggressor in this discussion. By the way, running around queens and praying u can slip into the main is not a valid idea for a build, dear idra.

If you bring someone to a show, treat them equal to your other, more established guests, JP.
All that trolling / editing of picture you do in your show seems childish to me but its your style and i sometimes enjoy it, but seriously that was just fucking disgusting, no question of style, no question of pre-history of avilo-Idra, just pathetic. Was truly surprised as i Always enjoyed SOTG.

If you wanted to kick anyone to keep it civil, you should have kicked Idra.

Dear god please no. I can't watch the TL tournament because it hurts my eyes so much. Not being a troll saying it looks bad either, it literally hurts my eyes.

There's a saying in Finland (mostly used in the obligatory military service): "paska valuu alaspäin", which could be translated roughly as "shit pours downwards". Incontrol gets a lot of shit from his play, so he kindly pours it downwards. If someone like Beastyqt (some would argue he whines almost as much as Avilo) was on the show, there is no fucking way Incontrol would have tried to demean him. Idra would have still said shut the fuck up no doubt, but Geoff would never do that to a guy who could 100-0 him. In that sense Incontrol's statements about "mocking everyone" is pretty lol.

That's the thing though, I go back all the way, and it says I can only play them with the blip player, then I go on Blip and it says it can't run audio only.

It would also look really stupid to casual viewers and big tournaments like MLG will have a lot of casual viewers.
