I don't particularly like Idra as a character within the SC community but he is one of the best Brood War and Sc2 foreigners of all time and a mainstay of the community for years, to compare him to a guy like Total Biscuit is just mind blowing. Mr Idra fanboy you are delusional he is not one of the best sc2 foreigners he is howver one of the most hyped sc2 foreigners. Why do you keep spawning crap when you got no actually facts to back it up? What has Idra won recently beside an IGN season one with alot of medicore NA. Watch Dreamhack, I woulnt be supriced if Idra cant make it out of his group. But enough of Idra´s skilllevel thats not the argument. And I dont compare Idra to total biscuit one is a player and one is a caster and atleast the player could give some compliments to the casters that have showcased them to the world. TB,husky,HD etc. Becuase without those casters and many others Idra would be playing in his mom´s basement. He should feel very privileged he is in this position he is today and atleats he could give some courtesy to the members of the community that has made sc2 esport what it is today I will take TB over Idra any day of the week. TB provides new fans to this sport all Idra does is promote BM. I know that is hard to understand for the Idra cult and his minions This is just way too bad/dumb a post to bother responding to fully. Idra was a professional Starcraft player before Total Biscuit had even played the game, he spent 2 years on professional Korean team. He most definitely does not need HD/Husky or Total Biscuit in order to make a living from this game. He is without doubt one of the most successful Sc2 foreigners alongside Jinro and Huk. Idra should learn some manners and respect, but for guys like Boxer and his fellow competitors, he is bang on about Total Biscuit. Are you telling me Idra had 20k viewers on his stream when he was playing bw? His popularity has skyrockted since sc2 launch. Stop being stupide. The sc2 community has made Idra what he is today and atleast he could say thx you instead of insulting casters like TB Perhaps Total Biscuit should respect the community of the game he's currently making money from. He should at least respect us enough to understand the game itself. He was streaming during MLG, that is just absurd. How can anyone who claims to love the game stream during MLG? This is a massive tournament, with the best players in the world and he'd rather ladder? Would a football commentator miss out on the World Cup final? There are extremely many commentator who misses the world cup. Are you kidding? Everybody is not invited everywhere you know. Dumbest argument I've heard in a long time. I mean watching in on TV, in a Bar or in the Stadium, wherever.
You do know that MLG Columbus was just a qualifier event that's leading up to the big grand finals event, and not comparable to the World Cup final, right?

TB provides new fans to this sport all Idra does is promote BM. Go back and read the post that got TB banned and then come back here and talk about BM. That post is appallingly typical for TB. It was somewhat more vulgar than I've seen from him before but he regularly lashes out like that at people who dare to disagree with him, regardless of how civilly they do it. I've personally been told by TB on Facebook to go fuck myself because I respectfully disagreed with something he said in his review of Rift. hmm beside he havent actually won anything the last 6monhs beside IGN season 1 with medicore americans You know good players win tournaments or didnt you get that memo?
Top foreigner at MLG, most solid foreigner while at GSL besides Jinro(who went straight down nowadays god-knows-why), and undoubtedly the best mechanics in the whole foreign community just from the straight fact of having korean BW training for so long. And also that IGN thing.
Either way, top foreigner of all or not, IdrA is pretty damn fucking good.
Not that I agree with either TB or IdrA, I'm just stating facts.

That's a real stupid argument. MLG Columbus was a massive event in the Sc2 calendar, probably the most hyped/important event ever for the foreign Sc2 community and instead he decided to one base all in for a few hours in gold league.

It's a three day event, you can't be expected to watch all of that. You can't put your life on hiatus because there's a tournament going on. (A tournament that's nowhere near the World Cup's size btw.)
If he feels like streaming, to put even more money into his starcraft 2 tournament, why is that bad?

This was during the finals, MMA vs Losira. I think he also streamed during MC vs Idra but I could be wrong there.
Size across all of sports has nothing to do with it. A tennis fan would not miss the Wimbledon final, a football fan would not miss the World Cup final, an American Football fan would not miss the Superbowl and a Sc2 fan would not miss the MLG final.

I dont even know why I bother with you Blashemy MLG is the World Cup, Champions League, European Championships etc.. of Starcraft along with GSL. If you don't watch the finals of those I really don't see how you can consider yourself a competitive Sc2 fan.

Yeah, that's just not true at all, because the reason Columbus was so anticipated was because of the disaster that was Dallas, not because it's the most important event ever for foreigners in SC2. Many players streamed during MLG Columbus, so I fail to see your argument because again, it's asinine and nonsensical.

I don't know why so many people care about TB so much. Idra was bm. It's Idra, get over it. I don't find TB entertaining and I don't think he is a good caster, because I don't need him to tell me what I can see. So Idra saying that TB is awful isn't really that surprising. I'm actually more surprised at TB fanboys right now than the Idra fanboys; they're getting a little nuts, and too much of any fanboy gets annoying.

1- Every money he won when to the players
2- We has the consumer of Starcraft have the right to choose, if I want MLG I watch MLG if not i watch what ever.
3- I dare MLG to give every money they won during commercials to the players.

Why do you keep spawning crap when you got no actually facts to back it up? What has Idra won recently beside an IGN season one with alot of medicore NA. Watch Dreamhack, I woulnt be supriced if Idra cant make it out of his group. But enough of Idra´s skilllevel thats not the argument. And I dont compare Idra to total biscuit one is a player and one is a caster and atleast the player could give some compliments to the casters that have showcased them to the world. TB,husky,HD etc. Becuase without those casters and many others Idra would be playing in his mom´s basement. He should feel very privileged he is in this position he is today and atleats he could give some courtesy to the members of the community that has made sc2 esport what it is today I will take TB over Idra any day of the week. TB provides new fans to this sport all Idra does is promote BM. I know that is hard to understand for the Idra cult and his minions This is just way too bad/dumb a post to bother responding to fully. Idra was a professional Starcraft player before Total Biscuit had even played the game, he spent 2 years on professional Korean team. He most definitely does not need HD/Husky or Total Biscuit in order to make a living from this game. He is without doubt one of the most successful Sc2 foreigners alongside Jinro and Huk. Idra should learn some manners and respect, but for guys like Boxer and his fellow competitors, he is bang on about Total Biscuit. Are you telling me Idra had 20k viewers on his stream when he was playing bw? His popularity has skyrockted since sc2 launch. Stop being stupide. The sc2 community has made Idra what he is today and atleast he could say thx you instead of insulting casters like TB Perhaps Total Biscuit should respect the community of the game he's currently making money from. He should at least respect us enough to understand the game itself. He was streaming during MLG, that is just absurd. How can anyone who claims to love the game stream during MLG? This is a massive tournament, with the best players in the world and he'd rather ladder? Would a football commentator miss out on the World Cup final? There are extremely many commentator who misses the world cup. Are you kidding? Everybody is not invited everywhere you know. Dumbest argument I've heard in a long time. I mean watching in on TV, in a Bar or in the Stadium, wherever. You do know that MLG Columbus was just a qualifier event that's leading up to the big grand finals event, and not comparable to the World Cup final, right? That's a real stupid argument. MLG Columbus was a massive event in the Sc2 calendar, probably the most hyped/important event ever for the foreign Sc2 community and instead he decided to one base all in for a few hours in gold league. Yeah, that's just not true at all, because the reason Columbus was so anticipated was because of the disaster that was Dallas, not because it's the most important event ever for foreigners in SC2. Many players streamed during MLG Columbus, so I fail to see your argument because again, it's asinine and nonsensical.
It was a mix of all the improvements they promised after Dallas, the fact Koreans were going, Tastosis and that MLG is always massively important. Either way it was the most important foreigner event in Sc2's short history.

I started playing SCII 3-4 months ago, thanks to TB and (later on) Husky
Since then I
- watched MLG, NASL, IGN...
- joined TL
- found out about local SC2 sites and streams (hi Khaldor)
- followed some players on twitter
- watched loads of day9, sotg, itg...
- watched loads of user streams from idra, spanishiwa, incontrol...
- quit WOW for SC2
please tell me what's bad about any of those things

I mean watching in on TV, in a Bar or in the Stadium, wherever. It's a three day event, you can't be expected to watch all of that. You can't put your life on hiatus because there's a tournament going on. (A tournament that's nowhere near the World Cup's size btw.) If he feels like streaming, to put even more money into his starcraft 2 tournament, why is that bad? This was during the finals, MMA vs Losira. I think he also streamed during MC vs Idra but I could be wrong there. Size across all of sports has nothing to do with it. A tennis fan would not miss the Wimbledon final, a football fan would not miss the World Cup final, an American Football fan would not miss the Superbowl and a Sc2 fan would not miss the MLG final. But Columbus is an event leading up to the grand finals, it is not the SC2 equivalent of the Wimbledon final, World Cup final or the Superbowl final.
The grand finals of MLG is only such for the players as there's more money involved. As spectators there's no difference. And a Tennis fan still wouldn't miss the final of Roland Garros, Flushing Meadows or the Australian Open.

What happens if I enjoy the streams and vods of Idra, Incontrol, Day9, HuK, TotalBiscuit, Husky, HD, Gretorp, Grubby, Destiny, Wheat and JP, Does this mean I'm bad for ESPORTS?

I watch what i want, not what you think a SC2 players must watch.

But you keep saying it's the equivalent of the World Cup final when it's not and it was not the most important foreigner event in SC2's "short history." It was a season qualifier for the grand finals event.

Dreamhack never had anything like the hype about it that MLG Columbus did. Dreamhack is still awesome though and I would expect any Sc2 to also watch the finals of that too.
