I was entertained by their antics. Quite amusing, and everyone wins. MLG gets a lot more viewers streaming Idra, and Idra's sponsors get more airtime.

Exactly.
Hey and guess what you watch pro gamers for?
To be entertained! surprise!

Oh and to anyone retards saying this doesn't happen in other sports:

Here's my worthless opinion.

MC doesn't get that he's nothing but a gross little nerd enjoying his fourteenth minute. It's hilarious to watch. Idra's at least got some damn perspective.

I will say I love the BM/drama, though. Way more interesting than a couple of gentlemanly chaps sitting down for a spot of tea and a friendly game of chess, what ho!

IdrA's little poodles welling up in tears over this is hilarious, although this has to take the cake:

These Starcraft newcomers would actually burst a blood vessel if Firebathero did some over the top ceremony in front of idra.

honestly MCs gesture may be aggressive - but it was totally ok, since it ment nothing but "war is on" IdrA showing the Finger only shows bad manners and nothing more. He could have played it way more sovereign (act cool and ignore it or just return the gesture). Anyways the drama isn`t that big as some may see it.

What?

Throat slashing is just as BM/disrespectful as giving the finger. Still, Idra doesn't have to worry about anyone who wears a plastic jacket. The drama is fun though, adds intensity to the match.

How exactly is IdrA's perspective from this video different than MC's?

That's all it is, they're just putting on a show to entertain the crowd and build hype and what not.

It creates hype, simple as that. And it worked; worked for me, worked for the vast majority of the live MLG crowd too. I think they're both amazing at what they do.

Nah, everyone wants boring players. What's more fun than Korean interviews? Fuck yeah, I want more of those.
"Uhm, my opponent is very good but I trained hard I wish him good luck ok"

Idra sure is hurting the growth of e-sports, right?

Is there any notable Protoss that IdrA doesn't have some kind of rivalry with? Tyler, HuK, MC...

now all we need is for Naniwa and IdrA to start BMing each other, and the IdrA vs. P hatred will be absolute

i think it's pathetic how idra fans are shedding tears about it.

meanwhile idra's own girlfriend shows her sense of humor by laughing and clapping during mc's performance.

you guys seem more feminine than idra's girlfriend.

Might happen when Naniwa kicks Idra into the loser's bracket while advancing to the MLG finals

Agreed. They're both outstanding players and incredibly entertaining. I think it's really awesome that MC stuck his neck out and provided many a laugh :D
