Give me one player, one single SC2 player that has the same mechanics(or better) as IdrA and you can say anything about him. Not that I agree with what IdrA says, but it pisses me off when people regard him as a "fine" player. Being a prick, a bad mannered person, etc has nothing to do with his skill level. And his skill level has nothing to do with his judgement of other players. Right or wrong, IdrA is the best North American player, mechanic-wise, and one of the best(if not the straight up best - up for discussion) player in NA. Doesn't mean his decision making is any good. You're right, his mechanics are solid, but he is very far from a solid player. I'd say decision making > mechanics. | ||

You can only criticize idra's decision making when he decides to leave the games when hes winning apart from that his decision making is pretty damn good. | ||

I had a higher opinion of IdrA before actually watching him play on stream and paying attention to his tounament games. The only time I've been impressed by IdrA was the first 2 games vs MC at MLG and winning the IGN league. On the other hand, I've been watching Minigun play from the beginning and I'm totally blown away by his progress so far, and I think he's an incredibly solid player who has big things in his future if he starts to play the tournament scene more. But thats besides the fact, what I'm trying to say is that people seem to have a low opinion of Mini because IdrA said he was shit. Which is further than the truth. (I also think Cruncher doesn't deserve the hate that IdrA spaws, but I won't get into that argument again after the TSL) Do better than that? He was the best foreigner at MLG and no one was surprised that the Koreans dominated everyone. Anyone who understands the game and watches his stream will see the finesse behind his play. | ||

Anyone who understands the game and watches his stream will see the finesse behind his play. I'd consider him kind of a Korean player.. He did live there for a long time. What I mean is, I definitely think he could have taken those games off MC if he played to the best of his ability and I would have liked to see him go higher. He definitely had the potential to. Anyway, enough about IdrA its a bit too off topic atm. Gratz ROOT, I'll miss your tag. | ||

While it is certainly interesting that sLush and KiWi have not accepted an invitations to coL and it is fun to speculate where they may end up, idrA has got nothing to with either the ROOT/coL merger nor KiWi/sLush's declining of the invitation. Y U MENTION HIM SO MUCH?!" | ||

Having read the message on root-gaming, it's a shame that this had to happen, but I hope the coL and former ROOT guys have a lot of success. | ||
