go check out idras record on the grandmaster ladder and compare it to everyone elses. Thanks!
NA grandmaster ladder record is not the way to measure skill...

I'll say this: It's obviously possible for unintelligent people to get high masters or grandmasters, and as a result do entirely nonsensical builds that are, really, retarded. I dont mean quirky builds that abuse the metagame, or odd unit compositions, but literally nonsensical actions. Consistently doing the decision which, if in any way scouted, would destroy the advantage you previously built up. These DO happen on Idras stream frequently, and so a lot of his comments are just plain and simply right.
Of course you should still blame idra for failing to scout them. And a lot of the time thats not what is really happening, the guy just didnt do a style idra is fond of, or...isnt playing zerg, so therefore idra rages.

Good thing I didn't say that it was.. but he's playing other people on NA grandmaster ladder and look how poorly they do compared to him.

Assuming how intelligent somebody is based on his Starcraft strategies... is not very intelligent.

he only got 73% win/lose ration on a very weak ladder while playing over 500 games thats not very good. Compare him to some other zergs:
Stephano 82% on the EU ladder
Nerchio 79% on the EU ladder
Also look at Demuslim record 83% in NA he used to have 70% in the EU ladder.
Its not looking good for idra tbh

I don't get how that's entertaining

At the same time being able to do unpredictable things is often a hallmark of champions, and it's something IdrA lacks. MVP did a bunker wall-off block vs Nestea because in competition everything goes but I bet IdrA's reaction to something like that would just be "bullshit cheese". If you really want to be the best you can't just shrug losses off and keep thinking you're actually better than everyone.

I'm pretty sure he respects TBLS a lot. Like A LOT.
I really love this fed up, depressed and bored tone of his voice. Makes it even more "cooler".

I think Demuslim just has improved a lot. For instance, Demuslim has played 122 games this season on the EU ladder and has an 83% winrate there, only a few tenths of percentage points below his NA winrate.

The vocabulary is outstanding. Really funny, nice job! Love the part about why he runs commercials
