This video just makes me not respect Idra at all. The skill he has gets irrelevant when he acts the way he does. He is just to arrogant and bm. I dont see why he has to be like that towards people, its not funny, its not cool its just really arrogant tbh.

Seems like Idra manage to get people to agree on that the only way to show skill in sc2 is to let Idra get 3 bases, mass drones and then start the game, and if someone does not, they are cheesers. but even if Idra gets to 3 bases, if he loses its never ever ever due to the opponent being good. Its always something thats imb, lame or just luck.

That mindset just makes you not like Idra at all! He acts like he is the nr1 boss in sc2 and he is just no were close to be.

This is a part of why I love IdrA :D He says whatever he wants and in a funny way too. His awesome gameplay is a part too of course. I just wish he could have a bit stronger mind in the really important matches and don't let his temper go way off so that it affects his game in a bad way.

well spoken, exactly my opinion. the way idra behaves in public is a no-go in professional sports, i don't care if he plays a role that makes him make more money and might be a nice guy in private.

I have a deep lack of respect for IdrA. I'm sure he's a pleasant, friendly dude in person (and probably to anyone not playing him in a game of starcraft) and I love players who say things like they are, but Incontrol does that, IdrA just says whatever makes himself feel better, emotionally lashing out at players.

I don't know how much he loves the game, but a complete disregard for his position in it is very negative, and creates a bunch of little idra-followers who BM like crazy because idra does, following any negative thing he says as if it were the word of god, and overall hurts the state of the game. This isn't idra's fault, really (he didn't ask for it) but he doesn't really understand that it's his job now. With the power comes the responsibility. He needs to learn to control himself in the public image, because all the "morons" he so often quotes, are very quick to pick up on anything wrong that he says or does.

It also does nothing to help the game's image when pro players are as BM as they tend to be. If we, as a community, encouraged new players and mannered play, there would be a lot less resistance for getting SCII more in the spotlight. When it's no longer "angry kids raging in their basements," it can finally come mainstream.

So, you guys can like your idra. I'll stick with Sheth if I want Zerg. I don't care if he's a worse player, his attitude and method of handling his status as a pro gamer are leagues better than anything Idra puts forward. Same goes for Jinro, BoxeR, IncontroL, Day9, etc.

Sportsmanship (REAL sportsmanship, as Geoff pointed out in an inside the game episode) is the thing that will make or break this game in the public eye.


This whole post wreaks of you trying to persuade readers to view your opinion as fact.

Every time someone posts about how sportsmanship is supposed to be the key element in the growth of Starcraft 2, I can't help but think how small of a role it plays given their is little viewer/crowd emphasis on it. If anything, it adds excitement and drama as opposed to your implied view that it's detrimental.

What? AFAIK Idra has been pretty GM recently. And I hope you won't start persuading me that no GG at the end of game is BM.

Many other people swear at their streams and no one cares. I also swear when I get 3 games in a row where in 1 I get cannon rushed, in 2 I get banshee rushed and in 3 I get voidray rushed. I don't swear a lot, but I do, because I ventilate my disappointment. There are much worse people that break keyboards and mice. Idra is pretty cool headed.

It makes him look incredibly delusional. Its more sad than anything, that arrogant attitude is probably holding him back quite badly, the early gg's vs MMA & huk were the only indication in tournaments about his mental state but now I see this... I mean its funny but probably not the best way to think about things if you want to be the best player in the world.

...He was joking in almost all of it. He's going for a persona which people find funny and makes him stand out on the Internet. He isn't actually a complete bastard with no love for other human beings.
