On a more serious note, I can't imagine how hard it must be to be a progamer while in college. Last night on RedBull LAN QXC said a little about how hard it is and how "life basically sucks" trying to balance the two.

Good luck to Cruncher even if I lost 3 times to his cannon rush cheese on the ladder!


Lol fucking right. Idra said once the balance swung out of Protoss' favor, Cruncher would make a quiet exit, and here it is. <3


idra fans so fuckin delusional

I'd say retarded for quoting everything IdrA said and then post it every where like the bible.

I think this is good, Starcraft 2 is like the mob, you can't be half in and half out.

In the spirit of Cruncher himself, as he once said to Idra.

That's a good idea tbh, the Testament of IdrA:

"Thou shall not gg" (Genesis 1:1)

"Thine are bad" (Protoss 8:11)

"Fuck you" (6 pool. 2:42)

etc etc.

trimaster? minigun?


Trimaster remains a question mark. He did a fantastic job at the most recent MLG but we have to see if hes going to remain a consistent force. Looking forward to seeing more of him but all we can do right now is call him a potential.

No offense to Minigun but he hasnt done much. I follow the SC2 scene pretty closely and the only thing I really know of him is that he has a feud with IdrA and hes good friends with destiny. Other than that..

On topic: Best of luck to cruncher. Although I wonder what this means for his NASL run.

You might not think he has done much then because you don't follow many of the on line cups, but as far as I know he has had some success online. I think it was a root gaming tournament he won (?) vs kiwikakki in the finals. It was some pretty big invitational, and if you watched the redbull lan you would have seen that he is really good.

Looks like CrunCher is taking a break from professional Starcraft 2, in order to focus on school. The post on the complexity website makes it seem as if he is leaving the team in January!

Best of luck to him! He definitely made a splash on the scene.

Read the post here:

http://www.complexitygaming.com/news/3173/


Unless he's got a good chance of getting a masters degree and a high paying career extra schooling is a waste. Good luck to him but I think he might be making a mistake.


Kids with masters degree are struggling to find a job now. Gonna need some doctorate to get a nice job.


Trolls be trollin'? So your answer to "you need a doctorate in order to get a good job is to *not* get an education at all? *think about that*

Anyway, Cruncher, I met you at MLG Dallas. You were a pretty cool guy. I hope things go well for you in the future.

He was right about Cruncher exiting the scene though. But he just gave up SC2 for school, which is what most normal people do anyway, so I wish him luck in his school and career

Then let me make a prediction that Idra will leave the SC2 scene sometime in the future.
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

We can't be too sure of trimaster yet as he only had really one good outing. As for minigun, I think that he'd make a big name for himself if he went for MLG, but sadly he hasn't attended any MLGs...

qxc kinda, he didn't quit the team but if not for going back to school he'd probably be with FXO in Korea or sometime in Malaysia

Best of luck CrunCher, I didn't care for you at first but when you started streaming I actually became quite the fan.

Finish school, pro game later. iNcontroL did it and far as monetary success goes he's doing good I think.

Also to IdrA fans, I am an IdrA fan myself (and have been since BW) but everything he says regarding others on the scene must be taken with a grain of salt. He has great insight yeah (really good insight) but he's also super stubborn. Which is not a useful trait when discussing ways to play a game as diverse as this.
Don't be surprised when a crack in the ice...appears under your feet.

He rarely cheeses unless you count going to macro deathball off 3-4 base is cheese. Maybe according to Idra's standard.

Naniwa was also known as Onebasewa some months ago
