Idra vs Huk is not one of those match-ups. everything you just said is a troll right........ there no way your serious and if you are your straight up wrong and IPL does nothing but put out amazing content with very decent casters | ||

there's enough korean exposure in big tourneys/GSL so I think people want to see fan-favorites. IdrA is a guaranteed win, easily the most popular SC2 player. The only question is who would be most entertaining vs him? Probably not Keen although I am a HUGE fan so I'd be happy with that; Taeja vs IdrA just had a showmatch. IdrA vs HuK could be done at a showmatch in Korea so flying out two people who live together to showmatch 12 hours away seems pointless. | ||

Sorry Keen  mid-low level korean foreign players... that doesn't even make sense, lol korean foreign players. even still idra is code S and Huk just got knocked out of code S because of travelling so much and missing practice so much hardly mid-low level korean foreigners  | ||

A little bit of advice to IPL staff: 1. as already said, make a decent amount of pre-/post-game interviews. IdrA has been famous (or should I say notorious?) for his outspoken-ness. I think almost all the fans would LOVE to hear what he will say before and after the game. HuK's should be very fun, too. 2. please let them fully demonstrate what it means by 'show match'. let fancy stuff like 200/200 clashes happen, like ultra/broodlords/infestors vs. colossus/archon/mothership battle out in your stage. 3. let them trash talk in game. the MLG game where HuK teased IdrA after the hallucination was EPIC and will be remembered for a long time. It will be very beneficial to your ads if one or several games from your league reach that level. 4. let famous casters cast, e.g. Day9 & Wheat or Bitterdam, better still, let 2GD do the interview (if it's okay to fly him to the US) just my 2 cents | ||

Id watch it if there were no decent streams going on at the time, but it certainly be the lowest on my priority list. It's an old rivalry thats no longer relevant. HuK v X or IdrA v X i would totally watch, but the two of them in a showmatch is just cliche and boring. itd be like hosting some random movie festival and only showing movies in the top 10 of imdbs top 200 user voted movies. | ||

Also haven't you seen HuK's 'friend?' tease towards IdrA in Asus ROG invitational? These are all after HuK joined EG so I believe there's still a big rivalry between the two, and there's still big potential of drama between them. | ||

"Hey IdrA I'm going to make some hallucinated void rays <3<3<3,3<3,,3,3,3,3,3," everyone on stream spams LOL for 5 minutes straight. Good showmatch. Can't wait to read dat chat and watch dat game. | ||

MKP will probably cheese the hell out of IdrA who will then tilt and pregrackulate out of the game, which is not so fun for the fans to watch. | ||
