hardly. EG is just trying to make money by entertaining people.

no big deal here... as i stated before... its marketing 101

Root for idra... Root... Idra... RootIdra! Quantic Hawk has cracked this conspiracy wide open. Root is paying EG to create drama and thereby create attention for EG, which will in turn be hype for them when they sign Idra!

Finally the guy is the biggest troll in the game. His atitude in game and towards other people was unacceptable. His unsportmanlike conduct was the worst. Leaving the game when you werent beat yet is a joke. I hate to sound rude and mean but it took evil genius long enouguh sheesh. Good luck in the future idra!

Honestly, I think it should really be up to the player to decide when to leave.

If you ever watch a chess tournament, players resign all the time in seemingly equal position when they know they are going to lose whatever happens. I remember Gregory Sherper resigning against Kramnik in a position where I couldn't even see a real threat.

Idra did make mistakes before by leaving a bit too fast though, some of the time I agree it's justified but some other times were rash decisions

Even if it's a bad decision, it's his loss. And it's his right to take it.

It happens also that a chess player resigns and then it is discovered it was a bad decision because there were drawing or even winning chances.. Then you think "Oh bad luck to him" instead of having this ridiculous shitstorm from angry fans.

It's not like it's any good for him to lose.

I never liked Idra's attitude, and if anything, he has really hurted himself as a player with his immaturity. I remember that back to his BW day he could never learn anything from is defeat because he was always blaming some cheese or inbalance, which ended up in him being eternally mediocre (just remember how his games against F91; a more mature player would have learnt a lot from the match, he didn't learnt jack shit. He just came up with a childish rant).

However, the decision to quit a game early is really not something I would blame him for. In his interview he gave extremely good and detailed reasons why he thought the game was lost. In that case in a BOX, it's better to give up and concentrate on next game rather than suffering for half an hour while your opponent triomphs and put yourself in a harder spot for next game...


back to his BW day he could never learn anything from is defeat - which ended up in him being eternally mediocre


back to his BW day he could never learn anything from is defeat - which ended up in him being eternally mediocre


back to his BW day he could never learn anything from is defeat - which ended up in him being eternally mediocre


Never learn anything eh? Didn't happen to be one of the best foreign players if not the best, during his prime, to ever play BW no? He must not have learned to much from losing games, it was all pure and raw talent, no analysis of his losses. Also he was definitely mediocre hahaha

Please remove yourself from the discussion when you say things such as this, it reflects poorly on your entire post which was, for the most part, kinda... no I'm just trying to make you feel better, stawwwp it, pleaseee.

On the flip side any news on what IdrA is doing? I heard casting with TB no?

After watching the real talk, idra is still a good guy, you gain a different perspective I think. He is not a really imbalanced or bitter person.. Just didn't really enjoy his job. I'm happy he's going to move into a new direction he could be a good caster

EG kills individuality and wants players to become dull and boring, THIS is what truely is killing Esport. EG is therefore falling from my favorite team (even in dota2) to my most hated.

I have now no reason to back up EG anymore, i will now also not buy razor gear since they sponsor you EG.
I cannot support such a team like you. I won't spread hate about you, but from now on simply ignore team EG. Be it a dota 2 game or starcraft, i'll simply not watch it, nor will i read this thread again or anything that has something to do with EG players.
Youre now gone.

What the fuck man? Razer support pretty much EVERY team, so a boycott of their goods isn't specifically targeting the organisation that has drawn your ire.

You do know that almost every member of EG is Idra's friend right? Do you think he really wants Geoff and Machine to fail? If you are his fan, why are you saying that you and others should stop supporting his friends?

Just because he doesn't fit on EG doesn't mean Idra wants them to fail. If anything he, he wants them around to he can continue to be involved with Esports.

They can get my support if they find another team. I am not against the players, I am not against razor, but with people as incompetent as those who lead EG, i cannot support anything affiliated with them.
I dont want other teams trying to get more 'control' on players, to strip them of their individuality because of a false public image. I dont want teams to force players to put on a mask.

This indicent could possibly make other players in teams be more careful, be LESS themselves, since they know that teams might really kick them out.

This is killing Esport in my opinion. It might not in yours, but that is okay. I dont care about that.
I'm just the guy who is gonna ignore everything from EG from now on, make them dissappear.
The second i've closed this window, I wont even look at this thread anymore.
I just want EG to slowly die off into nothingness. To protect the individuality of all other players in other games.
It likely won't even make a difference, but if everyone would do it, it would truely kill them, and protect the other players in the future.
Whether you agree with me or not is irrelevant, EG is gone.
