EPTand i still can't believe idra first got kicked out of EG and then we lost him completely. he was the icon of foreign sc2 of foreign dedication. i mean we still have huk and nani, and now snute and scarlett. but he was the first, at least for me, who was outstanding. i am going to go in a corner and QQ a little.

It allows you to change your vpn to Canada and the video will buffer then start. It's working for me. I'm excited to watch right now! Eeee!!!  Worked like a charm, thanks very much. | ||

They had two different documentary teams following them around in 2011. This was one of them. The other was Good Game, by Mary Ratliff. http://goodgamemovie.com/ | ||

And I don't mean to be rude to the international fans it sucks for you not to be able to see it direct from global without installing something but I have to say suck it up to the Americans. For once your on the wrong side of distribution rights and the QQ is epic. To get to experience HULU and a netflix that's worth paying for I've had to do much more then install a single program. So sorry to say I don't have sympathy that for once your mildly inconvenienced by it; now you know how the rest of the world feels when they would like to watch a TV show but get that, "Cannot be played from your location" notice. Install the program and do what the rest of the world does and move on with it. | ||

Honestly Idra was once a really good player but he lost his real passion long ago and became toxic as a role model for foreigners, the scene (and Idra himself) is better off with him retired. | ||

I don't see how the "scene" is better off without him when he bought the most attention to it and also probably the most viewers no matters how good or bad he was playing. Better for himself is probably right though. | ||

Better for himself is probably right though. Yeah, but he had a bad mindset which was transferred to his fans. Probably 50% of his viewers watched him in hope of seeing rage anyway, they didn't actually like him. The whole thing was just toxic and overall not good for the community. Besides, as a fan/player and not a member of EG's staff, I don't care about viewer counts, I'm more interested in foreign players getting better at starcraft. | ||

"In 2013, Chris won several eSports tournaments, reclaiming his spot as one of North America's top Starcraft II players." Guess I really haven't been following SC2 closely enough. | ||

Only thing Huk has won this year was Lan Hammer. Not to take anything away from that win but he has most certainly not won "several tournaments" this year. | ||
