I was reefering to the fact that you were surprised you have to explain that "I would have 3-1 If I played Fe" thing because when you are telling people in every iview that you are the best, you gonna crush your opponent, 3:0 etc. then you really expect people to think "ah hey he surely doesn`t mean it that way he is just pointing out that his chances would have been higher with an FE" ... and btw that was not a "I expect to win" iview PokerStrategy.com TSL: So if Nony goes double nexus every game, you might lose? IdrA[Media]: Nah, if he can get a free double nexus diagonal positions on Andromeda and still almost lose, it won't really matter what builds he does. PokerStrategy.com TSL: Will it be a 3-0 victory for you? IdrA[Media]: Yes. PokerStrategy.com TSL: Hypothetically, if Nony wins, what would you say to him? IdrA[Media]: I don't know, I've never really been a fan of thinking about situations that aren't gonna happen. Seems kinda like a waste of time. yeah can`t find the part where you imply that he is worse than you .... | ||

But you gotta have a winning attitude, maybe not full-blown IM GONNA WIN. But I HAVE TO WIN. Seems like that's all I'm seeing when they interview Hockey players from team Canada. GAME 1 Today boys, fuckin watch that shit! Your absolutely right it doesnt mean anything to predict 3-0. I watched an olympic video two broadcasters one sweed, and one canada. Canada man said we will win 5-0! So swallow your words idra haters. | ||

I even also feel more hype when someone dares to make more tough calls. so thats welcome too without beeing a "must have". | ||

I don't see why you are worked up over a professional competitor implying he is better than an opponent You know mb Iam just too nice or I got that behavoir from TKD where you always show respect but I dont think it`s ok to act like that what`s with talking down JF after he actually knocked out Terran and Withe-Ra, that guy delivered. Beeing beaten as the huge favorite and only professional and then in the iview the next best thing he`s doing is to talk down a guy who actually made it. So if you want to be a professional you either act like one or you are just like that BUT I really doubt that Idra would leave without GG or flame in a PL game or trashtalk like that in korea I don`t know why he has to act like an angry child it`s just sad. | ||

What the hell do you expect? There will be background noise. They would have to change locations. Thanks for the interview. EDIT: As for IdrA's take on JF. Greg, you do realize the kid has barely any time to practice right? As a result, of course he's going to plan his BOs strategically to give him a shot. What the fuck you think NonY's been doing? Your argument is baseless. He's already proved himself to everyone here. | ||

I'm kinda glad they ended up adding that Idra is certainly a better player nonetheless, otherwise it just wouldnt have felt right:-p Villains can't turn alright just like that. (Please dont bother replying to this post with saying that Idra is the better player, thats not really my point.) | ||
