Dear Cruncher you worthless

Idra is 10x times better than you and he has 10x times (if not more) achievments than you. He also has more fans then you, a better sponser then you and i better attitude then you. He has also beaten you 95% of all the games you have played on ladder and in tournaments but still you say that u are a better player then him?

youre just a worthless faggot please enjoy your week in the spotlight becuse later you will still justy be a random noob that cant win shit while idra is making history )

It hurts my eyes when i see people repeating "cruncher says the truth"... you really think idra is a bad player? Uh.
Ah and btw i (and i think most of us "with idra" in this case) dont defend his honour, its just 2 things:
1) the games seemed like rotflmao (especially game1), "how to win without using any micro or macro skills from a disadvantage" tutorial for P
2) bm from idra is one thing ( a) we know he does it, its expected from him b) he is a famous guy who can get away with it (just check teamliquid's own forum rules) c) telling bad stuff about a relatively unknown player something is bad manner, but somewhat reasonable), but what cruncher does is just being a monkey. "see i beat him i am the god and he is sh*t" stuff. well, we will see how he does in tournaments, but he didnt made himself any more sympathetic
T for BoxeR, Z for IdrA, P because i have no self-respect

I'm so happy Cruncher beat IdrA, and Mondragon played some fantastic games as well. I think hes gonna make it very far in this tournament, and I hope we see him around more often haha
If the quarter was in your right hand, that would've been micro

I don't see how people can say that Cruncher is no better than Idra. To public knowledge Idra had no reason to BM and blatantly disrespect Cruncher. How can you expect Cruncher to stay humble when Idra made it obvious he think so lowly of him? Nobody would do that. Honestly he still took the high road and wasn't overly rude. Of course he BMed him a little bit but you can't say he didn't have it coming. Idra is kinda rude to everybody, Cruncher only BMed somebody who was rude to him first. Seems fair. His post game interview just seemed honest to me. The whole scenario was pretty great for the tournament honestly lol.

Cruncher did not say Idra was a bad player, he said that if Idra did not practice 24/7 he would be a bad player. Idra have had a set up that most sc2 players only can dream of but still he is not that dominant.

Its like Hayder, the guy lives in korea and practice in the Ogs house and what has he got from that? being kicked form Code A a million times and losing in the first round of TSL. But hey, I guess thats also just imb or maps fault like it is for Idra. Or maybe Kas did not play the way you are supposed to play etc etc etc. It just cant be that both Hayder and Idra might not be as good as people want them to be.

Haha, nice interview and I love the drama. I respect the opinion of people who don't like the interview if they also don't like Idra's interviews/behavior. Everybody who thinks Idra's behavior is fine and Cruncher's interview isn't is just being hypocritical.

Cruncher is completely right that Idra did a stupid mistake in underestimating his opponent, but labeling Idra as "predictable" is a bit pathetic.

Zerg is far more predictable than any of the other races, it's not a huge accomplishment to predict what a Zerg is going to do.

Cruncher might not respect Idra, but has no respect from me either, his name would, in my opinon, not be mentioned anywhere if not for the current balance of Terran and Zerg. Most Terrans know this to be true (although they will vehemently deny it)

[Cruncher]'s actually pretty professional with his interviews too.

Clearly you don't mean this interview. It is hardly professional to make every other response about how much you want to make your opponent 'rage' because you 'don't respect him.' That's not the behavior of a professional. That's the attitude of a troll, to induce as much rage as possible. He's no more professional than idra was in his pre-game interview. I'm all for the logic of 'return in kind' but let's call this what it is and not delude ourselves just because he managed to take a best of 3 off idra.


Yeah I agree.

IdrA isn't stupid, he rages just because of game balance. I mean when you have whole map under your control, excellent economy, maxed out 1.5 faster than toss and then loose because you just feel hopeless in late game of this match up. That's why he rages, and that isn't fine but it is understandable. So I don't know why cruncher is being a dick with all his bm, doesn't he understand why IdrA bms?

It's just like you play on ladder ZvP and someone kills your whole army with single vortex then you feel seriously dissapointed and you don't gg and leave the game. Now imagine protoss player says for me after the game: "why no gg noob?". That's just straight up bm and disrespect to other player.

For me it feels like idra thinks he is the best and that he should always win. When he loses it's because his race is underpowered, not because of his fault. For idra both terran and protoss are OP and his race is UP. He is exact the reason why zergs whine so much. You don't hear players like morrow, sen and julyzerg whine.

Haha good Cruncher interview, was definitely looking forward to seeing what he had to say. Actually thought he was rather restrained given so many of Idra's comments towards him.

Nice interview from Kas too, classy and humble. Looking forward to his games with Nada =)

what the fuck is Cruncher doing? In the pre-game interview he was all humble and stuff. The most cocky thing he said then was that he was confident against IdrA. Now that he has won he's saying that idra is overrated and arrogant. That's pathetic. Also, why would you disrespect someone for being respectful? That's purely hypocritical. IdrA is being BM only to blow off steam. He has said that multiple times in interviews. Cruncher is basically saying he has no respect for IdrA because he has a temper. And he's saying IdrAs reactions are unprovoked...

If you did all that and you still lost then you did something wrong. Don't tell me that Idra can't win even though he has map control, excellent economy, and is maxed out 1.5 times faster, and that the reason for that is race/luck/cheese/whatever.

Idra has this idea of how SC2 should be and plays according to that idea. His opponents just play the game, using and abusing every strategy available.

The idea is to win.

Come on, Cruncher def has a point there. I mean IdrA practises like a mad man and still his list of achievements is quite short:
Tourneys won: MLG DC (Oct 2010) , Razer KotB (July 2010) and Hello, Goodbye Tournament (Apr 2010) (source: Liquipedia)

Yet he thinks he is one of the best players in the world. Well still he has to prove that.

You mean sitting on 3 base and just pumping units? That's what you call "using and abusing every strategy available"? That's exactly why IdrA rages - because he thinks that it's unfair for zerg players. And I don't get why Cruncher comes with all that agresssive bm, maybe he thinks is so extremelly good. For me personally game 2 showed exactly how much better IdrA is.
