And he's been in quite a few tournaments ever since he left Korea. People are saying "cruncher" shouldn't talk like that, but IdrA speaks the same way of his opponents when he himself has consistently performed at a mediocre level at best. The double standards of IdrA fans never ceases to amaze me. They love it when he BM but when he gets BM people say it's "too much" or "IdrA is still better". As far as I can tell Morrow may end up being a better than zerg than he is if he continues to progress. ^ THIS ^ User was warned for this post | ||

And cruncher...wow lol. Pretty blunt. I guess I mostly agree with him but I'm not sure if he should be the one shit talking with so few results thus far. | ||

Not respecting a hugely favored player that absolutely manhandles you with a strategy you 'knew' was coming and practiced against is quite another and it says a lot more about cruncher than it does about idra. 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. I feel the same way. Two wrongs do not make a right. Simple as that. I was cheering for IdrA to win between the two. His style of play is very solid and it's something that I try to mimic when I'm playing Zerg (probably because I played BW and I feel that sound and fundamentally strong play means consistent success in BW, but we have yet to see this in SC2 - so much more randomness and volatile as pros and the community has been saying). I guess you can call me a fan of IdrA's Zerg, not IdrA himself. IdrA's BM is fine when he is playing on ladder or playing custom games. But when it comes to tournaments and being unprofessional, I hate his attitude, tbh. After the games on Sunday and seeing the trash talk between the games from IdrA, I was kind of glad that IdrA got what he deserved, but after seeing this interview, I feel Cruncher stooped down to IdrA's level and both are equally unprofessional, arrogant and cocky. I will be cheering my heart out for the Mondragon in the next series, no doubt - humble and such inspiring play. Take out that protoss - demolish his abusive strats and show the true power of the swarm! Your zergling runby's will never be forgotten <3 | ||

He beats him in 1 tourney and automatically assumes he is 100000x better then idra. Yea Cruncher is coming off as extremely annoying and childish in these interviews. The "yea i totally got him to rage bro" attitude needs to go away if cruncher wants to stick around... | ||

He's going directly after Idra in those responses and no one else. Idra(SPECIFICALLY) deserves every bit of it for everything he said leading up to and during the match. He brought this on himself. Does anyone know if Cruncher is going to MLG? | ||

Cruncher winning gives him the last word in the smack talk. That's the prize. Everyone does know Idra is overrated (last major tournament win/high placement?) though and when you BM on top of that, you should expect trolling when you mess up. Guaranteed Cruncher's pre-Mondragon match interview will be far more polite because Mondragon is super polite and humble. | ||
