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.



Being hugely favoured and winning one game does not demand respect. It is not for a lack of skill that cruncher disrespects idra, but a lack of manner, or honour. It doesn't take a big man to admit defeat in a game of starcraft. Idra's lack of 'gg' shows what a small disrespectful "man" he is.
Never pull out.

Off topic but Testie plays sc2? That's pretty interesting to me.

Pulling this basically off the top of my head but is Mondragon the last zerg in the tournament? He went wayyyyy further than I had ever expected in TSL2. I don't know if it's even possible but a Tyler/Mondragon final makes me feel all warm inside.

Q: Oh, so you'd rather play him in Brood War if you had a choice?

Haha, in BW I would not have a chance anyway since my ZvT used to be the worst ZvT Europe has ever seen.

if only Mondi's zvt was as good as Octzerg's

Holy cow Nada is good. Maybe I'm just a noob, but when I was watching that G3 vs TLO I couldn't believe he suspected that expansion timing from TLO, but his quote in the interview "I expected his strategy after I saw that he wasn't getting an Orbital Command at his main base." made me actually go "wow" out loud. He figured it out with such little information. Love this game so much lol.

Idra is extremely overrated and arrogant. If he isn't practicing 24/7, he is nowhere near being a good player.


Relatively unaccomplished protoss player calling one of the best players in the world, who has proven his ability time and time again, overrated? ell oh ell.

Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion, but I think he should wait until he wins an actual event before he talks like that. He's being just as rude as the player he is criticizing.


I think in terms of rudeness idra is about as bad as it gets.

Whenever IdrA learns that he needs to be more aggressive in his play is the day he becomes arguably the best player on the planet.

The way he played in game 2 was simply astonishing. He made Cruncher look like a bronze n00b the whole time.

I hope one day IdrA learns to be a little more like ST_July with his early/mid game aggression.

People always say "one of the best players in the world" for IdrA but he hasn't performed as of lately. 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.


IdrA chose that path and followed it with good results. He's been a consistent player and always one of the best in the scene.

If CrunCher wants to come up as an equally BM player, let him. But to say IdrA is overrated is just rediculous, especially when CrunCher hasn't attained the same stature as IdrA.

I've already made up my mind that I can't support CrunCher as a fan. This interview was just distasteful. He took the low road with his answers just to "make IdrA rage".



i say NFL players are overrated all the time, but i'm not of NFL caliber. You can say someone isn't as good as they're given credit for without being better than them. If everyone thought cruncher was the best in the world YOU (even though you can't beat him) would easily say no way, he's overrrated. You don't need a phd, GSL championship, certificate, etc. to say someone is overrated... It's their raw skill vs. the skill people give them credit for... and lately, idra has definitely been overrated.. What has he done in the past 1-2months to be considered one of the best players in the world?

Q: In game 2, Idra did a fast drop strategy. July did this too against MC in the GSL Finals. Were you surprised by it?

I expected it. ..... I fully expected him to do it though.

He is a very predictable player



Wait, so how did he lose game 2 if he knew it was coming? Great excuse :/

The most hilarious thing is the idra fans. When Idra BM, qq, and rage, they are all like "he cares about the game" and "he is honest and just expressing his feeling". When anyone else do it to Idra, they are like "how BM, learn some manner". Double standard?

@CPMONey: PLEASE read his explanation. Man Do idra fans just not read... He said he knew it was coming but he didn't know the timing of the drop.

All respect I had for Cruncher after defeating Idra has been lost .I hope Mondragon manhandles him with his play/humbleness.

It's interesting how there are two types of people who dislike CrunCher: People who dislike his attitude and his internet troll approach to his interview, and very obvious IdrA fans who spout off bullshit like:
idra will smash him in the future. cant believe he said idra was over rated, with so much sucess, i dont see how hes over rated at all. not to mention crunchers wins being based completely off map/race abuse.

I accept and even partially agree with the first type, even though I came into this match and left it hating IdrA and hoping for him to loose () but the second type just annoys me. Just because IdrA can't deal with Protoss timing attacks or voidray colossus, it doesn't mean that it's completely imba.
For he is the Oystermeister, lord of all the oysters.

That "relatively unaccomplished Protoss player" beat "one of the best players in the world" in a BoX series. If that isn't an accomplishment, then maybe IdrA isn't one of the best players in the world. And that just confirms Cruncher's statement that IdrA is overrated. All that really matters is that Cruncher is in the Ro16 in the TSL and IdrA is not.
