[@stormcrowlegendary3512]

Dude, I was talking to a work buddy and SC2 partner like a week or two before that happened. Even though I was a Zerg player I disliked Idra due to the bm. Yeah, I actually brought up the hallucination strategy before it happened because Idra was known to quit games when ever he saw an engagement he would get smashed in. When it happened I couldn't breathe for half an hour.

[@Leelior]

aah the best idra moment I remember was when he was playing some korean and was just brutally annihilating the dude's units but then right before victory he just "gg'd" in the chat and left the game so the dude won and the dude's face as it happened was priceless! XD

[@DarkestKNIGHTCJH]

Not 100% sure but I believe it's the one against MMA? I actually thought this video would be about that since that was such a surreal moment where everything looked perfect and then.... he rq'd.

[@incoherence]

The Idra/MMA game is perhaps the perfect summation of Idra as a player: he has too much confidence in his reading of the game state, and if his read is wrong, he looks silly and then rages about how terrible the opposing player was to win in that way. He scouts MMA's third command center building in the base, doesn't see MMA make one of the most baffling blunders in pro SC2 history, but *does* see MMA building a new command center at the gold base: at that point he assumes without evidence that MMA has flown the 3rd down to one of the south bases and is now building his 4th. So he shoves his army across the map in an attempt to crush MMA before he gets the 4th up, gets an okay but not crushing trade, and believes (wrongly) that he is a base behind and therefore screwed.

[@xcp999]

[@boadams3506]

DorjeDriftwood he was a great player. He was just so toxic. He was mean and just overall a sad person.

[@shorebreakers96]

i mean "Starcraft was just a way to beat people" is a sentence that shoudl make him shunned by the gaming community. I mean, it does imply that he doesn't care about the game, the community, or anything except winning. He was good at something and used it to fell better than other people. I'm glad he managed as a person to realise why he was doing that and moved on to something (liffting/fitness) that bring him the samefullfilement without having to stomp other.

[@khanzy.]

[@oliverhughes610]

Was a huge fan of both of them back in the SC2 days. It was kinda cute how they actually seemed to become genuinely good friends on EG together; not just saying so for the cameras. In the end, I think Idra accepted the role of the pantomime villain in a way.

[@whatsmyname481]

Yeah i think he was just playing a character and it worked bscause he was pretflty famous

[@BothHands1]

Eventually it backfires though, because I'm sure it can be demoralizing when 80% of the fanbase hates your guts. That's probably why he doesn't even own a PC anymore, and Huk is still in the scene

[@oliverhughes610]

I don't think so. He's been pretty open about how he felt competition in that sense was unhealthy for him, and he's just chosen to direct that feeling into something more positive, namely weight lifting and finishing school.

[@oliverhughes610]

@Qimodis ...what?

Oh my god the nostalgia. I was digging for old memories when I searched this, wasnt expecting such a recent video. The SC2 scene in its hay days was more exciting than any sport or e sports scene I ever followed

[@孙林可]

My favorite Idra's theory is that he claimed he lost cuz his opponent was trash, and he complained repeatedly that his opponent was so trash that made him lose the game. (From some prespectives perhaps true. It's like you destroyed AI's mineral line but AI doesn't care. It base trades you while the program tells it to rebuild workers and lost structures. And finally you lose.)

[@KenpahchiTV]

This channel is so good. I've always heard of starcraft in regards to the beginning of e-sports but never followed the scene. It's really cool to get a glimpse of the past even tho I've never played or followed the game.

[@BothHands1]

It's an awesome game. Check out Winter (WinterStarcraft on KZbin, WinterGaming on Twitch). His stream/videos are very friendly to the newcomer, where he does tutorials and build guides, and casts bronze league games and stuff. Watching those bronze league casts really helps give you confidence to ladder, because you can see there are other people around your skill level still playing the game, and there are people out there who you can beat, even though the game has been going for so many years. Once you're more comfortable in the game, and are looking for more skilled high level games/commentary, I highly recommend PiG (x5_PiG on twitch, PiG on KZbin). Though his stream kinda assumes you know what's going on, so you might be lost without background knowledge on the game. Hope to see you in the SC2 community. It's recently gone free-to-play, so there's nothing to lose just checking it out. :)

[@asmylia9880]

Danielle Spargo you forgot that PiG also covers the maybe most detailed series of introductions into starcrafts, covering simple openers, macro cycles and most important mechanics like how to gain map vision.

Source: was friends with and played with Greg for about a year in between his SC2 / HotS careers, taught him DotA2 with a couple others. Before becoming friends with him I thought he was just a toxic BM piece of shit. Just figured I'd throw it out there since people really hyper focus on his (admittedly) cocky attitude and shitty behaviour from earlier in his SC2 career.

I was there when the first video came out about this lmao

[@SwordofSouls]

So... he repeatedly mocks the guy, calls him retarded in a belligerent fashion on multiple occasions and clearly hasn't even the slightest respect... but "oh no we've been friends for a while, very good terms, nothing personal"? What?

[@randirafaeli]

Dat moment when I realized that this guy was Day9, he's so much better now XD

[@velocity1146]

Tsihoarana Randimbivololon day9’s yt channel seems dead. Makes me sad for him. Does he atleast get a lot of twitch viewers?

[@randirafaeli]

@@velocity1146 he's got an average of 1 to 3k viewers sometimes get 6k or more just by streaming various game like hearthstone mtg arena and dota2

[@talonlan]

At the start of Huk's Overwatch career, he was mostly hated judging from /r/overwatch, he was considered a bit of a joke.

STARCRAFT MASTER RACE

[@ALLAHwithdaughterALLAT]

dead game

[@okerbel]

@@ALLAHwithdaughterALLAT i don't think that if the 1v1 game on an avarage skill level takes 10 to 20 seconds to find you can call something a dead game. I mean, sure, it's an extremely high skill cap game, unlike mobas and fps' but hey, being bad at the game does not mean the game is bad/dead, right?

[@ALLAHwithdaughterALLAT]

lol starcraft is like racing game so boring

[@okerbel]

I have no idea where that comparison came from, but ok. Again, your opinion of the game does not make it dead though.

I really enjoyed this recap!

[@saihtamw]

Aren‘t there any rules on sportsmanship in eSports like there are in real sports? This all seems super childish.

[@nathangamble125]

Usually there are. In some Korean starcraft leagues the rules were really strict, and players weren't allowed to use chat for anything other than typing "g" to surrender and "p" to request a pause. Some players even got disqualified for typing the wrong number of gs or ps (most famously Leta, for typing "pp" instead of "ppp"), or typing it in Korean characters.

Mätzle You mean like in UFC or boxing?

[@blueberryblues5644]

Erfajer cannot offend is an unfortunately broad term :/

[@Redmanticore]

i think there was instance where there was talk of rape to a female player on twitter or something and got disqualified. www.reddit.com/r/SubredditDrama/comments/2n5hdp/sc2_pro_tweets_out_his_is_going_to_rape_his/ dotesports.com/general/news/starcraft-mykhailo-gaida-961 but there is some shit talk that is allowed in professional sports, too.
