@@Elucidator- Its never been the same. Weve people like Lambo and Heromarine etc. that are carrying the scene now. No offense but these type of players have 0 personality.
yeah same dude ;D and all the old maps were also freakin' amazing ;D I miss Idra and the old EG house too ^^ and can you remember MVP? oh damn it was a good time :D
I highly doubt there will ever be a starcraft 3. Especially after blizzard realized how much more money they can make with much more easily designable games like hearthstone
It's the way all games go. The life, and the death. I'm shocked by how many people are surprised that their favorite games can die. Yeah. It's a thing.
Watching this video makes me so sad, because the game has lost all of what made it great. Idra, Husky, Day9 and more people have all left the game, and those were the people that made me love the game in the first place. RIP SC2 :(
+DullTorpedoFilms I used to hate SC1 because I was never into the sci fi aspect of it...I watched MLG Anaheim and with Day 9 and Husky casting I absolutely fell in love with it..RIP SC2 :(
I've not really watched the SC2 scene in a while, but I have to say I kinda miss IdrA. When he's relaxed and not putting on a show he's pretty funny and cool.
I imagine as he'd lie there, in a pool of his own blood, a vicious tiger ripping at his throat, his last dying thoughts would be "You just won because you're a fucking tiger, and being a tiger is OP and gay".
Vestin lol he'd be like "you never see claws like that in tourneys, good job winning a ladder with them you fucking piece of shit. god you're so bad..."
Only SC2. He was bad-mannered playing Broodwar too but never expressed hatred toward the game itself. He probably hated how easier SC2(in comparison) and how some people with less experience than him can beat him?
@Nicolas Cage That reminds me of when Robocraft transitioned from a good game to a bad one a few years ago. That auto-aim shit made me leave and not return. Imagine if you took a game like CS:GO and gave all the noobs auto-aiming rocket launchers with infinite ammo counts. That'd piss a lot of people off, right?
@@Mutterschwein is SC2 really easier? LOTV definitely doesn't seem that way, seems like every second unit has active abilities that you need to aim (and implicitly dodge) constantly, whereas such units were a rarity in 1.
I will miss IdrA so much. He's the reason I picked up SC2 all those years ago. His fanpage will keep his legacy alive forever, and the greatest moment I've ever had was when I watched the video of him unboxing his birthday gifts from us
Wow.. 4:34 is the best part ive ever seen about idra.. the guy talks about a person and how important that one can be for a sport, but everybody loves to hate him and nobody wants to be that guy.. And Idra kept smiling, but i think he knew that it was about him.
CarPassion Lol having 12+ big tourneys per year is being death? Mostly only toxic :) or People that is Stuck in one League are the ones that think that
@Thunderfly You call it toxic; I call it entertaining. Busch can ram a guy off the track and still be a Nascar driver, but god forbid a pro-gamer insults someone for sucking? Well, that's why Nascar is popular and SC2 is DEAD. People like you sterilized the fun out of the game. You want sterile? Go to fucking church.
Can I just say that Day9 and Dj Wheat was the best caster pair. And IdrA, gotta love him, he's my totem animal. I can so relate to that feeling of utter disgust and impotent rage.
"I think the terran is limited once they go down that path" "Limited? Once you respond to that you die....." *Awkward silence* "Sean your brother wants to get back in the call he says idra is right" DAY 9 SITS DOWN
tbh .... last question... idra is right. way more easier to handle a tiger with a club than a cobra in a an open fight. there is nothing you can do to a cobra. she IS GOING TO bite you and you will die. a tiger how ever, 1 - 2 hits with the club and he has enough
+NemTank you want to fight a tiger with a club than vs a cobra with no hands? tiger with a club vs cobra with no hands the tiger doesn't even need a club to beat you
+rectallyravaged So what, alpha's all about lifting weights at the gym and being dumb as fuck? I don't think that's what's got our species to the top of the food chain
Mulinaster That was the reason for the nature of my reply to the other guy's comment, which presumes that you can't be alpha if you're good at starcraft which has alot to do with intelligence. I'm actually not the one making the dichotomy is the obvious thing here. I'm not saying all people training in a gym are dumb. Saying all SC2 players are not in shape is quite the sterotype. In fact it's even ridiculous. Are most of them in shape? Most probably not, then again that's the point there can't be tons of alphas they are rare. Most people you see running or lifting weights are not alphas either. Being alpha has alot to do with solid confidence most of all. It's obvious there are SC2 players in good shape with active sexual lives and what not. Maybe not super athletes but then again it's absurd to equate this with being alpha. And one thing that's definitely for sure is that they have at least some mental acuity. Also apart from the alpha thing I don't know how many people you know but the *most* intelligent people I know certainly don't exercise all that much, they're just geniuses. One just has to think about famous great minds. By the way most women in Korea would prefer a "one milimeter arm" famous SC2 player than an athlete, that's just your culture speaking. Lots of women don't look for mates by looking at the width of their arms.
Oh god. I've found the core cancer of the internet and the gaming communities. It's that guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Should be quarantined to some other planet or something before he lays eggs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yep ppd and fear look up the xmg captains draft 2.0 EG vs. Alliance(be one of the first games of the tournament). alliance pick a bad line up and get recked by eg and then fear and ppd started being a holes. ppd is cancerous as well
Dude, you hit your head pretty bad there. Pandemic? Inflation? I don't know what you're talking about, but the IdrA vs HuK show much match is starting and Tasteless and Day9 are casting! Let's go drink Dr.Pepper.
There was a story about a tiger owner who got murdered by her tiger, and when the police came to get her body out of the tiger cage, they had to kill the tiger to get the body out. The first officer shot it in the head from within 10 feet, and the tiger flinched, then lay on the ground moaning and pawing at its head. It was still a threat to anyone going in there, so they had to get a shotgun to put it down. Idra thinking that he would be able to knock out a tiger with a baseball bat is pretty lolz. Those things weigh between 600 and 700 pounds and you're going to hit it with a bat. Cool plan.
The story about the tiger kinda made me a bit sad... I can just picture the tiger pawing its head, probably in panic knowing its going to die... I kinda died a little inside now. :'(
I agree, different races are different and for any disadvantages of any of the three races there are also advantages. What I'm saying here is that Zerg is a rather volatible race in certain situtation due to the unit production mechanics and exponential macro (more so than the other races, I'd say - obviously both good and bad) and a player like IdrA obviously appreciates stability and predictability in a game. I'd say he plays Zerg because it is arguably the most mechanics-oriented race.
I just realized, IdrA is Sheldon from Big bang theory. "these people are just bad." his hones opinion delivered deadpan and with only subliminal hostility attached.
You actually see better, without all the lightning, glow and such and the game runs smoother. It never was about looking the best but having the view to see everything that goes on on the screen.
Indeed, I was just pointing out the things you can do that do work to try to stop an adult tiger. The odds aren't in your favor of course, but it's still better off than against a cobra. Especially with the parameters set where you can only use your feet, seeing as hand gestures can be used to distract cobras, but of course that requires a lot of training, as opposed to the methods you can use to stop a tiger being very simple.
Indeed, however you could still employ the methods I listed as a way of stopping the tiger attack. It's a pretty simple concept, and an easily executable one.
Yeah, but those guys are people who have dedicated their lives to perfecting strategy and play. These are just people who work out a lot and fight over balls.
"He's French Canadian so hes going to do a fast expand into a stupid zealot timing into something gay. French Canadians, in general, seem a little bit off" lolololololololololololol hahah got me laughing so hard.
I remember when Idra rage quitted because he thought the hallucinations were part of the army. Best moment. He would just quit like as soon as he got rushed and shit. Probably one of the most toxic pros ive seen tbh lol
Wow, a 5 year old video in my recommended. I miss idra, I miss the bad mannered players and I certainly miss day9. I quit watching when there was no drama anymore.
