[TehFair]

lmfao. shout outs to snsd.

[IncoherentBlessing]

3:15 GEE GEE GEE BABY BABY FTW!!!

[Zooni2]

Idra lost to whitera by stopping his tech at Hydralisk. He had time to tech up to Corruptors to counter the colossus, but didn't. Is he so good he through the game or was it an oversight. He didn't seem that unhappy about losing.

[Asiannightmare9]

HAhahaha Gee Gee Gee Gee Baby baby.. Lol SNSD!!!!

[doublechin324]

why is it called "cheese"?

[Joisan08]

@doublechin324 I'm pretty sure it's called cheese because it's a cheesy way to win

[BurningAftermath]

@doublechin324 It means like.. A very unfair, and cheating type way of winning a match

[ayoth12]

@BurningAftermath I heard it was named after some BW pro named Chizu or something?

[Vorsac]

I like how the Spine Crawler was flailing blood all over the place while it was burrowing

[Tliken]

Oooooo IdrA hates cheeze. :/

[nightinjale]

idrA is a amazing micro player. he almost never gets beaten when its a micro game. but i have to admit i would be a littttle bit mad if it was the final match and someone did this to me. i know its apart of the game but really whitera? you cheese him with a cannon rush just wow shows how much more of a player idra is......

[fiendix27]

@nightinjale You mean "macro" instead of "micro" right?

[nightinjale]

@fiendix27 Yes sorry my mistake :)

[bood3e]

why is idra so famous?

[fiendix27]

@bood3e two major reasons. First he's well known for his rages when he is beaten all kinds of BM and random filth. Second, and more importantly, he's one of the absolute best SC players in the world, moving from the US to Korea a few years ago to focus on the game. I am not a fan of him, but have to respect his near flawless macro play.

[mechcalvin]

@bood3e google idra rage

[2k8IDominicI2k8]

GEE GEE GEE GEE BABBY BABBY BABBY 

[uioxk]

anyone know how far these games were spaced out? Were they all played in one day or what?

[djftw76]

I could just see idra scratching his head and going "What the fuck?"

[thefreehater]

CHEESE

[lilcrazyfuzzy]

"I think it's like 50 trillion Won if you work it out" HAHAHHA!

[locomotive147]

GEE GEE GEE GEE BABY BABY BABY

[InfomercialRemixer]

I don't understand this game at all.

[evincarselenia]

@InfomercialRemixer you have two choicesl; either get a game :D (which i would recommend) or you can always play other game that you like

[techhungry1]

love the intro on these games

[jaspercom]

I fucking laughed so hard at 5:21, spine crawler humping pylo just looked so funny to me.

[darkhtennek21]

why do idra's buildings always have those symbols around them? what does this mean?

[katoklang00]

@darkhtennek21 race decals

[blacksheepwall79]

@darkhtennek21 Think that's his Decal. (You get Decals for your units in SC2)

[drchen054]

Who would love to see will ferrell play a talidiga knights type of role in movie about professional starcraft. He should really build his character after Idra. Imagine him, a 40 year old in Korea with all these teenage fans looking at him when he loses it and he takes his keyboard.. chucks it across the audience's heads.

[thoeezheeah]

@drchen054 you should watch the king of kong; tribute/mockumentary of professional gaming

[tropicalthunder232]

@thoeezheeah whats the movie bro

[ThePdxwill]

@drchen054 talidiga knights? Really? You're on the internet. You could easily google that and you'd get Did you mean "Talladega Nights"? .. because you clearly did.

[Tristo69]

@ThePdxwill TROLOLOLOLOLOL

[bdC9o]

@ThePdxwill

Why would he want to google something as insignificant as the spelling of a movie in a post on youtube?

Please get some fresh air.

[ThePdxwill]

@bdC9o Spelling and grammar are insignificant to some, but highly important to others. Who is to say which is right?

[bdC9o]

@ThePdxwill

Proper grammar isn't important on message boards. Especially forums. Don't tell me you go around nerd raging on every single person who mis-spells a word.

Its not that serious.

[bdC9o]

@drchen054

Lol, Idra is 40?

lol, hilarious. That would make an awesome movie.

[lawtzelap]

@drchen054 HOLY SHIT!

[ArcAnglX]

@drchen054 this would be funny, except i hate to be a grammar nazi here but its not talidagia KNIGHTS its nights. but yes this would be funny as hell.

[bstorm123]

@ArcAnglX get a life bro.

[bstorm123]

@ArcAnglX it's actually Archangel.

[ArcAnglX]

@bstorm123

yes troll I know this.

[bstorm123]

@ArcAnglX Not a troll just a "grammar Nazi" :P

[336forlife]

@drchen054 Lolz :3

[xxxCRAZYLOVExxx]

@drchen054 talidaga knights sucked, but i think a sc2 movie with him would be better

[memberofslash]

great control here from idrA!

[YunokaBoiz]

god i love the music at the beginning

plz send me a DL link

[72U11]

$2,000 is kind of lame.

[decoy134]

@72U11 How much money do you get paid to play a video game? I'm guessing under $2000. The average American doesn't make $2000 a day let alone by playing a video game.

[vinoberg]

@decoy134 Yeah but we don't have hundreds of thousands of people watching our games either. Could you imagine if everybody who watched these videos pitched a buck?

[decoy134]

@vinoberg So? That still doesn't change the fact that $2000 is a lot of money just for playing a video game. Just because something is uncommon doesn't change it's value.

[vinoberg]

@decoy134

When you consider that this is their *lives* and they play Starcraft about 12 hours a day, then no, $2000 is NOT a lot of money. Calculate how much tourny's pay by hours played and it's probably a matter of cents.

[decoy134]

@vinoberg Ok, that made no sense what-so-ever. A person who plays Starcraft 2 all day WILL NOT be paid for every hour he plays. Why? Because that brings no profit in to the boss. MLG events provide cash rewards because they make some from the people who pay to go and the people who pay to watch. Is there an MLG event EVERYDAY? No. You cannot play Starcraft 2 all day and expect to be financially secure. They probably have jobs that don't pay you for playing video games.

[vinoberg]

@decoy134 There are Korean starcraft players get paid over 100k per year. I'm not saying professional gaming is a secure life path, but you can't win this argument man, 2k is chump change for pro gamers.

[decoy134]

@vinoberg Wrong. That is Korea, where people spend their entire lives pretty much playing video games. I'm sorry, but the fact is, that is where you take is too far into the extreme, where people actually go to the internet equivalent of the olympics. Once again, that is going way to far for the average professional gamer. Let's face the statistics: the average American professional gamer must have a day job. In Korea, players can play so much because their lives have been assimilated by the

[decoy134]

@vinoberg internet. It's ridiculous and even the Korean government has admitted that it's becoming a problem; it's even being classified as an addiction. As a result, we cannot consider Korea not only because this specific competition doesn't feature Koreans but also due to this abnormality in their behavior. Now let's look at American players: they cannot possibly make $100,000 a year. Not only that, but only the best Korean players even make that. The nature of our topic focuses on AVERAGE.

[decoy134]

@vinoberg 1 more thing, $2,000 isn't 'chump change' for anybody. When Bill Gate was the richest man in the world, he still said that the most he would ever pay for a cheeseburger was $1. Why? Because unlike some people, he knows the value of money.

[ridjf]

dat cheese

[perpetualdirect]

look like warcraft 3?

[supergodzilla1]

I like how HD has the Observer portrait.

[limpei1]

you guys notice something? they are in same party as idra. means idra can hear wat they are hearing

[S31J41]

@limpei1

they use skype to cast these games, not the mic on starcraft

[limpei1]

@S31J41 then explain why can see the mic white bar moving in sc2 party profile?

[S31J41]

@limpei1 The HDH invitationals was done when sc2 was still in beta. If u played beta, u wouldve noticed that the mic bar goes up and down regardless of whether or not u are speaking. the other party members do not see ur bar and u can only see ur own bar. thats why if u noticed, only husky's bar was moving and not HDsc's, even thought he is speaking. They fixed this during the retail of wings of liberty

[Mesquissto]

LMFAO @ RANDOM SNSD

[googledoogle]

LOL "GEE GEE BABY GEE GEE"

[danm966]

I AM THE DESTROYER!!!!!!!!

[aaiyahh]

geegeegeegee baby baby baby

[Phate18]

A thousand bucks is actually approximately 1.2 million Won or 8,000 Ukrainian Hryvna.

[suin4]

What is IdrA doing in the same group of yours listening to the commentaries?

Can't he listen ingame?

[supermandaan]

@suin4 theyre probably talking on vent/skype, not via sc2 because thats a bad program for voice comunication anyway

[Dindondidle]

How do you change your picture on starcraft??

[danm966]

@Dindondidle it depends, some are earned when completing the campaign, some you just get when you play a certain race at ladder matches

[d3sperado]

just got iRip.. and man do i have husky and HD to thank..! thanks for bringing us together (iRip) lol ♥

[gobe270]

lol this is a great deal for iRip, 100k+ on all these tournament vids and it probably only cost them the 3k prize money.

[boredddom]

whats the opening song xd

[gripwing]

what the hell is going on here and what the hell are those two canadian's talkin about.

[WastedGunner]

can't idra hear the commentators cuz he's in their party?!

[MariosGuy]

@WastedGunner no lol they are talking on skype.

[Mieuu]

lmao @ idra singing snsd at 3:13

[MouthofSaurons]

IdrA should have gone for the pylon instead of the forge

[Covertghost]

[aznargo]

THOR IS HEARR

[knechtor]

omg i LOVED that "GEE GEE GEE GEE BABY BABY" from the spectator at 3:15 xD he must be korean or a real freak for knowing that song (like me xD)

[evearlyMAD]

WhiteRa could've won if he had place the canons better (top 2-3 drones/zerglings) could attack the warping canons if they where placed at the pylon to "wall-in"

[nemjit1]

OMG 1 retard hit the dislike button...

[Zetaman6666]

who the hell would thumbs down this video?

[vas2702]

@Zetaman6666 some body who probably missed the thumbs up button

[lkjfdsa3211]

or instead of attacking the forge or the two cannons, idra could've attacked the pylon..i mean. just a thought.

[smunp]

"unless you straight up cheese them" which is exactly what he's going to do >:)

[smunp]

there should be a way to keep it HD as you move it from video to video

[majikninja07]

great start if only he had another zelot or two a little earlier

[MikeP1zzle]

hdsc is way 2aznimo

[Willster54321]

[Mingyrox]

May i noe whos that hyun?

[timtime88]

GEE GEE GEE GEE BABY BABY GEE GEE GEE GEE BABY BABY. this made my day

[dgmavn]

game starts at 1:00

[flyingspoons]

noob question: wat is cheesing?

[choefs231]

@flyingspoons

cheesing is usually any "all-in" strategy to end the game early. ie, early void rays, zerglings, etc. There are other strategies besides rushes too, like some sort of drop into the probe/drone line.

[covermewithaleaf33]

all american starcraft players wish they had a korean girlfriend .. lol ..

[nehcrum]

Why did IdrA go for the forge and not the pylon?

He could have gotten a decent surround on the pylon, the pylon has less hitpoints and even if the pylon would still have been up when the forge came up, so WhiteRa could put down cannons, taking out the pylons would make the cannons worthless.

Instead, he failed to take down the forge in time, and as soon as the cannons were placed, he had to switch to attack them instead.

So why not go for the pylon instead?

[JonnyStickman123]

I didn't know husky could talk so fast

[Mcstooger]

wasnt expecting idra to give in so easily in that last game

[BrainlessUnit]

so much adds lately!

[lunestrider]

3:31 must kill forge so that these drones and lings can stop the cannon...!

4:06 oh wait there's opening here

lol by the time forge is completely in the red :P

[Balgore8]

Hahaha "I think its like 50 trillion wan". Haha, typical American.

[oOexarkunOo]

@Balgore8

First of all it's called "hyperbole" and it's usually in jest though it does illustrates the high won:dollar ratio.

2000 dollars is around 2.5 million won

[imgdumpprep]

@Balgore8 shut up

[Balgore8]

@imgdumpprep No U!

[Tweakisher]

Next blizzcon, invite HD and H as commentators. 

[Stevezftw]

@Tweakisher 100% agree and TotalBiscuit.
