All you missed was 10 minutes of baby's first multiverse theory, that seems really cool and deep to people who haven't analyzed, watched, read, listened, or looked at an actually deep piece of art because it's framed in a slow, vague way. There isn't a single piece of infinite that would be out of place in a summer popcorn movie.

He was one of the biggest SC2 pro players for a while and eventually Team Liquid had enough of his poo poo and outbursts. I believe what got him canned was telling someone on the forums to get cancer. Overall he was just extremely unprofessional, hostile and didn't do anything to make e-sports look in anyway professional. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/IdrA#WCS_2013_and_release_from_EG

If any other athlete for any other sport pulled the poo poo these people did even once they'd be out on their rear end. I wish I could find the video but I remember seeing some five way group call of SC2 commentators and some of them nearly looked like they were in tears when they found out IdrA got canned. It was the funniest loving thing. Fake edit: Here it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LI8rS0cs6I The way they're talking you'd think that the the president had gotten shot or something. 'bout 10 minutes in the guy on the left does actually start crying it looks like or at least is having trouble holding it together.

I think the e-sports community has a different definition of the word "professional" than people who actually work in a professional business environment. I think it's just the lack of maturity over all. E-sports events are organised by 18-20 year olds and played by 16-20 year olds. Ontop of that the audience is 15-25 year olds who think that kind of behavior is hilarious and edgy, and hence don't complain to sponsors. In other sports there's generally older players around to tell the young kids to pull their loving heads in, but there's not like that in e-sports.

Source link: http://www.returnofkings.com/32892/why-do-women-suddenly-want-to-become-video-gamers The  here is palpable. As is the scent of a man who has been turned down far too many times. quote:. A lack of real difficulty is the primary reason that women are now increasingly becoming gamers. It gets better. quote:. Why did women wait until now to be gamers? And, no, I don’t mean some person who plays solitaire on his laptop or “Words With Friends” on her bejeweled iPhone. The primary reason is simply that the star— the power— of the industry has passed. No, I’m not saying video games are dead or anything of that sort, what I’m saying is that women don’t want actual power but the appearance of it. They don’t want challenges, they want simple solutions fed to them by media, “9 Ways to Feel Better Right Now,” “10 Reasons It Isn’t Your Fault You Married A Cheater,” and so on. They want empowerment, which by the nature of the word, means they want power handed to them, not taken.  FOR THE SPEARHEAD!quote:. These women are seeking approximations of happy, loving relations with men. If that is the cloying worship of a gang of online gamer betas, so be it. The comments and the rest of the article are priceless as is this dude's twitter feed.

But yeah, for more background on it Idra was one of the few "foreigners" to go to South Korea and train when SC1 was the peak of competitive gaming. Idra switched to SC2 and did nothing but poo poo talk everyone else, and I'm quite serious about the "nothing but" because he never produced ANY results in large tournaments.

More from https://www.returnofkings.com different author this time. (I'm going through the site and holy poo poo this is a gold mine) Source link: http://www.returnofkings.com/21204/3-ways-women-have-ruined-video-games Here we can see more hatred of the betas. I don't get what these guys have against betas. They're pretty awesome and keep to their own little fish tanks. I love the beta that sits on my office desk. quote:The beta males of video gaming culture are the thirstiest betas in existence. When a former porn star can make more money by streaming video games for donations instead taking a fat dick, you know there has to be betas behind that. It's obvious that mainstream gaming journalism doesn't suck because of industry influence. Nah, it's all about the women. quote:Video game publications have turned into tabloids with female writers at the helm. Most people can’t name a female game journalist because they coast on their male colleagues who do the actual work. More alpha and beta stuff: quote:A normal alpha would use Kickstarter to make a high budget game that appeals to them.

In that video I linked for quite a while incontrol goes on about how important IdrA was to esports and how he deserves respect dammit.Edit: And here's IdrA being interviewed and he's shocked he got let go. He's just pure unadulterated . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUf2tRAwMcY

And Idra is probably the best example of this, he was always an absolute oval office to everyone who wasn't his teammate, but everyone in the community was all over his dick for being the only white guy able to "make it" in Korea (he played Starcraft:Broodwar for 16 hours a day in a Korean pro house where he was at best considered a joke), but he didn't really interact back. Once Starcraft 2 and streaming took off, instead of just lashing out against his peers, he was lashing out against his fanbase and every time he was a oval office he had less and less support until it got to the point where he was let go because the very same people who were the first to stand up for him in StarCraft 1 days, were now the ones asking EG why they weren't doing anything about it.
