Oh and, if you say the subject of your video is one thing, I'd like that to start being addressed within minutes, instead of talking about rivalry for so long.
You missed (or maybe omitted) a great moment, when it was announced that IdrA and HuK are going to be in the same team, EG released an ad with both players and phrase "this is not a hallucination" written on it. It was epic.
IdrA says it best when it comes to his shortcomings as a competitor, but I'll be damned if he wasn't one of the most entertaining figures this scene had to offer
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
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.
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.
The way I see it, a good story always has a villain. You can hate the guy but he sure did make it enjoyable to watch. Props to both players for bringing back cherished memories.
Wow it’s huk, this is why history is so cool. I didn’t realize him and idra were contemporaries. The only thing I hear about idra is he was extremely talented and just as prone to quit.
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. There is a difference between "being competitive" and being an arse. If you main kick for doing something is to feel superior and to make people rage, you are not competitive, you are a bully.
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.
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
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.
That was MMA, a very good Terran player back in 2011. He blew up his own command center by accident, then Idra rage quit without realizing he was miles ahead and about to win.
Omg. It’s Day9 back when he still had his chipped tooth! He looks so young in that clip! I love that guy, he’s such a sweetheart. I started watching his analysis videos after seeing some matches he casted even though I barely played Starcraft, wasn’t good at it, and didn’t play ranked much at all. Even when I moved on from Starcraft I still watched all his videos because he was just really entertaining. Funday Monday was always fun to watch. He even turned me on to a book series that became one of my favorites. He’s a good dude.
Idra once exited a pro game when he had 200 supply. I never forgave him for that. He said he had no chance to win because of unit comp, but he wouldn’t even play it out to see.
Incredible blast from the past! It was a crazy time for E-Sports and SC2 in particular. Even it might not as big as it was years ago, the fact that SC2 is still around and even in a better state, balance wise than ever before is amazing and a testament of its glory! And also its so funny to see all the old footage of the SC2-personality's! DAY9, JP, DJ Wheed, Rachel Seltzer #nerdcrush and the lesser ones. I would love to see a small video wrap up something like 10 years of SC2 with footage of the important moments, profiles of important personality's, events, Drama, Teams.... and so on. It would be amazing!

This was the time I joined ESports... man what a time it was during that era! SC2! I went to all the events...met so many people...damn it brings me back
Jaedong vs Flash must have been so awesome to witness... I'm not from the Brood War era but everybody pretty much knows that both those guys were GODS (even tho Flash I think is considered the best of all times)
Huk has been a under dog his entire esports career, his stated off as the under dog in starcraft and was a under dog in over watch with the Boston uprising
I'm not ok with censorship, but i'm glad there is a code of conduct in the StarCraft 2 scene that prevents players from BM their opponents. It's really not ok to behave like that, it builds that rivalry but it really detriments the image of the players and the community. Thank you for putting together this video!!!
Idea could prob beat me and all but it was the most noobish thing to quit on that moment, like for real at least wait till your army is dead to ragequit
Saw this game live! Saw most crazy sc2 matches live because #nolife. So many amazing games that you guys could do videos on. Id reccomend the Stephano vs Polt rivalry, multiple tournaments ended with those 2 in the finals having crazy games down to the wire.
Epic Music; Fire Spouts; Smoke; weakbodiesmakinganimeposesplayingvideogames. This is like watching Japanese porn: Hot woman moaning like crazy... the camera pans down to the tiniest blurry mushroom head attached to the woman by two entangled black lion's manes. So much for nothing.
I wonder what idra is up to these days. Since his brief moment in HotS, my man has pretty much completely disappeared from the internets. Quite the shame.
Idra was a really good player but he was also personified tilt. Like legit this guy on a dynamo and he would have been a perpetuum mobile by how much this guy was tilting sometimes.
Idra was fun to watch tho. Just got annoying when all his competitors would do is cheese him over and over and over win or lose it took away the best part of watching him play.
ahh, classic, classic. back when the time i can go toe to toe with grandmasters. now i dnt even know if i cn do larva injects flawlessly since i havent played in years.. time moves so fast:/
We need your help! We've been nominated for 'esports coverage website of the year'! You can give us an 'up-vote' here: www.esportsawards.com/vote/
I'll give you an Australian up vote just for asking.
Is there a website affiliated with this channel?...
Dude! I joked about how you could do that to him a week before I saw the video where it happened.
Could you drop your exaggerated music in the background which makes it hard to hear what is going on while doing other things.
Oh and, if you say the subject of your video is one thing, I'd like that to start being addressed within minutes, instead of talking about rivalry for so long.
i read the title and just smiled from the memories
Saaaaaaaaaaaaame.

The best part was Day9's and DJ wheat's reactions.

Yeah, but where is the ad that I'm talking about? I don't think it's in the video
miniUsername The ad you’re talking about isn’t in the video.
Most people remember halluc but the most iconic phrase was "u werent loss"
The fact that they are both Americans makes that even funnier

I think that was his MutaLingBane against Marine Marauder Medivac of MMA
"Some Korean"
And those Koreans are shitting on NA
The way I see it, a good story always has a villain. You can hate the guy but he sure did make it enjoyable to watch. Props to both players for bringing back cherished memories.
Fav part for me was seeing Idra admit he was angry a lot, and actually making moves to help himself. Good stuff overall.
Wow it’s huk, this is why history is so cool. I didn’t realize him and idra were contemporaries. The only thing I hear about idra is he was extremely talented and just as prone to quit.

@Qimodis ...what?
'back in the sc2 days'? SC2 didn't leave, it was not a set time period, just a different era- so more like 'WoL days'
This is almost as bad as the time idra left a won game vs a korean terran.
Carl Lilleng “Did Idra just leave another won game?”
That was MMA, a very good Terran player back in 2011. He blew up his own command center by accident, then Idra rage quit without realizing he was miles ahead and about to win.

Omg Day 9 and DJ Wheat.. haven’t seen these guys in ages too
iamdihan day9 is dead now
He's still streaming.
That’s what I call dedication
Is he the same day9 in dota scene?
He's been in the last e3 as an announcer, he's also been in the hearthstone scene and mtg as well
“has successfully transitioned” got me so good at the end lol
IdrA quit SC2 in 2013?! Holy moly, time flies.
advertising the merch with the most wrinkled shirt i've ever seen lmfao
Idra once exited a pro game when he had 200 supply. I never forgave him for that. He said he had no chance to win because of unit comp, but he wouldn’t even play it out to see.
Shoutouts to 2010 professionals deeming it completely acceptable to throw out heavy slurs left and right, and not just from the players.
Lmao as soon as I subscribed to Day9 I just start seeing him everywhere...
Such a classic story and thank you for bringing it back :)

More starcraft stories pls!
I honestly don't even know most of the players featured on this channel, but I legit love this channel's storytelling.
This was the time I joined ESports... man what a time it was during that era! SC2! I went to all the events...met so many people...damn it brings me back
nice, finally my favorite story in esports ever!
I love Daniel's videos. Narration is on Point.
Jaedong vs Flash must have been so awesome to witness...
I'm not from the Brood War era but everybody pretty much knows that both those guys were GODS (even tho Flash I think is considered the best of all times)
Idra and Firebathero were the most entertaining players to watch. There was always drama when one of them was around.
Seeing Incontrol hits me right in the feels. RIP big guy
Huk has been a under dog his entire esports career, his stated off as the under dog in starcraft and was a under dog in over watch with the Boston uprising
2:00 King Of Fighters in the back, FUCK YEAH!!!!!
Woohoo this was a classic moment good shit. This channel is quality god damn
LOVE IT PLEASE PLEASE MORE SC2
I really enjoyed this video. One day I'll be showing this to my kids telling them of the glory days.
im just glad both men didnt crash and burn in their personal lives. Its good that idra found something to replace what stracraft was for him
Wow, pretty much knew Huk only as GM of Boston Uprising. Interesting to see his backstory.
This is a game that every single sc2 fan can never forget. Metalopolis... And those halluc, oh god :D
I was so new to Starcraft at this time I didn’t even understand the genius of this play
Wondered how long it would take you to make a video on this
Oh man! This just took me back!
All these years I was wondering what happened to these two. Thanks
I'm not ok with censorship, but i'm glad there is a code of conduct in the StarCraft 2 scene that prevents players from BM their opponents. It's really not ok to behave like that, it builds that rivalry but it really detriments the image of the players and the community. Thank you for putting together this video!!!
My favorite part, big ego Idras legacy is looking like a fork for one of the most embarrassing rage quits in SC2 history.
Idra still the Real Badass of eSports. No one can replace him.
THE NOSTALGIA WOW. omg Day9!!!!!!! maaaaaan those were the days when SC2 was king
holy shit you can make a 13 min video out of this what an exaggeration
Holy shit. Idra getting swole. He can slam nerds irl now.
Talk about rivalries on a collission course.
How about that Serral vs Maru?
Truly a case of an unstoppable force and an unmovable object.
So IdrA retired from PC gaming all together, and became a chill weightlifter? Didn't see that coming.
its like anime,the nemesis become the partner
Those were the days os StarCraft 2 competitive players.
You really gonna blur Day[9], the heart and soul of Starcraft for years, and now magic arena? That's cold
Esports was never better than prime Starcraft 2
LH: u realize
LH: most of that army
IdrA: fuck off
LH: was halluc
LH: LOL
LH: just saying
LH: u werent loss
Even his T-shirts are wrinkled... insane
i keep watching these videos with planet coaster running in the background and i legit thought that the music was in the video. lmfao
Watching this live, then HuK misstyping in between macro was the funniest thing mlg ever had happen.
idra sounds like a guy who could never do anything about his bullies xD
Idea could prob beat me and all but it was the most noobish thing to quit on that moment, like for real at least wait till your army is dead to ragequit
When did every video on every channel become a commercial?
Dat moment when I realized that this guy was Day9, he's so much better now XD
Tsihoarana Randimbivololon day9’s yt channel seems dead. Makes me sad for him. Does he atleast get a lot of twitch viewers?
@@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

So many amazing games that you guys could do videos on. Id reccomend the Stephano vs Polt rivalry, multiple tournaments ended with those 2 in the finals having crazy games down to the wire.
Why are you telling this story 8 years later though lol, it's still a good story.
Because not everyone knows these stories.
There was also that time Idra ragequit after essentially winning a game
Why are you telling this story 8 years later though lol, it's still a good story.
@@justinr4718 stop repeating the same shit hypocrite
These videos are a form of documentary rather than current news/events. They don't necessarily have to be recent.
Loved IdrAs shit talk, he should come back.
So idra couldn't cut it while HuK won at the end
Fitness is not an illusion

I confusions
Jabo's Fun Train indubididly
IdrA was a God, from back when esports had a some real spicey bois playing, I remember being crushed watching this game live.
Another great video thanks 🙂
I wonder what idra is up to these days. Since his brief moment in HotS, my man has pretty much completely disappeared from the internets. Quite the shame.
7:03 is the actual moment, ofcourse the rest of the video is good, but if you came for the title
Day9! One of the greatest voices in esports.
I remember watching this match it was amaznig. I'm giving this video a like for the King of Fighters in the background.
Do we need yet another compilation of this event?
It would be nice if you guys do a story line of players from age of empire's.
Idra was a really good player but he was also personified tilt. Like legit this guy on a dynamo and he would have been a perpetuum mobile by how much this guy was tilting sometimes.
His personality got the best of him.
Why is this video out now? 7 years from the match wtf.
Why are there documentaries about world war 2? WTF!
So?
Idra was fun to watch tho. Just got annoying when all his competitors would do is cheese him over and over and over win or lose it took away the best part of watching him play.
This match was such a big deal that I am not even a SC gamer or watcher and even I knew about it and what happened....
This stuff is what makes starcraft different
Wow, half a million views for SC, that's nuts!
I remember that game!!! That play was Soo sick!!!
IdrA looks like a starcraft player
Im here for the kof in the back
Jesus this shit happen like 7 years ago mang
Thumbs up for KOF13 in the background :)
So sad that there are no basically and acually shirts
I didnt even watch Starcraft Matches but I somehow know about this Play.
Blast from the past
God i miss Starcraft, such fun times
Everyone knows it’s EYE-DRA
ahh, classic, classic. back when the time i can go toe to toe with grandmasters. now i dnt even know if i cn do larva injects flawlessly since i havent played in years.. time moves so fast:/
Not a big fan of StarCraft but the video managed to get me stuck on the screen.
Only in esports can people act big when theyve been bullied for the last 18 years
