Lol just lol The second one was better, the interveiwer did well imo.
First video was a little awkward, but the guy was a good interviewer, and Idra is a good interviewee so it came across really well.
I thought the second video was a little lol with louder saying to Idra that he should have won a couple of games. Idra was probs thinking something along the lines of 'you never stood a chance'

I disagree, Idra has a tendency to not elaborate on things he says. In an interview it's usually not a good idea to answer with yes or no and not build on the question.
i think the interviewer was great, since he was good at thinking of stuff on the fly. he knew hardly anything about bw but still managed to ask relevant questions, even though he didn't use sc terms.

I thought he did quite well in that interview. I havnt seen many Idra interviews however.
I thought both interviews were pretty well done considering the guy didn't know sc. He even mentioned some detail about stasis'ed units in the 2nd one.
Good job to louder for getting the shout out to TL in the 2nd one, albeit just in responding to the question.
IdrA did really well in the interviews given the interviewers lack of knowledge. The interviewer was not bad, but I have to think that he needs to take voice lessons or work on his longevity to avoid blowing his voice completely through long days. However, I don't have that experience, so I could be wrong.

goddamnit how do you pronounce his name
IH-dra. The I sounds like it does in the word "If." This is according to the man himself. Though it seems the majority of people have decided to call him EYE-dra instead.
huh I always thought it was ihdra too but I got confused when all these people said eye-dra. Then again, a lot of people can't pronounce the korean progamer names properly =/ Thanks for the clarification.

The first question reminds me of tasteless, talking about mondragon when some nerd asked what his race was........
I found another interview that this guy did, its with Louder. He actually did really good in this one (he asked what is Louders 'favorite' race to play as this time
EPT
