Didn't Idra say he made up the name Idra because his original name was Idran (an indian god) and that he just shortened it to fit his clan tag?

What is your daily routine as a pro-gamer?
It changes once in a while but currently we wake up at 9:00 am, have two hours to wake up, eat breakfast, and shower, then practice from 11:00 till 3:00, then we have an hour for lunch, then practice from 4:00 till 9:00, an hour and a half for dinner, then practice till 1:30 am when we go to sleep for the night.


Holy pig, 12 hours of training. I'd rather die than practise THIS much. Where's your freetime and social life? This is insane.

Great interview!

Yes, but I imagine myself sitting there for 12 hours and playing Starcraft all day long. I think I'd go crazy. I'm basicly getting tired if a match takes more than 30 min, how are you supposed to play for 12 hours every freakin' day? They need to get rid of the PRACTICE-VERY-VERY-HARD-TO-WIN-MENTALITY. I'm sure players would appreciate it to have at least a few hours a week for themselves.

Nice interview and i agree with most training 12 hours a day and showing basicly NO results i will quit so fast like any normal ppl do ( Draco, Nony ).

I cant imagine how it is to play 12 hours a day wow i got tired from like 1-2 hours max playing.

Great interview, nice to hear that he is honest on why he is BM instead of trying to excuse himself or defending his BM or denying them. Still though, if he didn't tilt so much he would probably be a better player.
