Man, he could've shown some gratitude towards Estro for bringing him there and all that. Then again, maybe it takes a powerful personality like that to overcome the odds and make it in the Korean starcraft scene. Well good luck to him, I guess. It seems like the current crop competing in the spirit tournament will make better ambassadors for the "foreign" starcraft scene though.

wow i didn't knew, that a pro license can be handed out by a team...
i can't tell whether it's good or bad for him to move to cj. i mean he has a much stronger competition inside the cj team than it was at estro. that's good for his evolution of skill and stuff like that. but on the other hand it will be much harder to really PLAY a game that matters because the whole team is much better...

What the fuck is Idra so hyped about? In my opinion he'll be a dime a dozen in the amateur scene and never make it anywhere

I'm gonna go ahead and guess because he's not Korean.

He hasn't been there long, but I wonder how good he will get. Hopefully he'll get good enough for Proleague in a year's time.

Explain how being given a pro gamer license without passing courage is not being spoon-fed, on second thought don't even bother trying to explain because you're wrong.


he still has to earn it by playing well within his team. the coaches organize inner-team ranking competitions once every few weeks and they also watch regular practice games. i believe teams only have 2 "hand outs" per year so they have to use them carefully. there is no way idra got a progamer license without showing good results during practice

So what will Idra be competing in with his new license? Of course for the minor league he has to proof his merit in the CJ house first. What about individual leagues and stuff? Someone knows? I don't even know when minor league starts again.

Why would he want to go pro in starcraft... it's not like he's going to make money in it... He's from the U.S. right? ;/ did he really have no potential of getting a better paying job or is he just following some diluted dream ;/



Its what he wants to do, its not like he cant come back and go to a Community College for a year or 2 (dunno what is current academic prognosis looks like just) then go to a university.

He gets to experience another culture and go for something that he really wants to do, more power to him.

however if played bw 12 hrs a day id literally murder myself. You have to REALLY like the game to do that, 12 hrs a day of just about anything has to make it miserable.


Actually, according to Daniel Lee(interview somewhere on scforall), Idra, unlike the other foreigners that he brought to Korea, does nothing but stay in the team house and play SC. . . so, in terms of improving his SC play he is prolly doing fine, but his experiencing of the Korean culture is severely limited. Unless all of Korea is just like the inside of a SC team house, somehow I doubt this.

And yeah, watching these interviews with him, he really comes across as a shallow minded asshole with minimal personality.

he still gets to live and interact with people from a different culture in their home country so id hope he can pick up on a few things. If he cant well then that sucks
