So I take it he is trying to burn any bridges he can.

He needs to work on his on-air personality. He seemed totally drained or tired or something. Didnt hear any motivation in his vioce. His over the top douche-baggery is going to strengthen people's believe that americans are arrogant douches.

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.

This is amazing. Grats to idra. Also, best interview yet. "Sweden or Germany?" "Who cares?"
"So, then did the American yum-yum clown monkey also represent the FCC?"

12 hrs a day isnt a normal workday for most people. Not to mention hes doing it everyday (maybe he gets weekends off?) Theres no way in hell I could do that =-)

How does that help spread foriegners to other teams if there are no other foriengers out there, it just moves him to a different team. But good luck and congrats!

Hey, can anyone link me to a video/replay of Idra vs Stork, I've never seen it.

to the person above me, I presume Estro is going to pick some foreigners up through the spirit tournie, and this ensures that all the foreigners arent clustered in one team.

He got his pro license??


estro made an exception for him before he moved to cj

he should be a progamer and not have to do courage anymore I think
(pretty sure it was the same thing done for pj/lx/draco)

He didn't like his chances at the TeamLiquid CJ Shirt Lottery, so he took matters into his own hands.

i think pro teams can only hand out freebie licenses like twice per season or something? so i'm glad estro sacrificed one of their licenses for idra

so long has CJ has some staff that speak english it should be ok for idra. hopefully he likes the move.

bless him but he's probably not the most charismatic ambassador for foreign starcraft. this is great news though, I hope he transitions between houses well and doesn't get too lonely in the new environment.
