you're a fucking idiot.

do you know how much fun he's having in korea playing sc against pros? he's followed his dreams while fags like you sit back and pretend to be smarter/better when you're not. attitudes like yours lead you to meritocracy; some people strive for things higher than that.

Good opportunity. Make sure you make the most from it.

Congrats, and good luck.

Hed better not get his ass handed @ wcg now.

And about the "free license" thing, its the right thing to do.

Koreans get officialised in pro gaming by getting their license, but they're already integrated in it for some time before.

A foreigner in Korea would have to get a license to get integrated.

16 hours a day is bad for the brain tho >.>

At my time, foreigner's practice style was like :

Restaurant, nightclub, hotel. Wake up, midle of afternoon when hangover is done, play some SC for fun, then : restaurant, nightclub, hotel all over again >.>

(I never won anything, Grrrr.. did however with same schedule type >.> )

He's not an example of manners but I it seems more like he's just trying to be funny in the interview :p Don't take it seriously.
Great people talk about ideas. Average people talk about things. Small people talk about other people.

Yeah QFT, flame your a dick head
Clearly you have no intrest in sc or you would understand why he wants to follow his dream, and thats not diluted, looking at everything through money is whats diluted

IdrA is a big idiot if your definition of an idiot is a person who lives his dream(s). IdrA can when he will drop out of progaming in the future still get a job, maybe in Korea even if he wants to. He learnes a foreign language and culture. He lives his fucking dream and makes the best out of it. Cut the envy.

Maybe he can become Translator (English/Korean because perfect English and Korean speaking people are rare!)!

IdrA best of luck - go and own!

Did you mean mediocrity? I don't see how sitting back and taking the save and easy road will lead to meritocracy nor that meritocracy is a bad thing.

The sad thing is that IdrA is supposed to "represent" the foreign scene. He is just some immature U.S. kid with decent SC skills. Hope he grows up soon, develops a personality and *uuum* pawns in Proleague ;-).

^^ I don't consider leaving everything you know to play with people who don't even speak your language "immature". Quite frankly it's fucking brave.

GL Idra, just be yourself because clearly it's working great so far.

He doesn't carry those jokes well. He should probably stop doing that because it offends so many people.

But Idra achieved a lot in little time. Not many people can do what he did.

I totally agree. It's hard to root for someone who seems so not at all exited about getting such an amazing opportunity and someone who has such a horrible attitude towards the rest of the non Korean community. If anything, he should be praising all the crappy countries in these kind of interviews, considering the fact that he now is somewhat of a pro gamer and should, according to me, at least try to act as such. Hopefully he'll get some media training before anything else in the CJ house.

To be honest I'd rather see NonY, Draco, Mondragon, JF, ClouD or anyone with at least some charisma or someone who would show some enthusiasm for that huge huuuuuuuuge shot.

Anyways, i hope he does good, and that's only because a foreigner needs to do well. Other then that i hope he fails in his post-korea gaming career. God what a huge d**k.
