All I have to say is that two of the best non-korean players I know rate dimaga as a top non-korean zerg and idra just dismantled him with straight up good play. He played an amazing game against strelok that only gets talked about because of his lame remarks, but infact it was an AMAZING game by both. He goes 1/2 against a protoss and could have won.

Aside from anything personally about idra I think , I would say that the last 2 weeks have shown me very very strong play from him. I am getting the feeling that we will be seeing it more and more.

This video was awesome.

Thx dan/greg
For sure.

And as Artosis says in the vid, love him or hate him he's all the foreigners got in Korea right now.

really wrong idea behind this
its hard to admit, but probably no matter how often had you played the outcome would be the same
its not always amount of time = results
you still need to have talent to be good at video games, esp starcraft


Hard work > Talent.


talent beats hard work if talent works hard

true however I think a talentless person can only go so far no matter how much work they put in


I definitely think IdrA has allot of talent, and works very hard.

Oh me too, I didn't mean to imply that idra was talentless (if that was how it came off to others)

Hard work = Talent

-- Pablo de Sarasate

Actually - hang on...

Hard Work - Talent = hopeless
Talent - Hard Work = lazy
Talent + Hard Work = Epic

Figuring out what your talent is (and what it isn't) and working hard to make the most of them = genius.

Idra is an asshole, but he is all we have, and I WILL root for any fellow American.

I will entirely cheer and watch every game idra plays.

Him as a symbol and professional CJ entus gamer and him as a person are very seperate for me and I don't hold my feelings towards his personality/behavior against him as a symbol/gamer.

Have you watched any of his recent replays? They are entertaining as hell.

Recently he has demolished dinot and dimaga in bo3's, played an amazing game against strelok, played great against a more experienced protoss in gom and humbly accepted his defeat against shuttle. Like I've said 50 times, he is really showing impressive play recently and it makes me excited!

Totally agreed. I would like to add thanks to NeverGG for taking over camera duties and to tasteless for being around and giving Idra support.
