Yes, Idra. Interview by Fomos.

Idra: "I am happy with my first win."
"My target is to get into the OSL itself."


[image loading]


CJ's (T)IdrA, representing America in the Starcraft division of the ESWC Asia Masters held on the 4th of May, defeated the protoss player Krupnyk Oleksii, and got his first tournament win.

The following is the interview with Idra.

- Your thoughts on your win.
▲ I am happy because this is my first win in a competition.

- You qualified through the losers' group.
▲ There were many matches so it was tough, but we played on the maps that I played often on so it wasn't much of a problem.

- You were widely recognized after your entry into CJ. Do you feel that your skills have improved after your arrival in Korea?
▲ Through joining a Progaming etam, I got to practice more and it was because of that that I managed to win today.

- You got your revenge against Krupnyk Oleksii ((P)(ua)White-Ra) whom you lost to in the semifinals.
▲ I think that Krupnyk Oleksii ((P)(ua)White-Ra) is the second strongest player in this tournament. I am happy that I managed to get my revenge on the player I lost to before.

- What do you hope to achieve in Korea and when do you think that will happen?
▲ The competition is very fierce so I cannot determine that. However, I will do my best to show good results.

- Your future targets as a progamer.
▲ I want to play in the Proleague and win games, and I also want to qualify for the Starleagues and produce good results. My greatest goal now is to qualify for the Starleague.

Bonus! Netizen's comments!
+ Show Spoiler +

- Why does he look so sick?

- The next (T)ElkY or (P)Grrrr... ? Looking forward to him!

- Bonjwa of Bad Manner. In the previous TL league (TSL), after getting raped by his opponent completely, instead of saying 'gg' he said 'U are Fucking noob. You win by doing stupidest shits. Fuck you." It was so funny.

- This guy said in an interview done by one of the foreign English sites that "Jang Min Ru (Super) is a weak version of me. He has okay macro, but he sucks at everything else. As long as I don't lose in build order, I will win." Then after that, when asked about Tossgirl, he said "Even if it is Tossgirl, I would prefer TvP to playing TvT with her." He said White-Ra is the second strongest player, but he says he's much better than him. This guy has some serious BM.

- No, he said this in English (I translated the previous one to English, so it's the same), ""U are Fucking noob. You win by doing stupidest shits. Fuck you." Idra has left the game." kekekekkekeke He said this in an actual interview

- Isn't this guy famous for being BM? He talked down (P)free in one of the previous interviews.

- Who the fuck talks like that? Don't get cocky because you live in Canada. I'll tell you in English, "you mother fucker."


I think that's quite enough =/
