This is a pretty interesting interview...especially the parts about IdrA feeling that his televised appearance was a turning point in his career, and also that he should have beaten Smile in MSL offlines.

Greg gives great interviews.

Pretty cool interview... I will say that I got the feel that the interviewer thought he was the interviewee... as he was answering his own questions every time.

Either way, much thanks

Why are people disrespecting Rekrul and IdrA?

IdrA is really good at starcraft, and Rekrul is really good at poker. Can you at least respect that?

It is true that neither of them are exactly paragons of good manner and kindness, and both of them can be blunt at times, but they're human, humans can be like that.

Don't compare Idra with Rekrul. Rekrul is funny.

Thanks for the interview, interesting read.

Yeah Rekrul has more charisma, and so people find his cockiness funny more often.

I still don't see why IdrA deserves disrespect.

Most of my lack of respect towards Idra is caused by his behavior ingame. I don't see why I shold respect him if he obviously doesn't respect his opponents. He's a really good player, props to him for getting in korea and getting a progamer licence but I don't consider this a reason to respect him.

fixed, but basically if you read about the matches between him and f91, or his ingame behavior against strelok(i think it was him), i guess these are some of the reasons that people don't like idra too much.

also, rekrul spices up TL. its funny to read flame wars between him and other people.

Are you this dense? People WANT to like Idra. They want to cheer on the foreigner in Korea, but he's thrown away any good will by being a socially retarded, disrespectful dick at every major appearance. Maybe people disrespect him because he's disrespectful to others? What a concept.

Great interview and suprisingly polite answers I hope Idra does well in Korea.
