Just putting this out there.

Idra's last tweet = Goodbye to zerg

All those involved in audiofiles are showmatches with his new race.



Idra to go protoss. That itg episode where Idra was calling toss players retards was all part of the plan.

People in the know have known for months that Idra has been practicing with toss for the last couple of months and is now ready to show what he's got.




That his micro sucks ass? His infestor micro is bad enough, I shudder to think of him trying to use sentries and templar.

His micro isn't bad. The belief that IdrA can't macro is either from the belief that Macro/Micro is a Zero-sum game or that the only micro-able units Zerg has are Queens, Infestors, and Burrowed Roaches.

Zerg players dont micro their infestors during a battle because most of the time they spent all their energy and they become completely useless for a good minute and more

This thread is going in rounds. The same shit gets posted every 5 pages or so.
Nevertheless I'm going to give my 2 cents even though it will probably never be read by anyone because the thread keeps getting like 20 pages of posts every hour or so.

I'm not a huge fan of EG's PR people, I do like the players but they have had some issues with PR lately. The whole SOTG/iNcontroL issue and the Puma/Milkis incident were handled poorly. Both turned up to be blown way out of proportion/had some actual reasons behind them. If HuK is indeed going to EG this whole announcing an announcement seems rather dickish move by them. I doubt EG would do this kind of hyping on Team Liquid's forum if they were to buy one of their players. The fact that admins let this thread (and the trolling + EG people PMing users with videolinks etc) go on kinda makes me hesitant to believe this whole HuK to EG thing. I know I wouldn't let them use my site to hype their new acquisition from my team (even though tl.net and Liquid Pro team are trying to separate themselves a bit).

Also the White-Ra speculation. He signed with tt ESPORTS only a couple of months ago. Why wouldn't EG have signed him when he was a "free agent" rather than now spend money to get him off his contract (SteelSeries and ThermalTake are competitiors so I doubt there'd be co-operation/co-sponsoring).

The EG is forming a GSTL team with other foreign players seems sort of unbelievable to me. The first price is only ~28000 USD divided to all the players and could have lots of conflicting dates with other events like MLG.

New EG league sort of sounds the most believable, but they did just start another EGMC so I dunno about that one either.

IMO people are jumping into conclusions too much.
Also stop saying EG is "poaching" HuK. Even if it turns out he's going from Liquid to EG it's not "poaching" it's trading/buying/free agency. The whole Puma thing was managed to make into something way bigger than it actually was by misinformed posts.

Haha, Idra's playstyle is fitting only for zerg, so a raceswitch would be nonsence. Idra is macro only. His Unit control is way too poor for playing terran or protoss.


you know he played terran in BW right

BW Terran is really different compared to SC2 Terran

Yes, its even harder, takes even better unit control and much harder macro. if he could play at a top level in bw with terran, sc2 terran is a cake walk

He didn't play at a top level.

Greg is quitting Zerg and playing Protoss now. Onemoregame.tv will be streaming training sessions as a series of top protoss players including Liquid`Huk and White_Ra instruct Greg on playing Protoss. Obviously he had to back out of IEM as his Protoss play is not high enough to compete at that level yet.

Sounds very reasonable if you ask me. Could also explain why he hasn't been streaming much lately. I'd be interested to check his match history and see what races he has been playing.


Not sure why he would do this when currently zerg is ahead of protoss.

Good luck getting him to agree with you there.


Good luck having over half of the community to agree with anyone on balance issues. I doubt anyone takes his hyperbolic statements about not being able to beat Protoss serious. Don't act like you've never said something stupid about imbalance after losing a game to someone, everyone does it atleast once.

Anyway that is offtopic and not related to this thread one bit. I am waiting on audio file number 3!
