All the senseless IdrA put downs on tl about him being nothing but an arrogant whiner is killin me. Its so far off it deserves bans allready. As if people thought he was whining in this interview... redic.

Actually listen to his words people.

As always thanks Artosis for doing what you do and same to you IdrA. gghf

I know these are pretty strong statements, but like the gracken, I dont hold back with what I think and dont care about being flamed or regarded silly.

That is some Western thinking, you might say. I agree foreigners have their varying strengths, but so do Koreans and Asians in general. It might sound like a cheesy workplace posting, but diversity actually yields good results. The overall success of the team oGs/Liquid is evidence.

actually idra mostly complains about maps. some maps and some maps with close positions have serious disadvantages for zerg. its a fact every pro agrees. zergs being super map dependent makes it weak obviously. you need to be lucky to get decent maps if you wanna accomplish something.

So much emphasis on one word, and you can't even spell it right. And you're from the US. You remind me of this guy:

Thanks Artosis though for the awesome interview, it's really interesting to hear IdrA's opinion on these things <:

Nice interview! On a side note, if Zerg is so 'Unbalanced' then why pick the race? Complaining about how unstacked your race is just shows the immaturity of it. Don't pick the race if your going to complain about it. Simple.

Idra is a great player, and regardless of what every you say to him, he was the king of the beta.
tbh its hard to be creative with zerg when you whole strategy is based on feing.

zzzz for starters he's been playing zerg sense beta. Its hard to just start playing a new race at the competitive level and still be at the top. Idra has said he has invested so much time into zerg that its pointless to change race as eventually blizzard will buff zerg or nerf something and then he'll want to go back to zerg due to it fitting his style.

Plain and simple.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Nice to see there's a humble side to idrA. Also nice to hear about upcoming analysis and scheduled broadcasts. SC2 is just an awsome thing, player-observer interaction is completely unique to the game and its great to see a prominent player taking it on wholeheartedly.
