It's always interesting to hear Idra's interviews because he's a lot more candid that most other players. I don't really understand why Artosis didn't ask more about the match against Jinro -- he almost acts like he doesn't want to hurt Idra's feelings or something. Why not ask some questions? He's a professional player, he should be able to handle the questions!

Artosis, please do more of these interviews with other non-korean players. I'd love moooooar GSL converage.

Bring a big Ret interview!

He always seems much more upbeat and insightful when he's interviewed in person.

Was incredibly fun to watch you this season, IdrA.

good attempt to make idra look like less of a ragequitter.

the zerg bias is pretty obvious though.

Great, Idra aiming to start a new era of Zerg QQ. I'd like his new humble attitude if only it didn't stem from his view of Zerg as being vastly underpowered. At some point you'd expect him to just switch to Toss or Terran and own everyone, but somehow if feel that's never going to happen.

I appreciate him trying to create more content for SC2 fans, if only he wasn't so painfully biased.

It's kind of ridiculous to expect him to switch at this time. Not saying he won't - you never know - but let's get real. Switch after all the time invested? And what if Blizzard decides to balance the game, whenever it might be?

It's his decision. All Z's complain about balance including Nestea who commented his entry to Ro8 as 'pure luck' or 'miracle'. Even T/P players agree. (Remember they've got Zerg team mates)

I was impressed that Idra didn't take a shot at Jinro. He's clearly taking a high road despite being cheesed. I sincerely hope Blizzard fixes the games so that I can start watching the games with pleasure again.

great interview. i'm always surprised, for some reason, at idra's ability to articulate his thoughts quite well. he's always struck me as being the type of person who would excel at the maths and sciences, but he clearly has a good handle on the language arts. not that he's insanely eloquent, but just that he's clear and concise.

nice interview, really honest. i'm not a big idra fan because of his flaming (which he calls being honest or whatever) but i do appreciate his honesty in interviews. It's too bad that (correct me if im wrong) koreans ppl are kind of adversed to being really honest about what they feel about other players (when its negative) due to korean culture. (i read somewhere that being negative about ppl in general isn't much appreciated.) however, i would really love to see these kind of honest interviews with more players.. nice job and thanks artosis!

Does anyone know where IdrA will be putting up his vods? The interview died before he could say it.

My guess: ustream.tv/user/eg-idra/videos
But otherwise, the word will probably get out in no time in at least the idra fanclub-thread.

This is the first time that I've seen, or I guess heard, IdrA analyze his own play and based on only ever experiencing him rage-quit, I have somewhat of a new respect for him. Though it still bothers me that at his level of play, and exposure, that he will rage-quit, I appreciate the fact that he also owns up to when he knows he got lucky in a game, or probably shouldn't have won and then appreciates the fact that he was able to. Great interview. Thank you very much. Keep up the great work!

He sometimes does it on the eg-site in those hyperx-sponsored pro-tip videos.
(well, at least once, for his game on mlg against qxc where the latter went for raven with seeker missile.)

i hope you realized that you not only used the wrong "woe", but also mispelled the wrong "whoa".

Still, fun interview, always nice to hear peoples thoughts about balance and what not

Since it seems so vitally important to this thread, allow me:

woe/wō/Noun
1. Great sorrow or distress.
2. Things that cause sorrow or distress; troubles.

Hopefully that makes the above post must clearer now. I apologize for the mistake and will do my best not to make a similar one in the future.

Are there any other grammatical errors in any posts this thread you'd like to discuss? Should we make another thread for this?

Idra: good sir, you appear to be somewhat lacking in intelligence. please refrain from posting until this is remedied, since it renders your opinions slightly less than correct and has a tendency to irritate more informed forum-goers.
