Can someone give an overview of the interview? I'm at work, so I can't watch the youtube video. Thanks.

Don't think Idra was whining dude. He was just sharing his viewpoint. Being a very straight forward guy, Idra didn't sugar coat his thoughts.

Thanks artosis for the interview - looking forward to Idra's new content.

I wouldn't be so sure about Zergs in the next GSL top 16, they said they were going to add 4 new maps, all of which are big, with easy 3rds so Zergs might get a decent chance.

Nice interview.

Now talking about idra, I think he's just too much of a whiner. This constant whining of zerg being too weak is not going to change anything, if he keeps thinking his race is weak then that's not going to make him win more.

As a master league random/protoss player I admit say that it can be frustrating to play zerg on small maps, but the main reason so few protoss and zerg make it to Ro8 or Ro4 is because they are underrepresented. When the game was very new terran was a lot stronger, you can say op, because people did not know how to deal with them. Everyone picked terran and now we have an overdose of GSL terran players. The balance changes that were made help to even things out, and people found out new strategies. The game is a lot more fair than before and it's going in the right direction. If only guys like idra (and everyone else who whines about balance) stops whining and starts thinking of new ways to win then the situation might improve more.

Look at fruitdealer and nestea, look at mc. They did things differently and won GSL's.


What would happen if we didnt talk about balance, if we didnt "whine" about it ? What if he is correct, that zerg is in a pretty shitty state? Also Idra was really pessimistic, but maybe he has a reason. He said so himself, he has been losing soo much practise games.

Also I remember Idra being cocky and "arrogant" earlier, said he would win this, win that. He can also be optimistic.

And yes, I remember Fruitdealer whining about zerg being poor, but cause he played so well he still won. That did not take away the point that zerg did need a buff, and got it.

Thank you so much for the interview Artosis

I used to be a hater almost a full year ago but the content you give for the community, especially the interviews with foreigners in Korea is just top notch stuff. Thanks again.

In the paid stream thread I said the necessary elements for a successful paid stream are: famous pro, hq, scheduled streaming, good analysis. Looks like Idra's stream will have most if not all of these. If Idra wants to start making money on his stream this is a great start.

"I know that the time is really bad for Europeans so I'll start recording vods". Oh my god, if only that was standard. Thanks Artosis, interesting interview as always. Looking forward to IdrAs analysis as well.
