I am not the only one who thinks that Zerg is a piece of **** right now :D

Btw, I love Artosis interviews overall but those including IdrA are the best! Keep it up, it's so awesome actually!
I really liked the background (the flowers) and how you were dressed, awesome to see IdrA bring his leather gracket.

Also mad props for IdrA setting up a nice stream with some schedule, you are great!

Thanks for the interviews. interesting about the bunker on meta. never knew zerg actually got that completely behind. agree on the choya statement too. that guy's whole game is 1base all-in and 2 base entire game and attack. I think jinro will beat MKP however

Even in this interview he leaves early, haha.

Great interview! Thx to Idra & Artosis. Looking forward to the "Idra Show".

It's pathetic how hard Idra wants Nestea to lose just so he can complain more about Zerg. I was planning cheering for MVP, but now I'd really love to see Nestea taking the whole tournament



Where did you get he wants him to lose? Idra thinks Nestea WILL lose. He does NOT want him to lose.


No. He wants him to lose. He says that he will lose, but you can see that he wants it. He wants all the zerg to be bad, so he can than have excuse for his own failings. I've met people like that and honestly I can't stand them.

But that's just my opinion, I might very well be wrong.

Why wouldn't he want Nestea to lose? It's not like he really knows either player personally and the worse zerg does, the more likely blizzard/gomtv is to do something about the race/maps.

Which part of the video is the part where i can see he wants him to lose?
Excuse for his failings? What failings. He's the 2nd top Zerg in Code S.

I'm not an Idra fanboy by all means and I think your hate for him is getting the best of you.

You are entitled to your own opinion, however I think it's a wrong one.
I have a dream, that some day I wouldn't see any imba comments in GSL threads.

That's really great news about the streaming. I would miss his stream 3/4 of the time before. Idra analysis on games is always wonderful and insightful as well, can't wait.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

Idra explanation VODS?

This will be like the day 9 daily on CRACK ( make the grack joke all you want with this one ). I am so glad that there will be vods up and I have nothing but respect to progamers who explain their thoughtprocess to the community as a whole. Thumbs up for IdrA.

When it's your opinion you don't really get to say what other people want like it's a fact, you have no idea whether he wants him to lose or not yet you're making grand assumptions of his personality based on some pre-defined archetype of person that you hate.

Why is it that everyone tries to read into the lines with what Idra says more than practically anyone else? You can't be both brutally honest (remember that honesty doesn't have anything to do with an argument's 'correctness') and super subversive at the same time.

IdrA answered this question times and times again. Although he thinks Zerg is weak atm, he will not change races (although he is playing toss a bit) because he invested so much time into Zerg.


what terrible logic, are u sure he's a pro? He could invest the time from now until the next big tourney practicing another race. If he's as good as people say he is it should be no problem.

Tyler, you should sue him for pirating your life when idra switches to toss. You'll have plenty of evidence then

Thanks for the interview.

Idra is right IMO.

btw to the person who asked if anyone thinks Idra has a legitimate chance to win a GSL, obviously. He gets better every season, puts in time and effort and has loads of talent. He is just as capable of winning as anyone else in the top half of code S players. Fruitdealer and Boxer looked unbeatable just a few seasons ago and then we had some 16 year old kid and an aged 2v2 progamer smashing face. Now a foreigner has made top 4 twice in a row. So yes, I do think he could win one, and you're being a bit silly for thinking it's outside of the realm of possibility.

I'm virtually certain he wants nestea to lose and he would have to be pretty stupid not to if he truly thinks the state of zerg is this bad. It's not like he plays the game for fun or that his main motivation for proving zerg is bad is to "have excuse for his own failings" (btw only one zerg made as far as he); the game is currently his livelihood.

Hahaha "until the next big tourney"? It would take many months and there could be several balance patches before he got good enough with the new race to play at the level required to participate in GSL.
