It's only one player now of course, but with EG not going, foreigners not doing that well, and the grass starting to look greener elsewhere.. Seems to me either it'll become more of the isolated highest ideal place or the other pros in there (with the resources) may consider shopping outside more as well. Or a mix of course, though door number two sounds pretty good to me. | ||

Now I'm waiting to see Liquid leave as well, since IdrA was obviously the most determined, disciplined, experienced and because of that successful foreign progamer there, and then GSL will fall apart. | ||

I am a fan of Idra, and not just because I am a zerg player. I consider GSL to be the best of the best, and I would have loved to see him succeed there and win a tournament. That said, I do think that he is suffering from being, imho, the clearly #2 best zerg in the world (NesTea being the best, Idra being second, and then some others are behind those two), and him thinking zerg being underpowered, I don't think he saw a lot of chances for success. Especially considering the new map pool, that isn't on the ladder, and requires good practice partners. IM did in my opinion show in the team league the importance of good teamwork, with the way they played on the new maps. His chances of winning good money from SC2 is clearly higher in the US. Not only because he will be, by far, the best player in the US (my opinion, again), but because the scene is expanding, more and more is happening, while the GSL structure is kind of set at least for a year it seems. I am sad that he chose to come back, and it will mean I have less interest in the GSL - but I will still watch it and learn from the best of the best (who I consider them to be). And of course, I'd wish him the best of luck. ... if this was decided some time ago, I do think it's bad manner not to inform gomtv earlier. Not because of clide / zenio, but because they should have been given a chance to get another code S player and another code A player into their tournaments. But maybe the timing wasn't set in stone, so he thought he might have a chance to play in GSL march before leaving. Either way ... sad news to me. I guess ... JulyZerg with his epicness will be my new favourite | ||

One less player to root for in the GSL. I'm getting REALLY curious about what's going down in 5 days and aprox 3 hours now. If I wasn't before. | ||

Then someone else put Zenio in B and MC in A, so they two people that kind of had a grudge with Idra, so Clide/Zenio will probably win B and have to face MVP/MC who will probably win A. An excellent long troll from Idra. gg wp If it is true that he knew that he would not participate in the GSL already during the ceremony, then that is disappointing. I couldn't care less about his anger tantrums or bold statements, he is has his way and is an interesting figure in the e-sports scene. But to intentionally sabotage another persons chance in a tournament like GSL, out of spite, is fucking pathetic. This is a perfect example bad manner in my opinion, and something I would expect of a child. | ||
