"I find my bitter/sarcastic/angry posts on Teamliquid far more entertaining than anything said in game."
So true.
So I'm guessing by his answer to the best foreign terran question that his opinion of Jinro changed recently...?
|
"Who, in your opinion, are the best players from each race?
IdrA: Nestea, MVP, MC."
So he had a change of heart about Nestea?
It's funny how he went from "next season a good player will win the GSL" to "Nestea isn't as good as everyone thinks he is" to Nestea being the best Zerg player. Good interview.

He said Nestea has a knack for defending cheeses, so that might as well make him the best with the current state of the game.

IdrA has mentioned during one of his livestreams that at the time he didn't know anything about NesTea except that he(NesTea) always cheesed him on ladder and said that his comments about NesTea are incredibly biased because of those ladder games. And IdrA obviously felt his run in GSL2 wasn't that impressive(2 ZvZs and finals against a one trick pony). IdrA has now mentioned that since then NesTea has proven himself to be the best zerg in the world by posting consistent results against really stiff competition where every other zerg fails. So unlike Artosis(who calls someone the best player in the world every other bo3) IdrA actually waits for someone to prove themselves consistently before calling them decent. This probably holds true to MVP as well for when IdrA said there was nothing special about MVP during the Gisado KOTH showmatches but since then MVP has shown he's not just a TvZ one trick pony.

Im guessing that at this point he considers Jinro more as a korean than a foreign player.

evoli: Real talk: Favorite alcoholic beverage? I’m pretty sure you’re of the legal drinking age in Korea.
IdrA: Whiskey and tea is pretty awesome, and I don’t think its really drank at all in the west. It’s big in China and popular in Korea. It kicks ass.
I would like more details on this... what type of whisky and what type of tea?
edit: Here's a game between Idra and Strelok from the Machinima Realm Invitational

Great interview, I enjoy listening to IdrA's predictions on this GSL and the next one.
I agree that MVP will probably be taking this GSL unless MK gets very very lucky.

So he said in the artosis interview that he was going to start streaming in 2 hour blocks daily at 2pm kst. Perhaps something to add to the op.

IdrA you're the best we're really looking forward to you and your future stream/work. At the start of the first video could you please do a brief explanation of your hotkeys and why you do them? Like if you have queens hotkeyed separately what the benefit is.

I believe he has all of his hatches on 4 and a Queen on 5-8. You might be able to find it in one of his TL posts or an interview...I'm sure he said he set it up like that.
He double taps the Queen hotkey which centers the camera to the queen so he can target the hatchery with inject quickly. It seems like it is slow but it is easy and fast. He also said that with the new hotkey rebindings, he might try the backspace method except rebinding with backspace.
