At this point I would suggest consulting with a sports psychologist. It's nothing unusual, hell ,it's fairly common in fact what he's experiencing. Good luck Greg. I'm here for you <3

Heres whats going to happen.

1-Everyone is going to hate on IdrA and say he has "Mental problems" has "fallen off" or "Just sucks now"
2-Next couple tournaments IdrA will place high in a few and win 1
3-Everyone will jump on the IdrA fanboi again.
4-IdrA will slump
*Repeat 1-4 for the next couple years.

People forget hes actually one of the best Macro zergs (i would say THE best if not for DRG, Even artosis said that idrA has better macro then nestea). in the game and with the new patch its only going to help him. This isn't the first time we've seen IdrA do this and it won't be the last. Still number 1 in my eyes greg!

Well if he isn't happy and doesn't see a way to get enjoyment out of SC2 he should quit. I would be very sad, but his well being is of course way more important.

You're overrating his macro. While his macro is obviously very good, it is not a step above korean macro. It's obviously his biggest strength but it doesn't completely make up for his average unit control and weakness to strategic builds (or cheese). Having good macro can only get you so far. To be the best you must have the complete package.

Guys, a sports psychologist can't make Idra like SC2, if he hates the game then he hates the game.


I can't imagine the SC2 scene without Idra, he is the entire reason I follow SC2. And the reason why I play Zerg
Starcraft 2 was designed to have a best race. You play the worst one.

If IdrA wants some change in pace he could study part time for the next few years while still being a pro-gamer. If he wants to pursue a physics education, then he could start out doing so remotely. Every semester for the first two years there will be at least one or two purely theoretical courses, with lectures that can be videotaped and assignments that could be handed in online. Important tests can be done in cooperation with a local college/university and he can be assigned a mentor/buddy for further questions. Only takes maybe 10 hours a week and it's a good preparation for a later 'real' education.

he will NEVER EVER do something half-assed. you can be sure about that.

time to cheer him up guys, he obviously needs some more fun at starcraft

im thinking of some kind of handdrawn-mutalisk-picture-contest for our cheering-up.. everyone adds a self-drawn mutalisk with the stuff he sends and then he has a ton of mutalisks and maybe we make them public afterwards or he can show and point out his favorite or whatever

even if they look totally bad, i sent one :D
IdrA!

Everyone, since reddit is on a "be kind to IdrA"-thing I'd appreciate upvotes on this post I made.

MLG Spring in 2days 10h -- I hope he doesn't stress himself over it. At this point in time he needs to learn to let go more than anything else.

Hoping for some fun changes up by IdrA in MLG, i think he might suprise us with some random big zerg pushes pre 10minutes, hope he watched DRG rick roll Terran the other day after losing two big pushes pre 10minutes and still being able to out macro the Terran.

I just hope that Idra doesn't leave the scene, I think that most of his fans are fans of his because of his personality, if he can move to casting or coaching or something it would be the best.

No offence but idra would be the worst coach ever :p I really hope that he continues his play, first i became a fan of his personality, but soon i became a fan of his playstyle as well, his muta play vs T was awesome, good memories
