You know he probably still has a lot of money, and prolly he is going to attend to a college that you probably would not get an acceptance from.

Just sayin'. He is or was a progamer, don't know if he is going to quit, he is not an idiot. His intellectual capacity is higher than yours. Wouldn't be surprised if IdrA would be the one who is ordering you a Big Mac, instead of you ordering him.

I think it's a factor. But mostly I guess it's just losing. Let's be honest, noone likes losing.


idra hated the game when he was winning too

I've watched his stream quite a bit and I can't recall a time where he said "this game is fucking terrible" when he was winning. Mostly it was against protoss players all-inning or terrans getting cheeky with mines/drops.


he has said it plenty of times on talkshows, and people close to him (incontrol) have also stated it several times

So does that mean he hates the game if he's winning? I don't think so.

I think he is fiercely competitive and small things like bad players getting easy wins against him really gets into his head. If he truly hates the game even when the likes of Innovation vs Life are playing, I admire his patience to stick with it for so long.


loving to win and loving the game are two completely different things

So I guess you have it all figured out: he hates the game, he wants out of it.

Why is he still around after 3 years of playing this awful game?


because he makes 96k a year

Are you just making shit up or is that the actual number?


Yeah, Source on that, player salaries are pretty obscure so I would love to know where the 96k figure is from.

I would assume he is guessing 8k a month based off Incontrol saying 4-6k being in the ball park and multiple people saying that EG's top players make a 6 figure salary.

I would assume Jaedong and Stephano getting maybe paid those numbers. And since IdrA would be the 3rd highest player based on recognition and visibility it is kind of possible but highly unlikely he made 96k a year.

It doesn't work either way, most of the players are around 19 year olds, where most teenagers have those sort of jobs.

''But they missed out on higher education''

Plenty of people get their higher education later on


It just doesn't make sense in any way

Greg just tweeted : "thank you all for the support, i will not be leaving esports"

Seems like he is going to switch as a caster or switch to LoL/DotA.
I don't see any other reason why he shouldn't say Starcraft 2.

I have a hard time seeing Idra playing a team game like Dota2/LoL, but I'd still watch regardless.

This is one time where I think even if what you say is true, it still might happen.

Um so the alliance is affiliated with EG I thought(http://gosugamers.net/dota2/news/23584-alliance-picks-up-nth-and-naniwa). Both Idra and naniwa are better than 99% of players. (I don't know how to source this one.)
What you say is that they hate each other, I have not seen. Naniwa I believe thinks he's a better overall player than Idra currently (I personally am only low masters and don't believe that my opinion is good enough to really know who is better).

I haven't heard Idra say anything about Naniwa other than commenting on his playstyle in his stream saying that its really good as long as "X" doesn't happen.(I would like the vod, but idra does not have vods enabled) I do believe that they respect each other and the alliance is a good opportunity for Idra. I heard that EG is working out paying him for a while longer while he looks for other opportunities. (http://sotg-sc2.blogspot.com/2013/05/sotg-ep93.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+State-Of-The-Game+(State+of+the+Game+Podcast))

Other players who I thought might be interested in the alliance I listed there. (mostly european players who can play multiple playstyles and have good units control. I would have added two more player KawaiiRice and State but they are not in europe.)

IMHO IdrA wouldn't fit into DotA/LoL, because the skill requirement of those games are way lower than Starcraft's. Since he complains about lack of skill requirement in Starcraft II, it is not likely, but It would be a pain to see him in some moba team.

It could also mean Broodwar; which while awesome probably wouldn't happen... but imagine the stream views of IdrA playing Broodwar Terran; especially after this whole incident.

What is people opinions that thanks to Demuslim stream numbers, EG wasn't dependent on idras popularity any longer and was just waiting for him to make mistake and just kicking him without telling incontrol or idra himself?
