From Idra's Twitter

"thank you all for the support, i will not be leaving esports"

"gonna be doing a mini real talk with @itmeJP tomorrow night"

That's some great info - thx for that!

I am not the biggest fan of IdrA, but he sure makes for interesting storylines and is quite the character - good and bad.

I miss those times when Idra was playing in Korea in the beginning of SC2

I hope he finds a new team/sponsors and gets more positive attitude toward the game.

When I watch his stream Im always blown away by the knowledge he has.

How soon will we know what IdrA's next course of action will be?

Edit: Forget that I asked. I'm eager to hear what he has to say to JP.

Can anyone tell me who are Idra's two favourite authors? He mentioned them here:

, but i can't hear it, and i would like to read something from them.

Hope to see IdrA possibly in a Korean Starcraft 2 team once again, and thus the rise of the Gracken begins.

Well, well, well...

I'm kind of surprised and not surprised at the same time.

Well it's all up to Idra now. Perhaps a big huge brutal change such as this one will shake Idra up, I somehow feel that this team change might even do Idra some good. A kind of ... when you hit the bottom the only way left to go is up situation. Idra said he's not going to be leaving esports. So we can still expect things out of him. Let's wait and see!

Idra is the soul of starcraft, no Idra, no bm, no fun, im sick and tired of all the super mannered guys, no entertainment at all. i bet many people actually prefer the game ending with "fuck you" than a robotic pseudo mannered "gg".

Teams I think idra could join. Sk, Azubu, FXO, CoL. No real reason for them, but I don't see him joining a liquid, liquid players are very nice at least in public, in private who knows or cares lol. SK is small with just MC on the team lol, and it could work out for IDra and SK, Azubu has money, FXO has money. CoL really could use another player to help boost that roster. While idra will be expensive, maybe not as expensive as he was orginally, I bet his contract puts him on a short leash.

Looking forward to the JP talk. Hope IdrA continue to focus on SC2. Any team would be lucky to have IdrA in their rooster. He has a huge fanbase and his marketing value is top of the hill in SC2. The SC2 scene would be boring if everyone was the same, gg mannered types. Diversity keeps it interesting. Ppl saying hes a dont give a f... kinda guy, but I think the truth is he is extremely passionate about his gaming, and that leads to some not so thought through statements... (Like when you have a fight with your girlfriend/boyfriend and you say you hate her/him, but you really love her/him).
Hope he finds his rythm again. Hes one of very few foreigners who has the potential to tear up the Korean dominance.

I was told just before that IdrA plays (a bit of) LoL, is that true? if so, does anyone know his summoners name?

Could be interesting

My thoughts exactly, sc2 is full of thin-skins that can't even take an ounce of bm. Imagine if they played a game like counter strike or dota (ORIGINAL DOTA not dota2) hahahaha

eSports strategy is more manner than most eSports, slightly above fighting games scene, where *some* smack talk is expected but nothing like zero-tolerance here in SC2.
