Logging in for the first time in a long time to say goodbye. I gave up on SC2 a long time ago, surprised IdrA lasted this long. I think he really wanted to make esports work but it just wasn't gonna happen. I'll always remember the early days of SC2 where he truly was one of the best players in the world. After that he would only only have scattered success but he was always interesting to follow and had one of the best streams. Maybe he can do one last stream for old times sake? I'm sure a "IdrA's last SC2 stream" would bring in a lot of viewers.

I don't know if he reads this but good luck in the future Greg.

Goodbye Greg

You're pretty much the reason I registered 2 years ago and I'm sad to see you go but also happy for you that you're moving forward.
Best of luck in the future and don't forget that you still have fans out there cheering for you and hoping you'll succeed!

It would be degrading. His playing skills have atrophied since he gave up competitive play. Best to remember him by replays of him going toe-to-toe against the very best players in the world and either beating them or coming tantalizingly close to winning. Even in a game he didn't enjoy.

This makes me really sad, Idra was always my favorite player and I'd always watch him stream and all that.. and I was just getting back into SC2 and now this is putting me away again :/

I never got to meet him RL or anything, I always wanted to but considering that its half the world away and now he's officially stopped.. damn.

At least there are good memories.

My happiest moment in SC2. GG GL and HF!!!

EDIT:
I think that was our finest moment as a FC. The finest moment for any FC anywhere.

Must... not...cry... T.T

I hope this thread never dies, we need to keep IdrA's legacy alive, and remember all the great moments he gave us.

I could see him start playing stuff like Starbow and DotA 2 in the future, but I think he is just gonna take a step back from gaming and lay low for a while.
