Seriously? I mean he does come off as a very witty guy indeed but he also seems the type to be a dick behind one's back. You know, the type that will mock you (not directly but with a whisper to his neighboring persons) for asking a question he knows the answer to, or because your jeans are out of fashion or some other trivial shit. Idk, he does have that superiority complex persona to him.

Nice interview and GL anyway Idra, still would be embarrassing not to finish in a podium position.

1) Europeans are far too touchy. Life is much more enjoyable if you relax a bit.

Dude, I honestly cant imagine anyone who is hyper competitive [and thus a top player in the foreign or kor scene] without having a narcissistic tendency.

The only question is weather they hide it or not.

This was a great interview, and I definitely am glad Idra responded so honestly. Much better reading than the dry, typical interview: "I respect all my peers, am just glad to be here, etc."

With that said, should Idra do a better job backing up his talk? Has Idra won anything yet?

Also, I haven't heard any comments from him about his WCG losses to Koll. I would've loved to read more about how he lost, why he lost, etc.

"As for my personality, I get angry when I lose" Heres some advice "1) Europeans are far too touchy. Life is much more enjoyable if you relax a bit."
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=98695 contains a bunch of his results from past year but nothing recent.

Also, after losing to Koll, he praised him and said that he was even more korean than Ret.

KAY, im step in here cause thats been said a lot [by touchy europeans]. Idra cant help if he gets angry over losing a game, its a flash moment response. Hes completely chill with the people afterwards, however. He doesn't hold grudges, he doesn't wake up in sweats or tear out his hair. Europeans jumping to attack Idra after a joke or screaming "were not touchy!! we dont need to relax!!!" isnt a flash moment response, its not a response you largely cant help, and you don't come to a softer conclusion after the moment has past. Europeans are too touchy, and ya do need to relax more.

"I have never wanted to put on a politically correct public persona. It would be far more boring for the fans and I would personally hate it."

Only if his play style is as fun as his manners

I wonder if Idra's arrogance fuels his talent, or his talent fuels his arrogance. The world may never know.
