I had to grin as I was reading Idras interview. When you know more about players its even more entertaining to watch games. For example when you see some nice wtf?! moments and stuff.

IDRA:
Who do you think will go far in this tournament?
I think the final four will be Iefnaij Mondragon Nony and myself, although that could change depending on who advances from C. I could imagine ret advancing from Mondragon's bracket if he gets C2. I don't really see any upsets happening, although the eurotrash will consider it an upset when me and Nony advance.

Thats half true. I epxect Nony to come far but not you idra!

Idra's interview sounds just blunt to other Terran players. Too bad it sounds whiny/arrogant to players of any other race though. Notice how he's the only one of the 16 to "predict" himself in the finals.

Nice interviews. Iefnaij fan here too, I hope he makes it to finals.

I love his little 'eurotrash' comment.

He really shines as a grown up, mature and considerate representative for non-Korean progaming. Thumbs up.

Yes, I prefer 'eurotrash' to most people living in this silly country we call the US of A.

For the record, I am supporting all the Tawts.

Come on, we don´t get offended so easily, do we?

And he has a point: While a lot of americans overrate him, a lot of europeans do underrate him.

Mondragon just chooses to retrain him and wins a lot more so less to be pissed off about. Mondragon goes for a different image and does that well. I really think people that think he is just more humble and good mannered than all other players underestimate him.

Mondi isnt humble..
He is making 50 % fun of us
and 50 % logic : If u always say u will have a hard time.. u take away the pressure.. u arent as mad when u lose ect..

If u say : this guy , that one and me will probably make it.. u have pressure..

ok some players need this.. whatever..

Idra's just a bit .. strange.. dunno..

I understand Idra hate for everyone, he was probably mistreated a lot in his childhood for his uber geek look, but well he is chosing the wrong path and now he's disrespectful towards everyone. It's hard to think bad of him when you kinda imagine that background, however his comments are an hard challenge to people nerves T_T

Mondragon:
Your first opponent will be MYM.Dreiven.
Especially against Dreiven it will be very tough since he's a very good player and a very cool dude. Will be fun to watch and I hope I can rely on my luck.

I really recomment this match too. Dreiven is always spectacular to watch. His macro is korea like which makes his games very cool to watch.

And he is using dark archons in pvz. I love that staff.

but I had that grid. Mondragon and Dreiven are the two players I am cheering for
