Look for EG Masters Cup (EGMC).


Hmm the earliest EGMC that shows up on Liquipedia is Season V which apparently took place in mid 2011, so that's roughly one year later than the timeframe ohampatu was talking about. :S

i dont know about you, but when i see something is the 5th instance of something, i assume their is a 1st-4th too.

So? How many players arent?

Yes. TaeJa doesnt take 25k seriously.



You're getting trolled pretty hard bro.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Weird because Greg backed him up on it and said it was a pity no one globally knew about it.

wait greg agreed that he was the best in the world? that proves everything, im a faster swimmer than Phelps


go watch king of the beta

idra was arguably the best before release,
im not a fanboy, and think he has fell quite far. BUT he was king at one point, everybody was scared of him

nobody ever won an MIT laptop from EG's tournament to this day ( is now a teamleague, it was a solo league before that and greg was the end boss, never lost)

would be nice to see that idra again, but i think its long past, glad for his performances today though


TesteR says hi. Also Genius, TOP, RainbOw, FruitDealer. Hell even White-Ra beat IdrA convincingly back then.

I think IdrA can 2-0 IceCream if it goes to late game though. He's definitely not looking very strong in TvZ (IceCream that is)


He beat Tester in the finals of King of the beta (and Tester was considered to be the best korean at the time). The others you mentioned except fruitdealer made their names after release. Whether you are an Idra hater or not, it is a fact that Idra was considered by many, including Koreans, to be the best player in the world from the beta until a few months after release. There's actually nothing to argue about because it's true.


woot somebody else who actually remembers


I do remember. That was one tournament. There are others where he lost to TesteR and White-Ra quite convincingly. And I disagree with the fact that they made their names after release. You clearly didn't watch enough starcraft 2 mister hitpoint, TOP, TheStC, Cella, Genius, TheWinD were some of the best players in the world at that time.


They weren't considered the very best though. If you said Maka I'd agree, but you didn't. Tester was the other guy that people made arguments for being the best, and Idra got the better of whitera overall, he wasn't considered better. King of the Beta was just one tournament, but it was the biggest and best tournament at the time. Winning that was easily enough to make an argument for best in the world, and it did.


he also has never let a peson win the laptop that was the prize for 'beating the gracken' in EG's solo league
which i mentioned, which was 'many' tournaments. i just dont know why peopel shit on his past, its like hitting a
guy while he is down


I'm not shitting on his past, like I said he was a top contender, he just didn't "rape" or "dominate" the beta as you seem to suggest. Also I don't know what you're talking about when you say EG solo league; in fact I have never even heard of that solo league (do note I followed SC a lot even then) and it doesn't show up in his TLPD or Liquipedia achievements.

http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/leagues/747_EG_Masters_Cup__1
this was the cup, but he was the 'end boss' the winner had to beat for a laptop
http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/leagues/749_EG_Masters_Showmatch__1

http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/leagues/830_EG_Masters_Cup__2
again, he was the 'end boss' they did a showmatch with
http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/leagues/831_EG_Masters_Showmatch__2

idk how many were done
i asked inc once if they would bring it back, apparently they like the team league better

and sorry to accuse people of shitting on him, but imo he was easily the best foreigner, and
if he wasn't better than the 5 or so koreans that were playing, they were pretty scared of him

but that is all in the past, just wanted to show people he was actualy good back then, cause
people think he wasn't

GL Idra, hard road ahead of you
I am become death, for I am the destroyer of worlds.....You will be missed KT Violet!!!

And you can do better?


No, but 100+ Europeans and 500+ Koreans could.


Yeah, no. Please don't overestimate the European scene. And I don't think there are 500 Koreans who could beat IdrA, either. Maybe 100-150.

I have no clue what that means, I mean taeja lost because protoss has a 100% win rate vs terran.

This is also 100% true and cannot be disproved.
