Someone who know Idra better then me might say if im full of shit or not since I have no clue who the guy really is but the impression I got from him is as follow:

-Guy talk well in interview and present his idea and way of thinking about the game well.

- He was successfull in school (judging by the study he was about to begin when he decided to go PRO so he is an intelligent human being)

- He was not really successfull as a progamer in korea (probably good enough for a b-teamer but he know he was not going to be an A-teamer so after the HYPE he created when moving there, he need something else then RESULT to keep the hype up)

- He know who he can talk smack too and who he shouldnt (imagine if he would have win 3-2 vs Huk where the 2 win of Huk would be with canon rush. Comments about those games would have been different )

Look like someone that simply abuse the fact that when you throw some drama comment here and there you create discussion where you become the main subject.

Talk about me in a good or bad way as long as you talk about me. So basicly he is probably one of the player we talk the most about (this time its well deserved tho because of the win) and thats what he want

Look at most pro sport out there, there is always a star player that act like that somewhere. Create publicity and ITS FREE !

Might be wrong or not but thats the feeling I have.

lol quite spot on

he's the Phil Hellmuth of starcraft

I actually kind of like Idra's style, and I can understand where he's coming from with some of his BM. He BM's for the rest of us zergs... On the other hand why say GG if it was a shitty game with a cheese strat? As for calling out Huk, can anyone really comment on that. Artosis asked him a question and he responded honestly. It's not like he's making attack threads on the forums.

Seems kind of clutch that he won on Lost Temple, as he got the early victory and got the remaining 2 wins on home court. I see a lot of zergs having a tough time on Blistering Sands & Steppes due to the short rush distances. I was really impressed w/ the hydra play on Sands & the ultralisk timing on Metalopolis. Nice harrassment with zerglings to delay Tester's push.

In some of the matches against Tester (group and finals #2) he has the setup for an epic baneling bust only to have it countered by T1 forcefields. Well played by Tester but also kind of hard to deal with as zerg. I thought maybe he might've been able to come back from that... but I don't play at that level so it's not really for me to say.

really fun matches to watch, and also nice to see Idra win. Well played.
TIME TO SAY GOODNIGHT BRO!
