It's good for their image if Korean teams take in a foreigner (white people are loved in Korea) and Idra IS learning Korean. And I'm Korean, hence my word > yours. You would think they would love all the foreign English teachers then...oh wait... | ||

Annoyingly there are a couple of impostors now. :/ I blame being featured in several of Husky's videos. | ||

If he wants a future in SC2 that's the best course of action. | ||

It's not his decision to leave CJ, his contract was running out and he didnt get a new one. Otherwise i guess he would have liked to stay with CJ | ||

Idra doesn't really care about learning Korean nor does he have that much interaction with his CJ teammates beyond a select few. Be informed before you make random statements. He does learn Korean. He also said that he really likes the korean food and language and is always happy when he comes to Korea from a US trip because the food is so healthy. I think the chance that he actually becomes good at korean and becomes pretty famous at some point in his sc2 career is kinda high because he is not really as ignorant as some people think he is. | ||

It'll be like when Goku went to go train with King Kai and came back and knew the Kaioken and owned everybody. But then there will be someone like Vegeta that will own him back. And he will need help from his friends to beat him and then since Goku gets stronger when he loses he will be better. Then he will go to another planet training in 100x gravity so then he comes and is super ownage like Goku was and then there will be someone like Frieza that owns him untill he rages and turns into a super saiyan. Then cell comes and then he gets owned and asks his kid to help him out to kill cell so the person that IdrA trained will kill Cell. Then Buu will come and seem to be unstoppable and will make Vegeta super ownage but Goku will hide SS3 from him and then will fuse with him to kill Buu. Then will use a spirit bomb to own Buu. And then some shit happens where he becomes a kid again but he's in the future. I don't even understad that shit. love it... made me laugh! Wait so IdrA = goku? His temperament seems more like Vegeta... <shrug> It's too late to be over thinking a Dragonball reference... ![]() | ||

So, Liquid members are paid a monthly/whatever-ly salary? Neat. Also, a bit of an annoying way to "Correct me" When I say that; I'm actually looking for info, not a quip. ![]() | ||

SC2 isnt very big in korea yet and all of the big stuff is going on in the West. so i'm thinking he might not see much reason to stay in korea anymore as well since the language barrier he has said is very hard to deal with. i wouldnt be surprised to see him come home since this is where the scene is really taking off. i dont think this game is going to revolve around korea like BW did. and i believe he's said time and time again the Korea server is probably worse than NA is. That's how i'm seeing it all from what i know. it's all guessing but i think its probably the closest thing to the truth than that he just couldnt get a new contract. im betting he didnt want one. | ||

His temperament seems more like Vegeta... <shrug> It's too late to be over thinking a Dragonball reference... ![]() Yeah he's definitely more like Vegeta. Vegeta improves through his rage. Like when Goku showed every his super saiyan transformation in the Trunks saga, Vegeta was all pissed and wanted it super bad. He felt like he deserved it more since he is the prince of all saiyans. So then instead of going through emotional distress to become super saiyan, Vegeta knocked out a monstrous training session to achieve his goal. If you don't remember, he trained at like 300x earths gravity then he landed on some planet. A giant asteroid was going to wreck his ship but then he got owned and raged hard. All of a sudden, he turned super saiyan. So I guess right now Idra is like super saiyan vegeta but now he is trying to achieve ultimate level. New training house is therefore the hyperbolic time chamber. Then to go even further, he is going to let himself get possessed (by kespa maybe?) and become super saiyan majin Idra. Remember Idra, there is good in your heart! Don't turn yourself over to kespa | ||
