Rofl at 3 red texts on this page. What is it about Idra that gets everyone so riled up? He's good at the game, so he's allowed to be a little cocky. Don't like it? First get as good as he is, then you get to be cocky too.

Good manners are so important in the SC community that anyone who doesn't play by the highly cordial rulebook catches a lot of flak. Idra is just a normal guy who gets frustrated now and then and lets that get away from him. He's also very blunt and honest about his opinions, so even when he's just speaking his mind he can rub people the wrong way. There are people like this in every single sport around the world from American Football to Mixed Martial Arts, but only in eSports is it considered abnormal to not be the most courteous one can be.

On Topic: If Idra is smart he'll play the field a bit, so long as he's on top he can get a feel for what teams want him and let them woo him a bit. He should be a hot commodity, not only because he's one of the top players but he's also a foreigner which gives him a unique niche to fill. He just needs to be careful that he doesn't fall behind before he gets on a team again, because having a team to keep him focused and help him train is going to keep his skills sharper than hanging out in his friend's apartment.



NO, GOD NO. Idra is NOT a "normal guy who gets frustrated". "Normal" people don't call their opponent a "fag" just because he did a strategy that Idra couldn't deal with. Not only is that not "normal" for someone who supposedly claims professional status, it's not "normal" for any decent human being, period. It's normal for a douche though....

Nope, I'd say that reaction is pretty normal.
ESV replay guy. I guess. Maybe.

I was looking through the GSL stuff and saw and interview with IdrA that had some interesting info that is not quite getting as much attention as I would expect. The important quotes are highlighted like this.

+ Show Spoiler [Idra] +
IdrA: "I'm honored to have a spot in the GSL"

[image loading]


- How do you feel about making it through with all wins?
▲ I'm happy I made it to the tournament with defeating everyone.

- You've been doing well in StarCraft II tournaments
▲ I got 2nd in IEM in Germany, and before that I won the King of Kings End of Beta Tournament.

- You're still CJ player as far as I know, did you have any problems entering the league?
▲ I was in CJ, but I left already. My contract ends the 31st of this month, and since it's almost over, I joined GSL.


- Have you decided a new team to join?
▲ I want to join a team not associated with KeSPA. I don't have a specific team yet.


- You were Terran in SC1, why did you switch to Zerg?
▲ I thought about changing race in SC1 since Terran didn't fit me, and I felt that Zerg fit my style better than Protoss. That's why I chose Zerg.

- What do you think is attractive about the Zerg race?
▲ I like playing games having good economy and large armies, and I think Zerg fits that description the best.

- What do you think about the balance?
▲ It's difficult to defend early rushes as Zerg, but I think the balance is getting better after every patch.

- Where are you living in Korea?
▲ I'm still in CJ house, but I'm leaving soon. I think I'll stay with a friend until I find a team.


- Your goals and determination for this GSL
▲ I hope the Korean fans enjoy my games. I'm honored to have a spot in the GSL, and I think it's going to be fun, so look forward to it.

+ Show Spoiler [Original Article] +
- 전승으로 예선을 통과한 소감은
▲ 모두 이기고 본선에 오르게 돼서 기쁘다.

- 일찍이 스타크래프트2 대회에 참가해 좋은 성적을 거두고 있는데
▲ 얼마 전 독일에서 열린 IEM에서는 2등을 차지했고, 그 전에는 팀리퀴드 대회나 베타 테스트 당시 해외 마지막 대회였던 킹 오브 킹에서도 우승을 했었다.

- 아직 CJ 선수인걸로 아는데, 대회 참가에는 문제가 없었나
▲ 나는 CJ 선수였지만, 이미 팀에 남아 있지 않다. 계약 기간은 이번 달 31일까지 남아 있는데, 막바지라 참여하게 됐다.

- 새롭게 합류할 팀은 정했는지
▲ KeSPA와 관련되지 않은 팀들로 생각 중이다. 아직 정확히 가겠다고 계획된 팀은 없다.

- 스타1 당시 테란이었는데, 저그로 종족을 바꾼 이유가 있나
▲ 스타1 당시에도 테란이 잘 안 맞는 것 같아서 종족을 바꿀 생각이었는데, 프로토스로도 해봤지만 저그가 더 체질에 맞는 것 같았다. 그래서 저그를 선택했다.

- 저그라는 종족의 매력이 뭐라고 생각하는지
▲ 저그만의 확장력과 풍부한 자원을 이용한 물량 게임을 좋아하고, 그런 것에 있어서 저그가 가장 알맞은 것 같았다.

- 종족 간 밸런스에 대해서는 어떻게 생각하나
▲ 아무래도 저그는 초반 러시를 수비하기 어려운 종족이라 헤매는 경향이 있었는데, 패치를 통해서 한 걸음씩 더 완벽한 밸런스에 다가서고 있는 것 같다고 생각된다.

- 요즘 국내에서의 생활은 어디서 하고 있나
▲ 아직은 CJ 숙소에 있지만 곧 나올 것이다. 다른 팀에 들어가기 전까지는 친구와 지낼 것 같다.

- 이번 GSL에 임하는 목표와 각오는
▲ 한국 팬들이 내 경기를 즐겨주면 좋겠다. GSL에서 한 자리를 차지하게 돼서 영광이고, 굉장히 재미있을 것 같으니까 팬 분들도 기대 많이 해주시면 좋겠다.

Thanks l10f!


So will he be leaving Korea, or just signing with a new team like oGs that is not directly owned by KESPA?

This is pretty big news to me, what does everyone think of this move? I personally would love to see him come back stateside but I have a feeling he was meant for Korea :D!

I thought he was kicked out of CJ Entus?

Anyway, he can't come back to the states. He has raged against too many players, and it would be dangerous to his health.

There have been rumors that you are going EG. Any truth to this story?
