hmm, i support the expansion of e-sports in the west and i support greg's decision. Not going to mention anything about his performance in SK GSL, which was admiral at best.

Really, a better way to sum up his success is that he is the 3rd best Zerg in the world, which I would say is way beyond admiral?

When I saw GOM's "Goodbye Idra" video I was worried he died in a plane crash on the way home.

he's participating in an ESL Event (named IEM World Finals or something like that) next week, so i guess that would have made GSL pretty much impossible

Well organizing and performing a move from SK to the US is I guess a rather stressfull experience and it would seem logicall to not have that stress while he is participating in the biggest western SC2 league

Just to give my 2 cents about Idra.
I'm not by nature a great fan of him BUT the guy did something very brave by moving to Korea for a long time.
During the SC1 era, he trained hard , in a difficult environment for quite not much reward. But he stayed there and kept practising. Most of us would have come back home way earlir than him and for that, he has my full respect.

Good luck Idra.

I'd say JulyZerg, Zenio, FruitDealer, and Ret are all Idra-level players.

The dreaded rear admirable!

Good for IdrA for trying his best! Hopefully one day he'll go back as a better player and win one for the foreign masses!

idra realized he could make more money on the NASL where he doesn't have to face people like MVP. + all the MLG's. Good choice by him.

Can someone post the link to the GOM "Goodbye IdrA" video. I'm trying to look for it, but I can't find it on the side. Where on the GOM site is it located? I can't find it under "Videos" or "Gomcam"...

Game 2 of the series he was meant to play in - it's shown at the very start.

EDIT: It's actually the first game, it's just listed under Game 2 because of course Game 1 did not happen.

Also, he finally has teammates to have proper practice with. Some might argue that ladder is great practice but if you actually watch his stream he doesn't exact get a consistent amount of quality games.

There was a sort of interesting quote in of the GSL Code S Winners interviews. I've spoilered it below:

+ Show Spoiler +

Q : Idra left Korea. What is your honest opinion?

Clide : I hope he did not leave the country because of me. I was very rude to him. I hope he did not get a bad impression of Korea because of me. If he comes back to GSL and I have a seed to give, I would defintely choose him.


Not that I think it has anything to do with Idra actually leaving. Found it very weird though, did I miss some incident or ceremony?
