You don't know what the fuck happened with Ret. It was a misunderstanding that the Koreans had with him. What does this have to do with IdrA again?


and no one wanted to practice with him? last i heard he was on iccup server all day playing instead of practicing with team mates


I'm sorry, but before you go spreading idiotic statements, please do some research (I mean, what happened was all documented in the forums).

Ret went to Korea to train with estro in order to prepare for Courage. While he was at the team house working, there was an incident where Ret was going over a replay while talking to someone on MSN. One of the other B-Teamers saw this and reported that Ret had been leaking replays, something that was going on at the time.

Being a foreigner, it must have been difficult for Ret to explain that he wasn't doing that (and later on I think it was discovered that it was another practice partner that was leaking the replays), but it had already created enough of a misunderstanding that things just didn't work out.

On another note, Idra has clearly been practicing more than 3 hours a day for the majority of these last few months. His three hours a day was ages ago (as already noted).

Please don't be so stupid when calling out players.

edit: Cleaned up some wording.

I think he needs more help with his ZvP and ZvZ, something I'm not sure SlayerS can provide too much of/as much of compared to other teams. Still, it IS Korea, and a full roster of powerhouse players compared to EG's mere three should give him some improvement anyways.


I laughed so hard reading this post... Are you serious ???? no this can't be true, definitly i didn't read that !

Thank you for clearing this up, I knew that IdrA helped Ret out in KR, but I never knew what it was that made things go sour between Ret/eSTRO.

Shouldn't CoCa be there too? I know that he is out of the team house, but he is still allowed to train with them surely?

I guess you have not watched SC2 in the last year or so?


I guess you have not been to Korea? IdrA is going to have to learn his manners, respect comes before anything in Korean culture. That would be the most significant moment of his career.


idra has already been in korea for 3 years for broodwar, clearly he didn't learn any manners there


Yeah. And that's why no1 liked him on CJ.

Looks they really "dislike" him in this happy picture

Who are these people? Why do they think they know more about how it works in Korea than IdrA himself who spent 3 years at the bottom of the foodchain in the CJ B-team? -_____-

Haha yeah I agree with you, its really weird to see people make these empty insult/statements. Pure garbage of a post that could lead to a lot of misunderstandings.

But to be realistic, when it comes to an IdrA thread, this kind of trolling and hate is bound to happen. Same when IdrA wins.. the annoying fanboys come out as well.

Good luck to him in korea, should really improve his play if he fully commits to training (which he said he would)

I don't expect him to win a GSL, but I feel that if he puts in the 8-10 hours daily with SlayerS he can easily be a top 32 player.


I don't think he will even make it into code S...



you are aware he qualified for code S every season 1-3 right lol? do you know how consistent you must play to not get cheesed back then? not to mention zerg was a weak race s1 and 2 which was why the nestea and fruitdealer wins were so crazy.

i think idra plays better against better players because reading good players is part of the game. on ladder when idra sees a kid make 5 spines and then goes roach im sure he gets upset because he read it as muta

Not quite, there was no code S in open season, just an open 64 player bracket which was a lot easier to qualify for then now.
But he was Code S because of those qualifications and how he did in the open seasons.

Hopefully he makes it into code S, foreigners get viewers.

good job judging somebody you know so well... oh wait

You don't need to know him well to tell. He's known through the community as a douchebag. And if you ever see him stream, etc, you can easily see why.

Which is funny, because everyone who's ever met in real life basically says he's a really funny and nice guy. Including TotalBiscuit, who had serious issues with Idra until they actually met.

Idra has anger issues when it comes to competition, and that's basically the only reason people think he's a douche. Everything else is just a snarky sense of humour.

I actually have noticed that IRL he seems a lot more balanced. However, that's a bad indication of a person. People act like their true selves when they can't be hurt by their own actions. This is why the best way to judge a girlfriend is to see how they treat waiting staff.


This is just silly. Idra get's angry losing people like everyone else does, he's jut not afraid to say it. Stop acting like who someone is in a situation in which they just lost a game they felt they should have won after literally thousands of hours of practice, is who they are. People are products of their situation. Idra just doesn't like losing, period, and to top it off, more often than not he will straight up just play up his character for drama.
