EPTIn any case, his release will probably do him some favours. It will give him an opportunity to reassess his position. He's a smart guy with money in the bank; I don't think he's going to have any financial problems at least.

Even IdrA mentioned he was slightly embarrassed that his stream got 2-3 times more. But I am mixed on this whole thing. IdrA was a character, and you need a bad guy, but he just seemed a little too unstable. Hopefully this snaps some sense into him and he grows up a bit. You haven't seen Jaedong stream much, he's been up above 5k everytime I've seen him stream minus the first few or the ones that are really late (around midnight korean) | ||

I did not expect this to happen. I don't like IdrA but i still think firing him was over the top. It was long overdue ... since they failed to give him a clear enough message that he should not post such terrible things and behave more politely. Ultimately his parents are to blame, because they failed to tame him. Tolerating terrible manners because someone is "successful" or "popular" is a bad thing in our western societies and more consumers should grow a spine and develop some principles. | ||

I think him being fired is more the result of his attitude and his inability to change it despite prior warnings than th really a result of this comment alone. I'm not happy to see him fired, because he seems to be a nice guy irl, but he had it coming unfortunately. I hope it will be a wake up call and that he'll be able to continue his carreer. A personal sponsorship is probably the best solution. | ||

Whether Idra plays into the bad guy persona or not, his attitude towards the game and community really can't be doing his mindset any favours. | ||

Another victim of the inflated politically correctness wave that nowadays plague the planet. GL Greg, hope you find a new team soon and keep giving a fuck about everything  This guy has wished cancer on people and has said cruel things about David Kim on live streams without any repercussion. Please take this idea that he is a victim of inflated politically correctness elsewhere because it's dumb and just not true. IdrA was released because he no longer gave a fuck. If you are really a fan of IdrA you should want him to do something he likes and enjoys, not because he's making money of haters tuning in to see him rage. | ||

Idra will prolly smile and think: "Only bad news are good news." So much attention for a player who did not show any decent results for a long time. His self marketing is just incredible... | ||
