About time if you ask me, He's been nothing but rude to loving fans on the forums /ingame forever. It's time he gets some actual consequences for his actions.
This is where we begin. Show your true self, Battosai.

It is sad. I don't like Idra (I pretty much only like players who play amazingly, plus I guess Huk, who is merely very good, but dat mothership rush), but this is still sad.

He's obviously not an idiot and he is a talented player, but it's sad that his attitude has done this to him.

To your point: If you are a shop assistant you can either be a friendly person or a spiteful person who pretends to be a friendly person, no difference for the shop owner.

so after 3 years, he hasn't matured at all? or has he continued to rage with no intention of changing because that's his persona in the sc community?

either way, someone's gonna pick him up or he's gonna quit sc2

In a way, what Idra said was true. This community LOVES this sort of bullshit. It was bred for it, thrives on it. It needs it, because without it there can be no storylines worth remembering.


Clearly we should just cut to the chase and film an EG house reality TV show. Just like MTV doesn't have music, it will have no SC2 in it at all. Then we'd all be much happier. *hifive*

Being asshat assistant would not bring any real exposure and make people buy more stuff from that shop while IdrA did generate them profit and exposure from business point of view. Whether it was more than they were spending on him or not only Alex could answer that question I guess. Either way your analogy is bad.

I have weird mixed feelings on the situation. I've known Idra to be such a strong player for so many years now, I know he's mostly considered a heel in the Starcraft II world but has always been able to prove he's a power house. I know lately his stats have fallen but he has such a large following at the same time. I don't think he'll have much trouble finding a new team but it's still probably a kick in the face. I think this must have been a hard decision for EG to let Idra go. It's such a close team I wonder when we will hear how the rest of the house is doing.

Idra is an interesting personality. Even if he feels self entitled at times. This is because he's always been a pro gamer and had success. I'm of a libertarian mindset that having a large ego is actually good, because it means you are trying to be the best that you can and think that way as well.

At any rate it will be interesting to see what team he goes to next.


It's good as long as it gives you the confidence to go out and do stuff and it stops you choking.

It's bad when you just end up going "omg you so bad, I hope you die, would have beaten you anyway", stop trying, and kill yourself. Then refuse to learn from your mistakes because you think you are god.

Sure there's always room for the Michael Vicks, Chris Browns, Piers Morgans, Dennis Rodmans and Paris Hiltons et al.


Dafuq, don't put Dennis Rodman in that category!

Idra is the Chael Sonnen of SC2. He does a lot of trash talk is a BM and is not doing well at playing SC2 righ now...

And that is exactly why i like him i mean he's so good for the scene, to promote and to motivate. And yes i think he was a good "marketing" to EG and i do think that EG will probably lose it's essence in terms of image but technically speaking in terms of competitive play i don't think they will lose this much as idra wasn't in his best form since 2011 or the beginning of 2012 (?) i think...

At first I was just shocked, sad and felt for both sides but now I find myself more and more siding with Idra.

Couldn't he just be publicly suspended or fined instead of taking such a drastic measure? Of course, I'm sure EG has probably tried everything they can to tone him down but it's still sad to see it come to this. RIP the classic EG

I don't understand people saying he's not an idiot.

He is an idiot for running his mouth. Yeah, we wanted a personality but if he's merely giving us what we wanted then he can act a little smarter as well. He's a bad mouthing child or he at least acts like it. He's been bashing the game yet there are dozens of better players who practice and get better at the game he calls broken every single day.
