Has anyone seen Idra stream, compete, make a comment on a Starcraft related topic in 2013? I haven't. I have never been impressed with his gameplay. The only reason I think he has fans is because he goes "Hulk" mode when he loses (which is more often than not even when he isn't playing against Koreans). I don't know what he said to get fired from EG but in my opinion this was just an excuse for them to cut some dead weight.


you havent seen idra stream in 2013?
so - have u been on teamliquid in 2013?

I can't imagine IdrA without EG and vice versa. The EG tag removed from my profile, in sadness.

Can someone explain what triggered this decision?

I'm unsure, but perhaps his rather unsportsmanlike behavior in regards to the viewers? (Speaking of leaving with 200/200 supply without even giving the game a chance, not the no gg).

seems like a copout. idra hasn't changed since i started watching him around the 2008 time frame.


When normally Idra made idiotic statements. This is the first time he dragged EG into them by saying that he doesn't get paid for results but to actively be an asshole to "the community". That puts EG in a negative spotlight. If he didn't say that I don't see anything happening and just business as usual. He dragged EG's business practice into it and they probably had a conversation and he said fuck it.

EG punished him for telling the truth? lol. the community feeds off this shit.

i imagine they just got tired of his bullshit and he wasnt producing enough results to make him worthwhile anymore. however, his saying that he gets paid to be an asshole seems par for the course for him, and punishment for that is laughable.

I'm blown away by this... I dislike the attitude of IdrA however I've always had a soft spot for him, like his play, like his stream. Can't imagine EG without IdrA or IdrA without EG. Feel like its lika a married couple that's been together forever and then get divorced, can't see one without the other... It'll be weird.

Good luck to IdrA.

Wow, I couldn't believe that this April fools thread would be open for 20 pages until I tuned into SotG.

That was really unexpected for me, huge, huge respect to EG for the decision!

idrA was such a shit player. Worst attitude in e-sports world wide. Understandable that they booted his ass off the team. iNcontroL is doing his best to prop up idrA's shinking ship, but it's not all that believable. 1 year from now, idrA best burger flipper NA.


105 posts and then call one of the greatest players a burger flipper even though he probably earns 10 times your salary =).

stay classy.



lmao you really think he doesnt have to work for the rest of his life? and i just cant see him picked up by any team... even Naniwa was looking for a team over a half a year? and comparing nani to idra is like comparing grandmasters to masters. there was a time where idra did play good, but without playing good/ with a shit attitude/not even enjoying to play this game. welp enough said i guess

1. Not surprising, and I expected this for a long time. But it is sad.

2. I really doubt this is just because of the whole WCS debacle. I'm sure IdrA has had plenty of warnings and stuff like that and I guess this was just the breaking point for EG management.

3. I hope he takes a break

An overreaction? To 3 consecutive years of BMing opponents on ladder AND tournaments as well as his own teammates in addition winning literally nothing.... No. This well deserved and due a long time coming.


Three years?

How did you even get a dragoon icon before knowing that IdrA had a life before SC2....



3 years on EG. He was only on EG towards the very end of BW.

He was never on BW EG. He joined EG after WoL was actually released.

I felt this coming, you could tell Greg was on a HUGE downward spiral, both in gameplay and attitude, but I didn't think EG would actually pull the plug.

Interesting..

I think they went out of proportions, idra just said wrong words in the wrong place, but we as the community didnt even made that bid of a deal imho.
