I was expected this for a few weeks, what happened yesterday (WCS ragequits + mostly TL post) was probably the cherry on the cake. EG had not the choice, every team would have fired him, they were the only one which could have kept him that long.

Good move from EG and I think that means the end of IdrA's career.

Good decision from EG, there's a fine line to draw.

Hmpf...just hmpf....EG is now a faceless Team besides Incontrol (and I don't think he's pleased with this decision). I allways liked that they kept their bad boy, maybe EG used the wrong tools to motivate him >.> ...really disappointed on one side, but all in all its a bit understandable on the other...

Anyway, can't really support this "throw him"-move by EG.

so if a player of a team says all fans are shit and hes happy to be paid to tread you like it and its so nice his team pays him to tell you you are shit, then you think the team should not kick him ? wow ... and if a thief gives everything back its also fine right ?

Haven't been a contender in any way for like 2 years, and has always had an absolutely terrible attitude. If it wasn't for him being popular for some bizarre reason, he would probably have been kicked a long time ago. Good riddance I say.

There's a difference between telling the truth and being disrespectful when telling the truth. EG's not going to be the same

I think it is terrible that the OP doesn't even say what exactly he has actually done now and just assumes that everybody knows. How has he been disrespectful to the community? Maybe a lot of people are informed about this but for sure not everybody, so I think it should really be in this OP.

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

stay classy.

Greatest is a loose term. Remember who won TLS II...

Honestly Incontrol's diatribe is precisely what's wrong with popular culture (and seems spot on). It'll be interesting if he survives because he is nothing like Nani. Nani has consistenly produced results and looked to produce results. Idra Not so much.

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.

Greg was always like that though. They know what they were getting when they signed these guys lol.

IMHO it was an overreaction, idra being so famous, he have a lot of pressure, and obviously he snapped, so the company that got so much from idra kicking him as soon he shows problems its kinda disgusting they should have warned him, give him vacations, try to help him, then if he did it again i am 1000% agree to fire him, but this is too drastic.

Haha Idra screwed himself with the statement that he basically treats his fans like "fukers" and gets paid for it. With his horrible performance in WCS and that admittance of stupidity, that was the straw that broke the camel's back, and EG said his value for the investment is only going to go downhill.

http://www.teamliquid.net/video/streams/itmeJP (StotG with Idra leaving) --> 13k viewvers
http://www.teamliquid.net/video/streams/WCS_America (WCS Prem. AM) --> 15k viewers

That tells a lot about why the AM scene does not prosper despite talent being there imho.
