Idra will not be picked up by any team. EG is the only team that will tolerate the BM and bullshit that Idra was putting out. That alone would have gotten him kicked off any other team. let alone the fact that he has had absolutely zero results in the past two years. He's irrelevant and will simply disappear.

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.


ROFL. Where to start? "One of the greatest players?" What a joke statement. idrA was an awful player and has been for quite a long time now. 10 times my salary? Another hilarious statement. I make infinitely more than idrA, he doesn't have a salary anymore. I called him a burger flipper because he has no education and no job experience what so ever... with a very poor attitude....... disliked amongst his team by some of the players... etc. He's a joke and it's about time he got booted out the door.

a business' purpose is to make money. winning is at best tangentially related to making money in this industry, solely because of what you and the rest of the community chooses to watch. and any company who tries to lead the charge in the direction you're asking for is gonna go out of business. we arent "abusing a competitive platform" we work in an entertainment industry and you guys are entertained by pandering, not competition.


Idra, in an insight in why he behaves the way he does.

I am sure he is a nice fellow, who is pained and crying inside by his enforced facade for entertainment whenever he streams.

nope you're all a bunch of fucks
it just so happens i get paid to treat you like it. it's fucking awesome.

User was temp banned for this post.


Will TL perm him now that he isn't attached to EG?



You must be fairly new here. Idra has been banned countless of times, even before he was with EG.

Yea he was temp banned like the whole 2011 lol.

the guy specifically said perm banned and not temps.

Sorry to see him go. IdrA was one of the players and personalities who made me passionate about StarCraft and eSports in general. I guess the liability/asset ratio finally got tipped over. I wish all the best for Greg, though I'm sorry to say I think his career in progaming is over. Here's to hoping he lands on his feet.

I figured this was going to happen once he started trashtalking his own teammates... hopefully he learns from this and becomes a better player / person.

In all honesty I think IdrA could end up becoming a really powerful player again. He proved before that he is capable of immersing himself into the game and producing great results. Maybe his playing environment and habits the past 1-2yr have been very suboptimal for his training. Maybe if he goes to a new team he can reset his work ethic and turn it around. What if he went to a Korean team, impossible as it sounds? Maybe a transformed Idra in a competitive, workhorse training environment could be a great player again


Neh, he's done. He lived on his mechanics in both BW and the beginning of SC2. His game sense is abysmal which is why he only plays standard builds.

And remember this, Idra was living the good life. An EG salary is quite generous and it was probably especially generous in 2011 when Idra was getting some results. This compared to the vast majority of players including Koreans (basically every single ESF player) that do not get a paycheck, grind on a strict schedule every day, and live or die based on tournament winnings. Idra had every opportunity afforded to him and blew every single one.

In the end, even EG had to let him go, not because of any moral compunction (or they would've fired him over a year ago) but more likely than not, a bunch of sponsors threatened to leave. Nothing else could explain the sudden rush to get rid of Idra. His career is dead except for the pittance he will get from streaming to 3000 malcontents on twitch because that's basically his only option now (give it some time).


He'll still be living the good life if he chooses to continue streaming. There are enough people who can't get enough of Idra acting like being an asshole to keep him rolling in ad money i'm sure.
