Wow. I wonder if IdrA is going to quit and start pursing a Physics degree? For where IdrA is now, I think attending college while still streaming to sustain a portion of his income would be his best bet.

Does this have anything to do with IdrA insulting the community here? http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=411483
Wonder what he does next. Maybe he'll follow Major to a kespa team? Or get picked up by complexity or Clarity

Well I won't be watching any foreign events that Idra isn't a part of, I used to because I cared about EG but getting rid of a big personality and a great player makes them completely devoid of interest to me.
I will watch InControl casting but the foreign scene is completely pointless to me without Idra.

Turns out negative publicity actually matters...shocker.
A man does what he must — in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers, and pressures — and that is the basis of all human morality.

I mean he was one of the more visible foreigners for people new to SC in general in 2010, it makes sense.

Definitely, the MLG he won in 2010 was what kept me playing zerg.

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.

ok well considering his stream views "infinitely" more money than him is gonna be hard dude

and lets not forget the fact he was offered a scholarship to RPI i believe it was, a very respectable engineering school which means he's obviously not dumb and that there's still tons of people who like him and that your opinion on his "joke" level is more or less irrelevant -_-

Wow IdrA being thrown out is huge :o
I'm sure he will retire now. There is no way he can make money without EG.
He can start college/university in Fall.

Was it just for his comments on the scene in the 'The Giant' thread? Or was it his overall attitude just being too much for too long?

Either way, it makes me incredibly sad. I still love Inc and Demu, but I can't support EG like I once did with this.

Totally expected.

If you rage quit in every single situations then you are reducing the exposure EG is getting. Sponsors can't be happy about this. This is all Idra's fault, he could have prevented this, he is in control of his own destiny.

Did Idra say he is going on a break from SC2? Has he made any comments on his situation?

For those who say he may get picked up by a KESPA team, you have to know that he is notorious for being BM back in BW. That definitely would not work, even if he could handle the training routine.

wow, no warning first? I don't know. Seems like EG was just wanting for an excuse to fire him. Again it seems that way, not saying thats what happened.

I'm not Idra's biggest fan, but when I think of EG, Idra is one of the things that pop into my head first. So I'm not sure how I feel about this.

3 years to late if you remove him because of his behaviour. So whats the real deal? More money with less tournement participation?

Look at the post count in here already. Somewhat validated his view that the community feeds off drama and negativity doesn't it? Clarity gaming look to be doing good things under the radar, pick up a player who BMed in the past and the thread explodes.

Sad really that thats the case. Gl to Idra, hope he can rein his temper in personally would love to see him cast again, great analysis. If not, something that fulfils and motivates him, as SC doesn't appear to do anymore.

Thanks for the memories Greg, I didn't agree with all of what you did, but you energised the scene.
