42 pages of posts in less than an hour, 10k viewers rushed into SotG in a few minutes, and multiple shows will stack viewers wanting updates.

If a sponsor/team isn't on top of this they should be firing their head hunters.

The community never had that power.

The player telling the community they are a bunch of fucks that pay his bills because he is an asshole to people had it.

If idra really had personal problems with other players in the team this was probabl necassary. But by releasing him EG lost the player who actually
represented the name of the team. Idra is an evil genius and even if the evil part was way more dominant then the genius one he was still one of eg's most popular players. And he cant be blaimed for not getting results anymore, because the training coditions at EG seem to be so bad that it is impossible to be at EG for more then an year and still winn tournaments. Puma, Huk, Thorzain and Stephano have proven that.

He has no etiquette when it comes to games: He doesnt GG, He constantly bad manners players for using legit strategies that are cheesy, he calls out players for playing terran and protoss.

Honestly, he needs a reality check. I know he can be a good person but 90 percent of the time he acts like a complete child and dick. I dont know where his career will go from here but im sure that another team will pick him up because he IS a good player. Anyways, GL to you IdrA.

what did he have to say after loosing 2:0 against revival who is a zerg?

Wow, didn't expect that. Idra is well connected and well established. He will do well in whatever he chooses to do next. Hopefully he takes some time to consider what his next move should be.


you mean "hopefully he takes some times to consider that he has spent the last few years acting like a dick" ?
and then upon realizing that he is not 12 anymore, maybe grow up, show some respect and behave like a professional player...

i can finally root for EG -,-


Wait what? He isn't 12?



j/k of course

I remember when MC flew in for an MLG and the first game of the day was Idra vs MC on Metalopolis and the crowd exploded with every move with every engagement. The stream died I think from too many viewers--they didn't realize just how much bandwidth they needed yet.

Idra will always be that guy to many people.

I get more and more respect for EG each day.

Really good call by EG, Idra has actually been a really negative guy all this time. I hope he retires or change his ways. When he is playing his best he can compete with top tiers foreign players.

This is way too harsh. Greg was probably emotional when he made the statements that got him fired.

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.


I can imagine his Ted talk now

Best thing posted in this thread so far. But seriously, threads like this should have a 10 site post minimum requirement or something, so many new accs just to flame him and whatnot.

EG's standing just went up two notches in my book. And I want to state unequivocally that I'm not a Idra hater or anti-zerg or anything. For me he was negative so I just ignored him. For others that was entertaining and that is their prerogative.

For quite some time I viewed EG to SC2 as I look at MTV to music. -- Perhaps this will mark a turning point far as refocusing on quality of play (and players).
