Are you kidding me? They tried everything for 2 years.


Idra continue to push the limits of his BM. If he is helpless, then why did Incontrol believe he can go get another team if he promises them he will try to change and post good results.

Either way EG did the right move to wake him up

Just because suppy did good in one group doesn't make up for his overall results which are basically none. Demuslim is NA's favourite, that's about it. Lackluster skill, as soon as he meets a Korean on ladder you can see how silly of a player his is.

Lost respect for me because I didn't "fix" idra? And how did I support IdrA's behavior?

I never personally got the impression idra never liked SC 2 I mean he spends most of his days playing it nonstop which I think speaks a lot louder then the stuff he says. You cant take what he says seriously he is just joking around but I am sure some anal people probably take it literally and go tell their mom or whatever.
Idra says SC 2 is not as good as BW and that is arguable but you cant tell him he is wrong.

I'm sure he liked it in the beginning but he hasn't liked it in a long time, he's even said this in an interview or w/e

Nonono he's just joking! He really loves the game and cares a lot and really thinks Zerg is OP!

Yes i think people are being oppressed when everyone is getting out their pitchforks if they say or do something "bad" like stephano , destiny or idra. Or dont you think it is non oppressive if someone says something others might get offended by (what destiny or stephano did wasnt even meant for the public" yet some people grab their pitchforks and want them to be fired/punished. IS that non "oppressive" to you?


I'm just going to quote a PM I sent to someone during this exact same discussion with destiny last year that encapsulates my opinions on where the responsibilities of players and sponsors/teams lie.

Show nested quote +
well, no. I don't think that morals create opportunities, I think morals or the appearance of morals can sustain opportunities in communities where public conception of morality is fairly vanilla and unaccepting of deviance. nobody gave destiny a chance because they thought he was a saint, and nobody expects him to be one, they just expect him to not say and do unsupportable things; the continuation of that initial opportunity is dependent on him not fucking it up for himself by being a racist or a mildly sexist nude picture distributor.

going from there, I do think that e-sports should generally be a reflection of the greater progressive society, and I'm not convinced that destiny can thrive in an environment like that. whether his sponsors really cared is kind of irrelevant, because they're forced to kowtow to the same standards of morality that they're simultaneously upholding, willingly or not.


my essential problem with your consistent view on these reoccurring issues is that you utterly shift responsibility from idra's behavior to the society that punishes him. real issue discrimination/unfair discrimination stems from deeply flawed views (women/black people/gay people are stupid and immoral by default!) and does not allow real debate or responses that can help the victim, i.e. a gay man gets fired from his job for nothing but being gay. he cannot change his sexuality.

idra can stop being a silly little bitch and take some of that EG money to go see a psychiatrist, and he apparently hasn't tried or succeeded in the years he's had to effect change. his long-term health for the scene and his career apparently isn't as important as ignoring those issues or conflating them into himself, into some sort of anti-PC bogeyman/rage specter to appeal to teenagers and emotionally stunted drama queens.


No i accept that we are all of human nature and we all have our flaws. Some have less flaws some have more, nobody is perfect. Nobody is the ideal human being and most of the stuff you see in public of famous athlets is only because the public wants them to be that way, not the person itself wants to behave that way. That is oppression for me. Someone using force on another person to behave in a different way because otherwise he/she has to face consequences, and losing a job is a big consequence and not just a slap on the wrist. But people outside have an easy time to see heads roll because they are not in that situation. I dislike a lot of players in the sc2 community for whatever reason, but the last thing i d do is msg their sponsors and get them kicked out of a team. Unlike you i dont want everybody to be a faceless PCcreature that wirtes "gg" everytime and follows the society becaue they have to instead of being themselves.

I m a really tolerant person, and not just tolerant to those where we are obligated to be tolerant (because now society wants us to, as you know that wasnt always the case). I m tolerant to human nature, and that is why i prefer "realness" over a fake person that never shows his/her real face.

The worst thing was when InControl said on SotG that he(Idra) is pretty intelligent.If he is that Intelligent he would have knew the consequences before he said something like that.

Are you kidding me? Incontrol said repeatedly that EG was working very hard with him to fix his mind set. They hired a sports psychologist for him. THAT IS NOT CHEAP. Incontrol personally is one of idra's best friends. Get your head out of your ass.

Well i can completely understand why EG released him, and i can understand incontrol's reaction on SotG. He crossed the line and i feel as though EG is completely within their right.

I was always a big fan of his play since i started playing zerg when sc2 came out, but he always had a bad attitude that needed to be fixed. EG simply wont be the same without him but i do hope Idra finds where he belongs. Either way i will still root for EG as i just love them all

Welp. Can't say this is surprising news regarding Idra.

Worst thing in this situation is EG not letting Incontrol know and letting him get blindsided live.

The EG folks have been working with Idra for years on these types of issues, trying to reduce their frequency.


if this is actually true, I really hope we've seen the last of him. I assumed he got free rein and this was the result, but...this is idra after attempted reform? that is the definition of toxic player and toxic attitude, and regardless of past accomplishments, you can't be a shitlord to the community and your team without actually producing anything.

From what they said on SOTG, Incontrol was (nearly, if not actually) the second to learn of it, after Idra. I'd say it's respectful toward Idra for him to hear it first.

Lost respect for me because I didn't "fix" idra? And how did I support IdrA's behavior?
