I thought he hated SC2... Why is he still doing this?

Regardless, best of luck to them both.



Beats having a 9-5 real job or going to school.

He has stated hundreds of times throughout SC2 he is only in it for the money, and thought the game was trash since its debut in comparison to BW.

Now he is going to live the dream...

get paid to sit at home and play video games. And now he doesnt even have to be competitive like he used to. Results and showings dont exist so he doesnt have to stress about how good he actually is.

Nothing has changed for him, except now he gets paid to sit at home and play video games without having to stress at a competition about winning.

Edit: It is pretty funny that he is now one of those "personalities" he used to talk so much shit on.


This, especially the last line. It's hilarious, and is a shining example of everything that's wrong with "ESPORTS". Am I the only one who misses the days when people strove to be the best player they could be, instead of being lazy and falling back on a "personality" job?



koreans do it every day, that's why they're the best

What deals have eMG actually secured for their clients?

I found some here:
http://esportsmg.com/blog/
Apparently an IBUYPOWER PC now powers all of Tasteless' streaming.


So in two years they have done a deal with TT eSports and a deal with IBUYPOWER.. amazing stuff here from eMG.



Those are lucrative sponsorships.. I don't think you understand how hard things like these are to come by.

They really need to work their asses off to clean Idra's image.
I'm sure sponsors now aren't very found of sponsoring someone that 'explosive' but I'm sure in the hands of the capable eMG they might do a miracle!

Unsuccessful progamer gets hired as an "esport personality" because his sociopathic behavior is appealing to a large part of the esport community.
I'm not sure which part of this makes me sadder.

You're an idiot. You should probably look up what a real sociopath is before you say something so utterly retarded.

Grats idra on this although I will miss you playing in tournaments.
When I think of something else, something will go here

According to the eMG website, they have signed white-ra and Nestea before Idra and has a parthership with tastosis. From the announcement statement it looks like whitera, nestea and Idra has the same type of task. Dunno what this means to!

You don't have to be a murderer to qualify as a sociopath.
A sociopath is someone who has antisocial personality disorder.
In other words:
- Inflated sense of superiority (this video sums it up best : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktzDR__LTDQ)
- Marked readiness to blame others (blizzard, the game...)
- Incapacity to experience guilt (never heard him morally apologizing for anything, even in the last case)
- Verbal or physical violence (that goes without saying).
...
You can pretty much tick all the boxes.
