Odd pickup as he have only had one gig since he left EG, he's not the most popular streamer either but hey good of TTeSPORTS wonder what Artosis and that club have in store

Good to see people getting jobs.

Problem is, we have enough casters. Enough that many of them don't get hired for LANS on a regular basis. I would like to see him playing qualifiers for DH, IEM or WCS.

Indeed we do. We have far from enough good casters though. The more people with actual deep technical understanding of the game we get over youtube play by play guys whose main objective seems to be seeing how many words they can manage to disgorge at extremely shrill octaves in 30 seconds, the better.

If Idra replaces a caster who is not nearly as good as him, it will make the event better, and so everyone wins.

Well except the guy being replaced I guess.

Congrats to Idra. I couldn't help but laugh at this part though:
"as his aggressive nature adds a bit of needed attitude to our lineup" lol

He joins a team?
I thought he was retired and stopped playing competetively/moved to being a caster?
Serious question.

Or does that mean he is going progamer again?

And what is a "esports personality" and why do you need a clan for this?
So confused. :D

It's a sponsorship. esports Personality means he is marketable and has a big following.

This was a big supprise for sure! ;D Nice to see Idra move on tho even if i've never been a fan of him, at least not of his manners. But he was actually good, way better at casting than i could ever imagine. GL Idra!

Well, I hope he will "feel like home" there along side TTeSports. Good luck!

For a second there I thought that IdrA was fading when I watched his streams and saw he had less than the usual amount of viewers. I was concerned in fact. I'm very glad that TTeSports made this pickup.

To me it seems like Idra's fame is fading fast. Congrats on the TTeSports sponsorship, but I bet he was hoping for better partners. Unfortunately for him, MLG, WCS etc. already have a complete set of casters.
