Couple of good moments from him but played absolutely awful G3 against KraSS.

While he may not find a team, I'm guessing there are a lot of personal sponsership opportunities for Idra as he still has a ton of drawing power.

Cliffs:

Greg says he's finished being a professional player. Understands EG's decision. Says he hasn't been worth his beefy contract as of late. Looking forward to beginning the next phase of his career - analytical casting, media, etc.

Skimmed that reddit thread, a destiny/idra commentary team would be the greatest thing ever given they both hate Terran, Protoss and ZvZ

Great decision by idra. He should have gone into casting a year ago, but I understand having to give playing one more shot. He's one of the best analysts out there.

his personality is pretty meh. without playing matches to illicit controversy, he's an incredibly boring dude.

probably a coin flip if i'd rather have a monotone idra or over the top day 9 casting.

Idra may be monotone, but when he's casting an actual tournament and not just ****-talking on this stream, he's probably the best analyst you can get.

Voice inflection can be learned. A knack for analysis can't really.

SC2 internet fight!!!!!!!




Yeah, Idra can talk about SC2 in the way great hsnl players can speak about NL thought processes. You def have to have a good base of understanding about the game to understand him, but he gives great insight.

i mean, i admit i'm not an expert, but i feel artosis seems to have a very good understanding of the game. i'd take his casting over idra any day. i know no one is arguing idra > artosis, but i'm just giving an example.

then again, tastetosis have been taking a turn for the day9 in recent hyped events. it seems like maybe their producers are pushing them to act more excited about everything, and it seems a bit forced.

If Idra gives "average to ****ty" insight, then every other analytical caster's insight is bronze level.
