IdrA to be deported from Korea
Greg “IdrA” Fields of Team Evil Geniuses announced last night that he will be leaving Korea and heading back to the United States. He explained that he was moving back to be a part of the Western Starcraft 2 scene which is poised to explode. However, many were suspicious as the timing is right before the new GSL season. This morning, these suspicions were confirmed as information was leaked from the Korean Immigration Bureau that IdrA is actually being deported for his bad manners.
The leaked information contains a 9723 page report documenting all the instances of poor manners by IdrA, both in and out of game. In Korean culture, people are respectful to each other and especially their elders, so many feel IdrA's deportation is well-deserving and has been coming for a long time. Ever since Greg so rudely corrected The Emperor, BoxeR, he has had a target on his back as correcting the great Lim Yo Hwan can be an arrestable offense. It is believed that IdrA's airport send off next month will have more Korean attendance than all the GSL finals combined, which really isn't a whole lot, because SC2 is clearly dying in Korea.
It is unclear what finally tipped the scales to actually deport IdrA, but many feel it is related to his and Artosis' new show, “Imbalanced.” An Immigration Buereau worker, who spoke under anonymity, said that the show factored into the decision. “In Korea, it is rude to talk about imbalance, much less create a show called “Imbalanced,” in which all the discussion is about imbalance. Hell, the show itself is imbalanced. Two Zerg players? And don't tell me Artosis plays Protoss now. I've seen his Protoss, it's awful.”
During the announcement, it was revealed that IdrA had already decided to return to the US when GomTV had the Code S group selections. IdrA purposely selected TSL_Clide, who picked oGsZenio, both rivals of IdrA. Greg also chose a group right next to IMmvp's group which also has oGsMC, meaning Clide and Zenio may have to play a GSL champion should they advance to the round of 16. This revelation shows that IdrA is not only good at bm, but also trolling. In response to IdrA superb trolling, GOSUTrolling.com, a SC2 news website that doesn't break any significant news, has completely inaccurate articles, and does some truly atrocious interviews, announced that because of his efforts, Greg has been awarded the "Athene Award for Artistic Excellence in the field of Trolling".
IdrA during the Code S group selection. Somehow, everyone missed Greg's troll face, which further demonstrates his masterful trolling skills.
Despite his trolling prowess, IdrA is not immune to trolling as he agreed to move in with Bryce “Machine” Bates when he returns to the US, only to be later informed that their other roommate is a 45-year-old porn enthusiast. IdrA could not be reached for comment.
However, not everyone in Korea is happy to see IdrA go. It is rumored that TSL_Clide and oGsZenio will be holding a tearful vigil tonight in memory of their nemesis.

+ Show Spoiler [Note from the Editor] +Bleh. Kind of rushed another article out, hopefully it's decent. Recent revelations and laziness have made me adjust my plans for articles and I wanted to get one out this week. I'll probably have a couple planned out articles this weekend/next week.

Hahaha the picture is great :D
|

Ever since Greg so rudely corrected The Emperor, BoxeR, he has had a target on his back as correcting the great Lim Yo Hwan can be an arrestable offense. lol

I usually find the IA generally forced and not really funny, but this one actually made me smirk. Very well done

IdrA could not be reached for comment. LOLOL. The article may be satire, but both comments are completely true. I love Idra trolling Clide and Zenio, and it'll be funny to see karma strike back after a few awkward months with his new roommate. The news about Idra is ripe material for IA, and it is awesome to see the article hit the nail in the head with it.

Coulda been 4 paragraphs shorter and accomplished the same amount of unfunny.
|

Just a tip: as an author, never apologize or make excuses for your writing. After you publish, just let it be what it is. Besides, this article was quite good.

Please leave it the the writers....

Heaps good hoju! I always look out for your blogs :D
|
lulz the imba show is sooooooooooooooooooo biased.
"Oh! Protoss vs Zerg.....col are totes op. Protoss vs Terran? Oh they are fine" ::troll ling face::
|
|
I doubt any Korean players in Korea actually care that he's leaving. Dude needs to learn to respect his peers.
|
makes no sense at all... so this means that in oriental culture you have to be lying all the time, being not who you are and being respectful to those who you dont feel like being respectful just because its the right thing to do... now i see why they are all like robots
okay, great place... but not for me anyway, good trolling idra, im proud of you. be yourself ^^

I thought correcting boxer was punishable by death
|
|
hahaha, well done. These never disappoint!
|
Does this mean that Jinro will also be banned/deported too? Since he was swearing on TV.
