Idra > Ra (I don't think I ever saw Ra beating Idra, his PvT isn't his best and Idra's just better. Though, you know, it might lag a bit!)
HAHAHAH lol
I kind of agree with mostly everything you said, on another note

WTF are you talking about? You're a sexy beast!

Almost seems fake ^^;; it is by eurotrash i didnt mean all europeans are trash, i was referring to the gg.net-esque europeans. You really should have specified, IdrA. Fully agree btw It is however very relative, because your views of people who deserve that 'title' are of course very subjective. You would gain much more if you would be a tad more mannered(actually, disregard 'good manners', simply being more professional would do), but hey, nobody's giving you advice, do what you want. good luck to everyone, this tournament is turning up to be fucking insane specified? i said "eurotrash" that shouldnt offend anyone unless they believe they are trashy europeans. if i had said "the europeans, since they are trash" then youd have a point.

You all took IdrAs interview way too seriously. He was obviously joking around. Lighten up.

Ok I had to say this for the interview with Draco (very frustrating) ok maybe he's retired, but thinking that he has no "fans" wow, he's one of the protoss who has made l a big impact for the protoss race. Great player I love is style, the guy just has the skill I wish him all but luck and sucess for the TSL

No one gave them flak for that.
Nothing wrong with being modest but plenty of people tell themselves that they expect win the whole thing if for nothing else than confidence. If I remember correctly Oov himself said to enter each match expecting to rape.
"When you play, you have to start off with a mind to turn the game into a rape. If you do that, you’ll at least get a win. If you decide to go to Seoul, at least you’ll get as far as Kyeon-gi province (the province Seoul is located in)." - Oov

not to mention i predicted myself in the semi finals, not the finals (but i intend to make the finals too)

For example, if someone says "I hate [country]-an idiots", isn't it more likely that he implies "I hate [country]-ans because they are idiots" and not "I hate those [country]-ans who are idiots"? I think so, because it's unlikely that he likes idiots from some other country better.
The same with your usage of "eurotrash", that's why people are right that you should be more careful with your wording.

another example would be saying "i hate homosexuals" and then acting all surprised when people call you out on it. i mean, if you're not actually gay why would you be offended? so silly, really.

After reading the interviews, I'm a ToT)Cloud( fan. I'm not an IdrA fan any more. Cookie Monster fighting!

I just rewatched Dreiven's TL attack... between that and his interview here he's definitely one of my new favorites.

No one gave them flak for that. There's a world of difference between answering, "I hope I make it far" or "I think I can make it to the finals" when the question being asked was "How far do you think you will make it?", and answering "I think I will be in the finals" when being asked for predictions about who will go far in the tournament. The second question really means, "Which other players do you think will make it far"? Plus, mistrzzz isn't exactly the most respected foreigner on the scene anyways, especially after the whole map hacking fiasco.

It would be easier to take Idra's interviews as jokes if there wasn't so much history and evidence of his saying similar things in all seriousness after losing games.

comments like this especially just make me think Idra is mad that Mondragon posted those super rude comments Idra made after losing to paranoid
I can't even support him as a foreigner representative to Korea because he is so rude all the time, you saw Ali insulting his opponents but he wasn't calling them trash and saying they cheat and calling them faggots

The point is, when you're number 1, humility is the best way to toot your horn. In articles in scientific journals, the earlier an author's name is listed, the more important he is, EXCEPT that the really important people put their names last. It's saying, "I'm so renowned that I don't need to list myself as first author: everyone knows who I am anyway."
In any case, I'd rather read interviews like IdrA's than the old boring: "Everyone's good." "Don't know who will win." "Tough to predict." "If they made it to this round, they must deserve it."

This is very much true.
