Would you ever consider switching races if one of the new expansions added a certain unit? Is their any zerg unit that you think is an abomination like artosis' feelings towards marauders? Oh and much love as always <3 | ||

Was going to say overrated but it dont think you can asnwer that hehe Korea time is not yet determined.. just that idra/demuslim will go and I will possibly be going as well for a small period of time. Most underrated is Axslav. He has huge potential and does really well in daily tourneys (winning today over a pretty good pool). | ||

Told this story countless times >_< parents are now very accepting and excited. They ask about it frequently. Anna's parents are fascinated and impressed.. dunno if they necessarily think the highest of it but they certainly don't disrespect it. Just bemused really. | ||

Then I 6 Gated him the next game and now the process is reverting where we're both playing standard and not nearly as greedy anymore, so I feel like the whole metagaming isn't really helping us improve. What should practice partners do to get the most out of sparring? include other people and mix it with ladder play. If you play a game to win and you play it with only 1 person you can't help but to stagnate. You NEED to change it up. | ||

Oh and much love as always <3 Nah would never switch unless it literally became impossible to win with protoss and that will never happen. Any unit I find an abomination? Nope.. think the game is pretty damn awesome. Tweaks will always be "needed" but all in all I am happy! | ||

i know you've barely had time to settle down and get in routines and stuff but how good is it having the likes of idra demuslim and even puma who you can turn to when you need help in PvZ/PvT? But do you ever feel like it distracts you from playing? having people to chat with and just hang out with in general and stuff | ||

 Secondly, I seem to have a large problem with PR with what I do (or I guess try to do) but right now i'll leave youtube out and just give you an example of this thread I made for getting better in Starcraft 2. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=269592 I've put a lot of work into this thread and so far, i've literally gotten two people who have really asked me questions and are planning on taking part in my services. Its hard trying to become known in Sc2 :/ Any help would be greatly appreciated. | ||

Demuslim is (in my opinion) the best non korean terran player out there, and I hold IdrA in a similair regard. To hear that these two players dont take advantage of eachothers mutual skills really disheartens me! I think they could both benefit alot from eachother, but i'm sure you already know that. Perhaps it is just a pipe dream, but perhaps as captain you could get them to train together. ( As a fun first suggestion - I think they should begin with a day of cheese, where demuslim throws every variation of the bunker rush at Idra while he opens 15 hatch every game until he holds them ^^. ) Sorry for commenting so much about your teammates, I think you get that too much to be honest. While it is true that you arn't getting the best tournament results ( hell, I don't think any protoss is right now) more than that, you have been a great community figure. I tune into every show where they offer you a mic, and I have never been dissapointed with the result. You are a great player, as well as a great showman, the latter of which you are easily the SC2 bonjwa of. I wish you great success at the upcomming MLG, and i want to offer a sincere gesture of gratitude. You are so open and accessible that it really makes me, as purely a fan, want to get more involved with starcraft. I'm not actually a player, and have only played SC:BW on the N64. But thanks to Klazart a long time ago I got interested in SC as a spectator. Since then I've gotten to know a grand cast of characters that i've fallen in love with, ( proud to say most of them are from team EG as well ) and you have risen to the forefront of that crowd. While it is nice to see an EG or foriegner do well at a tournament, what matters alot more to me is what happens inbetween. In my case whether that was SOTG, ITG, watching the NASL casts, and all the streams between them, you have been around to make SC2 personable and interesting. You make me want to come back because I always want to hear Incontrols opinion: from instantly-classic stories to pro-gamer insight. And not only do you appear as an icon for people to see in the SC community, you also make huge efforts to respond and comment to the every-man type of spectator. More so than with anyone before you, I really feel I have a connection into the starcraft scene. So again thank you. Apologies for rambling on there, after commenting on my precieved injustice of people using you as a relay station to your other teammates, I couldn't rest until I felt you knew I ( and I believe many others ) value you as much as anyone else on EG. As a last message of warning, just be careful what you advertise. I've picked up alot of leagues and tried subscriptions almost exclusively by your suggestion. I havn't been dissapointed yet in any of it but just be careful later on in your career. People really trust your words so never think what you say is falling on deaf ears, people listen and act based on what you say. I think the spider man quote here is pretty appropriate ^.^ Good luck, Incontrol hwaiting! | ||
