If you know who [B_BLaDE]LEADER is, you have either done your homework, or you have been interested in StarCraft progaming from the very beginning. He was the runner up to X'Ds~Grrrr... in the last Blizzard-held World Championships about 9 years ago. He was one of the original fathers of terran. I remember reading about how he made speed and mines before siege against protoss and thinking "HOW CAN HE POSSIBLY LIVE!!!".

Well, you might not remember all of that, but im quite sure you know his face, because he is one of the oldest OGN commentators now. He was also one of the commentators who went to Italy for WCG 06, so some of you might have met him there. Anyways, turns out that I got to interview him haha.

really a treat for me. an original father of the hardest race answering whatever i wanted to ask him. =P

Watched this yesterday, good interview, and he speaks english very well. Would have liked for you to ask him more about his time as a progammer and his favorite games he played and stuff but the interview was still good. Keep up the good work Art

I love seeing talking/discussing old school gosus, and the interview was a real treat.

Did he play any games after 1.08/1.09, therefore having replays?
