Zerg is all about execution. If only due to the fact that one drone can become a building, the entire order of gameplay can be changed by the addition of a hatchery later on in the game. So with this in mind it’s all execution ;;; But suddenly a player like Park Sung-jun (Julyzerg) who is a micro-intensive gamer shows up… so again there is no absolutes.
------------------
Hi is there anyone can explain to me... what does "execution" here mean?

something like macro? expansion? produce? or anything else?
Im going translate the interview into chinese... help

Execution can be defined as the way or method you complete something. To a degree it's a certain kind of style. Execution is the actual act of performing something so it's probably something like putting your strategies into actual motion. That's what execution is.

By the way, how does Uhjoo get interviews like this? (i.e., how does he know all these guys in order to interview them and stuff like that )

Edit: And Zhyan, my interpretation of that would be that Zerg is all about very precise building order and perfect macro.

I think he means like, you decide your going to use a strategy that, for example, revolves around drops to help you gain and advantage into 4gas hive tech and win the game.

How you execute your drops (possibly th key element in your strategy) is very important. If you suceed to a certain degree, you're looking good for a win. If you fail, the terran is in a very strong position to beat you. This is why execution is very important to zergs, because whilst strategy is very important, it's how good you make the strategy work which can mean the difference between winning and losing.

Really good interview btw uhjoo. As an aspiring journo it really had all the elements of a throughly prepared and brilliantly written article.

Btw, you seem to have many "high-up" connections in the BW world. How do you get to meet/know all these people?

RowdierBob's description is a good one about the meaning of execution... in Korean the word is "운영"(pronounced "oon-young"-- perhaps you can identify the analagous word in Chinese as many Korean words are based on Chinese characters?)-- basically meaning overall gameplay-- how you execute your strategies, how you control the map, how well you anticipate the other side's actions, troop movement, etc.

Hope that helps. :D
