"We have to try and change the negative perception that video games hold in society. We need to make people realize that E-sports is an environment based on fair competition, and that progame teams are groups of professionals, not a bunch of addicts."

True. Progaming not always = with fat nerds.

thanks for the translation.

the replay thing is really interesting. would sc2 be a better esport without replays? maybe blizz needs to make it an option to disable replay recording in competition mode or something...

Boxer: I think one of Bisu’s strengths is that even though he’s introverted, he gets along with his teammates. It’s easy to grow arrogant when you’re as successful as Bisu, but he has no pretense of superiority at all. If his game plan isn’t working well, he’s not afraid to talk to his teammates and look for an answer, which is something I could learn.

Sweet.

the replay feature is cool at the amateur level where people can see each others' games again, but at the pro level, it's terrible.

Down with replays. Why not make a choice in SC2, players can choose to allow replay when starting their games?

I see the point on replays. It takes someone hours upon hours to conceive, build and practice a new strategy. But it only takes a couple minutes to watch a replay and copy down the exact build order and timings. It doesn't seem fair.

Good interview, even if it wasn't the most informative. It's always just nice to hear progamers referencing their outside lives and getting a glimpse of what they are like as a person and not just a player.

Actually it's just a matter of not letting other players know the details of a new strategy. I think maybe they can make it in such away that replays will be kept by KeSPA, and players will not get access to any of these. Those replays will be stored as "files" in a "database" sort of thing. It should be fine =) I do think the replay feature helps more than it harms.
