What would it be?

List one question you would like to ask any progamer, and then list a second question that you would want to ask a specific pro gamer. Is there a motive for this thread? Sure is, come up with something creative and you may just see it in a future interview

I know my question is not gonna get selected for an interview because it's too personal, but i think it would be good to know what bw really means to them.

Manifesto7: I am interested in how they manage their time between massive practice sessions, breaks, eating, and any other activities they may have. How long and how hard to they practice? How long do they need to recover before doing it again? How much practice do they need? Does it need to be close to game time? These aren't my questions for you to ask; I can't think of any, so I'm just trying to get my curiousity across. Sorry. :-)
A forum is as good as its worst member, or maybe a little better than that if you are good at skimming.

Mani,

Since you have connections you could try encourage them to play top foreigners, since they're obviously clueless to our scene. Ask whether they'd be interested in a showmatch or something.

What other progamer do you respect the most?

What league is most important to you?
When you play in more than one major league, can you be successfull in both, or will you have to focus on one? (e.g boxer doing well in osl but not in ktf)

For eventually Boxer; How did you feel when you won the legendary match vs Joyo on Paradoxxx? How did you even manage to win that?

What do you think of team leagues, and why do you think pro gamers puts less practice into these leagues compared to standard ones like osl?

I don't think that'd be answered honestly. It'd almost be considered cheating.

Rednob's questions seem pretty good. I'd like to see something like, "What inspired you to start playing BW?" or "What inspired you to train hard enough to become a pro BW player?" Maybe both of them as successive questions.

Do you think it is some kind of talent or why do koreans own every RTS game?
Why did the World Cyber Games become less attractive to korean pros?
If possible, is playing bw professionally something you would like to do your whole life or would you prefer other future plans?
Why do you think dominating players like Boxer or Yellow somehow got rid of their crown? Is playing bw professionally only possible in the age of 18-22?

that would be mine

Has your perception of the game changed with your skill level increasing? [[To illustrate what I mean: When I started playing Sc in 1998, I kinda "divided" the maps (expansions) into parts that belong to the enemy and parts that belong to me. Later, when I had played online, I kind of considered all expansions as sth. the players fight for (i.e. MINE). It might be, that to players at extreme levels, Broodwar is like the matrix- they only see numbers floating...]]

What do you think about the next version of SC (if it ever comes true)? Will you immediately switch to the new version? Do you think a poor SC2 can ruin your job, because it will make people stop playing the old one, while the new one is not a good substituion?

How do you practice? Do you just play the same partner over and over again all day in preparation for a match? Do you do any hand exercises to keep your hands in shape and do you have any secondary programs to help hand speed, coordination or anything else?

to NaDa: What do you think has changed in terms of player skill and style? What do you think of oov's style, do you like it or dislike it? Are there any progamers who have been detrimental to the community? What made you leave KTF (Yes yes we all know the answer but I want to hear it from him) and please contrast KTF and P&C.

What is the best and the worst thing of being a bw progamer?

What kind of job do you like to have if you weren't a progamer?

to any newcomer: do you think you have any kind of advantage/disadvantage (bw related of course) compared to the old-school of starcraft (boxer, yellow, themarine, reach etc)?

Who do you consider to be the scariest pro to face right now?

wow, lots of really great questions here. I hope all the good ones are used =p

Mine would be: "When I play a serious game, my whole arms and shoulders tense up. After a couple of games, I feel very sore, and can't play again for a while. How do you physically manage to put in 8 or 10 hours of serious gaming each day? Don't your wrists hurt?"

The day life, when training: Do you practise in the mornings, afternoons, evenings, nights, all-time ?

At work, when practising: You practise directly with Team mates only, or are there more players at office to play with ?

When facing at work practising with each other in the Team, do you feel all the strength is showed? I mean, if you teach each other the tricks and tactics, or you just play many games ?

Do you have at work an schedule, or you can play at any hour you want ?

What kind of control does your boss over you ? Have you got to play a given number of hours, or to play a concrete number of games... or what ? How do you finish a normal day of work ?

haha Freak, the ironic thing is that I train in MMA and probably have a denser muscle mass in my forearms then 99% of the people here. It's not moving the mouse that makes you tired, it's tensing because of the stress.

Best one so far imo!

I always liked questions that go a bit more in-depth strategy, it's always interesting to hear their views... But I don't except they'd want to share to much of their thinking T_T Good thread, anyways!
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

I'd be interested to hear what their plans for the future are. Not the immediate future, like getting into the next Starleague or whatever, but the long term future. Nearly all progamers (I think?) are also in college right now, getting a degree and preparing for a career after gaming, and I'd like to know what they're interested in and plan on doing later in life. (plus, it's the kind of question that you could get an actual answer from the pros about!)

Yesterday before I went to sleep I thought about Nal_rA`s interview. If I ever had chance to interview him tihs are the questions I would ask. I will write questions that you Manifesto didn`t ask him.

Starcraft related questions, no particular order:
Q Before you have match on TV how do you prepare for it?
Q Do you ever feel very nervous before TV games? When you felt the most nervous?
Q You don`t show it, but are you sometimes angry about your performance in leagues?

Manifesto7: I am interested in how they manage their time between massive practice sessions, breaks, eating, and any other activities they may have. How long and how hard to they practice? How long do they need to recover before doing it again? How much practice do they need? Does it need to be close to game time? These aren't my questions for you to ask; I can't think of any, so I'm just trying to get my curiousity across. Sorry. :-)

yeah good wuestions i would ask the same

If you were asked by Blizzard to design a new unit for an upcoming StarCraft expansion, what kind of unit would you make?

Are there any balance changes you'd like to see in a patch for StarCraft?

Have you ever made any maps for StarCraft?

Have you ever played on a money map (like Fastest map ever, etc) and do you ever play any UMS games?

No. These questions don't go. This is not some former Cory Haim fan club. We don't have posters of progamers up on our walls. It should be about the game.. your first set of questions was better (not included in the quote)

well i have some questions:
(like if I (myself) am asking to a pro)

1st - When you win over someone that is like your rival, dont you just want to get "EEEEE!!!!!" instead of just taking your devices back?

2nd - Do you get, or ever got, so ansious that sometimes you get your hand shaking and cant control your mouse the way you can?

3rd - Did you already played some live match sick? How did it go? How did you feel? How did you focus on the game?

4th - Do you think that would be interesting some match like Korean Progamers vs Rest of the World?

5th - Is there anything in the game that you HATE when it happens? For example, if you are a zerg playing against a toss and the bastard drop 2 hts in your mineral line and storm all your peons.

[EDIT]6th - Do you enjoy playing some UMS like microwars? Or do/did you use it for micro training or something like that?[/EDIT]

An question for a progamer:

this question goes to iloveoov: Tell us a little about you becoming a progamer. The story that I know is that boxer took some KICKASSES amateurs for his team, when he was going to ORION and you were one of them.

thats it, thank you, i hope you like at least one of the questions.

Q: How much do you think practice / experience matters and how much does talent, in terms of percentages? (80/20 or 50/50)

Lol, I doubt they play SC, when they're not practicing. Oh and btw, you can't practice micro by playing micro games...

  1. What is the single most important factor for a top caliber progamer to win vs another top caliber progamer? Is it psychological factors, knowledge of the map, avoid making mistakes, reaction speed, playing style, the ability to adapt into unexpected situations in a game or something else?

  2. What's the skill gap between someone that is a veteran in qualifying for Star Leagues, players that are in Challenge/Minor league, and Preliminaries? Is it just the factor of playing in front of a live audiences? Or is there an even more indept knowledge of the game involved?

- in how many games do you REALLY have to play 110% to win, and how often a "straight" game is enough

- what's the ratio between fun/hard work in playing SC. how did that ratio change over the time and how do you overcome times when the enjoyment is low/gone
