Is there anything you still miss in SC2?

White-Ra: Yes, I think they need to make Zerg a little stronger.


you heard it from the man guys!

If it wsa IdrA saying Zerg needs to be made stronger everyone would be going crazy over nothing.

It's a fact that Zerg is still underpowered (and it will become even more so regarding ZvP).

If you advance to the playoffs, is there a player who you would like to play against in the quarter finals?

White-Ra: All players are strong, so I don't know. For me it's not a big difference who is going to be my next enemy.

fantastic answer, Mr. -Ra. baller-status achieved

The more pros in Korea the better and bigger StarCraft community both in and out of Korea will get.

to be frank, I would be surprised if he even qualified


I'm sure he would do fine, but only if he had the time needed to adapt.
Besides, take white-ra now, and imagine him in Korea with the amount of practice he would get there?

White-Ra is awesome :D. It'd be cool if he went to Korea, I actually think he could make S class given the level he's currently playing at.

White-Ra would be a very cool addition to the foreigners in Korea. If he does he should definitely practice with the oGs and TL guys!

I like those odds from White-ra. Very exciting to see any player going to Korea for a shot in the GSL.

My personal opinion is that kiwi would do better in the korean enviroment , white-ra is somehow predictable and we all know where this leads into korean games. Getting cheesed non stop

yeah. I guess someone like white-ra wouldn't be able to alter his style but play like a robot instead.

oh wait

Would be awesome to see him compete in the GSL. I wonder if he's really good enough for code S though? It's already super competitive over there. Either way, I'd support him and I have a bunch of Protoss friends that think he's the best lol. WhiteRa fighting!

Ye coz idra and jinro, the most succesful foreigners in korea are known for the creativity and off the wall play, oh wait-

white_ra is basically the anti-thesis of idra.
Fun, aggressive play and humble pre-game talk. I feel bad for his wife though... having the #1 European SC2 player as a husband can't be easy. Duckload fighting!

For me, WhiteRa is the first European pro player that stood out at having personality as he played.

Fact is, he makes the game really exciting to watch.
Very few other players are quite as entertaining and at that high level. TLO maybe.

He can be pretty damn aggressive, especially when culling the swarm, but he's not afraid to get 12 Warp Gates and macro if he needs to.

Also, the thread on TL with him photo-shopped was one of the funniest things I ever saw.

Good luck WhiteRa. Nice to know someone is popular and actually deserves it.

WhiteRa? Predictable? This is news to me. Yes, he tends to draw games out into the later stages, but he is never afraid to end the game early if he thinks he can. Mr. Ra is one of the most versatile and solid Protoss in the world, aside from MC.

Furthermore, the idea that Koreans will always cheese a "predictable" player is non-sense. Even if you were right about both WhiteRa and the Koreans, WhiteRa is stellar at dealing with cheese.
