this guy is full of talent, i like to watch his play even im zerg player, and there are really few players that keep me interested in their play.
also love this "I acutally think xigua is 2 levels better than Idra, so there wasn't much pressure playing against him in the real match." from xiaot's interview ^^ what a baller

Could you maybe link the brackets or tell the results in spoiler tags? Cause I can't seem to find it on my own (Don't speak Chinese as you might have guessed.)

Hey!
First of all: Sign me up!
Second: How is "Xiaot" correctly pronounced? I am asking this cause I got a little bit into Chinese and tried to figure out how to pronounce his name. So, yeah most people pronounce the X like "dsh" or like the "zh" in pinyin - kind of similar to how you pronounce the "X" in "anxious". But if "Xiaot" is somehow meant to be pinyin than the X would have to be pronounced completeley differently (like "hs" in the Giles-script). However what gives me most trouble is the "t" at the end. I mean is this typical of Chinese? A "t" at the end? Can someone explain please? ^^

The "t" stands alone.

Hmm, you say this cause you know? Know based on what? I mean, I understand the "t" standing alone, makes perfect sense - but the X pronounced as a "sh"? Are you sure about that one?
Thanks for helping me out with the "t" anyways!

Looking at his name, I guess he's chinese.
I honestly don't know where your info came from, but it is wrong. His name is based on the Pinyin, a notation of the chinese words in the roman alphabet. If you want to know how to pronounce the pinyin in english, check wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinyin#Rules_given_in_terms_of_English_pronunciation
"Xi" is pronounced as "She", altho it just slightly different it's very close. "ao" is pronounced as "ow" as in cow the T is a stand-alone. The name means Little Templar, he explain his nickname many years ago. Hence the stand-alone T.
