Nooo I'm older than people now this is so weird seeing someone state their age in pro foeigner interviews and have them be younger D: aaaagh. At this age it doesn't even really matter but it still bothers me for some silly reason

always thought morrow was underrated by many and im glad he has shown the world what he is capable of. to be at the top, you have to have an abundance of self-confidence and yes it can come off as arrogance but i'd rather see a player be totally honest then cover it up with false-modesty. just look at top athletes like federer, c.ronaldo, bolt...etc and you'll understand.

Yes that was him.

Honestly, after the post-tourney interview I was a bit pissed of myself. When the interviewer was just talking about Terran imbalance in the interview I was like wtf - these things should be done to celebrate his great success, not to hint at the winner not being the deserving champion.
And even though I hadnt been on TL.net during the time in cologne I obviously already know that the LR threads would be full of whining zerg players who would attribute his success solely to imbalance.

Morrow is a guy where you just feel how incredibly ambitious he is and that he's working really really hard on becoming a top pro gamer. Like he already mentioned himself, the other players were already out dancing and partying and he was still in front of the computer, just practicing like crazy. If you think that he's slowly gonna fade away once Terran gets nerfed, you're a fool.
Morrow's gonna be around for a long time to come.

He's not the only one that thinks so. Nazgul also said that he thinks that there just aren't that many strong Protoss players around.

was pissed against morrow after the win against idra. but after reading through this interview it seems like he doesn't seem to get enough recognition though.

however the way he puts his words across seems like he wants blizzard to nerf terrans and have more protosses and zergs come up so that he can beat them and show that he is indeed the better player. quite the attitude imo(in the way i see it,no offense,just commenting)

And is it me or does he have something against TLO? he doesn't seem to credit TLO and instead says that other terrans are better, as though we are overhyping TLO

He thinks TLO will be the best foreigner after a few months in Korea.

TLO is probably being overhyped. He's a creative player with great micro but those kind of players get crushed by more solid standard macro players in BW. TLO's days will come where his style no longer surprises his opponents.

There was so much rage on the LR thread that people never recognized Morrow's godly micro and multitasking and macro. Beating Idra 3-1 is not easy and Morrow definitely seemed like he was ahead of the rest of the Terrans.

It comes across as if Morrow feels he doesn't get the respect he deserves for beating Idra.

I like that he says he wants Terran to get nerfed so it can separate the men from the boys, but I think until that happens any Terran player isn't going to get much hype around them like the dimaga or idras.

I don't know about the macro game on blistering vs Idra either. Idra made mistakes this is for sure. But I don't know if it was a fair fight. it wasn't a 'straight-up' macro game, because as Morrow said, the table was stacked in his favour from his opening.

All this said though, one good way to measure up a player is vs his own race. And in this sense Morrow is outstanding. I can't wait to see how he develops and if as the game develops he can maintain the sort of performance he showed at IEM.

Thanks for the great interview. The questions were on point and the responses provided actual answers. It does seem like he contradicts himself a little bit but I understand his point about even if there is a little imbalance, it's still going to be the person making more mistakes 90% of the time that gets the loss.

All in all a very revealing look into morrow's thoughts. A+ from me

Wow, what's with his attitude in this interview. He sounds so cocky and arrogant, especially the part where he says he's one step above other terrans..... Good interview though.

Morrow has always been very underrated, even more so in BW. He would often say things that could easily be interpreted as egotistical, especially in text form, but it's clear he just wants more recognition and respect for all the effort he put in.

Of course it's difficult to complain about not getting the attention you deserve without sounding like a twat. Personally I think the wise thing to do is to avoid trying altogether.
No I'm never serious.

Nice interview, it paints a pretty good picture of the SC2 scene since beta, focusing on TvZ in particular.

If protoss player are less skilled than terran why did he lose against chobo?
edit: anyways he is a good player but he should be careful of what he is saying

I loved the interview and have new found respect for MorroW. He's straight up honest confident to the border of arrogance but a darned well rounded player.

He does contradict himself and ofcourse no one likes winning a tournament (with the likes of TLO, whitera and idra participating in) and being called a noob or an abuser.

I can't believe he's 18 either. Very solid points of view and it gave me a lot of insights into his thinking. I wish more players would be straight up and honest.

And I can't wait for Nony/Tyler to take up the protoss mantle and show us what our race can do!

I don't think he meant to say that he was the best player there but the player who performed best in the event. I believe it is a common error swedes do when trying to communicate in english (due to swedish grammar).


Either way I think he is right. A high ranking brood war terran is going to be the most rounded sc2 terran there is. I think his play showed that

I hope Terran gets nerfed, so the better Terrans are more apparent and so more Protoss and Zerg get the wins they deserve.

I hope for this to. It will be a nice testing period to see which terrans are exactly good and which are just outright abusive.
