I strongly disagree - I think the only thing TLO has not is something you can learn: mechanic macro; he has this intuitivity of always making a move that his opponent won't expect; like the very hard push vs white ra in the second game; I'm sure no other terran (including morrow) would've done that, because TLO wasn't in a good position; nevertheless he sensed that he could catch even white ra off-guard right here, right now; this is something you can't really learn...

Awesome interview. He wasn't being condescending. Particularly because he pointed it out. I think Morrow took the place of TLO in my heart for now. He just made apparent that TLO's mechanics are lacking.

I think you are right. TLO has something nice, he just needs a bit time to get his solidness up. I cant wait to see how good he will be in a month or two.

I agreed with most of the things he said. Spot on. Protosses haven't figured out themselves with regard to each matchup yet.

I love his straight forwardness.

yes, but at the same time he noted his micro is inferior to one TLO has.

Thank you for a really great interview - the depth was fantastic, and it gave a really nice look into the mind and opinions of an otherwise quiet player! I, as well as many others apparently, really liked how straightforward and mature he was with his answers. While he may have seemed to come across as arrogant, I think that he only had that effect because he wants it to be known that he won the IEM tournament (and the many other tournaments) based on his skills, not his luck.

He seems like a very quiet guy, but putting myself in his shoes, I would start to become a little more vocal with my thoughts too if I wasn't getting the credit that I deserved. I think we can all agree that he faced the toughest road (in terms of the caliber of players that he defeated to win the tournament) to win at IEM, and he deserves his championship. I know that I would want my accomplishments (remember that he is the #1 rated StarCraft 2 player in the world according to the Gosu rankings due to his many, many wins) to be noted as well, because of my painstaking dedication and my skills. It would be really frustrating to win a championship and have many people try to validate his win by claiming that it was all due to imbalance.

I really like his attitude! I liked that he was able to admit that there was a TvZ imbalance and that he claimed that he hope that it gets fixed, really as a way to separate the men from the boys - you can't blame him for having the confidence to want to be able to prove that he is one of the best so that more people will give him the credit that he deserves.

Best of luck in the future MorroW, and I hope that your wishes come true so that you can show the world how talented you really are and receive the credit that you feel you deserve!

EDIT: I think that it would be interesting to interview IdrA next, to not only talk about himself and his career and such, but to also reflect on IEM and some of the things that MorroW said in this interview.

Wow. That was one of the most straight-forward interviews I've ever read. He complimented himself when he felt it was necessary and complimented others just the same. He comes clean with Terran imba but at the same time criticizes the Zerg complainers. Wonderful read.

People saying he's arrogant need to go watch the replays. He was a step above all other terrans at the tournament.

Really nice interview, i like the fact that Morrow is straight up honest with his answers (as mentioned above). It honestly seems like he's one of the tightest players around now, his micro/macro is extremely good.

Looking forward to see more from him in the upccoming tournaments.
We make signature, then defense it.

i really think a little arrogance can hurt.

modesty isn't always fake. If you're really into something, even if you are the best, you appreciate the aspects of it that other people have mastered better then you, and you are learning that part of it from them.

i felt he came across as petulant, i prefer the honestly modest pros.

Apparently you haven't seen the other IEM pictures:p
I think that IdrA should have won if Morrow doesn't "cheese" but regardless it was an exciting game, glad Morrow won

Great Interview , seriously people should do interviews just like Morrow , straight up answer the questions directly instead doing some kind of modest look or puppy faces or w/e.

Btw , People don't seem to remember that TLO isn't actually "A Terran Player" , or at least he hasn't been playing terran for that long , so it's not odd that Morrow didn't mention TLO as one of the best terrans.
I do strongly believe that TLO will be one of the best (if not THE BEST) Terran player in the future (if he sticks to Terran as his race) as soon he gets his Terran plays more and more solid , which shouldnt' be too long into the future , he just needs a little time.
