Q: Bisu mentioned that micro is actually more important in Starcraft II than Brood War. Do you feel that it's true?
A: Yes, I'm finding it hard to micro in big fights. Because I'm just starting out, my hands won't do what I want them to. It's been hard adjusting.
Are you serious?

Stephano getting a shoutout from Jaedong! :D Maybe they will meet up when Stephano is in KR and train in secret. One can dream..

So fucking great. JAEDONG speaking to US!!! HOLY SHIT :D Thank you thank you thank you. I waited so long for this article! <3
|
These interviews are so freaking sexy. Thanks so much Wax <3

I usually root against every protoss player except for MC but I got to admit, i'm liking this Bisu guy already. And of course Jaedong, he will be a much needed addition to the swarm. Also Coach Park seems to be a super intelligent and professional guy. I have to see how this Proleague goes before jumping on any teams bandwagon but with a guy like that as coach you can't go wrong.

seriously though why is jaedong posing like that?

his first quote has nothing to with micro, and the second section is strictly comparing BW mutas to SC2 mutas in terms of micro, not general micro...are people actually... I don't know what to say, obvious troll?

He was talking SPECIFICALLY about the old muta micro. That no longer exists in SC2. Therefore, he became stressed because one of his trademarks was gone in SC2. He never said that there was less micro in SC2, only that there is no longer the same muta micro that he became famous for.

One thing I'm curious about...will skt and slayers merge once the year long restriction between gsl and kespa is over? Will we see the return of the emperor to his kingdom?
|
I'm glad that they are so positive about starcraft 2, good read.
|
Very interesting interviews! Also JD and Bisu are awesome
|
Oh, silly Bisu. Korea IS the premier league of Starcraft!
|
Thanks for the interviews! Great stuff!
What do you think the biggest difference between the Brood War and Starcraft II is?
I think Starcraft II is – how to put it – faster? The game feels a lot faster on the whole.
I haven't played a lot yet, so I don't know if this is correct, but I think it's difficult.
That ought to shut a couple people up xD

Anaheim's going to be freaking sick, even if their skill level isn't up yet. The Hero and Stephano mentions are well deserved.
|
so.. i played vs stephano today. Now this jaedong interview screwed my reality to a point where... is this even real life? brb taking a cold shower.
|
thank you wax for asking all of the questions that were on our minds. one of the best interviews i have ever read on any subject. i am so friggin' excited....
|
I just really hope they dont lose because their ability to play much faster than others wont be an advantage anymore due to starcraft II not requiring as much apm to play just as well
