RainbOw aka HopeTorture: "I want to aim for the first place"

[image loading]


- You made it to Ro64 8-0
▲ I'm happy I made it. This is the beginning, and I will prepare well.

- You played Protoss in SC1, but you're Terran in SC2.
▲ My friends all played Zerg and Protoss on SC2. I picked the one that the least amount of people around me were playing. Back then, Terran was bad, so a lot of people switched races. I picked Protoss in SC1 because not that many people were playing it.

- What's the most attractive about terran?
▲ There are a lot to control. Units like reaper, thor, and viking are unique and fun to control. One big battle used to decide the winner, but now there are a lot of good strategies out.

- You won easily today, what's your goal for the tournament?
▲ I think I need to play harder. There is a lot at stake, and it will be fun, so I want to win first place.

- How are you doing in the ladder?
▲ I'm about 1300 points in diamond, and 4th in Blizzard ranking.

- Who do you think will be your rival?
▲ I don't know. Proabably Tester, Cool, (two other players). I don't know because there aren't that much information about the players. I think it will be difficult to play against ex-progamers since they have good concentration.

- What did you do after you quit progaming?
▲ I had a lot of free time. I was doing something else, and when I saw SC2, I tried it out. I was doing better than I expected, so I continued playing. I quit at 3rd closed beta, but when I heard about GSL, I wanted to try and get 1st place.

- What clan are you in currently?
▲ I am in oGs, and I'm not planning on joining a team. I don't want to be a progamer, I just want to enjoy it. I have a job, so I don't have time to be a progamer anyway.

- You still have a lot of fans.
▲ Thank you for cheering me on and I will repay with fun games.

+ Show Spoiler [Original Article] +

- 8전 전승으로 64 진출에 성공했다
▲ 어쨌든 통과해서 기쁘고, 이제 시작이니까 준비 잘 해보려고 한다.

- 스타1 때는 프로토스였지만, 스타2에서는 테란을 선택했는데
▲ 스타2가 나온 뒤에 주위 친구들과 플레이 해봤는데 다들 저그, 프로토스만 하더라. 그래서 주위 사람들이 안 하는 테란을 선택해본 것이다. 그 당시에는 테란이 안 좋아서 다들 몇 번 해보고 안 하더라. 스타1을 할 때도 남들이 프로토스를 잘 안 하길래 골랐던 것이다(웃음).

- 테란이라는 종족의 매력 포인트를 꼽자면
▲ 하나하나 컨트롤 요소가 많아서 재미있다. 사신, 토르, 바이킹 같은 유닛들도 모두 특이해서 컨트롤의 재미가 있는 것 같다. 예전에는 한방 싸움이 중요했는데, 요즘은 좋은 전략이 많이 나와서 그런 것에 매력을 느끼고 있다.

- 오늘은 무난하게 승리했는데, 이번 대회 64강에 임하는 목표가 있다면
▲ 일단 게임을 좀 더 열심히 해야겠다는 생각이 든다. 상금 규모도 크고, 재미있을 것 같아서 나도 이런 대회에서 우승을 하고 싶기도 하다.

- 현재 스타2 래더 성적은 어느 정도 되는지
▲ 다이아몬드 리그 1300점 정도고, 블리자드 공식 랭킹은 4위다.

- 본선에서는 누가 가장 라이벌이 될 것 같나
▲ 글쎄, 어떻게 될지 잘 모르겠다. 서기수, 김원기 같은 친구들이나 이형주, 곽한얼 같은 선수들이 아닐까 싶다. 예전에 곰TV에서 주최했던 대회에서는 곽한얼 선수가 우승하고 내가 준우승을 했었다. 하지만 사실 선수들에 대한 정보가 많지 않아서 잘 모르겠다. 그냥 프로게이머를 했던 분들이 집중력도 좋고 하니까 만나게 되면 껄끄러울 것 같다.

- 프로게이머를 그만 둔 뒤에 어떻게 지냈나
▲ 개인적인 시간이 많아서 너무 좋았다. 다른 일을 하다가 스타2가 나와서 다시 해봤는데 의외로 성적이 좋아서 계속 하게 됐다. 클로즈 베타 3차 때는 대회가 없어서 게임을 접었었는데, GSL이 시작된다는 소식을 듣고 취미를 넘어 우승에 도전해보고 싶다는 생각이 강해졌다.

- 현재 소속은 어떻게 되는지
▲ oGs 클랜에 속해 있고, 따로 팀에 들어갈 생각은 없다. 프로게이머가 될 생각은 전혀 없고, 그냥 즐기고 싶다. 지금 직업이 있기 때문에 프로게이머로 활동을 할만한 시간도 없다.

- 아직도 열렬히 응원하는 팬들이 많은데
▲ 응원해주셔서 너무 고맙고, 재미있는 게임으로 보답하겠다.

Not to detract from Idra and TLO of course, but I expected more from korea. More foreigner smashing.


This isn't broodwar. Sc2 is a different game korean's are not automatically going to be better then every foreigner like in bw.

When I think of something else, something will go here

Automatic advancement to the next level. Like if a tournament has 7 people, then 1 person can't play and automatically goes to ro4.

absolutely true...

for sure after this GSL the koreans are going to think "hey wtf, a guy from other country won 85.000 usd!!!! THAT SHOULD BE MINE" and its going to get really competitive...

and if TL/Idra gets far in this championship I bet that the next time we will see more foreign players going to korea and try to take the prize.

lol I didn't notice that when I read the interview. That is one of the most sadistic sounding handles ever. If you don't understand the language, stick with single word names for safety

I think it's Tester, Cool, Check, and Maka that Rainbow is looking out for. I'm pretty sure everyone in the GSL is scared of Tester, Cool, Check, and Maka, so it makes sense.

I didn't know Rainbow quit SC2 (for a while). I guess that's why Spunky said he had slipped or something.

Well I would think the koreans Idra and other foreigners have played against in the past have respect for them but it might be embarassing for korean players to say they are most afraid of a foreigner or see one as their rival. Maybe that will change if foreigners can get good results.
