Interviews+ Show Spoiler [Idra] +IdrA: "I'm honored to have a spot in the GSL"![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/l10f/translations/idragslqual1.jpg) - How do you feel about making it through with all wins? ▲ I'm happy I made it to the tournament with defeating everyone. - You've been doing well in StarCraft II tournaments ▲ I got 2nd in IEM in Germany, and before that I won the King of Kings End of Beta Tournament. - You're still CJ player as far as I know, did you have any problems entering the league? ▲ I was in CJ, but I left already. My contract ends the 31st of this month, and since it's almost over, I joined GSL. - Have you decided a new team to join? ▲ I want to join a team not associated with KeSPA. I don't have a specific team yet. - You were Terran in SC1, why did you switch to Zerg? ▲ I thought about changing race in SC1 since Terran didn't fit me, and I felt that Zerg fit my style better than Protoss. That's why I chose Zerg. - What do you think is attractive about the Zerg race? ▲ I like playing games having good economy and large armies, and I think Zerg fits that description the best. - What do you think about the balance? ▲ It's difficult to defend early rushes as Zerg, but I think the balance is getting better after every patch. - Where are you living in Korea? ▲ I'm still in CJ house, but I'm leaving soon. I think I'll stay with a friend until I find a team. - Your goals and determination for this GSL ▲ I hope the Korean fans enjoy my games. I'm honored to have a spot in the GSL, and I think it's going to be fun, so look forward to it. + Show Spoiler [Original Article] +- 전승으로 예선을 통과한 소감은
▲ 모두 이기고 본선에 오르게 돼서 기쁘다.
- 일찍이 스타크래프트2 대회에 참가해 좋은 성적을 거두고 있는데
▲ 얼마 전 독일에서 열린 IEM에서는 2등을 차지했고, 그 전에는 팀리퀴드 대회나 베타 테스트 당시 해외 마지막 대회였던 킹 오브 킹에서도 우승을 했었다.
- 아직 CJ 선수인걸로 아는데, 대회 참가에는 문제가 없었나
▲ 나는 CJ 선수였지만, 이미 팀에 남아 있지 않다. 계약 기간은 이번 달 31일까지 남아 있는데, 막바지라 참여하게 됐다.
- 새롭게 합류할 팀은 정했는지
▲ KeSPA와 관련되지 않은 팀들로 생각 중이다. 아직 정확히 가겠다고 계획된 팀은 없다.
- 스타1 당시 테란이었는데, 저그로 종족을 바꾼 이유가 있나
▲ 스타1 당시에도 테란이 잘 안 맞는 것 같아서 종족을 바꿀 생각이었는데, 프로토스로도 해봤지만 저그가 더 체질에 맞는 것 같았다. 그래서 저그를 선택했다.
- 저그라는 종족의 매력이 뭐라고 생각하는지
▲ 저그만의 확장력과 풍부한 자원을 이용한 물량 게임을 좋아하고, 그런 것에 있어서 저그가 가장 알맞은 것 같았다.
- 종족 간 밸런스에 대해서는 어떻게 생각하나
▲ 아무래도 저그는 초반 러시를 수비하기 어려운 종족이라 헤매는 경향이 있었는데, 패치를 통해서 한 걸음씩 더 완벽한 밸런스에 다가서고 있는 것 같다고 생각된다.
- 요즘 국내에서의 생활은 어디서 하고 있나
▲ 아직은 CJ 숙소에 있지만 곧 나올 것이다. 다른 팀에 들어가기 전까지는 친구와 지낼 것 같다.
- 이번 GSL에 임하는 목표와 각오는
▲ 한국 팬들이 내 경기를 즐겨주면 좋겠다. GSL에서 한 자리를 차지하게 돼서 영광이고, 굉장히 재미있을 것 같으니까 팬 분들도 기대 많이 해주시면 좋겠다.

I don't think things until now will matter anymore, and I don't think Terran will get stronger in the future. It's not good for me (laughs). - Why did you join oGs? ▲ I beat TheWinD hyung in the brain box tournament, and he recommende me to the team. I went as soon as I got invited (laughs). I'm living with him in the team house. - You're the first from your team to advance. ▲ The rest of the players will definitely make it, so I'll need to start getting nervous. I think I'll meet them in the main tournament. - Your determination for GSL? ▲ You ask me this every time, and I don't have much to say. I'll just try my best. Of course my goal is 1st place, but I'm happy I got through the qualifiers. + Show Spoiler [Original Article] +
- 64강 본선에 진출한 소감은
▲ 대회라 긴장하고 왔는데, 준비한 것에 비해 부전승도 하고 쉽게 올라간 것 같다.
- 밸런스에서 우위에 서 있다는 평가의 ‘테란’으로 플레이 중인데
▲ 지금이 딱 좋은 것 같은데, 곧 패치가 된다는 소리를 들으니까 처음으로 다시 돌아가서 열심히 해야 할 것 같다. 이제까지 한 것은 의미 없는 것 같고, 앞으로 테란이 더 좋아질 일은 없는 것 같다. 큰일났다(웃음).
- oGs 소속으로 활동하게 된 계기가 있나
▲ 예전에 브레인 박스 대회에서 (박)상익이 형을 이긴 적이 있는데, 그 뒤로 상익이 형이 추천을 해주셨고 게임을 하다 보니까 팀에서 나를 불러주셨다. 그래서 바로 달려갔다(웃음). 숙소에서도 함께 생활하고 있다.
- 팀에서 가장 먼저 본선에 진출했는데
▲ 남은 형들은 무조건 올라오실 거니까 이제 나도 긴장을 해야 할 것 같다. 본선에서 만나게 될 것 같다.
- GSL에 임하는 각오는
▲ 각오를 매번 물어보시는데 진짜 특별히 할 말 없고, 그냥 열심히 하겠다는 생각 밖에 없다. 당연히 우승이라는 목표를 갖고 나오긴 했지만, 일단은 예선을 통과해 마음이 편하다.
Source: http://www.fomos.kr/board/board.php?mode=read&keyno=110205&db=interview&cate=&page=1&field=&kwrd=Thanks l10f! miso: I'm confident in ZvT![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/l10f/translations/misogslqual1.jpg) - How do you feel about making it to Ro64? ▲ Ro64 was my goal and I'm happy I made it. I'm confident in my ZvT, so I hope I meet a Terran player next game. - You've never been a professional gamer, but you're one of the top Zerg players. ▲ People say Zerg is worse than other races balance wise, but I think the balance is good in the higher levels. I think Zerg is just difficult for beginners. ZvP is a tough matchup for me. - Did you have trouble today? ▲ The last game was a little difficult, but the rest were worse than the players I practiced with. I think I had good luck in the brackets. No one was a former progamer. - You must look forward to the new patch. ▲ I'm excited, but I heard the patch is coming after GSL. I think the 5 second increase in Zealot making time was a very good idea (laughs). - I heard you're still a student, how will you prepare for GSL? ▲ I'm in Zenith clan, and unlike oGs and Prime, Zenith is an amateur clan. We devise our own strategy, and I think I made it thanks to my clanmates. I think I can get farther if I continue practicing with them. - Your ID is still "miso" ▲ I'll use my Zenith clan name once the name change comes around. It was because I wasn't in Zenith when I made the account. - Your determination for the GSL? ▲ I will as much as I can and get to Ro16 to show the power of the Zenith clan. + Show Spoiler [Original Article] +
- 64강 본선에 오르게 된 소감은
▲ 목표가 64강 이었는데 오르게 돼서 일단 다행이라고 생각한다. 테란전이 자신 있는 편이라서 다음 경기에서도 테란을 만나면 좋겠다.
- 프로로 활동한 경력이 없지만, 저그 상위 랭커로 활약 중이다
▲ 저그가 밸런스 상으로 많이 안 좋다고 하는데, 상위권에서는 어느 정도 밸런스가 맞는 것 같다고 생각한다. 다만 종족 자체가 조금 초보의 벽이 높아서 안 좋다는 이야기가 많은 것 같다. 밸런스를 떠나서 개인적으로는 프로토스전이 어렵다.
- 오늘 경기 중 고비는 없었나
▲ 마지막 경기만 조금 어려웠고, 나머지는 일반 연습 게임 했던 선수들 보다는 다소 쉬웠던 것 같다. 다행히 대진운은 상당히 좋았다. 프로게이머 출신의 선수들은 없었다.
- 조만간 패치가 진행될 예정이라 기대가 클 것 같다
▲ 기대를 많이 갖고 있다. 그런데 GSL이 끝나고 나서 패치를 한다고 들어서 그 점은 아쉽다. 광전사 생산이 5초 늘어난 것은 아주 개념이라고 생각한다(웃음).
- 아직 학생이라고 했는데, 준비는 어떻게 할 생각인지
▲ 내가 제니스 클랜에 소속 돼 있는데 제니스는 oGs, Prime 같은 팀들과는 다르게 아마추어 클랜이다. 그래도 우리 나름대로 전략 같은 것도 많이 연구하고 있는데, 팀원들이 잘 도와줘서 올라온 것 같다. 앞으로도 팀원들과 연습하면 더 높이 올라갈 수 있을 것 같다.
- 아직 아이디는 ‘miso’를 사용 중인데
▲ 아이디 변경 기간에 제니스 클랜 이름을 넣을 예정이다. 초창기 멤버가 아니라서 그렇다.
- GSL에 임하는 각오 한 마디
▲ 무조건 많이 이기고 16강까지 올라 제니스의 위상을 높이겠다.

Iron aka JangMinChul : "I want to earn money for my mother"![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/l10f/translations/irongslqual1.jpg) - How do you feel about making it to Ro64? ▲ I went to oGs house yesterday to practice, and I think it helped. I just played 3 PvP matches, and it was tough. - Why is PvP tough? ▲ I think PvP is more all-in than skill. I want to play a Zerg in Ro64. Zerg is just a meal to me (laughs). - What made you switch to SC2? ▲ I didn't care about SC2 when it first came out, but I started after hearing about GSL. I thought about it a lot. I didn't get what I wanted in the contract, and since I can earn just as much if I make Ro32 in GSL, I decided to play SC2. - Didn't you change not only because of the money, but because you were doing well? ▲ I tried it and I got to 900 on ladder. The max then was 1100, and after seeing my Korean rank, I got confident and decided to switch. - Why did you join oGs? ▲ I don't think the team is that important, but Bright invited me. Since oGs players are good, I joined with the mindset to learn. - You must have a strong determination since you gave up progaming for this. ▲ Since I joined oGs, I will get to at least Ro4 to hold up the name of the clan. I want to earn a lot of money for my mother. - Who do you want to avoid the most? ▲ Of course, Tester. Also my teammates. Outside of my team, I want to avoid Jung Min Soo(ID?). - You switched unexpectedly. A word to your fans? ▲ The comments on the article about my switch had 50:50 good and bad replies (laughs). I want to thank those who supported me, and I don't regret playing SC1 professionally, since I learned a lot from being with the team. I hope the SC2 fans cheer me on from now on. + Show Spoiler [Original Article] +
- 64강에 진출한 소감은
▲ 하루 전에 oGs 들어가 숙소에서 특훈을 했는데, 잘 된 것 같아 기쁘다. 방금 프로토스전만 세 판 했는데 굉장히 힘들었다.
- 프로토스전이 힘들었던 특별한 이유가 있나
▲ 프프전은 거의 실력 싸움 보다는 올인성이 강한 것 같다. 그래서 난 64강에 올라가면 저그와 만나고 싶다. 저그는 한 끼 식사일 뿐이다(웃음).
- 스타2로의 전향을 결심 하게 된 계기가 있다면
▲ 그냥 스타2가 처음 나왔을 때는 반응이 시큰둥 했는데 GSL 이야기를 접하고 스타2를 시작하게 됐다. 사실 많이 고민을 했다. 연봉 계약 때 적절한 연봉으로 협상이 이뤄지지 않았는데, GSL 32강 안에만 들면 연봉만큼 상금을 받을 수 있어서 스타2로 전향하게 됐다.
- 연봉 문제도 있겠지만, 실력이 따라줘서 전향을 결심한 것 아닌가
▲ 플레이를 해봤는데 래더 900까지 점수가 올랐다. 당시 맥시멈이 1100 이었는데 나의 국내 랭킹이 점점 높아지는 것을 보며 자신감이 생겼고, 전향해도 잘 할 수 있겠다 싶었다.
- oGs에 입단하게 된 이유는 무엇인가
▲ 팀에 들어가는 것은 크게 중요하다고 생각하지 않았는데, (김)성곤이 형과 스타2 하다가 친해졌고 진지하게 ‘올 생각 없냐’고 물으셨다. oGs 팀원들이 모두 잘 해서 배우기도 할 겸 들어가게 됐다.
- 프로게이머를 포기하고 전향을 한 만큼 각오가 남다를 것 같다
▲ 일단 oGs에 들어갔으니까 명문팀의 이름을 더럽히지 않게 최소 4강까지는 갈 것이다. 그리고 솔직히 내 자신을 위해서 열심히 한 것도 있는데, 돈을 많이 벌어서 어머니께 효도하고 싶은 생각이 더 크다.
- 본선에서 피하고 싶은 선수가 있나
▲ 제일 피하고 싶은건 역시 서기수 선수다. 그리고 같은 팀원들은 다 피하고 싶다. 우리 팀이 아닌 선수 중에서는 정민수 선수만 피하면 될 것 같다.
- 갑작스레 전향을 결정했는데, 팬들에게도 한 마디 한다면
▲ 전향 기사 밑에 달린 댓글을 보니까 욕하는 분도 있고 잘했다는 분도 있고 딱 5:5로 나뉘더라(웃음). 격려해주신 분들께 감사드리고, 스타1에서는 많은 활약을 못 했지만 팀 활동을 하며 여러가지 연습은 많이 된 것 같아서 후회 하지 않는다. 이제는 스타2 팬 분들이 많이 응원해주시면 좋겠다.

RainbOw aka HopeTorture: "I want to aim for the first place"![[image loading]](http://www.teamliquid.net/staff/l10f/translations/Rainbowgslqual1.jpg) - 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.

gom said they weren't going to stream the qualifiers, live at least.
consider they have to go through over 2000 players down to 64 in two days.

I am also having trouble navigating through GOMTV website, if anyone could please post a direct link to a stream or equivalent, I would be grealy thankful. : )

There are no stream links at this time. This event is an Offline Qualifier with a ton of players and games and therefore it is unlikely that GOM will be streaming it in any capacity.
Gonna have to wait and see. More then enough TL community people can quit easily navigate Korean sites, so have faith.

Oh well as long as we get the results and maybe a little more information later on it will be fine. We will see them in the later stages!
This is huge!! Good luck guys!!!

aww no streams? thats too bad... earliest to watch some streams would be in 3 days when artosis and tasteless start casting it, right?

Well, just going to readthe new MSLnews. When I read it, I hope there is a gom link
|
wow so low chance of makeing it to top 64 even if your good when there are so many players.
Do they play in groups or what?

Makes no sense to start making streams and casts unless its a sneak peak or promo for what is to come.

Does anyone know what time IdrA plays?
everyone's twitter is severely lacking in information

wow this is happening at the same time as MLG and later MSL final? XD
no stream T_T hope the liquid guys make it so we can see them play
|
gl TL & oGs players

|
|
This is pretty much what Twitter was made for. Hope we can get some insider updates!
|
i really hope they're going to select a few games from the qualifiers to stream them :O
|
So TLO is in an hour? I'm curious to know about IdrA as well, and I'm guessing Artosis and Tasteless won't try to qualify since they're casting.
|
Wow.. 2000 players to 64? You have to be within the top 1% to qualify =/
Liquid hwaiting!

Nope, Artosis is clearly listed in the brackets, #49 here.
Other obvious non-koreans:
TorcH, #49, and Jinro, #04 here
TLO #41 here

Awesome!
Looks like A1 is going on RIGHT NOW. Idra beaten 1 opponent thus far.

Trever Housten is nr 49 in D2.
Who's that?O_O

I wish they covered it like the msl/osl quals. Tons of switching between the high profile games. With constant casting
|
|
|
Is it top 2 or 4 advance?
edit: answered my own question. 8groups and league has a ro64 so top 8
|
IdrA!!! Totally gonna kill this. He's gonna be set for life after next year's GSL. Lolol. Can't wait for next week when English casting starts happening!
|
I guess a lot of people are missing from offline qualifiers. If I understand correctly from brackets.

this is only saturday's groups though. so probably top 2/4 depending on how many groups play on sunday.

It's good the foreigners are all in different groups so they won't eliminate each other.

if tomorrow has the same amount of groups, then it should be top 4 from each group qualifying
which begs the question if they're even going to play past the ro4 in the groups. If they stop, then we'll know for certain. If they don't, then we have no idea because they might just play it out for seeding purposes.
idra fighting~

o ok I thought D was tomorrow so I guess 16 groups top 4 advance. Sounds more reasonable

Are they playing bo5, bo3 or just bo1?

Looking forward to this coverage! Good luck all non-Koreans!

According to Fomos, Top 4 advance.

I'm a bit confused. Shouldn't there be about 100 foreigners? So far there seem to be 5. Am I missing 20 more groups or is one group very clustered?

The vast majority of those are probably chinese.

I'm guessing they'll begin casting at the round of 64. I was just extrapolating that if one of them made it that far in the tournament it would be hard to cast  . But it looks like at least Artosis is registered to compete.

What are the Koreans saying in the comments in response to the pictures of foreigners?

85k for first place? Dam, is that the biggest prize pool thus far?

can someone brief me on how the tournament system works again?

looks like they might meet in the finals of that qualifying division. anyone know how many players progress from each division?

it's the round of 16 for that division. still has to win this plus one more match to advance iirc.
|
4 person per each division
A to D : Saturday
E to H : Sunday
|
One question for anybody who knows though, how do the preliminaries work before there are 64 players? Not that it's particularly important from a spectators point of a view but I'm just curious. I'm having a hard time imagining a good system that would fairly weed out all of the lesser players from 2000 people, leaving only 64.
And damn, this tournament is probably going to be amazingly epic! 8D
|
I'd give my left nut to be there. Shame there is no casting for this portion. Personally... I would just love to see some Korean play. Everything from bad to great.

yes idra won his first game
|
From the google translate there are 8 Saturday brackets. With 8 Sunday brackets and 4 ppl advancing per bracket, that is 8x8 = 64 qualfiiers. Each bracket is 64 players = ~1000 players. I also thought there would be >2000 players (no restrictions to play right?), but 1k seems close enough to me.
Man this Idra round 3 game is taking forever. I hope that means they are playing some long macro games.
Edit: how are people telling that Idra is up 1-0?
--- Figured it out. The "1/2A--" means win and "AED--" means lose =/.
|
Looks like IdrA's up 1-0 in his Ro16 match.
|
Nice, Idra has gotten past 2 people so far.
Is there an english bracket anywhere?

IdrA won

The other groups haven't started yet I think, so there are no working brackets. No idea what "사용중인 대진표가 아닙니다." means.
Idra advancing to the Ro8 with another 2-0 ^^
|
IDRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Rooting for the Foreigners :D
|
Go Idra!! Can't wait for the RO64 so we can get some commentary.
|
One more win Idra ... ONE MORE~
|
|
|
Anyone know who #7 in group A is? Apparently that's who Idra has to play next to qualify.
|
Go go Idra!! Just two more!!
|
The other brackets say "사용중인 대진표가 아닙니다." which means "Brackets are not being used" (google translate). But TLO should have played at 1pm so dunno if it's an error or not.
Btw how do you check if it's 1:0 or 2:0? Are those the symbols in brackets under the names?

gogo foreginers + oGs

Wait, is Artosis allowed to be a competitor in a tournament he's casting?
|
Probably just like every random terran out there. Idra has 400 more points than this guy. That's a pretty large gap
|
If the (½Â--) means a win the Idra's up 1-0

My understanding was that he would be doing commentary with tasteless, but not live, the live commentators would be korean and tasteless and artosis would re-do it in english for foreigners. that could be wrong though.

Yep, Idra up 1-0 currently, and Group B-1 bracket is up which means that TLO is starting to play about now.

Information of A-1 group
#1 김태환 = LiveFoever WR #51
#17 김상철 = OgsEnsnare WR #71

I never thought refreshing brackets would be this exciting. Go IdrA!

|
Ensnare vrs idra in the finals would be epic. even if it was just for seeding.
|
|
|
|
|
My bracket doesn't show idra as having made it to the final four yet, just slow updating Iguess?
|
I can't believe there is no live coverage. At least radio commentary from someone who is there? TLO's games are coming soon. Fingers crossed for all foreigners + Cool, Tester and all the other good Koreans. It would be very sad if some of the really great players get sniped prematurely.
|
Congrats to IdrA so far^^
Keep it up Mr. Great White hope :D

Dario Wunsch it says his name in western characters underneath the korean.

so actually it looks like idra needs one more win to be qualified. even though he's in the top 4 of A-1, there's another entire bracket in A-2. so he probably needs one more win to qualify.
|
TLO is currently up 1-0 if there's still anyone that isn't following the bracket
|
Dario
edit: whoops, too slow :p

|

so idras next opponent had TWO byes? wow.

Seriously going to break my f5 key. This is such an amazing day. MLG, MSL and this!

Top 4 of 8 Groups on 2 days would be 4 * 8 * 2 = 64 which would match for a Ro64. So that should be it if I'm not missing something.

TLO ADVANCES TEAMLIQUID HWAITING!

IdrA: "I'm honored to have a spot in the GSL"
- How do you feel about making it through with all wins?
▲ I'm happy I made it to the tournament with defeating everyone.
- You've been doing well in StarCraft II tournaments
▲ I got 2nd in IEM in Germany, and before that I won the King of Kings End of Beta Tournament.
- You're still CJ player as far as I know, did you have any problems entering the league?
▲ I was in CJ, but I left already. My contract ends the 31st of this month, and since it's almost over, I joined GSL.
- Have you decided a new team to join?
▲ I want to join a team not associated with KeSPA. I don't have a specific team yet.
- You were Terran in SC1, why did you switch to Zerg?
▲ I thought about changing race in SC1 since Terran didn't fit me, and I felt that Zerg fit my style better than Protoss. That's why I chose Zerg.
- What do you think is attractive about the Zerg race?
▲ I like playing games having good economy and large armies, and I think Zerg fits that description the best.
- What do you think about the balance?
▲ It's difficult to defend early rushes as Zerg, but I think the balance is getting better after every patch.
- Where are you living in Korea?
▲ I'm still in CJ house, but I'm leaving soon. I think I'll stay with a friend until I find a team.
- Your goals and determination for this GSL
▲ I hope the Korean fans enjoy my games. I'm honored to have a spot in the GSL, and I think it's going to be fun, so look forward to it.
+ Show Spoiler [Original Article] +- 전승으로 예선을 통과한 소감은
▲ 모두 이기고 본선에 오르게 돼서 기쁘다.
- 일찍이 스타크래프트2 대회에 참가해 좋은 성적을 거두고 있는데
▲ 얼마 전 독일에서 열린 IEM에서는 2등을 차지했고, 그 전에는 팀리퀴드 대회나 베타 테스트 당시 해외 마지막 대회였던 킹 오브 킹에서도 우승을 했었다.
- 아직 CJ 선수인걸로 아는데, 대회 참가에는 문제가 없었나
▲ 나는 CJ 선수였지만, 이미 팀에 남아 있지 않다. 계약 기간은 이번 달 31일까지 남아 있는데, 막바지라 참여하게 됐다.
- 새롭게 합류할 팀은 정했는지
▲ KeSPA와 관련되지 않은 팀들로 생각 중이다. 아직 정확히 가겠다고 계획된 팀은 없다.
- 스타1 당시 테란이었는데, 저그로 종족을 바꾼 이유가 있나
▲ 스타1 당시에도 테란이 잘 안 맞는 것 같아서 종족을 바꿀 생각이었는데, 프로토스로도 해봤지만 저그가 더 체질에 맞는 것 같았다. 그래서 저그를 선택했다.
- 저그라는 종족의 매력이 뭐라고 생각하는지
▲ 저그만의 확장력과 풍부한 자원을 이용한 물량 게임을 좋아하고, 그런 것에 있어서 저그가 가장 알맞은 것 같았다.
- 종족 간 밸런스에 대해서는 어떻게 생각하나
▲ 아무래도 저그는 초반 러시를 수비하기 어려운 종족이라 헤매는 경향이 있었는데, 패치를 통해서 한 걸음씩 더 완벽한 밸런스에 다가서고 있는 것 같다고 생각된다.
- 요즘 국내에서의 생활은 어디서 하고 있나
▲ 아직은 CJ 숙소에 있지만 곧 나올 것이다. 다른 팀에 들어가기 전까지는 친구와 지낼 것 같다.
- 이번 GSL에 임하는 목표와 각오는
▲ 한국 팬들이 내 경기를 즐겨주면 좋겠다. GSL에서 한 자리를 차지하게 돼서 영광이고, 굉장히 재미있을 것 같으니까 팬 분들도 기대 많이 해주시면 좋겠다.

I wonder if he doesn't like KeSPA because of Nada incident

KeSPA.... Do even foreigners look down on them.. He said outright that he wanted to join a team unrelated to KeSPA.. I wonder the only solution for KeSPA will be disbanding..
이드라도 올라갔으니까 TLO만 올라가면 되겠네...그리고 팀은 oGs 나 Prime들어가는게 가장좋을것 같다
IdrA made it, now TLO needs to make it. oGs or Prime should be the best team to join.

Congratulations.. I hope we see a lot of foreigners in SC2. Since SC1 is all Koreans, it's no fun. Since I heard Grrr.. is playing SC2, I hope he does well.
근데 이드라 개매너잖어 래더에서 지가지면 말 엄청 많어 무슨 테란사기다 저그가 후져서 그런거다 니가 운이 좋다 등등 테란사기는 맞는데 운이좋다고 하면 이긴애는 기분좋냐 ㅡㅡ
But Idra has dog manner. If he loses in ladder, he talks so much. Imba Terran, Zerg sucks, you got lucky etc. It's true Terran is imba but when you say "you got lucky" do you think the winner feels good?
그렉필즈 저그의 위엄을 보여줘!!
IdrA, show the power of Zerg!

Awesome. Thank you, l10

TLO is in B-1 not B-2.
He's fine, the biggest opposition I see facing him is PhoeNix.WeRRa, and I don't think he's that great.

Many many thanks for the interview l10f :D Woohoo so idra qualifies, next up, TLO!! woohoo!

Oh wow Idra leaving CJ eh guess that's not too much of a surprise as I doubt they would want to keep him now that he's playing sc2. Well should be interesting in what team he joins next :D

There aren't too many teams. Prime, oGs, Werra, and Zenith really. I'd guess oGs.

Ah, yes. good call.

IdrA should join TL then all my favorite players would be on one team and I can die a happy man.

It's a surprise to me, since they've paid him for so long while having him practice nothing but SC2 - I assumed CJ wanted to get their name into SC2 right from the start, or else why would they have gone through the trouble of keeping idra around?

Shouldn't Idra have the easiest time of all the current SC2 players finding a sponsored team? He's undoubtedly practiced more than anyone else in the world, and is probably one of the top 5 players at least at the moment.

This is very curious indeed. Is Idra leaving CJ because they don't want him anymore, or is he leaving because he wants to join a team with more foreigners? Because CJ most certainly still has an interest in creating an SC2 team since they own GOM and have the rights to SC2 broadcasts.

He said that his contract was ending so I'd assume they were obligated to pay him until it ran out.

From the sound of it, they had a contract with him up until the end of this month. Most likely the cost of letting him go early was around the same as the cost of just putting him up and letting him play SC2 until it expired. Plus, it never hurts to stick your toes in the water to see if it's nice; IdrA could have been CJ's toes for SC2 and they've decided they want to wait a little longer to dive in.
(Edit: Beaten! Snap!)

There is a lot going on behind the scenes that is hard to speculate in the kespa vs gom/blizzard situation. If Kespa is going to completely sit out of sc2 then Idra has no reason to be on the CJ team and they have no reason to keep him. Obviously, all we can do is speculate but I'd say seeing as Idra is leaving CJ they wont be jumping to sc2 for a bit, if at all.

I'm pretty sure Idra doesn't get paid by CJ. Just housing and food.

IdrA leaving CJ Entus D:
Well, it's not really a big deal since every team will want him. TL oGs please.

KeSPA.... Do even foreigners look down on them.. He said outright that he wanted to join a team unrelated to KeSPA.. I wonder the only solution for KeSPA will be disbanding..

it sounds like he wants to leave cj because of kespa, and doesn't want to deal with drama if kespa dies
plus players lose many of their rights when under a kespa team
edit: beat by netizens

He definitely shouldn't have too hard of a time finding a team, but to say he's "undoubtedly" practiced more than anyone else is a very bold statement. Check has well over a thousand ladder games played. It's impossible to tell exactly how many games anyone has played since you can't account for custom games, but it's not important. My point is that there are definitely people out there (mostly koreans) practicing as hard as IdrA is.
oGs seems like the most likely destination for him, given their cooperation with foreigners and English-speaking manager. I doubt he'd be invited to join Team Liquid, since I believe they generally only invite well mannered players, but I could be wrong.

IdrA is fucking raping. I hope he finds a good team to join. I think he would fit well with oGs or Prime...so hopefully they will take him.

It must be so confusing if you were a Korean getting BM'd (or dog manner'd) in English. If I were a Korean Terran using Reapers, I would just reply:
"that is many reaper, yes?"

More then likely he is leaving so he can play Sc2 seeing as Kespa contracted progamers are not allowed to play sc2.

Where do you come at this from lol, oGs stands for Old Generation Starcrafters, which if you look at the lineup, makes sense. Not to say that IdrA wouldn't be a good addition to the team but that just straight up doesn't fit the bill. I doubt that he'll join a Korean team, probably will join a foreign progaming organization that will pay him well enough for him to stay in Korea, since he'll want to stay in the GSL scene as long as he can. As for TLO and Jinro, they're not on oGs, they're practicing wiht the team, they are on Team Liquid.

I've been wondering why Idra ditched the CJ Jersey. Hopefully we'll see a bidding war for him. After 2 years on a B-Team this nerd deserves to get paid!

oGsEnsnare: "I'm happy I made it through the qualifiers"
- How do you feel about making it to Ro64?
▲ I was nervous since it was a big tournament, and I think I got in pretty easily.
- You play Terran, which is thought to be better in terms of balance compared to the other races.
▲ I think it's good right now, but since I heard that there will be a patch soon, I'll need to go back to the beginning and practice hard. I don't think things until now will matter anymore, and I don't think Terran will get stronger in the future. It's not good for me (laughs).
- Why did you join oGs?
▲ I beat TheWinD hyung in the brain box tournament, and he recommende me to the team. I went as soon as I got invited (laughs). I'm living with him in the team house.
- You're the first from your team to advance.
▲ The rest of the players will definitely make it, so I'll need to start getting nervous. I think I'll meet them in the main tournament.
- Your determination for GSL?
▲ You ask me this every time, and I don't have much to say. I'll just try my best. Of course my goal is 1st place, but I'm happy I got through the qualifiers.
+ Show Spoiler [Original Article] +
- 64강 본선에 진출한 소감은
▲ 대회라 긴장하고 왔는데, 준비한 것에 비해 부전승도 하고 쉽게 올라간 것 같다.
- 밸런스에서 우위에 서 있다는 평가의 ‘테란’으로 플레이 중인데
▲ 지금이 딱 좋은 것 같은데, 곧 패치가 된다는 소리를 들으니까 처음으로 다시 돌아가서 열심히 해야 할 것 같다. 이제까지 한 것은 의미 없는 것 같고, 앞으로 테란이 더 좋아질 일은 없는 것 같다. 큰일났다(웃음).
- oGs 소속으로 활동하게 된 계기가 있나
▲ 예전에 브레인 박스 대회에서 (박)상익이 형을 이긴 적이 있는데, 그 뒤로 상익이 형이 추천을 해주셨고 게임을 하다 보니까 팀에서 나를 불러주셨다. 그래서 바로 달려갔다(웃음). 숙소에서도 함께 생활하고 있다.
- 팀에서 가장 먼저 본선에 진출했는데
▲ 남은 형들은 무조건 올라오실 거니까 이제 나도 긴장을 해야 할 것 같다. 본선에서 만나게 될 것 같다.
- GSL에 임하는 각오는
▲ 각오를 매번 물어보시는데 진짜 특별히 할 말 없고, 그냥 열심히 하겠다는 생각 밖에 없다. 당연히 우승이라는 목표를 갖고 나오긴 했지만, 일단은 예선을 통과해 마음이 편하다.

Last qualifier from A-2 is someone with ID "쏘자" name 박웅진 Korean rank 17, from WeRRA.
|
Does Idra look really sickly to anyone else?
I feel like he could be on a poster for some run for sick kids.
|
The thought of IdrA joining Liquid sounds cool, but personally, I think it'll be good for the SC2 scene if he joins a different one. Right now, there are no team leagues, but it will happen eventually. I think it's best to have great players on different teams instead of a stacked one. That's just me though.

Another TLO 2-0! I am F5 so much =/
Also nice picture. Artosis looks focused.

yea that might have been a bad example haha. I dunno how TL feels about him I just know hes been banned quite a bit. I just know liquid has been a pretty manner clan all through bw so he would have to really knock the rage off Although i doubt idra would even want to be in liquid lol

Can someone with title go make an IdrA free agent thread so this one doesn't continue to derail.

Practicing for his career as a model as a backup plan probably. I hope he does well, though I'm a bit confused on the rules of him playing and casting the same tournament

According to the bracket, Iron just made it from B-1

I just got in, is there a stream up?

would it be cool if idrA join oGs or some other top korean top?? maybe one day he can be training partners with jaedong in SC2 but we can dream. I really don't see him in team liquid since he lives in korea.

쏘자 is not Cella.
Cella did play a bunch of games with him though on his stream a few days ago.
|
IrOn already qualified from group B2, I guess. He had to really speedrun his opponents.
쏘자 is a clanmate of Cella, along with justfake (the mysterious "Ozil" that Blizzard invited into its "progamer balance discussion".
|
If all the forgieners do well and make it into the GSL. I hope it encourages more forgien teams and players to go over and try. Seems like we can play with the koreans in sc2 for the moment.

anyone know who 서철웅 is? he beat phoenix in the previous round 2-0.

Anyone else notice how no one in the bottom 1/8th of TLO's group showed up?
nvm, i guess they've just changed the way they deal with no-shows. lucky for the guys near the bottom.

Idra doin work! Hopefully, the rest of TL makes it through as unscathed as possible.
Interesting that Idra is a free agent, had no idea! Hopefully gets picked up by someone appropriate. Definitely the one of the best players in the world as it stands.

But Idra has dog manner. If he loses in ladder, he talks so much. Imba Terran, Zerg sucks, you got lucky etc. It's true Terran is imba but when you say "you got lucky" do you think the winner feels good?
Ha ha. Never change Idra!

So that's like the first big korean SC2 tourney is it ? I hope there will be quite a lot of oldschool SC1 players that will make the switch. Best of luck to TLO and Idra ! I'll be following.

miso: I'm confident in ZvT
- How do you feel about making it to Ro64?
▲ Ro64 was my goal and I'm happy I made it. I'm confident in my ZvT, so I hope I meet a Terran player next game.
- You've never been a professional gamer, but you're one of the top Zerg players.
▲ People say Zerg is worse than other races balance wise, but I think the balance is good in the higher levels. I think Zerg is just difficult for beginners. ZvP is a tough matchup for me.
- Did you have trouble today?
▲ The last game was a little difficult, but the rest were worse than the players I practiced with. I think I had good luck in the brackets. No one was a former progamer.
- You must look forward to the new patch.
▲ I'm excited, but I heard the patch is coming after GSL. I think the 5 second increase in Zealot making time was a very good idea (laughs).
- I heard you're still a student, how will you prepare for GSL?
▲ I'm in Zenith clan, and unlike oGs and Prime, Zenith is an amateur clan. We devise our own strategy, and I think I made it thanks to my clanmates. I think I can get farther if I continue practicing with them.
- Your ID is still "miso"
▲ I'll use my Zenith clan name once the name change comes around. It was because I wasn't in Zenith when I made the account.
- Your determination for the GSL?
▲ I will as much as I can and get to Ro16 to show the power of the Zenith clan.

- 64강 본선에 오르게 된 소감은
▲ 목표가 64강 이었는데 오르게 돼서 일단 다행이라고 생각한다. 테란전이 자신 있는 편이라서 다음 경기에서도 테란을 만나면 좋겠다.
- 프로로 활동한 경력이 없지만, 저그 상위 랭커로 활약 중이다
▲ 저그가 밸런스 상으로 많이 안 좋다고 하는데, 상위권에서는 어느 정도 밸런스가 맞는 것 같다고 생각한다. 다만 종족 자체가 조금 초보의 벽이 높아서 안 좋다는 이야기가 많은 것 같다. 밸런스를 떠나서 개인적으로는 프로토스전이 어렵다.
- 오늘 경기 중 고비는 없었나
▲ 마지막 경기만 조금 어려웠고, 나머지는 일반 연습 게임 했던 선수들 보다는 다소 쉬웠던 것 같다. 다행히 대진운은 상당히 좋았다. 프로게이머 출신의 선수들은 없었다.
- 조만간 패치가 진행될 예정이라 기대가 클 것 같다
▲ 기대를 많이 갖고 있다. 그런데 GSL이 끝나고 나서 패치를 한다고 들어서 그 점은 아쉽다. 광전사 생산이 5초 늘어난 것은 아주 개념이라고 생각한다(웃음).
- 아직 학생이라고 했는데, 준비는 어떻게 할 생각인지
▲ 내가 제니스 클랜에 소속 돼 있는데 제니스는 oGs, Prime 같은 팀들과는 다르게 아마추어 클랜이다. 그래도 우리 나름대로 전략 같은 것도 많이 연구하고 있는데, 팀원들이 잘 도와줘서 올라온 것 같다. 앞으로도 팀원들과 연습하면 더 높이 올라갈 수 있을 것 같다.
- 아직 아이디는 ‘miso’를 사용 중인데
▲ 아이디 변경 기간에 제니스 클랜 이름을 넣을 예정이다. 초창기 멤버가 아니라서 그렇다.
- GSL에 임하는 각오 한 마디
▲ 무조건 많이 이기고 16강까지 올라 제니스의 위상을 높이겠다.

If Artosis is casting the GSL with Tasteless, what happens when he qualifies for the ro64? Is he just going to like.. cast every other game but then not be there to cast when he's playing?

someone said the english casts won't be done live, but instead from replays
edit: not that that fully answers your question

Casting his own games would be really weird.
Everything would have an awkward feel to it.

They announced it on twitter, there's a thread for it somewhere.
@ the other person, I know that he wouldn't be casting his own games. :p But I was just wondering if it would just be a weird thing where he'd cast everything else when he wasn't playing, or if he would just step out entirely and have somebody else cast.

If by weird you mean completely awesome, as well as fair and unbiased.

GOGO TLO. It apparently wasn't a worrisome path, but it's great for him to qualify! It was sort of tense, you know.

Iron aka JangMinChul : "I want to earn money for my mother"
- How do you feel about making it to Ro64?
▲ I went to oGs house yesterday to practice, and I think it helped. I just played 3 PvP matches, and it was tough.
- Why is PvP tough?
▲ I think PvP is more all-in than skill. I want to play a Zerg in Ro64. Zerg is just a meal to me (laughs).
- What made you switch to SC2?
▲ I didn't care about SC2 when it first came out, but I started after hearing about GSL. I thought about it a lot. I didn't get what I wanted in the contract, and since I can earn just as much if I make Ro32 in GSL, I decided to play SC2.
- Didn't you change not only because of the money, but because you were doing well?
▲ I tried it and I got to 900 on ladder. The max then was 1100, and after seeing my Korean rank, I got confident and decided to switch.
- Why did you join oGs?
▲ I don't think the team is that important, but Bright invited me. Since oGs players are good, I joined with the mindset to learn.
- You must have a strong determination since you gave up progaming for this.
▲ Since I joined oGs, I will get to at least Ro4 to hold up the name of the clan. I want to earn a lot of money for my mother.
- Who do you want to avoid the most?
▲ Of course, Tester. Also my teammates. Outside of my team, I want to avoid Jung Min Soo(ID?).
- You switched unexpectedly. A word to your fans?
▲ The comments on the article about my switch had 50:50 good and bad replies (laughs). I want to thank those who supported me, and I don't regret playing SC1 professionally, since I learned a lot from being with the team. I hope the SC2 fans cheer me on from now on.
+ Show Spoiler [Original Article] +
- 64강에 진출한 소감은
▲ 하루 전에 oGs 들어가 숙소에서 특훈을 했는데, 잘 된 것 같아 기쁘다. 방금 프로토스전만 세 판 했는데 굉장히 힘들었다.
- 프로토스전이 힘들었던 특별한 이유가 있나
▲ 프프전은 거의 실력 싸움 보다는 올인성이 강한 것 같다. 그래서 난 64강에 올라가면 저그와 만나고 싶다. 저그는 한 끼 식사일 뿐이다(웃음).
- 스타2로의 전향을 결심 하게 된 계기가 있다면
▲ 그냥 스타2가 처음 나왔을 때는 반응이 시큰둥 했는데 GSL 이야기를 접하고 스타2를 시작하게 됐다. 사실 많이 고민을 했다. 연봉 계약 때 적절한 연봉으로 협상이 이뤄지지 않았는데, GSL 32강 안에만 들면 연봉만큼 상금을 받을 수 있어서 스타2로 전향하게 됐다.
- 연봉 문제도 있겠지만, 실력이 따라줘서 전향을 결심한 것 아닌가
▲ 플레이를 해봤는데 래더 900까지 점수가 올랐다. 당시 맥시멈이 1100 이었는데 나의 국내 랭킹이 점점 높아지는 것을 보며 자신감이 생겼고, 전향해도 잘 할 수 있겠다 싶었다.
- oGs에 입단하게 된 이유는 무엇인가
▲ 팀에 들어가는 것은 크게 중요하다고 생각하지 않았는데, (김)성곤이 형과 스타2 하다가 친해졌고 진지하게 ‘올 생각 없냐’고 물으셨다. oGs 팀원들이 모두 잘 해서 배우기도 할 겸 들어가게 됐다.
- 프로게이머를 포기하고 전향을 한 만큼 각오가 남다를 것 같다
▲ 일단 oGs에 들어갔으니까 명문팀의 이름을 더럽히지 않게 최소 4강까지는 갈 것이다. 그리고 솔직히 내 자신을 위해서 열심히 한 것도 있는데, 돈을 많이 벌어서 어머니께 효도하고 싶은 생각이 더 크다.
- 본선에서 피하고 싶은 선수가 있나
▲ 제일 피하고 싶은건 역시 서기수 선수다. 그리고 같은 팀원들은 다 피하고 싶다. 우리 팀이 아닌 선수 중에서는 정민수 선수만 피하면 될 것 같다.
- 갑작스레 전향을 결정했는데, 팬들에게도 한 마디 한다면
▲ 전향 기사 밑에 달린 댓글을 보니까 욕하는 분도 있고 잘했다는 분도 있고 딱 5:5로 나뉘더라(웃음). 격려해주신 분들께 감사드리고, 스타1에서는 많은 활약을 못 했지만 팀 활동을 하며 여러가지 연습은 많이 된 것 같아서 후회 하지 않는다. 이제는 스타2 팬 분들이 많이 응원해주시면 좋겠다.

5 protoss got in ro64... hurray!
hopefully no TvT at the end ya? xD

Looks like Artosis got a by for his second opponent!

Korea musn't be that good (invested) at SC2 if Idra and TLO qualified so easily.
Not to detract from Idra and TLO of course, but I expected more from korea. More foreigner smashing.

Wow there are a LOT of byes in Artosis' bracket. Hopefully that means lower opposition quality.
Man, there are a lot less really strong players than I thought there'd be. But oh well, better for the foreigners.

Been through this whole thread, but haven't seen any mention of him. I don't really keep up with StarCraft 2 happening too much, but is Sangho in this tourney?

What exactly, in the 1 month SC2 has been out, did you think would magically make Koreans better

IdrA and TLO are definitely "top 64" players. It's true that they didn't need to fight any really big names to qualify, though.

even thou koreans play ladder alot... id say the foreigners has the advantage tournament wise... they're more experience as to say... not much sc2 tournaments in korea... but in eu/us there's almost tour's everyday...
aswell as the fact that most progamers from BW didn't really transferred to sc2... cuz of KeSPA
|
TLO has qualified?? Now the rest of Team Liquid needs to also!
|
:'( TLO interviewww jajajaja
awesome awesome Go TL / Idra ! Congratulations! see ya on TV :D

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

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

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.

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.

is there a english bracket somewhere were we can see all the koreans AND foreigners that particapate ?

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.

so that Nettang guy in A1 is ReX.ZanDarke. Funny thats hes still wearing that wc3 clan tag (ReX)
|

Whoa, I just realized--these guys are all talking about playing against *former* progamers, and about oGs being a *clan* rather than a *team*.
IntoTheRainbow says he's done with progaming, he's just competing in SC2 for fun, since he has a real job. To the Koreans, SC2 is not even a professional progaming event, like brood war; it's just a fun little competition. It's not on the same level. Real progamers play BW; amateurs play SC2.
Hope that changes.
|
Just looking at all the no shows for THE BIGGEST SC2 TOURNAMENT TO DATE in Korea, and some of the interviews with Koreans that have advanced tells me Korea really isn't all that excited about SC2 like the rest of the world is.
I really hope SC2 takes off in Korea, but I'm afraid it won't be anytime soon. At least it gives foreigners more of a chance at doing well, for the time being.
Here's another TLO pic for all the fanboys/girls out there

I'd much rather SC2 take off in the whole world. Korea was BW, there is no reason SC2 needs to limited to a tiny corner of the globe.

Artosis with third win !!!

Hope that changes. This shows Koreans have some issues with adaptation, not much more. Because, if I'm not mistaken, GSL has bigger prize pool than any other progaming event so far. And payment is supposed to be what defines professional vs non-professional activity (sadly).

sorry, but how many players from the oGs / TLAF-Liquid` team entered, and how many qualified?
if anyone knows the answer, can you PM me please, thx

In respect to the no-shows: When you hold a tournament with 2000 sign-ups, there always be massive no shows, in any sport or game. In this case, these guys are no pro's, nearly everyone is a complete amateur. It's easier to sign up online for a small fee than find a way to actually be around in Seoul when you are a (probably) broke 18 year old kid.
And just because it needs to be said at least once each page: The game is one month old.

Did TLO actually make into the ro64 or what?

The brackets say he's in round 4. He got a first round bye and then beat 2 korean guys. So he should be playing his round 4 games now. If he wins those then he goes to the Round of 64 with Idra! :D

I don't think oGs or Prime pay salary(or if they do, it is tiny), so I am betting that IdrA is going to wait it out until actual pro-teams pop up with lucrative contracts.

Yeah it's strange but if you think about it, there are no contracts to be had in SC2 because there are no SC2 pro teams lol.

I seriously doubt he will join any of those, but who knows? Best choice would be EG if you need to choose from 'foreign' teams. But would love to see him in any Korean 'pro-team.'

I don't think Idra would join a dinky org. (for SC at least) like those. I am hoping he joins TL or one of the current SC1 proteams decide to offer him a contract for SC2 (wemade maybe?).

I'm not surprised that IdrA just owned every single player they threw at him, IdrA fighting!!

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES TLO !!!!
also interesting with IdrA leaving CJ(not that he won his game, that was ecspected )
also its no suprise there isn't much hype for GSL when Flash and Jaedong are playing now

no but 87K goes a long way to maintaining the minimum requirements of life. Rent, Food. utilities. Depending on how well he plays in other events he could just coast for a few years.

If IdrA would happen to win the whole GSL, I doubt he would retire when he's the best player in the world. More competitions = more money. Sponsors coming in next, putting IdrA in cheese commercials.
I can see it now:

no but it'll be enough to live on for at least 3 years for a single person in seoul and it'll put him on everyone's radar. im sure he'll have no trouble finding a pro team if he wins the GSL.

Assuming the bracket I have is being updated there's still a match from round 2 going on in Artosis' bracket. The winner would then have to play the 3rd round to even up with everybody waiting at the 4th round where Artosis needs 1 match win to advance? This is obviously only if the bracket I'm looking at is actually being updated.

Most of it's in Korean, but names are in English and for anyone that cares, ladder rank as well. http://www.playxp.com/sc2/news/view.php?article_id=2043020edit - Check.Prime has over 1000 ladder games wtf!
hahaha thanks for that link. i was able to find out that IdrA's korean ID is 'oooooooa'. he's amassed a lot of games.

Still waiting to be played I believe. The last pair is 1 round behind, so after it's over the winners for that bracket will be decided with the next set of games.

Nice to see Artosis made it through! That is so awesome. I was pretty sure Idra and TLO would make it. Now Jinro and Naz just gotta make it and it will be perfect!

Maybe Artosis should cast his games while playing them.

So whats the foreigner status as of now?

I'd definitely buy TL team shirts like the ones from the other pro teams if they get made. Good luck to Idra, TLO, and Artosis!

Torch 2-0's his opponent in the third round! If he wins this upcoming match he will advance to the Ro64.

I wonder if a lot of top foreigners will kick themselves for not making the arrangements to come out here if Torch qualifies. No offence to him but isn't he pretty weak even by NA standards

Torch now playing against the leader of WeRRa (dunno his ID) to determine who makes it to the Ro64.

Looking at the replies at PlayXP's coverage:
a1 expected: liveforever, rexzandarke, idra, ogsensnare
a2 expected: Bleach, ssoja, justfake, miso
b1 expected: nexfreesaga, shuko, phoenixwerra, jangminchul
b2 expected: ogsSirasoni, hopetorture, ogsThewind, checkPrime
Therefore, at least PhoenixWeRRa and oGsSirasoni didn't make it.
edit: In D2, the one who took out Jinro ("Yttria") has advanced to the Ro64.

funny people gave torch crap, such as "mediocre" terran.
1 match away from ro64

hm.. is Grrrr trying to qualify? As far as i remember he still lives in Korea... doesn't he?
|
werra is a team not a specific person, a good korean team at that, wouldn't be surprised if either result happens, but yeah I'm sure if a mid vt gaming player makes it, that'll have the big teams consider sending over some players. vT is an ok team but lets be honest here they're not exactly on root, eg, fnatic, etc.'s levels.
As for IrOn qualifying, aka Flounder, just goes to show how some of the lowest ranked BW pros can be boppin clowns in SC2, damn.
PS: Wow at Artosis qualifying.
PPS: Wow at post below me
PPPS: In Iron's interview he said he wanted to avoid teammates and Jung Min Soo, who is EunByul, ex-BW pro also http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/korean/players/1093_EunByuL

Torch wins 2-0 and makes it to the Ro64.
Also I should re-iterate Torch was pretty damn lucky to get a really weak bracket and two walk-overs, so this isn't really indicative of how other foreigners would have done.

It is not certain, but someone in PlayXP just said Torch made it to the Ro64.

Will Tasteless cast GSL alone since Artosis qualified?

Not to belittle his achievement, but qualifying for the ro64 only pays $260. That's still hardly enough money to justify flying to Korea. You'd have to make it to at least the ro16 to even think about turning a profit, and that's with a one-way ticket. Ro8 otherwise.
Of course, that's simply the financial aspect. It would still be an awesome life experience even without making a profit.

So Trever Houston is Torch??

Jinro doesn't have any chance of qualifing?

Focus just won the Korean WCG qualifyer for WC3, didn't even know he was playing SC2.

Nice to see Spunky qualified (though no real surprise), too bad Jinro didn't make it but he'll get another chance eventually!! I'm kinda missing White-Ra to attend, I think he might've been a great addition to the foreign roster.

Will Jinro be staying in Korea until next GSL??
|
Focus is the Focus who plays WC3.
He actually qualified WCG 2010 : WC3 as 1st place for korea though.
|
Probably going to witness many future Korean Starcraft 2 Jaedongs and Flashs coming out of the GSL.
|
Surprised to see FoCuS in top64 considering how much he musta been practising /playing WC3 lately.
Also surprised that Artosis made it!
|
TorcH is advancing? definately a big surprise there :O
|
Wait, isn't Artosis supposed to be casting the GSL? How is he playing?
|
CellaWerra! FIIIIGGHTTIIIIIIIING!!!!
Also, props to Artosis/TLO/and Idra.
|
Cella is such a favorite ;D
|
Cella is tl.net's darling :D
rooting for him aswell. but not quite as much as i'm rooting for TLO
|
Ohhh, so Cool is going to be in Day 2 - gl Cool! Also, + Show Spoiler +congrats to Artosis, and so so sorry for Jinro... but I still think he should stay with oGs and support the team(TL); plus, I'm sure there will be other opportunities there in Korea, apart from GSL.
|
No offences, but i'm not really surprised at everything :
- Artosis playing instead of casting is understandable... i mean 85k$ for 1st place is way better than casting for like maybe 1k$ ? Dunno really but pretty sure it's not much
- Foreigner doing god, i mean this game came out at the same time for EVERYONE. Why would we be behind ? Sure we may have played less games, but it's still in the "beta" and even in sc1 foreigners did really good until koreans stopped to micro way too much and focused on the macro.
Bleh whatever. Still keep up the good work ~

The question is will artosis still comentate the games he isn´t playing himself? I´m sure he´ll focus on practising but probably would watch thoose games anyway.

Well for once, it certainly isn't a bad thing to have one guy commentating who is actually competing at the highest level. So I hope he'll just commentate like planned, simply leaving Tasteless to cast by himself when he plays his matches.

And jinro!
You just got unlucky! But that's why its really importante to have 3 or 4 players playing for one team in this kind of big tournaments because is VERY likely that one of them gets into a dificult group and also very like that 1 of them gets into a easy group :D .
Awesome TL, Artosis and Torch.
Who did torch played against in the last 2 games ?

garimto is out nooo

Oh and against who did jinro lost ? he seems quite good :o

I'm pretty sure Torch is the guy with red hair in the last picture. He went to RPI and did CSL stuff with us last year.

are there any known korean players who got eliminated so far?
I think primehanibal got elimated by like 4 gate warpgate allin in 3 games... I guess he should have adapated a little bit better...
and also Jinro.. so sad but he will be there next time!

Perfect map pool for zerg :D
|
Didn't oGsSir@soni ( ToSky) get eliminated? But I'm guessing it was because he switched from Zerg to Terran for a long while, before switching back to Zerg recently. He also didn't have an easy bracket, needing to defeat a Prime clan member to advance.

Sorry if this has been answered already: will there be replays available for the qualifier?
|
who`s / where streaming those gamers of the gsl ?

Streams
There are no stream links at this time. This event is an Offline Qualifier with a ton of players and games and therefore it is unlikely that GOM will be streaming it in any capacity.

would have loved to see some of the games... damn to no stream =(

On TL website on the right column there is a "Upcoming events" section. Very useful.

Thanks, do you know if there is going to be a stream? It would kind of suck staying up to 4 oclock and theres no stream :-).

Apparently there is no stream available for this qual event, however gomTV will definitely cast the real tournament.
Anyways I'm sure the OP will update his post and keep us informed

Guess i am going to do that. Perhaps i am understand this event wrong.. is it an actual league which extends over a longer period of time like half a year or a tourney of like 3/4 days?

I think it might be like current starleague. You qualify for it through several matches and then its just a round of 64. If you lose, you're out (I am assuming). Like the other BW Starleagues, I am sure they will have another one when the current one ends
|
this is the first qualification of 3 in this year, for a big league next year (every tournament winner will go home with 85k)
i wonder what pricepool there will be for the real thing next year

Hoooooooooly S!
We're talking about US-Dollars, right?
|
Are there any brackets up for day 2?
|
+ Show Spoiler +really sad for jinro, but he is fucking sick and im sure this will motivate him even more. I expect some good things to come out of this disappointment

Thanks. Just read Tasteless/Artosis are going to cast - although dont know if today or not.
edit: holy crap 85k lol they know how to hype their stuff.

is there an interview with tlo???
|
It's very exciting to see Idra, TLO, and Artosis all qualify. A little sad Jinro didn't make it as well, but 3/4 for foreigners isn't bad. Speaking of which, is Nazgul the only foreigner left for day 2, or did no one else make the trip?
|
Shame about Jinro, but totally stoked to see Idra, TLO and Artosis cleared!

i think he came back a few weeks ago, he definalty was in cologne last weekend for IEM.
i am not completly sure, but i think i read Grrrr is going to the qualifier,a dn i think i read about one other foreigner being there
|
I doubt Grrrr would give up this opportunity, especially since he just joined OgS-TL
|
Grrrr, Smuft and myself playing today
as well as oGsInca and oGsGon
|
How long has Grrr been playing SC2?
Anyhow, good luck to Nazgul and all of the oGs guys competing!
|
Good luck to you all, specially you and Grrr. Great to see that TLO, IdrA and Artosis transferred, sad about Jinro tho, there's always next time tho.
