None of the Koreans in WCS America are faceless... Have you seen the interviews between the games? They're all so funny. D:


Yeah, I really hope they archive all those, they were hilarious, like near Hotbid interview level awesome.


I'm probably in a minority here but I've never enjoyed the cringe factor of Hotbid's interviews.

I did love the interviews NASL did for WCS America though.

Watching stiff people try to be funny is always uncomfortable.

so has it been addressed why WCS EU has placement matches be loser of match1 vs loser of match 2 and 3 vs 4 and yet WCS AM has 1 vs 3 and 2 vs 4?

Does there need to be a reason? They run separate tournament structures. The final part of premier is very similar as there is only so many ways you can reasonably do single-elimination brackets, but I see no reason why either choice is wrong or why they should be the same. 1 vs 4 and 2 vs 3 would also be acceptable, as would a random draw.

Me too... and I hope they do ones with the people that lost in the Ro16 too. A Ryung interview would be amazing.

so Oz is not allowed to be confident ever again?

Just not vocally. He can have someone do statements for him that never guarantee victory.


Oz and aLive need to switch attitudes. Oz needs to be like, "I think I will lose," and aLive needs to be all "Terran never loses to Protoss!"

I think that would be the best for both players.

Or just merge into one supreme being who will win every tournament and just say, "I don't know who will win I want to show good games"


Oh god... I both do and do not want that, lol. I can't stand that response in interviews. ;P

Nah, I'm starting to like Hotbid's interviews. Ive only seen the more recent ones, experience and all may have changed the quality.

They did interviews for the entirety of the ro16. Everyone who played at the live setting.

TvT is not TvP.

Polt's Bio Control doesn't count for even half as much in this match up as it does in TvP.

Taeja is a dangerous opponent in TvT, I wouldn't consider any Terran in the world favored in the match up vs him. Not even Polt, not even Innovation. He's very strong in the match up.


True, but don't forget that Polt has traditionally been quite strong in TvT. Back in the 2011 GSL Super Tournament finals, Polt faced off against MMA at a time when MMA dominated in the matchup, and proceeded to 4-0 him with some excellent planned builds and engagement choices.

The most recent ones, at TI3, I found extremely enjoyable and interesting, very casual and not too awkward, but of course a lot has to do with the interviewee as well.

Why is Jim playing Macsed? Shouldn't he be playing aLive? The NA placement brackets are shaped differently from the EU ones.
