Boxer to Protoss. Or Zerg. Come on man, switch it up a bit. Terran are already strong, theres no need for you to make it unbeatable with your IMBA strategies =P.

If there were players that could be my rival or someone I have an issue with then I think the matches will turn out well. I think having a rival will be good for increasing my skills. It would be good if a lot of notable players were to get through (the qualifiers) so a lot of fans could enjoy GSL.
That's the spirit!

nice to see that he really plans his future in sc2. but that he thinks buffs for zerg arent justified either shows that he hasnt that deep of an understanding of the game yet... or that his understanding of the game is 6-12 months ahead of everybody else´s.

I have translated this interview into Chinese and posted on wfbrood.com.
I have stated that it was taken from here and I will bring the feedback from China back to here.

Q: Do you have a goal in mind?
A: First my goal was to qualify for Ro64, (now) I want to receive Code S and have safe placement for SC2 League.

What does Code S mean?

Code S do not have to go through the qualifiers, it means the player is seeded. After 3 Seasons of GSL, top players are seeded and will automatically advance to Ro64 for the next year.
More details in the announcement thread:

- After all three tournaments, the top 32 will become "Code S" players.
- 33rd-96th will become "Code A" players.
- Code S players and Code A players earn the right to participate in the GSL 2011.
- If a Code S player drops out before GSL 2011 starts, the top Code A player will fill the spot etc.

1. GSL (Ran in January, March, April, July and September) - Main League. 32 Code S players tournament and 64 Code A players tournament.
---
I don't know how they pick 32 from 3 tourneys. Perhaps they would take Ro8 + 8 more spots given in additional mini-tourney among Ro16 players, or they will count some kind of point system across the 3 tourneys.

I will only say one thing - Dropships with build in medics...They could as well named them Boxer instead of medivacs


I really hope to see him advancing to at least RO16, i have no doubt at his skill, but it is first tournament he is atending, so who knows whats possible, anyhow, as someone said, i'm sure there will be alot of high five in GOMTV offices after each mach Boxer advanced throu....

I mean, i know it is not big chance, but imagine finals with Boxer in it?And how many people would come to watch it...Doubt there is better way to push SC 2 as esport, correct me if i'm wrong

Thanks for the translation!

It would be so epic if he somehow joined Team Liquid. Not very likely though.

I thought this was a joke at first but after like a hundred comments by people hoping that Nada and Boxer will join TL, I have to say some people here are quite crazy.

In every interview he gives, Lim talks about making such an effort to please his fans with great games and great entertainment, and feeling bad about not being able to show us good results. You can tell it's genuine.

Damn, I love BoxeR.

Liquid'BoxeR....Nazgul, you know what ya gotta do!

on a more serious note, I can't wait to watch BoxeR, he's got such creativity and came up with lots of interesting micro intensive build in BW and i'm really pumped to see what he'll do in SC2

Boxer is a TLO fan.
Therefore Boxer will join oGs.

One can dream right?

If he's a TLO fan he should of course join Liquid...


Or.... he should join brother team of Liquid, oGs? There would be very little benefit for Boxer to join Team Liquid. Sure it would be amazing if he was sporting the tag, but realistically he needs Korean teammates to bounce ideas/strategies off of. The language barrier is too strong.

Thanks for the interview.
It would be amazing if Boxer would also join oGs TL but of course he is taking it cautiously too.

Isn't it fucking awesome to have Boxer again? Just the simple fact that he's active and playing.
Fucking love him.

I would not be surprised if he starts a team one day. Maybe after the whole Kespa thing is over and maybe if SC2 starts taking over completely he brings over SK Telecom?

Imho a GREAT marketing move Blizzard/GOM could make is to offer Boxer's streams/VODs FOR FREE!

That would attract swarms of fans like ants to spilled honey.

Can't wait to see him playing a serious match :D

BOXER FIGHTING Michael Jordan of E-Sport

Boxer won't be switching anything soon, I think Protoss is very marco -oriented, zerg doesn't have alot of options to be aggressive compare to terran. But at the rate of nerfs Blizzard is dishing out, I could be wrong.

I find it funny to hear Boxer say "I don't understand why Zerg is receiving a buff". I don't have an opinion on it either way, but it's a classic argument and counter argument of "Just because Cool is so good doesn't mean Zerg is balanced" vs "Zerg has the potential to win a tournament; they're fine".

imho protoss is very micro-oriented with a huge emphasis on surgeon-like precision with spellcasting. the shield mechanic also makes the race inherently rewarding good micro. zerg is the reactive macro race. terran is the outsmart your opponent race, the harassment race. the early aggression race, the race of dictating the game flow. imho sc2 T is perfectly suited for boxers style of play.
