Also Zerg has won recently so I don't understand why Zerg is receiving a buff.


I think pro shouldn't think this way.


I totally agree... This kind of thinking doesnt fit wit pro.

He said, he will change race, deppending on patch... Currently, terran is for him most advantageous.
Long live and prosper!

boxer isnt as good as other terrans right now. i dont think he understands sc2 enough to be able to identify imbalance




What does this say about the legions of bronzers and even1k-1.5k diamond players (including most of the people on this forums). If boxer chose zerg and made a statement saying he was glad zerg was getting a buff, there would be no one saying "boxer isnt as good as other zergs right now. i dont think he understands sc2 enough to be able to identify imbalance"


not to mention boxer has played well over 1k games when adding up his two accounts and is in the top 100 in the world right now on one of those accounts and in the korean top 200 with both :/ or at least was on that last bit.

Such as a guy above who said "i dont think he understands sc2 enough to be able to identify imbalance" - while he's probably one of the top 100 players who understand SC2 best right now. Not to mention that he was one of the best, if not the best strategy innovator / thinker / inspirer in competitive gaming that are playing SC2.

Geez, I understand there are a lot of new comers on TL nowadays who are just eager to post their opinions about everything but can we have sign or something that says before you say something about certain topics/players, you must learn BW history a little first.

This and who exactly has been playing for a really long time? The first hands on for public was last years blizzcon and beta much later, not like anyone has a long history of experience with sc2.

"Blizzard has tendency to balance games for team games and games with multiple players (I think implying FFA)."

Gotta disagree with you there, Boxer.

I don't know about you, but I think a player who has rts experience and played 700+ games + custom games is able to identify imbalance. Or maybe you suggest that one has to play 1000+ games to understand the balance?

he's kinda right, zerg was just winning and they buff zerg

not QQ'ing whatsoever but blizzard is more interested in buffing zerg instead of balancing the game


Prolly why theres 17 terrans and 5 zerg qualified so far. Could all be probability, or it could be imbalances. Blizzard and most progamers seem to think zerg still needs some buffs, and we will see after that comes out if they where right or wrong.

Because there're 17000 T players and 5000 Z players participated? It'd be imba if there're 12 T and 12 Z qualify instead of 17 and 5.

Why do so many people act as if boxer's words are the law of the land? He isn't nessecarily right and the general consensus is that zerg is (slightly) underpowered.
nice.

Q : 테란에 만족하는지?
A : 매번 테란을 하향을 하고 있어서 약간 불만이 있다. 블리자드에서 사용자 수나 팀플레이에 맞춰서 패치하는 경향이 있다. 또 저그가 우승했는데 저그 상향은 약간 이해가 안가는 부분이다.

A: I am slightly displeased with the multiple Terran nerfs (including recent ones). Blizzard has tendency to balance games for team games and games with multiple players (I think implying FFA). Also Zerg has won recently so I don't understand why Zerg is receiving a buff.

Thanks for the translations, I used to do translations part time 3-4 years ago till work pretty much consumed my soul. Anywho, I'd like to make a slight correction to the bolded text above, it should read, IMO, as follows:

"Blizzard has a tendency to balance the game looking at the number of players for each race (사용자 수) or around team matches (팀플레이)."

Anyway let's give thanks to translations when they're done, it's a thankless job

The idea of TLO and Boxer practicing together at the OGs house is the stuff dreams are made of.

This makes a lot more sense. Not least of all because it's true.

ha thx, think I overlooked that, if you see the time, it was around 3 am Aus when I translated it. I was hazy by the end of the interview. EDITed, although it just says number of players (for each race) would be the implied part.
