oGs  MC, the world's best StarCraft 2 player and a two time GSL champion, sits down in the interview chair as the next subject for SK Gaming's 1on1 series. In part one (of three) MC looks back on the game he came from: Brood War.
Some of the topics discussed:
-MC's appearance on 'Hyungjoon Becomes A Progamer' as a comic relief rapping and singing
-Whether MC's BW career would have taken off like his SC2 career did.
-Does the lack of success of the elite four in SC2 (MC,  NesTea,  MVP, MarineKing) during their BW careers mean Flash, Jaedong, Stork and Bisu would dominate SC2 if they switched?
-Protoss players MC looked up to BW.
-When MC knew he would win the GSL.
Part one of this interview can be watched at SK Gaming.

1)but he has flaws in his gameplay
2)and his mental mindset
(1+2 go together, compliments of each other. 2 effects 1)

Beeing the best doesnt mean beeing perfect.. does it ?

Saying that Flash would do well in SC2 is kind of an obvious statement.

But in regards of the video
i give it 2/5
Bad lighting
and shaky camera
All fixed by
1) tripod
2) Lights
lol

MVP is right there with him, if not a little bit ahead.

well when being claimed as the
"best"
you have to be a well rounded player
mechanically
physically
mentally
if you are lacking in one of those catagories
you will make mistakes(as we see MC do)
and not be able to reach the "best" spot
but games to volatile still to have the
"best"
theres def atleast 5-6 people in the running for that position

Would have to agree with this. Anybody who has seen a FPVOD of Jaedong or Flash can see they are on a different level than even players like MVP (best bw player to come to sc2).

Shall I fluff your pillows and leave you a mint chocolote to top it off sir?

Video won't load for me.
I don't understand why the interview wasn't just given in text, though. It's translated from a different language and just takes longer to watch than to read. It is literally a waste of time.

Nada/July?
But yeah its a real no brainer if you had to pick someone from BW to do well in SC2 it would be Flash or JD.

Flash would definitely do well in any games really. This guy is not a human being. I mean, can you imagine such a godly player using marines, marauders, hellions, banshees? He could break the game for months. until blizzard decide to nerf terran. But anyway thanks for sharing this interview. I love MC.

Nada and July are legends, but past their prime and would have gotten smashed by MVP.

I meant at the time they came over.
Yes Nada/July have much better achievements, but to say they were better at BW than MVP when SC2 came out is flat out wrong.

Way to state the obvious.
@Darthxx exactly what someone who didn't watch sc1 would say. Nada and July are legends in terms of accomplishments. But like any other game, the skill level increases as the game is out longer. Mvp is so far the strongest sc1 player to switch over, and his results/play in sc2 prove what sc1 skill will do for you in sc2.

He has smashed euro and korean tournaments recently and it doesn't look like he is stopping anytime soon. How can you not call him the best player when he globally has the most achievements?
