XiaoT is a huge baller, definitely looking forward to seeing him in the near future. If you guys want to see English casts of the XiaoT vs IdrA and XiaoT vs MarineKing games, you'll find them on the iCCup.TV youtube account. I recommend you check these out if you're not familiar with XiaoT!

S: Talk something about your practice, now how many hours do you and your team uses into practise?
X: Now we get up early and we take 1 hour in gym between 9 am to 10 am, and then we practise from 10 am to 8 pm, then our free time.
S: The time is much less than oGs, they usually practise from 11 am to next 3 am. How do you think the difference?


Bullshit about oGs. Unless this is a mis-translation.


Oh please, their 16 hour training regimen is known far across the lands.

I remember him :O
Great orc player :D Didn't follow the wc3 scene past few years but didn't knew his father died and that he retired only to come back in sc2 :O and also that he was a former BW player as well :o

Wonder if he'll become like Sky of wc3 for sc2 and popularize sc2. Seems very promising for him in sc2.


Hehe, same thoughts were running through my head. Seems like lots of Orcs pick Protoss, at least Grubby did - and me as well

But yeah, I liked Xiaot back in the WC3 days and esports in China is getting so huge (Dota anyone?), they definetely have to be represented way more in SC2 than they are now!

Because he was orc in wc3. Everyone knows Orc players turn into Toss players.

Had the potential to be the best player ever in wc3, itll be great seeing what he can do in sc2.

Thanks for the translation, we need more Chinese players interview like this. XiaoT was the only Chinese WC3 player I like, there is something special about the way he play. His root is in SC:BW so switching to SC2 is like him going back home :D.
Hes been doing beastly on the CN server, will root for XiaoT in future tourney .
