Dear Teamliquid,
this is Silvano 'mTw|NarutO' and I will be doing various stuff for the upcoming HomeStoryCup III hosted by TaKeTV. I will be doing the interviews with the pros and probably some more or less random videos to capture impressions all over the event or from the community.
To accomplish this task to your full satisfaction I'm here to seek for questions. Do you have a question you always wanted to ask a progamer but never had the chance? Something you are eager to know or just too curious about? Suggest your question now and it might be chosen and forwarded by me to your favorite progamers. We have progamers from all over the planet. MC, IdrA, Huk, Grubby and many more!
All interviews and videos can be found at the official TaKeTV youtube channel under the following link and will be updated LIVE while the event is running.

Does Grubby feel he can reach his full potential while being part of a 1 man team. Does he miss having team mates to bounce ideas off in secret knowing they will stay hidden until a big tournament setting, rather than having to find practice partners who may discuss with others any strats planned.
|
Great event!
But why do people keep using outdated pictures of Idra 'The gracken himself' for disclaimers etc. T_T
|
For some reason Huk looks like a white version of Mike Tyson to me, is it just me!?
|
What are you most looking forward to for the next patch, and/or Heart of The Swarm?
Also what do you want implemented in the next patch, and/or Heart of the Swarm?
|
Will you co-cast with Take, too? Awesome to see you doing this.
|
- Which beer brand does Dimaga love the most?
- Will TLO stay in Sweden even if he cant practice?
- Could Haypro and Dimaga do a cast together?
- Is anyone vegetarien?
- @Rotterdam, why do you think doesnt Khaldor like strippers?
|
My question is why isn't Naruto playing, I think he would be the favourite for this tourney

they did cast together at the last Homestory Cup
and it was hillarious btw, hope they will do it again
|
Are any of the rivalries actually real? (Huk vs Idra) or is this all in the name of self promotion and adding flavor to the matches.
Grubby - why did you leave EG? do you miss having a team to actually practice with instead of going solo which doesn't seem to be going very well for you.
|
Ask all who are comeing from broodwar
-if they would be interested in a sc1 homestory side tourney
ask all of warcraft 3
-if they would be interested in a wc3 homestory side tourney no money of course just honor

could somebody plz finally fix the date in the pic?
This is how it should look like :p too lazy to put MC instead of TLO in the pic, sorry^^
Anyways... cant wait for the tournament to begin =)
|
Ask everyone who they least likely want to face and who they think will win the whole thing!

For Huk, we miss you in North America, any plans for a vacation back home?

Yeah they need to fix the banner ASAP xD
Seems fixed 
|
how did this get burried o_o
|
out of all the koreans MC seems like hes really making an effort to play in alot of foreign tournaments
|
Its not a question but rather a wish

Hmm, that is a great question. Not sure how to answer it though.
I thought of another one.
If you could buff one unit on your race, what would you do?
|
Looking forward to this alot!
Some questions for you, sir
1. (Any Korean) How do you like this style of tournament, with the more homely feel, compared to a Korean, KeSPA-run tournament?
2: Liquid'Ret - Are you ever going to explain to us what happened with that chick in Columbus? ;-)
3: Liquid'Ret - It's been a while since so many 'Liquid members have been together. How is it seeing all of the teammates again? Do you guys still talk to each other regulary, despite the timezones?
4: Liquid'HuK - Being back in 'the west' does it bring some kind of urge to move back?
5: Liquid'HuK - Who's the best of the 'Liquid protoss?
6: Liquid'Jinro - How is your training in Korea at the moment? Is your motivation intact from your powerhouse performance in the start of 2011?
7: Liquid'Jinro - So many swedes here! Also, a few will go with you to Korea. Thought about starting a swedish colony in Korea? Do you guys have anything planned in terms of cooperation when you get back?
8: Liquid'Jinro - Do you see any specific differences between Korean style terran and western, if so, what in particular do you think are the biggest differences?
9: Liquid'Tyler - Are you starting to feel the motivation again or is practicing still tough for you?
10: MC - Awesome that you are learning english so fast - Respect! Are you going to have some german beer this weekend?
11: Grubby - What mechanic do you miss the most from WC3?
12: Demuslim - If you didn't have your team/sponsors to considder, would your primary focus be the competition or the drinking/networking going on? ^^
13: WhiteRa - What do you think of your nick "Grandpa-toss"?
14: WhiteRa - What is the best part of living in Ukraine? What would you recommend checking out if visiting the country?
15: idrA - Have you heard any of the players say, that they will willingly get elliminated from the tournament early so they can just party all weekend?
16: idrA - Can you say something/something about this event that will make Geoff feel even more terrible for not being here?
|
Could IdrA and HuK do a dual-cast together? (Preferably a PvZ)
Just kidding, the only question you could ask for me is: (@mc) How do you like Germany?
|
@rotterdam: how's the gigolo business going?
|
Get IdrA and HuK drunk and film them like it's Big Brother. Easy way of immortalizing your event with some epic IdrA vs HuK quotes.
|

At this point he probably sees them as less tournaments and more opportunities for foreigners to donate money to him.
|
Who is your favorite Take /Naruto ?
|
Bring it! Not enough questions! :D

Yeah, actually that was so great, I couldn't believe how cool the two are as a casting duo! Haypro always seems a little shy and quiet, but when he gets into it, he shows so much insight, it's amazing. And ofc Dimaga is the funniest Zerg ever
|
Idra: Are you the Overmind?
|
To everyone: "describe your playstyle in one word."

YES! I so want to see that!
@Jinro What are you working on to get out of the slump you've been in the last months? Any plans to move back to Sweden and move in to the Prohouse there?
@Dimaga How come you are not in more international events?
@IdrA are you and MC really not that big enemies like the people seem to think? Do you actually get along?
@Grubby When do you think you'll be at the level where you really can compete for the top spots in events like MLG and similar?

Can someone link that or so? I want to watch it so badly!
|
to IdrA: Do you still follow the BroodWar scene and watch VoDs of The Ultimate Weapon?
|
@everyone: How do they like it in Germany, german food/beer/culture/women/stereotypes all that.
@everyone from war3: do you miss heroes/ do you think heroes would fit in starcraft2?
@demuslim: why did you only build marines/medivacs vs MYM.ParanOid in the EG.Masters Cup? Did you play on tilt or do you think its viable ?
@everyone: try to speak german :D ? preferrably americans they got the best accent ^_^
@everyone: EU vs NA whos owning who?
|
@IdrA (and I guess any foreigner hesitant to go to Korea): If Korean would have a few more regular tournaments than only the GSL and GSTL, would you consider going back?
|
I'm wondering what the progamers would be doing now if they weren't progamers, and if they ever had any back up plan for when gaming didn't work out.
|
@ Koreans
do they experience a big difference of the "western" accommodation in comparison to the ones in Korea and if so, which kind do they like more and why
@NA-guys
do u dare challange an EU in drinking GERMAN beer (maybe "Radeberger" - the ones from "2 and a half man")
@non-germans
how do they like "Doner Kebab"
also i 'd like to see the following format of play:
Every Korean chooses a (foreign) padawan. Those padawans play a FFA while coached by the Koreans, who are explicit allowed to gather information from the other padawans (without disturbing them) and pass those information to their padawans and give them according advices. In addition a shoutcast is provided for everyone, including Koreans and their padawans.

oh god what have you done... cannot be unseen t.t

|
@Ret: do you have to move to the swedish pro house or do you prefer to stay at home?
@haypro: do you live at the pro house fix or is (or was if you moved away) it just temporary?
|
@Dimaga: Why don't you play more tournaments like MLG/DH/NASL? I really would like to see you more often.
@Idra/White-Ra: Which game do you like more - sc:bw or sc2 (assuming both games are totally balanced and get the same attention)?
|
thanks for the vid.
i want more of "SHOW ME YOUR FLAT" that's just sooooo interesting.
|
@German based Players: Their opinion on the Swedish pro-house and if they would like to practice and live in a team/pro-house themselves.
|
Question is about balance in Matchup like pvz zvt pvt
Answers from HUK and IDRA sitting next 2 each other would be awesome.
Question about skillranking (without the koreans) like top 5 and worst 5
|
mTw|NarutO - Will you do shoutouts/credits to the persons providing the questions?
|
Ask if mondi and darkforce can make a cast toghether!
|
@IdrA Does the fan support after moving back the the USA effect your play at all? If so, is it postive or negative?
@IdrA If you were to change the game so zerg could get earlier scouting, what would you do(examples: adding units, etc.)?
|
someone said it earlier but please idra and huk casting together a pvz i will pay
|

No.
|
@IdrA: Would you go back to Korea if you would win a MLG/S-Spot?
PS:
I think there should be a side tournament with the same system but with Blobby Volley instead of SC2!
|
A good filler question to ask anyone when you might not have a question prepared: Which superpower would you rather have, flying or invisibility? (and why)
(not a sneaky banshee/dt question, I promise)
|
Naruto - any promises to your fanboys concerning your EPS future?
|
Can people ever stop asking if Jinro is going back to Sweden? He said numerous times he aint coming back unless he falls out of Code A or just cant make a living out there.
EDIT: And IdrA said he is not going back to Korea even for Code S. Why the fuck would he when he left a Code S spot.
|
|
|
why is Dimaga on such a small team (no offense meant at MtW), and has he ever thought of joining larger teams with more players, and a more well known team?
|
@TLO: Do you miss Supreme Commander?
|
@Dimaga: Dimaga you are probably the best zerg in europe, what do you think is the main cause you don't play that much on offline tournaments like Dreamhack, MLG, IEM?
|

I think its a good question to JinrO if you pair it with something else ;-)!
AND PLEASE PEOPLE GOGOGO QUESTIONS :D I still have plenty of interviews to fill and right now, not much questions from here can be added..
"Are you the overmind" WTF! :D
|
in an interview before iem cologne idra said hasuobs is just "not good"
did he changed his mind?
and in general
who are the people in the cup impressed of // who did they underestimate
|
For Huk: In Dreamhack, did you already notice a big or a slight difference between foreigners and Koreans in skill and gameplay.
For Idra : Are you afraid to be completely outclass in a near futur by Koreans because of their trainings, if so what you gonna do to keep up with them? Do you think the future EG team house will be enough to stay at a world top level?
For Morrow : You seems like a hard working guy and you want always to improve, do you think that if you want to continue to improve and not hit a plateau at some point, maybe you have to move to Korea because the best players in the world are there.
|
For TLO (who is there as a caster? (?)): Do you regret having started to play again as it affected your health? Do you feel the healing would have gone much better if you hadn't done this?
For IdrA: Apart from balance issues, how do you think you can improve your game? Where do you see your weaknesses as a player?
For Delphi: How do you enjoy your new team and how big will the impact of the change on your play be?
|
Ask everyone this question: What kind of interview question do you dislike the most?
Edit: Not a troll question. Just genuinely curious.

@Darkforce: How happy are you with your results in the recent months and how far do you think you can make it in the NASL Finals?

@TLO: Which one of the pro House members is the messiest one?
@White-Ra: What does he think about the balance in ZvP? Or in general, his opinion on the state of the protoss race right now.
@HuK: Can he keep up with the korean practice schedule? and is it really that hard to play that much? Is it hard to communicate?
