Today Liquid'TLO participated in an AMA via Reddit submitted questions. This is a summary of the questions/answers. Ie, it only contains questions that were given answers to, as well as punctuation/grammar corrections.
The original content can be found here.
Therofle745 : You're known for switching between the races a lot, if you could make your own race of 11 units from the game which 11 units would you pick?
TLO : Haha that's a cool question. Okay here we go:
- Zergling
- Hellion
- Stalker
- Infestor
- Raven
- Warp Prism
- Phoenix
- Ultralisk
- Reaver (I don't care that it's SC:BW)
- Hydralisk
- Queen
Wommytomble : Will you ever go back to South Korea, even for a month / few months?
TLO : Definitely.
Euphzji : What's your favorite memory from your time as a pro-gamer in Starcraft 2?
TLO : Becoming part of Team Liquid, Jinro winning MLG Dallas and Huk winning Dreamhack.
Phynicks : Who is your favourite Korean player to watch play?
TLO : In SC:BW it was reach, in SC2 it is Bomber.
Dejarnjc : I only have one question and I apologize in advance if it sounds offensive, but do you ever think that you'll be more successful if you focused on one race and a few specific builds, rather than always doing crazy things? I watch your stream sometimes and your mechanics are amazing but it just seems you abhor "standard" games.
TLO : I wonder that too sometimes, it's a good point and I need to play more standard build orders, that's for sure.
Zergscurge : What is your secret tactic to never missing a larva inject?? We never got to see it.
TLO : Haha. I don't know if it even works yet just stay tuned :D
F4hy : I love your Tech Lab steal in TvT (when you did it against boxer, it might be my favorite SC2 moment ever). Do you feel it is an actual viable strategy, or just catches them by surprise and throws them off?
TLO : I scout a lot with my barracks in TvT; it's not only good if you steal a Tech Lab, but it gives you free scouting. A barrack is cheaper than mule and you might even get it out again.
MichayelLyon : Are you playing in any big tournaments anytime soon?
TLO : Battle in Berlin, MLG providence and Dreamhack Winter.
Dan479 : How is it living in Sweden without speaking Swedish, at least fluently?
TLO : It's easy, everyone (yes EVERYONE) knows English in Stockholm anyways 
Chahlz : Why are you so awesome at Zerg? I love what you do against Protoss.
TLO : Zerg is EZ.
Drakan290 : Do you think that your carpal tunnel will interfere with your professional gaming career, or do you think the rest period and your schedule will keep that away?
TLO : It influenced me since I got it, but I am getting better and better at playing a ton and not making it worse, but better again
NiceBoat : Are you going to change your nick from TLO to GOD if you start playing Zerg?
TLO : HAHA. Wow I didn't even realise GameOfDrones appreviates to GOD, that is so awesome! :D
A_Lion : If you were a Starcraft II building/unit, which one would it be?
TLO : Haha. No one has ever asked me about building before that's cool... I'd be a pylon, just chilling all day and spinning.
Lolbrey : Do you ever see yourself competing in GSL?
TLO : Yes I hope so.
Yoeschmoe : I got a few questions that I hope you can answer.
Q - How's the life of a pro gamer? If you compare it to a normal job, say working 40 hours a week. Does TL demand you to play for eight hours a day?
TLO : Life as a progamer is AMAZING, but a lot of hardwork; if you count practice as working hours most pro-gamers have a 60 to 80 hour and we rarely take weekends. On top of that travel is very exhausted but also cool.
Q - How's the earnings (not specific amounts, more percentages) do you get to keep all earnings from streaming and tournament wins?
TLO : Most of the salary revolves around streaming in several ways, and yes we are allowed to keep everything from winnings and streaming.
Q - You mentioned earlier this week that you're getting professional help to set up a daily schedule, any insights on what you will be changing in your daily life?
TLO : I will probaly live more coordinated and by a set schedule and healthier in general.
JediDwag : We've seen you playing Zerg again, so are you planning on brushing up your Protoss as well and going back to Random?
TLO : I am sorry, but I don't see that happening, I was never good with Protoss and it barely suits my thinking and style.
Rileyrulesu : Under what conditions would you move back to korea?
TLO : Under the condition that I am completely regenerated from my CTS and in top physical shape. I am considering going back some time next year.
Johnprospekt : Who is one player on Liquid that you really envy or look up to?
TLO : When Huk was still in Liquid, I looked up to him. His attitude and experience in life is remarkable. If I am allowed to count Liquid`Nazgul then I've got to pick him, he is inspiring and I hope to be able to lead a life similiar to his some time.
Infestinatoria : Who is your biggest rival in the SC2 progaming scene?
TLO : Considering how many times I lost against him in tournaments and how often we meet, I got to say White-Ra. He is an awesome person and we are friends, so I am speaking only of the player and not the cool guy that Aleksi is!
Hodness : Does SC2 help you get ladies?
TLO : At events, a lot, but not always the kind of girls you would like to get involved with... most girls outside of gaming are quite impressed with what I do too though. Which is better cause then they aren't groupies and you have an ice-breaker, because being a pro-gamer that travels the world makes you interesting by definition.
Krirby : Are you seriously considering switching to zerg, or are you just having fun at the moment playing them?
TLO : I am thinking about playing both races.
Tooeasyforkevin : You listen to a lot of movie scores on stream, do you have a favorite one? Also, are you a Dirk Nowitzki fan?
TLO : Gladiator, Inception and Battlestar Galactica Soundtracks are my 3 favourites. And no I am not, as I don't follow basketball.
Ingebrigtsen : What happened to the Sweden house you spearheaded?
TLO : It didn't go as well as I hoped, it was a fun time and a good experience. But we disbanded. It wasn't organised enough to have the effect we hoped for. If I ever were to try something like that again, I would go into it with a lot more money so we can have a cook, maid and a coach just like in Korea.
Sensationality : The beard... What made you start growing that magnificent beard?
TLO : A Girl I know wanted me to grow it, and now I decided not to shave it until I do great in tournament.
Treskol : Who is your favourite foreign player and why? Who is your favourite korean player and why? Excluding team bias as well
TLO : White-ra, easy pick. He plays differently and makes Protoss watchable :D
Sprinklesismyname : What did that guard say/do to you when he took you off camera while you were massaging Husky at MLG?
TLO : Nothing and it was actually Kennigit from TL, not a guard 
Lastlie2 : Favorite ice cream? :D
TLO : Strawberry.
Mangrovejackson86 : Do you feel a lot of pressure to perform, due to your huge explosion in popularity during the beta and early days of SC2? If so, how does this pressure effect your gameplay and mindset, especially at live tournaments?
TLO : It does effect in me in bad ways sometimes. Losing feels a lot more horrible if I know, I once again dissapointed. It depends on my mood. A while ago I felt like crying after each bad performance, but it's important to try to keep these things away fromm you and stay cool, but it is hard at times.
Baumkramer : If you had to sleep with one pro SC2 player, besides yourself who would it be?
TLO : Hahaha... too bad there are no pro SC2 girls yet... If I had to pick one it would be Demuslim of course.
RMTSC2 : Who is your favorite Team Liquid player besides yourself, obviously?
TLO : Jinro!
ObsKura : I was wondering how you're coming up with all those unusual strategies. Are you doing this on the fly (for example today with the cannon rush counter into two gold hatcheries) or are you just messing around with ideas and decide this stuff as soon as you see the loading screen with your opponents race? Where do you get your inspiration and ideas from?
TLO : It often just makes sense right away. Sometimes I just have these mhh inspirations in my head, they don't really come from long thinking processes but they just happen...
PwnagePlus : What is your favorite kind of beer?
TLO : Czech beers are my favourite: Budvar (the original Budwiser von czech), Staropramen and tons of german beers. Generally I like Pils best, but I drink anything from stout, ale, pilsner and dark beer.
Tolsohaha : When did you know you were going to be a professional gamer?
TLO : I've wanted to be a progamer since I was 12 years old, I met Nazgul the first time back then and it was my first gaming event, I was only a spectator but thats when it sparked.
Roboteddy : Do you wish non-standard creative play were more usual and feasible? Do you think it would be possible to design an RTS that encourages it?
TLO : I think everything can be made possible in a complex enviromnent, the misconception is that you can make up for bad mechanics with creativity. If you want to be succesful your mechanics have to be on the highest level (something I want to achieve eventually).
Natemonster : How did you think of your username?
TLO : My older brother and I came up with it together in Supcom, he was TheBigOne and I was TheLittleOne.
BillieSC : Who's your favorite caster?
TLO : Hands down Artosis, then Totalbiscuit.
Herrco : Any other games or genres you like to play for fun?
TLO : I like fast paced tactical FPS like Quake 3, but I barely have the time play other games. I hope I can spend some time on Skyrim, but I don't know yet.
Chinamenchen : Who do you think are the top 3 most handsome SC2 players?
TLO : Demuslim, Tyler and Boxer
Oidtlmer : At what point did you stop schooling and do you think a good education is needed when taking up professional gaming?
TLO : I finished high school when I was 17 (12 years of education) and then studied for 2 more years, but stop after 2 semester in 2 fields because I didn't like it, then I became a progamer. I think a high education helps in ANYTHING you want to do. Education is good and important and should be a focus in everyones life from childhood to senility. ^^
Madcookie : Some professional players say that they lost their ability to have fun while playing SC2, they just play it professionally. Do you have fun while playing the game?
TLO : I defintely still have fun playing the game, there are days when you hate it, but that's normal with everything you love
Baksch : Hodor?
TLO : Hodor hodor.
Djeb081292 : Can you Tell jinro he is awesome?
TLO : We should all tell him that more often, because he really is
Ijustupvoteeverythin: Do you think anyone who dedicates time and passion can become a professional Starcraft player and compete on the highest level?
TLO : I think you need to have some prequisites. Good hand-eye coordination, some extent of intellect, but other then that I believe everyone can become anything they have time and passion for.
Leezard : What's your favourite tournament to play in?
TLO : So far, MLG. It's a nice atmosphere. I am looking forward to Battle in Berlin though, short trip and nice tour in Germany
RaistEU : Maybe too personal, but are you worried about the future? I always wonder how safe pro players feel in their line of work.
TLO : Honestly, I am not worried at all, I am 21 years old and I know people in leading positions of a dozen million to billion companies. I think I will find my place, I am probably luckier than most people in my age.
Leturmindflow : What is your favorite kind of food?
TLO : I can't really decide on a single dish; Korean BBQ is very high, but in general any well prepare Meat - vegetable Combination delights my stomach (several asian ways of frying chicken and beef are my favourites).
Cyclestarcraft : If you weren't on Liquid, which other team (Korean or foreign) would you be interested in being a part of?
TLO : No team to be honest. If I weren't with Liquid, I would try to be a free agent or team up with Grubby if he allows me to
Johnnywup : Who is your biggest rival team?
TLO : EG
RoboticSoul : I just got cheesed 9 times in a row and won one macro game. How do you deal with these kinds of situations? I got really angry and nearly broke my keyboard; I just felt like not playing any more
TLO : Just keep cool. I don't get bothered by cheese or anything, but that's because I respect every tactic as viable. Try to think like that, it helps.
MangusWolf : Which pony is your favorite?
TLO : Rainbow Dash, closely followed by Pinkie Pie
ConnorOSA : How long did it take you to be a Pro-gamer in Starcraft 2? Did you have coaching?
TLO : I was a progamer a few months after Beta, thanks to Nazgul and Team Liquid
Invader_xD : Do you have a girlfriend?
TLO : Sadly no  if someone knows any smart and nice girls in Stockholm, get me in touch 
Andelas : Do you still keep in touch with Huk?
TLO : Not enough, we really need to talk more its hard to keep in touch with everyone all the time
Metabie : What are you looking most forward to in HOTS ?
TLO : Mech becoming stronger and more mobile
Wilp : Did you get your name from a stickman doing doggy? :D
TLO : haha fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Minhchi1211 : How many groupies have you got and slept with over night?
TLO : I try to dodge groupies these days, its not good. They are traps
Roxorr : Do you miss living in Germany and if so, what do you miss the most?
TLO : I love living in Stockholm and recently my oldest brother and best friend from Germany came to visit. But I miss two things; sometimes German Beer and German Bread. Seriously why is no other country able to produce tasty bread...

i dont approve of the bread-bashing! otherwise, great read!
Also, Lapin Kulta > all!

Goddammit TLO. Pick a race and use that potential you've to the fullest T_T
I know, I know, you will be you but it still kinda annoys me :l
Nice Q&A tho, lots of interesting answers, especially the one about feeling pressure to perform. As a community, we really should not give so-called "slumping" or w/e players so much crap. They're just guys who love the game like us, only they're playing it for our entertainment, and still we give them shit. This goes beyond TLO. A guy like Incontrol who does so much for the community still gets shat on every time he loses. It's kinda ridiculous.

I agree with this, I feel so bad for Incontrol every time someone shits on him, have some respect people...

TLO stay zerg you're sooo good with zerg! <3

My American bread will just never compare to the fine bread available in Germany .

Really surprised TLO knows about the ponies though

? when did tlo switch race again? i thought the most recent was random before some mlg months ago...
|
FRENCH BREAD FTW. Other than that, fun read :D
Also, him playing T/Z is great news!
|
I lived in Germany for a while, damn I missed thoose breakfasts =/. In Sweden it's like milk, raisins and special K 360 days of le year.

TLO is single? I don't believe it. He seems like such a nice guy - except, he plays terran(or zerg now wtf?)....+ Show Spoiler +

Take a look at how TLO talks about himself and others, then at how Incontrol talks about himself and others. Might help solving the mystery why people are generally nicer to the former.
In any case :D TLO delivers big time with his answers, as always.

Yup, TLO knows what the good things are.
Also, I want to see that ZerTerraToss he mentioned on the first question. Quickly, someone do a custom map!

Stickman doing doggie cannot be unseen.

Damn TLO knows his ponies
|
TLO is a class act, i hope he gets as healthy as possible, picks a race, and gets some great results in the future.
|
I can only agree that german bread is the one and only. I bet the first thing he'll do in berlin is buying like an entire bread and eating it with some butter and wurst.

Lol, I have a good German friend and he was also bashing bread outside of Germany. I think they are objective in this :D
And TLO lied about playing Zerg. He is only streaming playing Zerg because he seen that streams of Idra, Sen, Destiny, Sheth and Catz bring a large number of viewers :D

Germans are really fucking serious about their bread. A single german bakery probably has more different kinds of bread than the rest of the world combined.

u kiddin right?
the only country who can compete with germany in terms of bread, is italy ! and i dont only mean standard ciabatta shit....go to an italian bakery and you will be almost in heaven (only almost bread heaven is ofc germany)...
but some nice questions and answers
altough trying out zerg again just proves, he already again lost focus...at least a bit. it just sounds that tlo is sometimes like a little child which gets bored of his toys after a few days playing with it....

Are you fucking kidding me? German bread better than French bread? And more diversity? Ahahah we are the French, we have the best cheese, the best bread and the best wine you can't take that from us! ( read it with a strong french accent :p).
Joking appart it's probably a question of taste and habits, but I'm pretty sure France has the highest concentration of bakerys and we have a huge diversity of bread as well.
And our bread is better.
And our cheese.
And our wine.
And the saucisson.
I think I'm hungry now ^^.
( sorry about that, but as a French I don't have that many opportunities to be chauvinistic, but food is one of them so i'll take that :p.)

Nice! I didn't realize TLO was playing Zerg again. I'll have to keep an eye out for his stream so I can watch. He's super creative and I'm excited to see what unique ideas he brings to the race.

I never said better, but seriously. Believe me. It's more. A LOT more.
(From Wikipedia: "Germany prides itself on having the largest variety of breads worldwide. More than 300 basic kinds of bread are produced with more than 1,000 types of small bread-rolls and pastries. It has been estimated that the basic kinds of bread are so widely varied by more than 16,000 local bakeries that more than 1,000 different breads have been presented at a 2005 Cologne bread show.[12] Germans are worldwide the biggest consumers (per capita) of bread, followed by Chile")

what's stickman doing doggy?

I don't get the stickman joke. Anybody cares to explain?
|
I was waiting for a question from poopfeast123, i'm disappointed
|
TLO is awesome. Would be great if he could get some good results sometime in the future, always cheering for him.
About the bread: I would say German and French bread is the best. When it comes to rye-bread though, there really isn't a country other than Germany to get a really good one. Considering white bread i would go for the french. German rye bread with real butter and french camembert, so simple so good. Hmmmmmmm getting hungry!

If you look at the characters "TLO" it looks like a person on all fours, bent over... I'll leave the explanation at that.

My hero <3
Also, I can say with some confidence that TLO is going to surprise a lot of people in 2012 with his results (in a good way). His multitasking ability and the polish of overall mechanics right now is something that I haven't seen from a non-BW progamer yet.
Even now, most of his recent losses are purely strategic.

haha stickman doing doggie
nice questions i have to say and TLO of course being smart and playing zerg again
I ♥ it

is he that good in zerg? last time I watched he still wasn't playing that well. Any comment on that?

I've seen him do consistent 4-pronged Roach attacks (with drops) vs Robo in ZvP and he micros every one of them simultaneously while barely ever missing an inject. Good enough in my book.
His Zerg account: http://www.sc2ranks.com/eu/2194194/GameOfDrones

He is so right about the bread.. no truer words have ever been spoken.
German Breakfast FTW.

They're both so dedicated to Liquid, and Jinro's even said he would quit before joining teams like EG on his stream (TLO's said similar too I think. They said that around the time Huk switched to EG and people were asking if they were too).

Huh? Does he do something special?

This is why TLO is my favorite player since from back in the early days he is so fun to watch with his different exciting play, and I wish more ppl would watch him because oftentimes I'll see a strat in a high level (sometimes even GSL) game and I'd hear the casters say "oh wow i've never seen this before!" But I'd think to myself, I saw TLO do that a month ago!
GL for his future success, Liquid`TLO/GoD fighting!!!
best music on stream too IMO

Cool to see he answered my question. I can't wait to see him try for GSL, whenever that ends up being

This guy apparently don't like Rainbow Dash and Pinkie-Pie man..better leave it alone.

this guy so baller
|
he sure has a great taste in soundtracks and ponies
much respect for him for doing stuff like this; he answers a lot of cool questions from his streamchat in-between games as well
|
Chinamenchen : Who do you think are the top 3 most handsome SC2 players?
TLO : Demuslim, Tyler and Boxer
why u lie tlo?
|
I totally agree, everytime I visit another country I wonder how people can actually eat the stuff they try to sell as bread.
Stay Zerg man, makes you an amazing player to watch and suits your unique and creative style more.
|
Haha TLO I admire your taste of things ^^

it's because in every country outside germany i have been to (except austria/swiss) there seems no one at all to eat brown bread.
also most of the time the "bread" is always just fucking toast in different shapes. (exception is france ... i love baguettes and croissants)

You should go to Denmark then! We have a sort of Schwarzbrot as well

but about the stickman... i would understand OTL with O the head and L the legs, but I have some problems turning TLO into a stickman. is the L still the legs and the T the arms? then what is the O? and if the L is the arms, and O the head, then the legs look a bit weird? Can I get a really awkward detailed explanation please.
|
Great interview, nice to know what TLO is up to these days!
|
Zerg is EZ.
Well said TLO.
|
he answered my question..but it wasnt in the op.
me: what came first, the cc, the scv, or you.
him: the cc, i never come first.
many laughs followed
|
Best answer for any pony question: im not really into pokemon.
Also, TLO is the only person i know who played SupCom and SC2 competitively. But TLO is hard to reach for a question, and i wouldnt want to rob his time either...
|
TLO is so smart. Demuslim is infact the absolute most handsome nerd in the SCII community and like Geoff once said on state of the game "ladies love the demuslim" and I do too <3
I really hope you'll do well again Dario. I want Artosis get all wiggly and jiggly again when you use them nukes :D

If you look at the characters "TLO" it looks like a person on all fours, bent over... I'll leave the explanation at that.
omfg. hahaha. cannot be unseen. :O

German bread? gimme a brake, the bread they make here at the villages is so good u can eat them without anything and they last for several days. Even the not authentic version of that kind of bread, which u can find at bakeries and supermarkets probably beats all the rest.
Btw kinda shocked TLO has favorite ponies  Also why would one take the hydralisk with him in a hybrid race?
|
Thanks for the transcript, this is awesome and looks like a lot of work
|
Hahaha he likes all the fast units :D
|
Baksch : Hodor?
TLO : Hodor hodor.
Wow ... that just made my day
|
I think you guys need to get laid or something, how the hell does TLO look like sex?? can someone make me an image or something, this is bothering me lol.
|
Best. Interview. EVER. From the very first question, which was so interesting (though - no ghosts???) to Game of Drones to creativity to Rainbow Dash... way awesome. TLO hwaiting!

Goddammit TLO. Pick a race and use that potential you've to the fullest T_T
I know, I know, you will be you but it still kinda annoys me :l
Nice Q&A tho, lots of interesting answers, especially the one about feeling pressure to perform. As a community, we really should not give so-called "slumping" or w/e players so much crap. They're just guys who love the game like us, only they're playing it for our entertainment, and still we give them shit. This goes beyond TLO. A guy like Incontrol who does so much for the community still gets shat on every time he loses. It's kinda ridiculous. I agree with this, I feel so bad for Incontrol every time someone shits on him, have some respect people...
He gives so much shit to people. He should be able to receive it gracefully too (which he does, in general). He's an adult.
Nice candid interview from TLO. I hope he switches back to Z personally.

TLO so awesome!
I imagine his pickup lines go along the lines of "Hey, I'm a progamer, I have a great sense of fashion, I travel the world. Can I buy you a beer and we can do a TLO?"

is he high? rarity is clearly the best pony D:

Wow this was one of the best interviews ive read, good questions, funny answers and covered a lot of points. Good job and thanks for sharing! <3

You underestimate his prowess. Plus he needs to test whether his new method for never missing an inject will work.
What are we talking about again?

MangusWolf : Which pony is your favorite?
TLO : Rainbow Dash, closely followed by Pinkie Pie
Though I didn't think it was possible, TLO just became at least 20% cooler.
hee hee. What a baller this man is.

being into colourful ponies makes you a cool baller? *insert i dont want to live on this planet anymore meme*
i have nothing against ppl liking whatever they want, but how on earth is that "baller" ? Damn that word is so overused and so incorrectly.

Yeah lapin kulta is nice (i didn't think someone would know it too) but Kapuziner is the stuff. Trust me and my 200 different bottle of beers collection.
|
TLO, can i hook you up with my gf's sister here in stockholm? :-p
|
Seriously why is no other country able to produce tasty bread...
TLO spitting mad truth. I could never leave this country again. I grew up eating Wonderbread, now I have about five excellent bakeries within walking distance of my apartment.
|
i. want. to. see. tlo. play. zerg.
|
Lol this make me want to travel to Germany just to try their bread. Something about him makes me think he is not lying. I WANT GERMAN BREAD
|
I have wondered that for all of my life- seriously world, y u no have good bread?
To be sure, some of our neighbors do have decent bread, but yeah- rest of the world is lousy white bread only. Bah.
Much love for the rest of the interview too <3
German bread
|
some of these questions were sick. i look forward to more questions like this for other progamers.
|
Excellent Q & A. Always loved TLO. I wonder if he thinks Protoss would fit his style a little more in HotS with recall on the Nexus.

TLO could wear a pink tutu, sing disney songs, and do a ballet dance and he would still be the biggest baller ever. TLO is in fact the archetype of a baller. He is to baller as Peron is to populism. He is to awesome as Jay Gould is to indrustrialist.
Since he is a RBD fan, this makes him 20% cooler. Not hard to follow, I'm not sure where the disconnect is happening here.

French Bread TLO...French...Bread. Best in the world

Its true though. Sweden has probably the worst bread in all of the world, it's just so full of sugar and syrup and is both unhealthy and way too sweet taking dominance on anything you put on the bread.
Yes there are exceptions but most of the bread is filthy

I love the shout out to Reach, by far the most manly of all SC:BW pros. Will there ever be a SC2 player whos zealots are baller enough to be called manlots?
