Top 10 in the Korean ladder before actually practicing, indeed he had even slightest amount of difficulty.

I actually lost a lot of fans since I retired from Starcraft 1. I guess I did not take care of them enough. Once I returned as a pro-gamer with Starcraft 2, all of my fans have evaporated. Haha. I’m sure they’re all doing well, but the Conqueror has returned and please support me. I was hoping that I will at least have some fans when debuting… but NONE came and I was shocked… haha

bad Koreans!

I am still learning a lot while practicing the game. At this pace, I think I can continue on to the Code S and win it. For some reason, I am very confident with myself right now.

That's pretty interesting. According to forgg, maybe that means he started playing seriously for 2 months, and messed around for the other 6?

It really sounds like he barely has any experience of playing sc2 in his interview.

There's a difference between ladder play and professional team house training. I'm assuming that's what he is talking about when he said he has been playing for 2 months.

Jookto is probably a really good zerg who suffers from some stage fright. I mean he's qualified for a bunch of Code As but always gets knocked out early.
Same was true about Cezanne, now he's tearing it up

Thanks for the translation.

I read it as bionic being more complicated than in SC1.

Anyway, thanks for the interview! Was waiting for this.


I think it really depends on the way you read. I think he's saying that Bionic is also more difficult to use. Therefore terran overall is more difficult in sc2. =) i think.. hehe

Thanks though. I appreciate your comment!

Thanks for reading guys!


Considering how hard bw was in general, I find this a little hard to believe haha. Maybe it's different for a top-level pro.


BW Terran is mechanically harder than SC2 Terran. But the Terran race was simpler in BW (for better or for worse). Difficulty and simplicity are two different things.


How?


BW Terran mechanically harder: only one building selected at a time, no auto-mine rally point, only 12 units per control group

SC2 Terran more complex: more viable bio variety and viability (in BW, bio is viable only in TvZ excluding cheese and your composition is mostly marine, medic and sometimes a firebat), tons more openers in SC2 (2-rax, banshee w/ or wo/ cloak, reactor hellion, blue-flame hellion, 1-rax expand, cc-first, siege-expand, fast medivac drops, marine-tank push, hellion-marauder push, 1-1-1, 2-port banshee, 3-rax stim timing, iEchoic, ghost-rush, bunker rush, Boxer's reaper rush, etc), the addon-system and addon-swapping in SC2 adds complexity to build optimization and timing. In general, SC2 Terran units are more viable in most matchups than in BW and that adds complexity.
