Works better in Chinese :3 Heartbreak of the Swarm is probably the best way to translate it to English. | ||

Elfi said that he played a whole day and never lost a single game. Don't forget China got SC2 only this year in June so everyone else has had a whole year on them. Elfi talking trash but then all 3 Chinese make it out of their groups and he doesn't, priceless. | ||

Considering gsl is broadcast in China this could be a clevermove to get more fans and viewers in both countries Didn't the new plan for the GSTL "encourage foreign team participation" I'd love to see iG come over EDIT: Only issue is they have Xigua, Macsed, XY, and Comm which IIRC isn't enough players for GSTL. Unless XiaOt decided he's ready to kick more ass | ||

Xigua：其实还好吧。感觉不是很大，主要是自己出了问题。 I can speak good Mandarin and I would say the direct English translation makes Xigua sounds a little... arrogant? "吧" this word already includes doubt in Xigua's statement. Therefore I would translate it as: "Actually I guess it was still okay, doesn't feel too big. The main problem lies with myself." I know my translation is definitely not the best, but I do think it is more accurate than the original. He does not straight up thinks he did fine and the skill gap isn't that huge, he knows he did terribly and could have been better, that's why he feel the skill gap isn't too huge (I'm not saying he does not think that there is a skill gap). Well, guess it's just my own interpretation, do correct me if anyone out there(who is familiar with Mandarin) has objections. | ||

And nobody ever said they had a super gene, they just have insane dedication. Not really, Xigua looked really shaken (especially after the first set) and played poorly in comparison to what he normally does. I'm pretty sure in a bo7 he would take at least 1-2 games off MVP and it'd be relatively close. Obviously there is a skill gap, but it's nowhere near as big as most people are making it sound. Honestly I'd say Xigua's vP is as good (or almost as good) as any Zerg's, his vT is kind of lacking though. | ||

May be my name isn’t familiar to you now, that’s ok. But you will remember me soon. I will keep fight until I become 30 when I can’t play it anymore. Thank you for your support." That's the weirdest response to that question I've ever seen | ||

《电子竞技》杂志：明年有没有计划来韩国留学？另外对虫族之心怎么看？ Xigua：俱乐部已经有计划来韩国打比赛。另外我觉得虫族之心后虫还会继续悲剧，因为虫族之心没有翻译完，应该是“虫族之心碎了”。 I will do a bit translation on this part. Magazine: Any plans participating in Korean tournaments in 2012? Also feeling of HOTS? Xigua: The team has the plan to Korea. I think zerg will continue to suffer in HOTS, 'heart of the swarm' is not complete, it should be 'heart of the swarm is broken'. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + 《电子竞技》杂志：能总结一下所出的问题吗？ Xigua：第一把是我自己有个很大的失误，就是没有第一时间侦查到他第一个兵营，绕了很多路，后来对他的Rush没有反应时间了。第二把的地图其实我想了非常多，但是他的三坦克那一波打乱了我的节奏。因为我本来是在防他空投上做了很多准备，比如我一般都会出24条飞龙放空投。但是当时他三坦克后我判断他科技会慢，我就开始攀科技停了飞龙，当时只有12只。所以当他开始空投时，我没有足够的飞龙吃掉一船兵，节奏慢了，等他中间的行星要塞起来我就太难打了。 Xigua: I made a big mistake in Game 1, not scouting his first Barracks immediately, took the long way around, and didn't have time to react to his rush. I had thought a lot about the Game 2 map, but his 3 Tank push disrupted my rhythm. Because I was preparing a lot for his drops, for example, I usually make 24 Mutas to deny drops. But after his 3 Tank push I thought his tech would be slow so I delayed Mutas for tech, and only had 12. So I didn't have enough Mutas to take on a drop, which slowed my rhythm and the game became much too difficult after his Planetary Fortress was completed in the center. Anyway, looking forward to seeing him in Korea. BTW Chinese tournaments maps: G-League: Dual Sight Crossfire Tal'Darim Altar LE Shakuras Plateau Antiga Shipyard Abyssal Caverns Tarsonis Evac Point PSTL: Antiga Shipyard Dual Sight Tal'Darim Altar Metalopolis Shattered Temple Crevasse Terminus Quite a lot of GSL/MLG maps absent, and quite a lot of old, no-longer-used maps. | ||
