Hyun and ForGG have yet to be proven. They have been good in Code A, but it's correct to judge them only after seeing their Code S games.


Boom, Mr. Chae doesn't follow the hype trains and lays down the law. He is a smart man, no hype till players perform in Code S.

Good read. Mr Chae always brings it strong.

That last question and answer. I've never been so owned.

Rofl.

Out of curiosity, did the editorial staff consider asking him about the Naniwa incident? If yes, was the subject broached with Mr Chae or his minders prior to the interview? If so, was it put in the 'don't ask' basket?


GomTV has declined to comment on certain topics in the past.

My faith in the GSL has been restored by how perceptive this guy was about the world. He knows how to lead eSports, guys! Let's follow him.

Mr. Chae did a great job with that interview IMO--it was actually pretty insightful.

If I can use the World Cup as an example, it might be easier to explain. If the World Cup went purely by FIFA rankings, Korea would never be able to play, and it would have become a tournament that only South America and Europe enjoyed.



I think this is actually an interesting comparison and something I didn't think of before. I loved rooting for Korea in the WC . I do wonder if he's really right when he says "the teams and players have no qualms" about the system though.

It seemed that the GSL had difficulties acquiring large sponsorships compared to Starcraft 1 leagues or foreign Starcraft 2 leagues. Is Starcraft II unattractive to sponsors in Korea at this time?


Can someone from the interview staff comment on this question? Pepsi, Samsung, etc. seem like pretty big sponsors... I don't understand what prompts them to ask this. Relatedly does anyone know if you can get hot six in the US? Also anyone want to place a bet on how long it takes for Tastless to mispronounce that ?

Also, we have some good news regarding the GSTL that will be sure to surprise you. Look forward to it, we guarantee it won't disappoint.

What did Chae mean by that?
Has this announcement already been announced, or is there more "news" about the gstl that has not been released?

Does someone at IGN have a gambling problem? The only place IPL seems to turn up at are Casinos. Or is it just all about the Glug Glug and the US has retarded drinking laws?
