Awesome post! I look forward to hearing more about the SC2 and esports scene in China! With as many residents as China has, they could be sitting on a goldmine of great players

Thanks for the writeup! NSL looks awesome, the production value looks great. I hope the scene in China can find a bit more funding so we can see their players travel more.
Jaedong gives me a deep resonance.

Awesome interview. China is finally getting into SC2. Thanks god Blizzard fixed the monthly fee, so we can see more players from there. It's funny because i think they're the only ones who said they want to avoid Korea and go to EU or AM. So weird to see people saying that, but I guess that for them Korea is like Canada or Mexico for USA, a place where you wouldn't want to live, but it's a nice destination country, so there might be that. China is still China after all.

PS: Xigua = Flash? oO


I am pretty sure a lot of chinese would love to live in korea. Separation of powers and all that good stuff.


Is there any possibility for these chinese games to be casted in english?

NSL looking pretty good in its debut. Hopefully it can become more accomodating for Western audiences, and can be as large as the GSL one day.

How is WC3 doing in China? Will players like th000, fly and sky switch over to SC2?
Would be interesting to see how they would do at international events in SC2.

China is mainly Dota 2 /LoL / MOBA now. Every single RTS player in China deserves people's support, they are playing for their passion.

Legends never die... they end up working in McDonalds.

WC3 is pretty dead in China right now, most chinese tournaments/leagues aren't featuring wc3 any longer. It appears you haven't read the interviews in the OP because it discusses all those three players future in wc3. About the rest of the wc3 scene Infi said the following "Most WC3 players in China have already switched to DOTA, rather than SC2." in an interview with tatazu.

you can read the full translation of the interview with Infi at: http://gosugamers.net/general/news/18787-infi-s-move-to-starcraft-2-my-adaption-is-so-so

As far as I'm aware the original Dota is still bigger than LoL and Dota 2 in China.

Well of course it's bigger than Dota 2. Dota 2 is still in closed beta.

Who do you think are the best Terran, Zerg, and Protoss in China?

Loner: Terran: me, Protoss: LoveTT, Zerg: XiGua

XiGua: Terran: Loner, Protoss: LoveTT, Zerg: me
Q: Dream.F91 looked pretty good yesterday when he beat Tyloo.Infi.
XiGua: I think the other Zergs are pretty even, I might be just a little better.

LoveTT: Terran would be Loner. Zerg is XiGua. Speaking of Protoss I think... who's the best? Tyloo.Jim.


conclusion:
LoveTT is modest
o:

also hmm...
Joy: Popularizing and advertising for the game is very hard, and there are lots of other games for gamers to choose from. Chinese gamers prefer games with guilds, like World of Warcraft or some other MMORPGs. Also there isn't much funding invested in Chinese tournaments.

I'm talking about viewers, the DOTA tournaments still have significantly more viewers than the DOTA 2 and LoL tournaments in China.

Thanks for the pictures and interviews.
As a Chinese SC2 fan living in the States, I keep watching VODs of the NSL season 1.
But it's always fun to know more from different angel.
