The rumors are more realistic than your estimation that Flash and JD will switch to SC2 in 10 years.

I was enjoying your interviews until you make this remark



Do you really think that Flash and Jaedong will switch to SC2 soon? Maybe in 10 years, but definitely not soon. BW is stil established in Korea whether you like it or not. No A-teamer has switched to SC2 yet. July, Nada? Even MVP was a B-teamer for Woongjin. The only thing I know about him is that he took 1 game of Flash. Nestea was an old 2v2 player and Zerg coach for KT. BW A-teamers will not switch soon, mind you and your fantasies.

I would love it so much to have any Chinese players at an MLG. Also, where is it possible to watch their stream?

There is talk about how it's not just War3 doing bad, but the entire RTS genre in China atm. PanDa is also having issues paying player salaries, and they couldn't pay Lyn this month, I think, but he's doing private talks with them to sort it out.

你在自己的家联系还是和你的队友住在一个队家在一起？

Loner: 我和队友在一起的，在上海。我们有四个人（领队的话是五个）、四个房间，然后两个比较少，两个比较大。我的室友是LoveCD。

XiGua: 我们在一起联系。我们的队家在北京，在传媒大学的旁边。中国所有的比赛建立在北京或者上海，上海要多一点。这个比赛结束以后我们就回北京。

LoveTT: 我是一般在自己的家联系。因为我就住在上海，我们的俱乐部也是建立在上海。【在你的队家有几个人？】算我的话有六个。


你每天练习多长时间？

Loner: 现在是八个小时，没有休息的天。

XiGua: 每天十个小时，有的时候更多。如果输的话，就不要休息，但如果赢的话可能会要休息一下。

LoveTT: 就是不确定，一般可以，大概是我觉得二到八小时吧。有的时候人比较累，有的时候想调节一下自己，玩玩其他的游戏。


中国服务器的竞争是不是激烈的？你有没有机会在韩国服务器联系？

Loner: 我不在中国服务器联系，我在韩国服务器联系。我有两个账户。【什么分数？】那就是秘密的。

XiGua: 不是特别激烈的，所以我总是在韩国服务器联系。一般ping是100ms左右。

LoveTT: 不激烈，就是一个影响力。就是可能我们的玩家太少了。我们一直都在韩国服务器联系。【你有几个账户？】有很多，三四个。我最高的分数应该是三十到五十左右，Grandmaster。


在你看来，在中国谁是最好的Terran、Protoss和Zerg？

Loner: Terran：我、Protoss：LoveTT、Zerg：XiGua

XiGua: Terran：Loner、Protoss：LoveTT、Zerg：我 【昨天Dream.F91赢Tyloo.Infi的时候他看起来很厉害。】对其他的Zerg来说，我觉得他们差不多。我可能要好一点。

LoveTT: Terran的话：Loner。Zerg是XiGua。Protoss的话我觉得。。。谁是最好的？Tyloo.Jim

Also, you have 联系 several times where you mean 练习. It must be a typo cos it was translated properly.

I don't have a camera to record with, I only took notes and recorded their voices. First time I've done an interview.

I wonder if there's a meaning behind LoveCD now (Perhaps he really enjoys his CD collection).

Q: There's a fever in the international StarCraft comunity, a shared feeling that in the near future, StarCraft 2 has the potential to lead ESPORTS to an explosion in popularity. The planets seem to be aligning, if you like. Broodwar legends like Flash and Jaedong will likely soon switch to StarCraft 2, the expansion, with its potential to make the game even better, is just around the corner, and the current competition in StarCraft 2 is getting more intense all the time.
Many think that China is another key component in achieving this ESPORTS dream. How can foreign fans and organizations help the Chinese StarCraft 2 scene integrate into the international community?

Joy: This is indeed a very complicated question. One very helpful development would be if more Chinese gamers were invited to MLG, IEM, IeSF, IPL and so on, because if Chinese players want to go overseas, getting a visa is a big problem. If foreign fans watched more Chinese competitions, maybe that would help a lot too.
Another thing is Chinese players treasure national honor, so they get very excited if they get to compete against players from other countries.
