Want to know how to defend against a 2-rax the right way? How about some tips on executing those sweet multi-pronged Zergling roach attacks? Who better to ask than one of the world’s most proficient swarm commanders, MVPDongRaeGu.
Over the course of the upcoming MLG Spring Championship (8th-10th June), DRG will be personally answering 3 of his favorite questions, submitted by you, each day on the Razer Academy. On top of that, we’re giving you the chance to win SIGNED MVPDongRaeGu Razer hardware if your question is picked by DRG. Pretty sweet deal, right?
Thanks to everyone who participated in the competition and be sure to check out the Razer Academy for tutorials and lessons by Team Razer's top Starcraft 2, League of Legends, DOTA2 and fighting game players.
DongRaeGu, you said that you want people to think of you when they think about Zerg. However, some very strong Zerg players have started making their mark on the Star 2 scene lately: Symbol, Violet and Byul.
What makes you different from these rising Zerg players to ensure that you will keep the Zerg crown as king of the Swarm?
What was the most stressful match that you have had in your SC2 career and how did you handle it? Is there a routine or mind set that you get into before stressful matches or tournaments?
How do you feel about Korean participation in foreign tournaments? Do you feel that the number of Koreans in tournaments like MLG is unfair to the players overseas, or do you believe that a competition should always choose the strongest competitors without regard to nationality?
Winning the gear would be nice but I don't really need it... I'm really just curious to hear a Korean's opinion on the matter! There's been lots of hustle and bustle in the foreign scene about Korean participation in this week's MLG and I'd be really curious to see what he had to say!
How do you think Starcraft II will apply to your life in the coming years? By this, I mean, Polt is currently in University, Nada finished University, and both used their earnings - I believe - to help fund their education. What do you want to achieve out of Starcraft II that can apply to your life outside of eSports (i.e. which direction to you want to go once you begin tertiary education) and how do you think you can put these skills to use? Unless, of course, you wish to stay within the eSports community and become a coach or part of the media environment (a la Oov, boxer, Lee Jihoon, etc.)

He's answering his favorites supposedly, so I hope he is! Probably just picking like 20 at random at the end of the day, writing a blurb, and hitting the sack.
For the record, mine was the best. Just sayin'.
Great initiative, Razer, always doing new and exciting stuff!
DRG, you seem like a very cool and collected person. Recently we have had a lot of zerg success like Symbols reverse all kill. Zerg is a very mechanical race so do you feel that nerves affect you? Or does the pressure help motivate you to play better?
Many Zerg are accused of being "cheesy" or "all-in" as opposed to your trademark and well-known "macro oriented" style of play. What sort of things did you encounter through ladder and tournaments that helped you refine your style and develop this very powerful and now-popular style of play?
this competition seems almost pointless, there is no way DRG is looking at 2000+comments after mlg. My guess is he will choose the first 3 he sees on the first page and thats that.
The fact that you are the most studied zerg in the world is a great achievement. Compared to Stephano who is the most studied zerg outside of korea. What strengths and weaknesses do you feel you have over him?
How do you recover from such early attacks so beautifully and still dictate a game? What are the key things that make you think you must start droning immediately instead of follow through with an attack?
When you get to T3 in TvZ, what makes the decision between going for broodlords and ultralisks, is there anything specific you look for before making that decision, or is this always decided for you in before the game?
Does it bother you at all that, despite being the most successful Zerg at the moment, Broodwar pros are looking to Stephano's play rather than your own for inspiration?
What is your next big goal/accomplishment that you would like to have? Does winning GSL Code S mean more to you than winning an MLG, for example, or what is a personal goal that you have. What means the most to you and makes you want to play on.
Hey, I just wanted to mention that I thought this was a cool little thing to do - nice and quick to watch, but the questions chosen were a nice departure from the common "how do you feel after you won" that gets asked so much.
Question from War How do you feel if someone rushes in a tournament, like MC for example. He loses a game, then he rushes the next time. Do you think that's right or wrong?
Question from Dark, DRG Im your biggest fan and I ask When your playing a game are you nervous or do you keep your strength and confidence up, including at a point where you are losing?
isn't this over? why are people still asking questions... btw i don't mean to be mean but some of the questions (i'm looking at you warbobz) are just plain bad!

Hey DRG, what do you feel about the KeSPA players coming over to SC2? Are you confident that you can remain the best in the world even with the likes of Flash and Bisu switching?
