Lee Siwoo is one of the most respected korean esports journalists, I don't think he's lying or misquoting at all.

I spoke to him at length last night regarding the translation of this article and her comments afterwards - and he's not. The story and quotes are legit, and he is trying to write a follow-up blog regarding the Jessica incident in all of this.

I think it'd be only appropriate if Boxer went back to his Protoss roots.

there is no law requiring me to play only Terran forever

There can't be a better sign that something is wrong with Terran if even the great Emperor himself wants to switch. Please BoxeR, you need to be Terran (even if I hate Terran :D )

And South Korea passes a law to require boxer to only play Terran forever.

Play any race you want BoxeR, but come back and play !

(Kinda off topic : what is Jessica's problem again for Flash's sake ?)
SC2 is the best game to watch and was the best to play before I grew old and slow...

Well, he was the best at a certain point in time.

I'm sure Boxer will pull through. Before his heyday, Terran was considered weak which was why chose to use the race. I'm sure T's will think of something in time.

My gut reaction was "Umm whaaaaaaaa???" and my brain sort of seized up for a bit. But, you know, twelve years is a pretty freaking long time to play terran; if the Emperor wants to spice things up, if switching races gets him excited to keep playing, that's pretty awesome.

What did the SC BW pros do when their race was UP? They kept playing until they had a play or strat perfected which allowed them to beat the new meta-game or whatever. Why is this an exception? Have we past the threshold where we're being spoon fed by Blizzard now? We just give up instead of trying to be innovative?

I kinda lost a bit of respect for BoxeR..and not just him. any other pro who complains and just half arse the game because terran are having a hard time. although I do understand it's frustrating since it's their job to do well.


BoxeR got reavers nerfed, and switched because of the reaver nerf. The former's a half-lie, the latter's the full on truth. Just throwing it out there.

Like what? All terrans are struggling. As in all.

Hopefully Blizzard fixes this mess and Boxer remains a Terran...
