This interview is really good. Thanks for translating! Even though I'm a Flash fan, it's hard not to love JD also.

so awesome


And also SC2 has less variables in micro-control such as Zergling micro or Mutalisk micro. I can overwhelm my opponent only with micro-conrol in BW games but I can't do that in SC2. But I think there are many unrevealed elements in SC2 and I expect we can show you more in the future.


this guy has it down.

Thank you so much for this interview seron! It is very apreciated. I always enjoy reading Jaedong's interviews, but this was more interesting than usual.


To all eSports fans, I want to be remembered as a progamer who can make something out of nothing, and someone who always does his best. I think that is the right way of living, and I'm always doing my best to follow that.

Jaedong is my role model. I just love this guy.

And also SC2 has less variables in micro-control such as Zergling micro or Mutalisk micro. I can overwhelm my opponent only with micro-conrol in BW games but I can't do that in SC2.

And this is, in two sentences, the explanation to why sc2 is a bad game.

SC2 is a bad game? Too bad your role model seems to disagree with you.

Seems like a very modest and intelligent guy, just as I'd expect from someone with his repute and legendary status.
Very interesting that he says SC2 Z is harder than BW Z, wish some people here on the forums took note of that.

Why bash the game your role model plays? :/ And why pick part of a paragraph, but ignore the second part?

But I think there are many unrevealed elements in SC2 and I expect we can show you more in the future.


Doesn't sound like Jaedong hates the game.

Many of you guys obviously did not follow or even watch a single game of BW and are completely misunderstanding the context. In BW, zerglings and mutas were much more microable than they are in SC2. Jaedong was able to win plenty of games on zergling/muta micro alone. He can't do that anymore in SC2 so it's harder for him. Without the strength of his zergling/mutalisk micro, he's nowhere near the dominant player he was at his peak.

Obviously he thinks it's harder to play, because it's harder to win when you can't use your strength in micro.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.
