Do you feel an urge to participate in more foreign tournaments from now on?

I've learned more things from playing in international tournaments than I have from practicing at a team house. I want to participate in many of them as long as my body can keep up.


Sorry dude, it's not going to happen if you stay in a KeSPA team.

How can you not like this guy?

Also, if we're handing out the "Korean killer" title, it definitely goes to Rain.

Rain seems genuinely confident, yet humble. How do I?

I'm pretty sure he knows what he can and cannot do. Probably better than you even!

I doubt he even wants to, ProLeague is his main priority, so he'll most likely only go to Blizzard or MLG events.

Parting should stop being such a cocky kid, everytime he makes a boast he gets taken out. At least that's the picture I've got of him.

Also, everybody get on the Rain hype train. Mad props for living up to it though!

Best player in the world right now.


I could see him as the best protoss player in the world, but certainly not best player in the world. He played very well here, but obviously lost in GSL to MVP and nearly lost to Last.

Were Rain, RorO and BW herO successful in BW? Out of curiosity (never followed the scene).

Congrats to Rain. I really wanted Parting to win(but it seems like its time to give up on that dream), but it is good to see him take it.
He deserves all the wins he is getting.
Good interview.

They had a 50-60% win-rate I believe.

He's been around for a while. Before Telecom he was in MBC Hero and was known as By.Sun. He's had some success, but this last year he's exploded.
