On top of all that, he believes he needs 3 championships to believe he is "good" and felt nothing after winning the first. His mind is always on starcraft except when he's not practicing and he enjoys going for walks(a rarity lol). All in all, a mechanical player who loves the game and is 100% dedicated to it and dedicating to making himself a name in Korea. Only thing I found odd is his lack of love for BW. I mean, that's obviously ok but he's played that game for 3-4 years before SCII so I would figure he feels something for it but guess not lol. | ||

Based on the interviews I've read, a lot of ex-BW pros actually really like SC2 and felt rejuvenated due to the switch (of course some don't). I don't know if it's just duty that requires them to say good things about SC2, but most pros have been very positive about it--much more positive than the community. | ||

Great player though, fair enough. you have to remember that from a very young age, he's spent most of his life practicing in front of a computer. it takes a certain personality to be able to do that relentlessly. it's why he's able to even get an interview. | ||

I'm aware of that, I can see he may lack the social skills to conduct a decent interview, but there are plenty of others who have done the same and at least give something back to the interviewer - particularly from a major foreign website that has used convoluted channels just to get the interview. I can understand they reasons behind his lack of intrigue, but it doesn't make for pleasant reading. | ||

Fantasy believed that SCII suits his style much more than BW after he dismantled Nestea back when he first switched.

He actually DOES seem very concerned with image and what his fans think if he'll give answers like that. | ||
