. But sometimes honesty is precious. He is basically saying he is winning in SC2 because it is all about mechanics, microing big engagements, and no strategic finesse is involved, contrary to Broodwar. Good to hear this truth from (one of) the best performing SC2 player ! | ||

My point is, these interview questions sucked for a personality like that. What are your hobbies? Who do you hang out with? Do you like TV? -.- Ask him about his philosophy of life. Ask him about his country of South Korea and tension with North Korea. Introverts have a developed inner world, you just need to know how to reach it. Sorry Wax, but IMO almost no person is boring, if it seems that way, the interviewer failed. Everyone has something that makes him tick, and gives him passion, you just gotta undig it. | ||

He brings home the bacon by simply winning. Charlie Sheen bitches!! The guy is an iceman like chuck Liddell or Kimi Raikkonen. The guy wants to be the best and doesn't waste his time. I would respect that. Don't know why people are calling him a lame robot? This is a sport, if you want personality go watch Disney. Introverts don't have hobbies...? | ||

Yeah I'm introvert and have friends that are introverts too and we have tons of hobbies and interests. Not sure what everyone is on about with introversion being the same as shy and shallow. It has nothing to do with Bogus being a boring dude. | ||

Imo Innovation is a super cool human. But the interview was not tailored well to his personality. It's like you talked to Tesla about football and what he thinks the best play of the season was? He'd reply 'i don't care, I don't watch football'. Then you ask about girls and he replies he's celibate for life. You'd think he's a weirdo and boring, and the guy is chaining lightings. I just get a feeling Innovation's mind is super sharp, he has his own approach to life and isn't affected much by other people's opinions. A big chance was wasted by asking 'wrong' questions. | ||

I was expecting a few kespa pros to say that, but Bogus was a really strong player, and for him to say that is a bit revealing to how the pros really felt, now that BW has ended. I'm actually not surprised to hear him say that. I recall reading one or two BW interviews a while back where the players question their passion for the game. No matter how fun the game, the jump between it being a hobby and it being a job will strain one's enjoyment of it over time. I wouldn't be surprised to see players question their enjoyment when facing losses or slumps, and though Bogus was a strong player with a lot of potential in BW, he wasn't quite TBLS level which might be connected to whatever frustrations he had with the game or his personal performance in it. | ||

It's revealing as to how he felt, not anybody else. Particularly since one of the main reasons he gave is the fact that he's so much more accomplished in Starcraft 2. | ||

On what are you basing this? He essentially says that he has no interests outside of Starcraft 2 and isn't active socially. Outside of questions regarding Starcraft 2 strategy or something, what can you really ask him to make him sound interesting? | ||

Ask him what makes him really angry in life (or the world)? Ask him about his family. Ask him more about what it's like growing up as the eldest in his family and having that many siblings. Ask him... | ||

Outside of questions regarding Starcraft 2 strategy or something, what can you really ask him to make him sound interesting? Im basing it on myself, and people similar to me who were greater than me, but would answer to those questions similarly to Innovation at that age. I know I wouldn't be able to passionately answer to those questions. But I would be a little more 'polite' and try to answer a bit more colorfully. However, notice that I'm draining my energy that way, as I don't really wanna answer trivial questions that make me yawn. (But since Innovation doesn't give a fuck what people think of him, he just responded how he felt.) However, I'm VERY passionate about other things in life, which many normal people find 'unneccessary complications of life'. Spirituality being one topic for example. | ||
