Cool vid, thanks for the content as always!

But I don't think interviews are obsolete or less liked than fpvods. Good interviews are also pretty timeless. It's just really hard to get a good interview with the language barrier and translation loss.

Nice video! Btw this is the guy who knocked out Taeja at the 2012 Auction OSL qualifiers right?


Edit: Is Balloon still an amateur player?

He's apparently on Startale but he may have joined immediately following the qualifiers. The account he was using had the [NEX] tag and he wasn't in a uniform in the video.

Damm, he is using his index finger for the majority of key presses. Isn't that way to much stress on a single finger?

It's cool of you khaldor to post these videos, but I want to say blast that Balloon, I wanted to see Sniper qualify.
It is also funny when you post these first person videos. I just knew someone was going to say something about Losira/Kangho and his fingers.

Can't believe that some people here actually have to balls to shit on khaldor for giving us content like this. It's disgusting.
Thank you for doing this, great content as usual. I'm interested to see how this balloon is going to do.

Damn it Khaldor! Don't you know what happens when you post these APM videos?! <3

Anyway, pretty surprised, though I cannot say I cared for his playstyle very much when I watched the matches.

@PhoenixLight
I use index and middle finger almost entirely, minus control, alt, shift keys. Can't say it's ever really bothered me, but it depends on the keyboard a lot. Then again, I don't have the APM he does and I certainly don't play nearly as much as he does I'm sure.

I normally love your content, but this was pretty random in terms of content. It doesn't feel like this single video is thread worthy unless you were to post a compilation of FP vods with Koreans qualifying. That would definitely be interesting and much more exciting than watching a single FP vod of an unknown player. Maybe post a few more to compare to?

(just a few ideas on how to make this thread more entertaining! no hard feelings <3)

Did he build 2 Twilights?
Now witness their attempts to fly from tree to tree. Notice they do not so much fly as plummet.

I liked his build. Perfect timing on Mscore to stop early ling aggression, followed up by DT rush. Omnomnom

Woo so much awareness in the end, perfect timing with his army and GGGGGG

People always joke that Protoss only use two keys (1 and A), but this guy is clearly pressing the shit out of that 4 key! Jokes aside, I feel we don't get a lot of Protoss APM videos so it was super nice to see one (however I have been pretty removed from the scene lately ). Thanks Khaldor!
