Cool to see that the SKT guys are motivated. Sounds different from a lot of other recent interviews.

HerO certainly is good at PvZ but idk if you can say it's better than anyone's. Trap certainly is good at that matchup. And HerO is really inconsistent. Remember the time he lost to Min? LOOL oh SlayerS T-T

Thanks Mintie! No surprise Rain says Classic is really good (other than the be-nice-to-the-new-teammate thing). I'm waiting for him to break out in an individual tournament somedayyyy -_-

Nah, HerO has some decent strategies, but Rain > HerO in PvZ still. And everything else in the game. HerO has spurts of brilliance, but Rain has been the best for so long now.

I agree with that outside of PvZ. Rain's PvZ has looked rather weak, especially against Jaedong whereas if you look at HerO, he just keeps rolling zergs. The last zerg that beat HerO in a Bo3 was Scarlett in WCS America last season over 2 months ago... after a failed cannon rush. HerO beat Jaedong at IEM and 4-0 on stream, Hyun 3-0 and just seems a lot more comfortable in the matchup compared to Rain.

He will show the ultimate PvZ against Soulkey. I think Artosis might die of happiness when he sees this.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Yeah even his recent results aren't that impressive. Scarlett is foreigner, she is good, but not great. Hyun is good vs foreigners and ZvZ's, Jaedong is very hit and miss as well. I would love to see HerO beat Symbol, Soulkey, or even soO. I just don't think Zerg's in general are doing that well vs protoss, let alone the Zerg's HerO has played against. I still say Rain is better.

I still say Rain is better.


HerO has never dropped a map against Symbol, he's 9-0 against him. He beat Soulkey in Proleague and he's never played soO. The only real measurement of PvZ that HerO and Rain share is Jaedong. Rain lost 0-2 whereas HerO is unbeaten against him. As for Hyun, he recently made sOs look like a diamond league player at Dreamhack.

Overall PvZ in HotS: HerO 70%, Rain 60%

I mean Rain has played only against Korean zergs in HotS but he hasn't looked comfortable in the matchup and he's shown a strong tendency to all in in it. He's repeatedly said that he feels vZ is his weakest matchup, even after WoL. HerO is pretty confident in PvZ.

"The mood in the house is incredibly good. We’re all really enjoying the game. Our recent addition Classic is really good so there’s a lot to learn. Lately, I’ve been motivated to play the game."

That's nice to hear. :D
