Interview with IEM NYC Champion Life directly after winning the title over Naniwa. Life speaks about throwing down those manner hatcheries in Game's 3 and 4, Naniwa's playstyle, and getting back to the top of SC2:

"I was able to close it out because Naniwa going for the similar type of builds"

Short, clean, and shows Life's personality. Young, taking names and living the dream! Glad to see how he laughs regarding the manner hatches against Naniwa. He's a sportsman!

Smix with wonderful translations.

Saw the video earlier. Nice interview, even though the voice-over translation takes some getting used to, for me at least.

Why does everyone love manner buildings/mules so much in Starcraft 2? This stuff rarely happened in Brood War, yet it seems like every time I watch Starcraft 2, people are doing it. It's not really interesting anymore, and multiple games have been lost as a result of it.

I happens not so often IMO. But I think it brings a bit of excitement to the games, independent of the actual outcome of the game . I like mannering that way.

For me, placing a manner CC/hatch/nexus is most fun if the ppl actually lose afterwards :D

Why so much hate? O.o?

I was so happy when Naniwhine were losing, he was crying even a day before about PvZ, and Life trolled him many times, I think Life would really 4-0 him if didn't try to troll on the games =P

I felt like Life was overconfident vs Nani and was just messing around at some points in the games. If he had taken the games really seriously it would have been 4-0. I felt bad for Nani, though he did play great vs San and Hyun.

Whaaaatttt?! Sorry, but I have reasons to hate Naniwhine, and 99% of E-Sports viewers know why there are reasons to hate him, but why the hate on Slasher? That is the question.

His Void/sentry into 3 base seems really strong but if you do it consistently in a Best of 5 series it will be get figured out and good players like life will beat you.
