When publishing a written interview you're not supposed to transcribe every single pause, "umm" and "like", especially when talking to a non-native speaker. I understand that one of the goals of the conversation was to show Elazer's emotions after his victory, and some of the stuttering helps to convey that, but this is too much. It's just difficult to read. I noticed that TL has a strange policy on interviews in general. You guys even give disclaimers when you edit interviews while it should be absolutely clear to everybody that every interview is and should be edited before publication. | ||

Prize money earned by the top 10 korean T: $ 3,482,427 Prize money earned by the top 10 foreign T: $ 784,311 Prize money earned by the top 10 korean Z: $ 2,458,458 Prize money earned by the top 10 foreign Z: $ 1,748,632 Prize money earned by the top 10 korean P: $ 3,245,603 Prize money earned by the top 10 foreign P: $ 1,334,427 Numbers taken from https://www.esportsearnings.com/games/151-starcraft-ii/top-players As we can see the gap between foreign and korean Terrans is huge and, while the numbers are a lot closer for Zerg. And while Terran is the most successful race in Korea, Zerg is the least successful, just looking at the money. Exactly the opposite is the case in the foreign scene, where Zergs have made more than 3 times as much money as Terrans. I really wonder what the reasons are for this. I guess Korea always had Terran players as their biggest stars, like Boxer and Flash, while in the foreign scene the earliest star was IdrA, followed by Stephano. Other than that I wonder if the mechanical requirements for Terran are also a big factor. I guess there are too many reasons that all come together, but it would definitely be good if the situation could balance out, so that going to Korea is no longer the only way to practice your XvT matchup :/. | ||

Let me help you with your memory. Let's take a quick look at WCS live thread were only a few of your messages weren't expressing how much you don't like Elazer.
