Ling ering regret indeed.

Also plucking weeds in military is kinda funny.

And not to mention using ghosts because of fan service in a finals.

This is an excellent interview, thanks for posting.

That statement about Axiom brought up some emotions. I wish MMA all the best.

Wow, this interview was awesome. Seems coming out of the military has made MMA very unfiltered. Reminded me of how cool he was.

The build orders I used at that time, instead of using builds I was confident in, I used builds the fans liked. I don’t think I’ve told this story before, but I used Ghost builds in that series. At the time, if you looked at community sites, there was a lot of talk about how cool it is to use Ghosts. I thought if I used Ghosts, the fans would be really entertained because it would be the first time someone pulled Ghosts out in TvT. Also, if I used it in a final, I felt like I’d get a lot fans, and StarCraft II would be more fun to watch.


And this, right here, is why I was hooked to watching SC2. The devotion some excellent players show to their fans is, in my humble oppinion, unparalleled. Thanks MMA! Always entertaining, always exceding.

Nice shoutout to TB and GB at the end. I knew they did a lot for the scene, but damn.

I was loving MMA's play in person at the 2014 Blizzcon, hope to see him at another!

I really like MMA and I'm sooo glad he's back. But now I really want him to lose in a GSL final against soO
Furthermore, I consider that some kind of Code A must be reestablished.
