Loved reading his reaction to the accusation that he skimped out on shouting everyone with his Blizzcon money.

Gotta feel bad for Classic though going down the way he did against those all-ins. Poor guy, just when he finally managed to make it to a finals again too.

I hope he becomes the next GSL Code S champion so he may fulfill his incomplete victories.

Did Rogue actually complete Triple Crown?

BlizzCon WCS Global Final : North America Title (Check)
IEM Katowice : European Title (Check)
Afreeca GSL Super Tournament : Korean Title ( ???)

Because I saw Neeb's victory in Kespa Cup last two years also counted as Korean Title, so technically Rogue also did the same thing.

Be funny if he wins a WESG or something to get the quad.

Good read, hopefully he can get GSL title too.

I'd love to see him pick up a non-weekender in Korea (GSL or SSL if that returns) so people can't try to put an asterisk next to his triple crown.

If Neeb's counts (it does) then Rogue's counts too.

Great interview, he seems like a fun guy. Hope he gets to relax for a little and then gives us some more good games!

I know it's completely irrational and I shouldn't blame someone for being shy and introverted, but I have a hard time cheering for someone who seem so utterly incapable of showing any emotion after winning a world championship. He really brings the most akward celebration I've seen in Starcraft, and that's saying something.

Now I like the fact that he's such a dangerous player, able both to win in the supreme late game and by cheesing, but boy is he hard to connect with (also Maru why)

StarCraft Wars: Rogue Dinner One.

OT: Good read Wax. Did he actually say he will work hard or did he actually say "I will continue to work hard and show good games"?.

I also wondered whether or not he intended to show good games.
