Hi
As some of you may know, White-Ra launched his own website ( www.white-ra.com ), and I thought it would be interesting if we released an Ask White-Ra series with questions from regular players, as opposed to holding interviews.

I figured TL would be an excellent place to get questions from English-speaking community, so if you have any questions you would like White-Ra to answer, please post them here! If everything goes well, hopefully we can turn this into a weekly thing. I will submit the questions to White-Ra (we talked today, he is all for it!), and we will release the answers on the website.

Links to previously released sets of answers:
Ask White-Ra #1 - (June 16, 2010)
Ask White-Ra #2: Strategy, Tactics, Gameplay - (June 23, 2010)
Ask White-Ra #3 - (July 4, 2010)

p.s.
It is probably a good idea to avoid very general questions, like "how do you play XvX". I think he is planning to release guides for things like that. More specific things like "what units do you answer infantry/tank/raven with" should be fine.

Btw, there are Russian, Ukrainian and English sections of the website, so make sure you are on the right one If you see something in Russian on the English section, that means the translation is coming soon.
They have also added an English forum section (when you go to forums its on the bottom) where you can ask white ra questions. Still I will use this post to release article-style answers, as opposed to forum posts

@White-Ra:
Any thoughts on the mothership?
We rarely see this unit in competitive games but I'm sure there's a way to implement it, after all Recall is a very powerful spell with a lot of potential.

@White-ra Do you have a URL for your site?
But seriously, what is the URL?
-Question, what do you think about when you are sitting down about to play a big game at a tournament?

@White-Ra
With the first phase of Beta complete, what changes (if any) would you like to see for the Protoss before the game is released? Are you satisfied with the general balance between the 3 races?
When you are prepared, there's no such thing as pressure.

@white-ra
who do you think are the strongest players of each race and region? How do the regions compare to each other skill-wise?

how do you manage being a professional gamer while having a wife and multiple children?

(I'm not mocking, it's serious question. My bf and I game a lot and if he ever mentions children, I'm like "well, when would we feed them? there's no time!")

What do you do to practice? Do you only practice as Protoss, or do you use all three races to practice?

Do you think older players have a bigger chance of competing at the highest level than they used to in SC:BW?

Submitting all of the above questions, with the exception of 1 (take a wild guess..:D). Anywho keep em coming, if they won't get into this release, sure there will be another one
