In part two of a translated video interview with SK Gaming the 'God of Protoss' and two time GSL champion (P)MC spoke about the four great SC2 players ((Z)NesTea, (T)MVP, (T)MarineKing and himself) as well as PvP and foreigners.

Topics discussed:
-Whether MC would like to face (T)MVP in a final to decide who is the best player overall.
-Does MC consider (T)MarineKing his rival?
-What causes MC to declare "Zerg is IMBA"?
-Will (T)MarineKing ever win a GSL?
-How tough was (P)White-Ra when they played at DreamHack?
-Which race does MC consider Europeans better at than Koreans?
-Why is MC so good at PvP?
-Would he like to face (P)NaNiwa?

The interview can be watched at SK Gaming.

Oh I get it. MVP threw his up and down matches so he could go down to Code A and avoid MC and now MC is throwing his group play matches to go after him.

MC doesn't say "MVP is dodging me" what he says can be translated as something like "Whenever we're in a tournament luck has it that we don't end up in the same bracket and if we do, one of us always gets knocked out early".

Yes, MVP is the reason why MC lost against MKP.

That is what they are saying, just a little misleading because they make it sound purposeful, but no player can control the brackets.

True, cus yeah if you read just the title you would get the impression that MVP is trying to dodge MC on purpose, just thought I'd point that out. ZERG IMBA lol! That makes me feel slightly better.

It all makes sense now!

But they also have an agreement, to make sure MKP never wins a title.

Nice interview, not sure i agree korean terran are weaker than EU, but EU definitely have some really good terrans. Nani vrs MC would be awesome Huk actually said MC has really good off-race too so it wouldnt be a shock if he could own protoss with zerg.

kind of a misleading title/translation about the MVP thing.
should be changed to stop people getting the wrong impression (as seen already above)

Love him or hate him, I have to say MC is probably the Korean pro who's reached out the most to the foreign community. It might just be because he's so heavily spotlighted, but even the Koreans who've competed in a few foreigner tournaments (Nada, Rainbow, Boxer, etc) seldom do interviews as regularly as MC does.

Cool interview, although I find his comment about telling White-Ra how best to play PvP and that's part of why he did so well funny ;D

Artosis does it all the time.

And we all know sensationalist titles get more views.

Although I do find it interesting that he thinks Euro Terrans are strong than KR Terrans.

It might have something to do with him being closer to liquid players.

The title comes directly from the translated text the translator, who I'm told speaks fluent Korean and knows MC personally, gave to me. There are so many other interesting comments made by MC in this interview, in my opinion, that the problem isn't the title of the post.

Rather it's a problem that so many people seem to want to discuss the title rather than watch the interview and discuss the content of the interview. It's equivalent to someone debating the title of a book at a reading group rather than actually reading the book.
