(Z)KT Rolster_Crazy-Hydra

[image loading]

Source: Daily eSports

How do you feel about winning?

Ending the year on a good note made me feel good. I even got the honor of doing an interview so I am happy.

Did you not get a chance to do interviews last season?

Not a lot. It's because even though I won a lot, those victories didn't really hold much of an impact. When I was winning the team was losing. So for the upcoming season, I switched my ID to just Crazy. And just like my name suggests, I tried to play my game today as if a crazy person was behind the computer.

Has anything changed for this upcoming season?

I am trying to change my game style to a more aggressive one. I see that I am kind of greedy but if I want to be satisfied with myself then I need to practice more. I want to have a good record for 2013. I also will show fun games.

You grabbed hyvaa on Tal'Darim.

Up till now, I hadn't really beaten that many players through an aggressive build order. Rather, I tried to beat them with persistence.

Round 2 will be KotH style.

Practice all three race match ups is going well. If I get sent out I want to practice even more and grab a good record. I think I can do well.

How many wins do you think you'll take this season?

I feel like I should try to grab at least twenty victories. I should try to get at least one more victory than last season right?

Secret to KT Rolster being first?

I think we've been doing well since our we're number one celebration after winning against Samsung (laughs). My teammates are all kinds of skilled. BarrackS had a chance to get sent out as the sixth man but we ended up winning before he could get sent out. I'm sure he'll do well the next chance he receives.

Anything else you would like to say?

Today's concept was all about speed. The game, the interview, I tried to do everything with speed. I hope the fans all have a happy new year. Lastly, I want to thank my teammates on a job well done and the coaching staff.

A 2013 wish you want to come true?

I want a girlfriend (laughs).



P.S. if you've got time, could you guys check out my 100th interview translation thread celebration blog? http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=390801

"So for the upcoming season, I put a Crazy in front of my ID. And just like my name suggests, I tried to play my game today as if a crazy person was behind the computer."

This doesn't really make sense. He seems to have just changed his name from Crazy_Hydra to Crazy.

Why, I think they should be able to if they want to. Like almost all of 8th changed their IDs, Jaedong changed his ID. I don't see what the big deal is.

Why, I think they should be able to if they want to. Like almost all of 8th changed their IDs, Jaedong changed his ID. I don't see what the big deal is.


Because:

1. TLPD links to their old ID, confusing people who see them TLPDized on the forums, Liquipedia also lists their old ID for many players. How are you going to know who to look up if you see Cure on the screen, if all his information is under Speed on liquipedia/tlpd?

2. Calling a player something different than you have for years is annoying and unnecessary

3. The players will lose fans by changing their ID, to people who don't follow the scene very closely they know a player by his ID, not his looks or name. ( in the case of Koreans at least ) If you change your ID suddenly It's like a new player instead of someone you thought you knew, of course for the people who follow the scene closely It's not a big deal but casual fans are important too. I actually don't know all the new ID's of the Team 8 players off hand, especially if they were lesser known before they changed it. Alone changed his ID to True or Savage or something, the casters in Proleague didn't even know what to call him. You don't want an identity crisis with your players. The biggest thing is building a fanbase is harder when you change your ID often, how many people are going to know who Team 8's Cure is? They might know Speed because of his games in the past, but he's not notable enough to know that he changed his ID unless you specifically looked it up.

4. Usually they change it to something worse than it was previously, baby to ty, wooki to p7gab, bogus to innovation, jaehoon to argo.

5. The Korean fans know the players by their names and not their ID's, this is why It's not a big deal for them to change their ID. But, foreign fans are not the same way and will latch onto an ID and build a players identity around. For example, the Bogus, man Meme that Major started on SOTG. I feel like when Koreans change their ID they just do it because they're bored or something, there's no real reason for it.

This is one of the reasons why I'm sad that Tossgirl retired.

She switched to Terran but still kept the name Tossgirl... like a boss!

Of course, Tossgirl hasn't done really well for a while (in SC in general) but in SC2, she could have restored her passion and became a bonjwa (totally).

I think the problem was she had no rival (she became Tossgirl because she wanted to take out her sister and her rival... ZergGirl!).
