CJ Entus will be playing a showmatch against a squad of Japanese players on Monday, Oct 14 9:30am GMT (GMT+00:00).
The lineup is going to be as follows.
Team Japan vs. CJ Entus 1SET Albion(P) < Akilon Wastes > BByong(T) 2SET vaisravana(Z) < Bel’shir Vestige LE > herO(P) 3SET breek(Z) < Frost LE > Bong(P) 4SET ENZA(T) < Polar Night LE > effOrt(Z) 5SET Holon(Z) < Whirlwind L > sKyHigh(T)
The Korean stream will feature Gorush, Coach Park, Trot, Effort, Hero[join], and Hydra. There will be a Japanese stream as well! No info on English streams so far.
Also, head coach Park says there will be a reveal of some kind of special parody music video featuring the CJ guys. Here's a sneak peak:
I'll be quite interested to listen to the Japanese stream. If nothing else, it'll be interesting to see what terminology SC2 takes on in Japanese, because as far as I know there is no official Japanese version. Like, will they call Marines 海兵 or マリン? Stuff like that. I tried to explain SC2 to a few Japanese friends once but found myself sort of making up the vocabulary as I went. >_>
Also go Team Japan despite the fact I think they'll get steamrolled. T_T

ENZA was one if the several Japanese wc3 players. He played NE. There were several though.
Also Japan had some BW pro gamers, but I don't know too much about them.
Pretty sure Japan had some reaally good non-Blizzard rts gamers too.
All I remember about Japanese BW was that Jaedong played one (kuroa maybe?) at a WCG and said that he "played like the computer."
You're thinking a guy called zim at WCG where he race switched at very last second and tried to cheese him, spectacularly failed and jaedong remarked "It was like I was playing against AI"

マリン、シーカーミサイル、プリズム、ボイド・レイ、etc.
Wasn't sure. I suspected they would for the more exotic stuff but didn't know if they'd stick to Japanese words for stuff that exists e.g. Barracks or Factory.
