readmore.de: Prior to the tournament, QXC claimed to have practiced ten hours a day. Yet, he didn't even finish top-8 in the end, completely missing out on the prize money. You were the one who beat him in the upper bracket. Do you think he just got unlucky, or did everyone else play even more than him? Or is the game still so fresh that training is trumped by talent, maybe? ajtls: It's fresh enough that any SC1 players can come over and shove-aside the people that haven't been playing since beta. I don't believe in mass practice, I believe in talent, and I believe in accelerated learning through studying replays, over playing games. I can learn 10x faster out of 1 of my own replays, win or loss, than I can if I play 20 ladder games. I continue to get better with every game I play, since I've only been playing since retail, I don't think I'm as good as I should be, but yeah. ajtls and qxc didn't even play in Raleigh. O_o qxc lost to HuK in the upper bracket. | ||

He does have the whole mindset that BW players are better and if they convert will still dominate but is he really in the wrong? He is also extremely confident and gets let down very easily if he loses. I know his past but im looking at SC2 as a whole new game for him. That includes reputation. Do you expect a cheater to act differently? Do you think he's going to talk in a deep voice and give you menacing looks? "Hey guys he acts normal around other people, I think he should have a fresh start, he's A okay in my book." | ||

readmore.de: A few days ago, Blizzard uncovered its plans for the first balance patch. Anything you have to say about that? Are you content with the timing and the changes? Do you care about balance at all? ajtls: It's dumb, but not bad. Reapers will barely be affected, my BO is still viable in TvZ, so is every reaper build; instead of having 10 reapers, you'll have 9. The tank nerf is just silly, too. They should've waited much longer to make a balance patch, because surprise surprise, the players are learning how to play the game, and Protoss is starting to dominate with unfair results. As well as, in Korea, Z's dont seem to have a problem with Terran. Haha , Terran complaining about Protoss' unfair results.... The irony | ||

Best matchup: TvZ Sounds like a bit of a cock but I guess he is young... however that excuse can only last for so long. Always nice to read an interview nonetheless. | ||

The whole silver v LS thing was just down right disappointing... | ||

No, I don't think he is wrong with holding the majority view of BW players being better and having more translatable skills. | ||

T_T Nobody thinks he deserves this. With a past like that , he doesn't even deserve to be on the same forums as us ... I mean come on, not to mention he acts like an arrogant prick. | ||
