Starcraft 2: Starcraft 2 discussion

By: PuertoRican - Published February 08, 2009 at 2:30 PM EST - Writer Archive
Starcraft 2 discussion with Artosis, Tasteless, and NonY
An in depth discussion on Starcraft 2 was held at a local coffee shop by the resident gosu’s here in Korea, Artosis, Tasteless, and NonY.

The actual video is 25 minutes long and covers many different things that people have been talking about, are worried about, and think might happen when the game is released.

eSports is also another major thing covered in the video as all three of them are in the middle of eSports here in Korea, so this will be the first time people actually get a more hands on advice from a non-Korean on what the potentially Starcraft 2 eSports scene will look like.

Artosis is a 6 time WCG USA finalist and 2 time grand finalist, he currently lives in Korea and commentates Starcraft, you can see his work at SCForAll.com.

Tasteless is a past WCG USA finalist and currently lives in Korea commentating on Starcraft, you can see his work at GomTV.net.

NonY is a past WCG finalist and the 2008 WCG USA champion, he currently lives in Korea as only 1 of 2 foreigners on a professional Starcraft team.

Partial Summary

- Life of Starcraft 1 pro scene when Starcraft 2 comes out.
- Thoughts on a Starcraft mod to compete with DOTA (Warcraft 3 mod)
- Auto mining and MBS.
- Future plans of the 3 people talking on what they will do when the games comes out, whether they will compete or be a caster for example.
- Likes and dislikes about the units and maps from Starcraft 2. Stalker, blinking, units and their damage ability, length of time it takes to get to tech units compared to Starcraft 1.
- Thoughts about whether or not the current Korean league format is best for Starcraft 2, or if the current Warcraft 3 tournament and league format is best to use.
