4K^ToD speaks about SC2!

blizzcon, starcraft 2, tod

The Blizzcon 2007 event ended last Saturday with the grand finals of the Battle.net Season V competition, and the StarCraft tournament. Many great players like Korea, South MYM]Moon or Norway 4K^Creolophus, who won the the Battle.net Season V tournament, attended the Blizzcon, which was held in Anaheim. All of these progamers played and tested the new Blizzard Blockbuster, StarCraft II!



Among these tester was also France Human 4K^ToD, who is one of the best human players in Warcraft 3 and managed to win the Blizzard Invitational some months ago. Now the guys from France esportsfrance caught their compatriot and asked him a few questions about StarCraft II.

Here is a little snippet of the interview:

Which unit were you the most amazed by?

The Stalkers I think, the cooldown is really short, and they teleport near instantly, and are quite fast to mass, quite like Dragoons, hence in all our games, there were quite a lot of them in action. The Immortals, too, cause they practically feel nothing when attacked by a tank.. I wanted to play oldschool, with 2 factories in my first games and I took a good beating against the Immortals. At one time we had the middle of a map under control with a mass tank with Nilk, and then a bunch of Immortals arrived and slaughtered everything and Nilk made me laugh when he said "those fucking immortals"

The translated version of this interview which was made in french can be found here.

still a douchebag...... he talked about a bunch of differents units, expanding while harssing...and compared it to elf and hinted it being easy when human just expands and towers? and he descirbed human as the more skillful race.... not to be biased im sure... although I already can see that base defense wont be a big issue in sc2.

wc3 really has a huge issue with the base defense... because the game is focused on micro so much, the max population is set only at 90, and since most units cost 2-4 food, a player can only have about 25-35 units at a time AT MOST not including the workers, but there is unlimited number of towers u can build, so sometimes u see more towers than the trees on the map... and unlike in sc, in wc3 u have to send EVERYTHING in order to take down the towered expo, so in the meanwhile ur opponent can easily counterattack u or come defend the expo, and once you're forced to retreat after losing half ur army, all the hu has to do is guard the expo for 1 min while the towers are being built again....and this is why i'm looking so much to sc2, where towers won't be a problem at all

and tod can really stop whining about nelf now NE is good but so is HU and obviously it would piss anyone off if they lost to non-moving towers, while only a select few (like tod himself) would get so pissed off after losing to bears or dotts........

Don't compare apples with oranges. This interview just proves there is a huge gap between the two different worlds of Warcraft and Starcraft; not to mention, the lingo they use.


Note: Immortals were well balanced at Blizzcon.

Nice interview. Always good to hear what the SC and WC3 pros have to say about SC2. Kinda sad how they made the game more noob friendly =X
