The Hot Seat powered by Secretlab

Hey everyone! We’ve enjoyed a lot of interviews from The Hot Seat over these past few TSLs, but for Shopify TSL 7, we’d love to give an opportunity to the community to ask your questions too. If anyone has questions for the players we’re interviewing for TSL 7, please post them in this thread or tweet them to @TLNet and we’ll pick our favorites! If your question is chosen, we’ll enter you into a raffle to win your very own Secretlab chair once TSL 7 ends!

Remember, we’re looking for fun and unique questions that can be asked during the interviews!

A tsunami is barreling towards you. Do you A) run away in terror B) accept your fate and allow it to consume you or C) Dive right in and try and get on top of it?

For Zest:

Why is he so good at playing on Beckett Industries? Every other Protoss vetoes that map all the time, but he doesn’t and has a good winrate on it.

For TIME:

We often don’t get to hear a lot about Chinese Starcraft, so which players in the Chinese scene does he think are underrated/up-and-coming?

For Dark or Clem or Cure or SpeCial or TIME or Armani:

How does your team prepare for the World Team League? Do you decide your lineups as a group? Is there a lot of metagaming around who goes on which maps and matches to counter the opposing team’s lineup?

For Zest: Are you exempt of military and if not when will you have to go? (I’ve heard rumor about some kind of heart condition and I am curious)

For everyone else: If your Starcraft 2 carreer ever come to an end, what do you see yourself do later in life?

I’m also giving my support to ZigguratOfUr World Team League question.

Trap: You went from losing many finals in a row to winning all the ones you play, what do you think changed in you?

Cure: We saw you playing great against Reynor and Solar at the Next Masters but in the GSL you lost 3-0 to Ragnarok. Why do you think it is so difficult for you currently to play offline, if we already saw you being a finalist in a GSL?

1) What has been the greatest challenge for you personally when Starcraft transitioned from offline to online play?
2) What difference do you think it has made for tournaments?
3) Who has been most influential to you as a Starcraft player?

More fun ones:
1) What are your favourite snacks while playing Starcraft?
2) Show us your desktop wallpaper (if that’s appropriate…)
3) What keyboard/mouse do you use for your setup?
4) What do you do for fun outside of Starcraft?
5) What is your favourite movie/band/TV show for all time?

Why is the GM ladder so full of Protoss (~50% on EU, >42% World and at the top levels most likely even higher percentages)?

For Reynor: do you think that, despite being the current world champion, you are still undervalued with respect to people like serral or maru?

For any Protoss player left in tournament:

Would you agree it is harder to have consistent results as a protoss player compared to the other races, considering how the Protoss race is designed?

1. Who is the best player in this tournament and why is it you?

2. What do you wish people would ask you more about?

3. Least favourite interview question ever?

4. If you could choose one classic sports event for a showmatch of SC2, what event would that be and who would you play it against?

For Zoun

With Stats gone plus Zest, PartinG and Trap seeing military service on the horizon, are you proud to be labelled the “next Korean Protoss hope?” What kind of pressure does that bring?

For Serral:

You and Maru have gone through stretches of invincibility within your respective regions (and for you globally in 2018) to the point that quarterfinal and even semifinal results are deemed “an off day” for both of you. Is that frustrating or flattering? Maybe both?

When you’re golfing, what’s the best part of your game? The driver? Fairway irons? Chipping? Putting?

For anyone:

Would you consider anonymously sending in a replay to Harstem for “Is it IMBA or do I suck?”

Which caster would you want on your team in a 2v2/Archon mode?

Reynor practiced for IEM by going 1v5 Archon mode. How many casters would it take on one team to beat someone on the level of Maru/Serral/Clem/Rogue etc?

Rotti just got his carrier statue. What’s his next purchase and why should it be a custom built Phoenix?

You win a tournament, and instead of a cash prize/trophy you win an unlimited supply (soup-lie) of one gaming accessory (mouse, headphones, speakers…). What are you hoping it is?

Classic and herO are coming back soon, and DRG, ByuN, Armani and others have proven it’s possible to get back to being relevant in SC2 while some have struggled and others have full blown retired after returning. Thoughts on how well they’ll do?

If you could add one unit from brood war into the game, which would you prefer?
