采访：TL对estro人族Idra

bly

不久以前一位18岁的美国小孩Greg Fields, ID: Idra, 取得了韩国estro战队在北美举办的选版赛冠军，随后受到estro战队邀请。两星期前Idra正式抵达韩国，开始追求他的韩国职业星际选手梦。以下是TL对Idra的采访。


Describe the practice games and how you are doing in each matchup.
Idra: TvP is my best matchup vs the progamers by far, I'm having to completely rework my TvZ because Korean style zvt is so much different(better) than non koreans. I'm learning TvT pretty quickly given how bad I was in it before coming here. I'm doing about as well as can be expected overall, I've won some games but am still definitely the worst player in the house. I can see myself beginning to improve though.

描述一下你的练习赛和每个种族对抗的结果。

Idra: 面对跟我练习的职业选手，TvP肯定是我最好的对抗。韩国风格ZvT跟非韩很不同（更好），因此我被迫要重新改造我的TvZ。TvT按照来韩国之前的烂水平来说还是算学的蛮快的。（Idra以前是打TvZ, TvP, ZvT/PvT的）我想我的表现算是在最乐观的预测中吧。我赢过几盘但很明显还是战队里最菜的，不过我觉得我会有长进。


Are they happy with your skills and attitude so far?
Idra: Yes, the best part of the whole thing so far has been the other players and coach/manager. They're all incredibly nice and have gone out of their way to make the transition easy for me and to make me feel at home. I'm not really sure what their opinion of me is because im not sure they would tell me if they thought I really sucked, but they seem pretty satisfied so far.

战队对你的水平和态度满意么？

Idra: 满意，这个经历的亮点是我的队友和教练。他们都非常友好，为了使我能轻易的过度这段时间和适应新环境，他们都付出了很多。我不能确定他们对我的感想是设么因为即使他们觉得我很菜的话也可能不会告诉我，但是表面上看起来他们还是算满意的。

Daniel lee speaks english, so he probably helped with the transition greatly. How's your Korean coming along?
Idra: I'm not learning it as quickly as I would have liked, our free time is broken up into half-hour/hour segments so theres not alot of time to sit down and study and I'm able to communicate with the players pretty well as is so its not a pressing need. But I am picking up vocabulary just through everyday conversation.

Daniel Lee （estro的教练）会英文，因此他肯定帮了你很多。你的韩文是否有所进步？

Idra: 我的韩文进展没有理想中快。我们的休闲时间是分成半小时和一小时的，所以一般没有很多时间学习。再加上我跟队友沟通的还算不错，所以学习韩文的需求也不是很大。

They are allowing you time to play TSL? That is nice of them.
Idra: They're not making an exception for it, I just play a bit in my free time to relax. As for the final tournament if need be I can skip some practice time because they think the exposure and money is worth-while.

他们让你打TSL,对你很好啊。

Idra: 他们没有为此做出例外。我为了放松，用自己休闲时间在打。但是如果最后TSL奖金赛需要额外时间的话他们会让我用些练习时间去参加，因为他们认为为了比赛的知名度和奖金是值得的。


What are the biggest differences between Korean and foreigner playstyles in the practice games you've played so far?
Idra: In general just cleaner mechanics, you almost never catch their macro slip and major micro mistakes are rare. But like I said the biggest difference is the zergs, the muta micro and hive tech useage is so much better than foreign zergs its hard to believe. To give some perspective I think tvz was widely considered my best matchup outside Korea, I'm pretty sure its my worst statistically in practice games here.

根据你的练习经验，你觉得韩国和非韩风格最大的区别是设么？

Idra: 很多还是基本功，他们钱总是能控制的很好，而且操作失误也很罕见。但是还是像我刚刚说的一样，最大区别是虫族，韩国虫族的飞龙操作和3级基地科技应用比非韩虫族要好的不可思议。举个例子，我来韩国之前，我的TvZ被认为是我最好的对抗，但是在这里按练习成绩来说TvZ成我最差的对抗了。

How do they approach practice games differently?
Idra: Repetition mainly, when they have a specific match to practice for they play nothing but that one map for days on end, down to memorizing building placements for the different spots and things like that. As far as I know foreigners don't even go that in depth for WCG, and Koreans do it for every match.

他们的练习方法有设么不同？

Idra: 反复练。他们为比赛练习的时候会只打某个地图，甚至背下所有出生点的建筑分配位置。据我所知非韩玩家为了wcg准备的都没这么充分，而韩国选手为每场比赛都这样准备.

Do you like the food?
Idra: I'm still adjusting to the new diet, alot of flavors and stuff I'm not used to. I had trouble eating alot of it at first but its slowly getting better. A lot of its good, just new.

喜欢韩国菜么？

Idra: 我还在调整，有很多胃口我不适应。刚来的时候我不能吃很多但是现在慢慢好了。很多东西都很好吃，只是谋生而已。

Everyone is eagerly anticipating you showing up on the eStro bench. What are the chances of that happening anytime soon?
Idra: As soon as I earn it. I'm still an amateur at the moment, once I pass courage league I'll be eligible to play for proleague, and then its just a matter of doing well enough to get a spot on the roster.

很多人都期待看到你坐在estro的替补席上，在不久的将来有机会发生么？

Idra: 如果我能挣得到机会的话。我现在还是业余选手，必须先通过勇气比赛（韩国职业选手执照比赛）才能打战队联赛，然后如果队内表现好的话就能上大名单了。

Who does the best on inter-team practices? UpMagic?
Idra: I don't know really. We don't keep track of practice game records and the best players dont tend to practice against each other a whole lot. They all have their own proleague matchs to prepare for and so tend to play against some of the lesser pros. If I had to guess, probably upmagic or goodfriend.

谁的队内练习成绩是最好的? Upmagic? (Sea.Upmagic, 신희승 Shin Hee Seung)

Idra: 我不是很清楚。我们不记战绩的，而且对内最强的选手们很少跟互相练习。他们都要为自己的战队联赛比赛做准备所以他们一般跟对内比较菜点的人打。但是我猜最好的应该是upmagic和goodfriend (이병민 Lee Byung Min).

Who are you friends with so far?
Idra: Well everyones been really friendly, but I spend most of my time with the B team players, since we practice in the same room. Nsp_Fancy Melon[3.33] By.Puma Younga[Kal] Suny[fOu] Sea.Same. Fancy speaks English very well and I sit next to Suny, so I've gotten to know those two in particular pretty well.

你跟那些选手最友好？

Idra: 所有人都很友好。我大多是时间都是跟B队选手在一起的，因为我们都在同一个房间练习。有Nsp_Fancy Melon[3.33] By.Puma Younga[Kal] Suny[fOu] Sea.Same。 Nsp_Fancy的英语很好，还有我跟Suny[fOu]坐在一起，所有跟他们两人尤其熟悉。

Is everyone excited after their 2-0 start to Proleague?
Idra: Ya, we're currently tied for first and if we beat MBC next match we'll be in first by ourselves. Everyones really happy, especially considering last season's performance.

大家对战队在战队联赛2-0的开始感觉兴奋么？

Idra: 恩，我们现在跟MBC并列第一名，下周如果战胜他们的话就独居第一了。大家都很高兴，尤其想到上个赛季的成绩。（estro上赛季倒数第二）

Did you go out drinking with them yet?
Idra: Nah the team is only allowed to drink on our free day and I'm not allowed to go to a club until Daniel says so anyway.

跟他们喝过酒么?
Idra: 没有，我们只能在自己的休假日喝酒，而且Daniel（教练）说没有他的同意还不能去club.

TL.net and the foreign community have been eagerly awaiting updates from you!
Idra: Sorry to those who request a blog about the whole thing from me, theres just not really anything to write about. We practice everyday, all day.

自从你去韩国后TL和非韩星际界都在等你的消息！
Idra: 我想所有要我写博客的人道歉，实在没有设么值得写的东西。我们天天练习，练一整天。

Its fun though so far?
Idra: very fun.

好玩？
Idra: 很好玩

We are excited to see a new improved Idra for TSL. We have so few Terrans!
Idra: Thanks. Ya I'll qualify, I don't have time to cherry pick or work my way into the top 16, but if I get close to 48th ill start playing more.

我们在TSL上期待看到一个全新的Idra. 我们人族很少！
Idra: 谢谢。我肯定会通过资格赛，我没时间打到前16，但是如果我离第48比较近的话我会打的更多的。（TSL上前48进奖金赛）

Have you kept in touch with media guys at all?
Idra: We talk on msn/iccup most nights during my free time.

你还在跟media （idra在外国的战队）的人保持联系么?
Idra: 晚上有空的时候我会跟他们在msn和iccup上聊。

Do the estro players play iccup for practice now that the maps are in?
Idra: I think the maps just changed and most of them aren't aware of it yet, but a surprising number of them have iccup accounts so ya I expect they'll start playing it more.

Iccup引进新地图后有estro的选手在上面练习么？

Idra: Iccup地图刚刚更新过但是他们绝大多数人都还不知道，不过很多人有Iccup账号所有我预测他们会逐渐到上面去练习。


Good luck and I hope you pass courage!
Idra: thanks

希望你能通过勇气比赛，一帆风顺！
Idra: 谢谢
