【專訪】香港職業格鬥遊戲電競選手Humanbomb & 教練Kim Cheng

在香港玩「街機遊戲」而成名的人不多，而Humanbomb先生正正是其中一人。他透過哥哥Kim Cheng先生認識到《拳皇》，再由《拳皇》轉至《街頭霸王》，當中出席了不同大大小小的格鬥遊戲國際賽事。今次Humanbomb 將會帶同哥哥兼教練Kim Cheng一同接受訪問。

Humanbomb從小便喜歡玩格鬥遊戲，一直參與不同的賽事，直至參加在美國拉斯維加斯舉辦的「Evolution Championship Series 2012（EVO 2012）」，並羸得這個堪稱世界規模最大的格鬥遊戲比賽的第2名。之後，他便開始有公司投資及資助出賽，算是正式走上電競之路。Humanbomb一直抱著「永不放棄」的信念，堅持著這變幻莫測的電競生涯，因為每個遊戲版本都會有所不同，選手必須重新調整使用不同的角色及策略。他表示，較早前最喜歡使用春日野櫻（Sakura），因為這個角色在《街頭霸王4》時最有名，而到《街頭霸王5》這一版本時，便更喜歡使用春麗（Chun-Li）。

Kim Cheng表示，其實任何人都可以加入電競行業，但一直堅持這條路的人很少。現時沒有什麼公司及政府機構主力支持及管理這行業。如果時下香港年青人想成為職業電競選手，除了要有公司的支持外，還必須要有一定的實力、懂得自我檢討，以及自律的能力。Humanbomb補充，年青人可以先完成學業，不要只顧著電競。

對於香港如何加強推廣電競行業，Kim Cheng認為，香港政府應該牽頭舉辦更多本地職業聯賽，讓大眾及傳媒認識電競行業。在傳媒的報導下，改變大眾對其負面的想法，讓他們明白電競也是職業的一種。其次，電競需要配合其他不同的配套，如舉辦電競賽事的地點、專門撰寫電競資訊的傳媒等等。
