l10f vs ghostWriter Set 16 Winner (Z)l10f:
"Now it's proven that I'm better in English, Korean, SC, and life in general"

(T)ghostWriter: "l10f you own me"

+ Show Spoiler +
NOTE: This thread has already been approved by ghostWriter. I respect him, and this thread is meant to be funny (even though it may not be)


[image loading]


- How do you feel about winning yet another match against ghostWriter?
▲ The former C+ noob didn't have any chance against my C- epicness. Did you know that my nickname is Jaedong? My ZvP and ZvT are best you can find in Rockland County, which is about the same size as Seoul.

- So is your head-to-head record against ghostWriter very good?
▲ Yeah, I always win against it, I think it's now... 16-0? I don't have that good of a memory, but I think I won every match. I could be wrong, but the past doesn't matter. What's important is that I owned him so badly this match.

- Is that you in the picture?
▲ Of course it's me! It's my facebook profile pic as well. I'm so much like Jaedong that you wouldn't be able to tell the difference if we stood next to each other. Of course, our playing style is very similar as well

- Your translating skills seems to be on Jaedong's level as well
▲ I've lived in Korea for 10 years, then in America for 7 years. That's the perfect combination for translating from Korean to English.

- You've been translating a lot of interviews lately
▲ Yes, but the sad part is that the last 7 interviews I translated got less comments than ghostWriter's CJ vs SKT interview. That doesn't mean he's better though, that American-born boy will never be able to surpass my true Korean abilities. Of course everyone knows it doesn't matter how many comments you get on your work, but how well you do it that matters.

- Aren't you being a little rude? He's a lot older than you
▲ Rude? I think not. His mental capabilities are at the same level, if not lower, than mine. I'm just speaking the truth here. I got 30/30 on the sample mensa test while he only got 26/30.

[image loading]

Is that l10f.. or Jaedong.. None can tell the difference


- So how and when did you find out about TeamLiquid?
▲ I first came to this site because my friend introduced me to the StarCraft Professional scene. He showed me this cool youtube channel called jon747 (baezzi) and I found about this site there. I didn't register for a while though.

- Why did you join Teamliquid? What was it like back then?
▲ I joined TeamLiquid because I felt like it at that moment. It was a very memorable day. It wasn't until a long time later that I actually posted though. It was the most epic post of epic posts in the history of epic posts. It was on Fantasy R3 of last season.

- Wow that's a very excellent post! What other amazing posts did you make?
▲ I wrote this really cool guide on using stasis on workers.

- Is it true that you have been banned before?
▲ That is absolutely not true as I only make quality posts such as this one:

Nice troll thread


- That is one amazing post. Why did you start translating?
▲ I started because I was bored. I had time to waste and nothing to do. My life felt too repetitive and I wanted to try something new for once. My first translation looks really bad when I look back at it now, I think I've improve a bit.

- Do you still translate because you're bored?
▲ No, now I translate to bring information to those who can't read Korean. I really don't like it when I can't read some other language and it frustrates me. That's why I translate so others won't feel that frustration.

[image loading]


- How do you feel about Korea? Can you tell us any interesting stories?
▲ I haven't been to Korea since I came to USA until last summer. It was right before I started the translations, so I didn't know that many people from TL. I wanted to go watch one of the matches, but I was too busy visiting relatives. If I go to Korea again I will definitely meet Jaedong and kidnap him.

- You seem like an hardcore Jaedong fan
▲ Yes. Jaedong is the best player ever and he will always be until SC progaming ends.

- You said before that you were the best in Rockland County. Were there any good players that originated from there?
▲ Of course! both F.ree[gm] and B.iSu[Shield] lives in Rockland County. I am 9-1 against f.ree in our last 10 matches. Our county has a lot of great StarCraft players, with myself at the top.

- Since you are such a great player, do you mind sharing your replays? or livestreaming your games?
▲ I would love to share my replays, if anyone is interested, PM me. I would love to livestream too, but my computer is from 2002, and it will explode if I try.

- It feels like we've covered just about everything. What else would you like to say?
▲ I want to thank all the TeamLiquid members for always supporting me. I hope to continue translating interviews, at least until the end of 09-10 season. I will try my best to not fall too far behind. Thanks everyone!

Now I will take any questions from the audience!

Could you give me some tips on how to have such an amazing zvt as yourself???

Also, I hear that when you play tvz, your play would make even the standard protoss on ICCUP call foul/dirty. Can you shed some light on this matter?

Of course the way to play ZvT is to go standard 3 hatchery mutas then focus only on those mutalisks that you forget to upgrade Lurker Aspect, so you're forced to tech to hive quickly and get imbalisks.

I think my TvZ can be best explained by this replay:

It's a replay of me playing against this player "harmtaroadun" on iccup.

Awesome interview! I have a couple of questions.

Would you be interested in an upcoming NYC LAN, or is that too far away? Also, how do you feel against randomers on iCCup as a Zerg?
Venture Capital is better off spent on lottery tickets rather than investing in E-Sports; you'll get a far better return. The difference is simple: Koreans are tryharding at the game, foreigners are tryharding in real-life.

When you were born, did your parents know you would become so gosu at life?

I don't think I can make it unless I have a ride there and back, sorry! I don't mind people playing random on iCCup

Yes, of course, I was born with a robe on and light coming out of my eyes. There was an earthquake and a dragon rose to the skies when I was born.

On a serious note you shouldve made it Konadora and not ghostwriter, so we can here about his BO loses.

Will you destroy everyone in 2010?

But I haven't talked to Konadora that much so I couldn't ask him if I could bash him on my 1k thread. ghostwriter is like my BFF on TL though.

I will destroy everyone in 2010 if (Z)sAviOr wins this msl

Does ghostWriter's superior ICC rank haunt you at nights?
