DarkElf and (T)RuBy takes 1st and 2nd place in intra-team evaluation match!
[image loading]



Coach Yoo of ACE told daily e-sports in an interview via phone on the 11th that the new recruits are showing a lot of potential.

After enlisting for the Air Force on May 25th, (T)DarkElf and (T)RuBy began practicing with the team in August.

When the seniors came back after a 14 night 15 day trip, (T)RuBy and (T)DarkElf placed first and second, placing higher than (P)Reach, (P)Anytime, (Z)YellOw, (Z)GoRush, and others.

According to Coach Yoo, (T)DarkElf and (T)RuBy still have their progaming senses and will appear in the 09-10 season coming up in October.

Coach Yoo said, "If (T)DarkElf and (T)RuBy show determination, I think we can place higher than 11th or 12th in the next season"

ACE will be recruiting one more player in September. (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=99831)

공군 에이스 이병 민찬기와 김성기가 고참들을 위협하는 무서운 존재로 성장하고 있다.

공군 유성렬 감독은 11일 데일리e스포츠와의 전화 인터뷰를 통해 "합류한 지 얼마 되지 않은 이병들이 최고의 기량을 선보이고 있어 매우 고무적"이라고 밝혔다.

5월25일 공군에 입대한 민찬기와 김성기는 프로리그 08-09 시즌이 완료된 8월부터 본격적으로 에이스에 합류해 합동 연습에 들어갔다. 선배들이 시즌을 마치고 14박15일의 장기 휴가를 마치고 복귀한 9월부터 시작된 내부 평가전에서 민찬기와 김성기는 박정석, 오영종, 홍진호, 박태민 등 선배들을 제치고 당당히 1, 2위를 차지했다.

유 감독에 따르면 민찬기와 김성기는 2개월 간의 기초 군사 훈련에도 불구하고 감각을 그대로 유지하고 있어 오는 10월부터 진행되는 09-10 시즌 주축 멤버 자리를 굳히고 있다고. 08-09 시즌 맹활약한 선배들과 두 명의 테란 신병이 힘을 합친다면 공군도 다른 팀에게 위협적인 존재가 될 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

유 감독은 "민찬기와 김성기가 신병다운 패기를 보여주고 고참의 노련미가 결합된다면 공군도 다음 시즌에는 11, 12위를 넘어설 수 있을 것"이라 말했다.

한편 공군은 9월 중순 신병 1명을 확정할 계획이다.

Makes sense, the more time you spend in ace the worse you get.

The ACE coach has always seemed so underachieving to me
I'll never forget how deliriously happy he always seemed when boxer won a game
Poor ACE players.

Both the above comments are pretty much universal truth...

I myself just hope all these ACE players could get back in their careers as they are done with their military service...

Uh, good news I suppose. Being the best on ACE is like getting good marks on a vision test.

They just look better compared to their ACE teammates than their former teammates.

Can't wait to see Ruby in action again. I'm really hoping he continues his career in ACE like players such as Oversky have, and returns to a solid team afterward. He's still really young, after all.
Oh, my eSports

I expected RuBy to be the best player on ACE when he joined, but DarkElf is a bit of a surprise. As long as XellOs still gets a good amount of playing time it's all good in my book.

Sweet. Sadly, ACE needs anything they can get. Hopefully they start performing a little better now.

Thanks for the translation.

As gamers age, ACE's talent pool will grow in size and strength, and the team will improve drastically. This is good news for their competitiveness in the upcoming PL season, especially because their Terran lineup was a bit lacking in the 08-09 PL.

This is going to be the greatest year if ACE can finish in a spot other than 12th

Anytime is debatable, but Reach and YellOw have definitely improved since they joined ACE imo. Those two were performing soooo poorly before they were recruited it's hard to argue they could have possibly gotten worse.
