Korean Air OSL Ro36
Winner: (T)fOrGG
“My OSL goal is to win”


[image loading]


Q: It’s your first OSL Ro16 appearance
A: I always wanted to advance to OSL main leagues, so I feel really good. My group had two Zergs and I thought it would be easier for me. Whenever I won a game, I didn’t relax myself and tried my best, which resulted in good games.

Q: Why were you slumping in the OSL?
A: Beating two different people in the same day was really difficult. I thought it was hard for the player who came up all the way from preliminaries, but after I thought of it as a PC bang [Internet Cafe] preliminary, it became easy. In PC bang preliminary, I had to defeat 3 players, but here, I only had to win against 2 players, so I played comfortably and that led to good results.

Q: You’re doing well recently
A: I didn’t play like myself in the past, but I’m slowly getting the results now.

Q: Your goal for OSL
A: Ro8 is my lowest goal. My biggest goal is to go to the finals and receive the winner’s trophy.

Q: Your TvZ seemed perfect today
A: In the past, my TvZ’s been sloppy and I couldn’t make the correct decisions. However, lately, I gained the ability of reading the Zerg player’s mind. I kept thinking how I can make it hard for the Zerg, and I think that’s how my record is improving.

Q: Your timing pushes were wonderful
A: In practice, I prepared it for the timing right before Mutalisks. My win rate was really good with it, so I knew it would work on these games.

Q: You seem like you are reviving
A: Recently as I play my games, I’m getting my senses back as the “Time Attacker” in the past. I’m confident that I will show good games in the future.

Q: Anyone you want to face in Ro16?
A: I think in Ro16 anyone would be a hard opponent to face. I don’t think I’ll ask Flash to help me out, but that may change according to the situation (laughs).

Q: Your TvP isn’t that good recently
A: I always hated practicing for TvP. In the past, I played TvP with timing pushes, but players have gotten used to it and they block it so well now. I think I will have to make a timing push that overrides their immunity.

Q: Anything else?
A: (Z)815 helped me practice since last night, and I’m really thankful. I also thank my fans who came to cheer me on today.

Q 생애 첫 16강에 진출했다.
A 스타리그에 꼭 가고 싶었기 때문에 기분이 너무 좋다. 조에 저그만 두 명이라 여태까지와 다르게 쉽게 올라갈 수 있을 것이라 생각했다. 경기를 이길 때마다 긴장감을 늦추지 않고 최선을 다했던 것이 좋은 경기를 펼칠 수 있었던 것 같다.

Q 그동안 스타리그에서 왜 부진했나.
A 하루에 두 명 이기는 방식이 너무 어려웠다. 예선부터 올라온 선수가 힘든 방식이라고 생각했는데 PC방 예선이라고 생각하니 쉽게 풀리더라. PC방 예선은 3명을 이겨야 하지만 스타리그는 2명 이기면 된다는 편안한 마음으로 경기를 준비하다 보니 좋은 결과가 나온 것 같다.

Q 최근 분위기가 좋다.
A 그동안 제 실력이 나오지 않았는데 최근 성적이 조금씩 나오는 것 같다.

Q 스타리그 목표가 있다면.
A 8강이 최소 목표다. 최고의 목표는 결승에 진출해 우승컵을 들어 올리는 것이다.

Q 오늘 저그전은 완벽했던 것 같다.
A 원래 예전 저그전 경기는 우왕좌왕 하면서 결단력을 내리지 못했다. 그런데 요즘은 저그 선수들의 생각을 읽는 능력이 생겼다. 어떻게 하면 저그가 까다로워 하는지 생각을 하다 보니 저그전 성적이 좋아지는 것 같다.

Q 타이밍 공격이 예술이었다.
A 연습 때 뮤탈리스크가 나오기 전 타이밍을 노리고 짜온 빌드다. 승률이 워낙 좋았기 때문에 오늘도 잘 통할 것이라 생각했다.

Q 최근 다시 살아나고 있는 분위기인데.
A 요즘 게임을 하면서 '타임 어태커'라 불렸던 예전과 비슷한 경기 감각을 되찾아 가고 있다. 앞으로 더욱 좋은 경기 보여줄 자신 있다.

Q 16강에서 붙고 싶은 선수가 있다면.
A 16강은 누굴 만나도 어려운 경기가 펼쳐질 것 같다. 그래서 딱히 (이)영호에게 부탁할 생각은 없지만 그날 상황에 따라 달라질 수도 있다(웃음).

Q 최근 프로토스전 성적이 좋지 않았다.
A 원래 프로토스전은 연습 하기도 싫어했을 정도였다. 예전에는 프로토스전에서 타이밍으로 승부를 봤는데 선수들이 면역이 생기다 보니 너무 잘 막히더라. 이제는 그것을 뛰어 넘는 타이밍 공격을 만들어야 할 것 같다.

Q 마지막으로 하고 싶은 말은.
A 어제 저녁부터 (배)병우형이 연습을 도와줬다. 정말 고맙다. 오늘 응원을 많이 와주신 팬들에게도 고마움을 전한다.

I dunno, I'd say Flash could use that timing push of his and destroy any Protoss (other then maybe Stork) 3 times in a row.

i dont think a timing push would work 3 times on the same protoss when that guy knows u'r weak vs toss and probably have only this timing push
the problem with flash is that he can basically do what ever he wants since he knows the mechanics perfect and see builds from any moment ( i wonder if he see's everything that way like the matrix... ok in 3 sec i'm gonna reach my hand .......and at the same time bend it while openning my mouth --- describing a zip from a cup)
any way since forgg has basiclly said it that he counts on that timing push any good protoss which i certainly count any protoss this days in the round of 16 to be wont fall for the same trick 3 times in a row .
ok got carried away a bit but still.. its a valid point
i say we dust off and nuke it from orbit

Exactly what I thought lol... After today he went for earlier timing pushes than the usual i'm starting to fear we are going to see a Terran Kwanro...
