MSL Survivor Group 6
2-0 Winner: (P)Pure
“I only want to show the good side of me”


[image loading]


Q: You advanced to MSL being #1 in your group
A: I can’t remember the last time I’ve won recently. I thought that I should advance with 2 wins to get over it, and I’m happy that the results came out the way I wanted to.

Q: Your hidden Gateway against (Z)Action worked well
A: I planned the hidden Gateway ahead of time, but I’ve never used it under those conditions. The starting position was good for me so I thought positively throughout the game. Although I’m embarrassed to say this, I’ve lost many games when I was ahead so I did my best not to put my guard down until the end in order to defend against any strategy. After playing like that, my advantage became so huge.

Q: You used Carriers against (T)Canata
A: I planned this build ahead as well. It’s hard to battle against Terran when the map’s split in half, so I thought that I should use Carriers. Although honestly I didn’t feel too good about this strategy, my strategy worked really well in my first game, so I gained the confidence to use this build.

Q: It’s your 2nd MSL qualification
A: I want to go to Ro4 this season, but because my skills are lacking so I don’t know. I definitely want to go to group selections.

Q: Anything else?
A: Recently, I was playing unlike a progamer, so I felt sorry for my fans. Since then, I haven’t visited the community [forums] (laughs). From now, I’ll make sure to show mostly winning games and try my best in Proleague and Starleagues.

+ Show Spoiler +

- 조 1위로 MSL에 진출하게 됐다
▲ 최근에 이겨본 적이 언제인지 기억하기 힘들 정도였다. 그래서 오늘은 반드시 2승으로 올라가야겠다고 생각했고 지금 결과가 좋게 나와서 기분 좋다.

- 김성대와의 경기에서 5시 몰래 게이트가 좋았는데
▲ 몰래 게이트도 생각은 하고 나왔는데 그런 식으로 연습은 한 판도 하지 않았다. 시작하고 나서 자리도 잘 나왔고 즉흥적으로 하게 됐다. 창피하긴 한데 유리했던 경기를 진 적이 워낙 많아서 끝까지 방심하지 않으려고 했고 상대의 모든 플레이를 막으려고 노력했다. 그렇게 하다 보니 많이 유리해 진 것 같다.

- 고인규에게는 캐리어를 썼다
▲ 쓰려고 마음먹고 나온 빌드다. 테란이랑 반땅 싸움으로 가니까 너무 힘들어서 캐리어를 써야겠다고 생각하고 나왔다. 솔직히 그렇게 느낌이 좋지는 않았는데 첫 판을 좋은 전략으로 잘 이겼기 때문에 승자전에서도 자신감을 가지고 약간 부유하게 플레이 할 수 있었다.

- 2번째 MSL 진출인데
▲ 올 시즌에는 4강까지 가고 싶은데 실력이 많이 부족해서 잘 모르겠지만 조지명식까지는 꼭 가고 싶다.

- 하고 싶은 말이 있다면
▲ 최근에 프로게이머에 어울리지 않는 경기를 보여 준 것 같아서 팬들에게 죄송했다. 그 이후로 커뮤니티에 한 번도 가지 않았었다.(웃음) 이제부터 최대한 이기는 모습 보여드려야겠다고 생각했고 오늘을 계기로 개인리그와 프로리그까지 열심히 하는 모습 보여드리겠다.




MSL Survivor Group 6
2-1 Winner: (Z)Action
“I’m always confident at ZvT”


[image loading]


Q: How do you feel about your first MSL qualification?
A: Before the match, I didn’t have confidence but now that I came through and advanced, I think I can do better in the future.

Q: How was your game against (P)Pure?
A: I predicted that he would try to push my 5 o’clock expansion, but I didn’t expect him to harass like that. I was harassed a lot more than I should have been, and it affected the entire game. My confidence had dropped.

Q: Your game against (T)PianO?
A: Normally, I’m confident in ZvT, but Match Point is a hard map. It was different from a Proleague game because I didn’t have any burden this time, so I tried a build that I wanted to do and played offensively. I knew that I had a chance of winning when I made him lift his natural.

Q: (T)Canata wasn’t an easy opponent
A: From the beginning, I planned to start off with a rich build in order to play an economic game. I didn’t plan on making Lurkers, but when I saw his Engineering Bay, I decided to make Lurkers first. I upgraded Consume a little late after midgame and that made me worry a bit. When I blocked one of his pushes well and successfully expanded to 7 o’clock, I thought I won.

Q: You showed both offensive and economic games
A: Usually, I prefer a management play that I match accordingly to what my opponent is doing. Although I like being offensive, I’m happier when I win with my management.

Q: Your determination must be strong right now
A: Honestly, I want to do better in Proleague. However, now that I advanced to an individual league, rather than just do decently, I will have to do my best as to advance to the finals.

Q: You’ve never been in the group selections before
A: I think it’ll be fun so I’m looking forward to it, but I’m narrow-minded so I’m not sure (laughs).

Q: Anything else?
A: After Proleague ended, I started to practice over the break and although it was hard, I thank my teammates for helping me. Also, my coach told me that in the loser’s match, my opponent will try to sunken break, so he advised me to build a lot of Sunkens, and it really happened. I thank my coach for helping me with my build order.

- 생애 첫 MSL 진출 소감은
▲ 경기하기 전에는 자신감이 없었는데 막상 진출하고 나니까 다음부터는 더 잘 할 수 있을 것 같다.

- 박세정과의 경기 어땠나
▲ 상대가 초반에 5시를 찌를 것 같다는 예상은 했지만 그런 식으로 견제할 줄은 몰랐다. 그래도 내가 생각했던 것보다 너무 휘둘려서 그 이후 경기까지 영향을 받은 것 같다. 자신감이 떨어졌었다.

- 임진묵과의 경기는 어땠나
▲ 평소 테란전은 자신 있는 편인데 매치포인트가 어려운 맵이었고 프로리그랑은 다르게 부담감도 없어서 해보고 싶은 빌드를 해보자 하는 생각에 공격적으로 플레이했다. 상대 앞마당을 띄우고 나서는 이길 수 있겠다고 생각했다.

- 고인규가 쉬운 상대는 아니었는데
▲ 처음부터 운영을 위해서 부유하게 하려고는 했었다. 원래 러커를 먼저 갈 생각은 없었는데 정찰해 보니 엔지니어링 베이를 먼저 짓길래 나도 선 러커를 했다. 중반 이후에 컨슘 개발을 늦게 해서 조금 당황하기도 했다. 한 방 병력을 잘 막고 7시를 확장했을 때 이겼다고 생각했다.

- 공격과 운영 모두 보여줬는데
▲ 평소에 상대의 모든 플레이에 맞춰가는 운영형 플레이를 선호한다. 공격적인 플레이를 좋아하긴 하지만 운영으로 이겼을 때 더욱 기쁘다.

- 각오가 남다를 것 같다
▲ 사실 프로리그를 더 잘하고 싶은 욕심이 크다. 그래도 개인리그에 올라온 이상 잘하려면 어중간한 것보다 최대한 잘해야 하기 때문에 결승까지도 가보고 싶다.

- 조지명식도 안 해봤을 텐데
▲ 재미 있을 것 같아서 기대는 하고 있는데 내가 소심한 편이라서 잘 모르겠다.(웃음)

- 하고 싶은 말이 있다면
▲ 프로리그 끝나고 경기를 준비하게 됐는데 휴가 기간이어서 연습하기가 어려웠는데도 도와준 팀원들에게 고맙다. 또 패자전에서 신정민 코치가 분명히 찌르기가 올 거라고 성큰을 여러 개 지으라고 했는데 딱 그렇게 됐다. 빌드에 도움을 준 신코치님에게도 감사 드리고 싶다.

Group 6 is still playing, and the first interview is already up? That is some pretty ridiculous speed by both Fomos and by you. Anyway, thanks for the translation!

I've always thought of Pure as a pretty mediocre player. Didn't expect to see him qualify, much less go 2-0.

Poor Action, that was a terribly angled photo.

Thanks for the interviews, your speed is seriously absurd.
