Today's MSL Grand Finals Winner Is . . .

(T)Flash, "I'll make sure to create 'Flash's Era'"

[image loading]


Q Your feelings on winning the MSL?
A I’m really happy about beating such a strong opponent like Jaedong for the first time in a Bo5 as well as winning the MSL. Last week I was so disappointed with losing the OSL so it was difficult, but now I feel with today's win I will be able to become an even better player.

Q How did your losing in the OSL affect you?
A Firstly it made me feel more potency. I thought about what areas I must have lacked in to face a reverse-win and I think it was that I lost focus. In the future I told myself I would never lose focus again when I'm leading 2-0, and I think that helped a lot for today's match.

Q If you were to compare your feelings with last season's MSL finals?
A I believe I've matured as a player more, and I believe my mental attitude has improved as well while facing this season. On top of that, I believe the OSL loss also helped me grow too. With last season's MSL loss and this season's OSL loss, I was so sorry to my fans but I hope that this MSL victory can make you guys smile.

Q You’ve never had luck with the MSL thus far (After 8 attempts, it was your first victory)
A Each time I dropped out, I would feel like crap thinking I lacked skill and had no luck. Luckily after I reached the big stage of the finals last season, I felt confident that I would be able to do so again. Like this, I was able to win the title this time, and after winning this MSL, I’m further looking forward to next season with confidence that I can win again.

Q You went 14 cc in all three sets.
A In the first set, without regard to what strategy he would use I just decided to go 14 cc. However, in the 2nd set after scouting and seeing my opponent FE, I just went along with him. With (Z)Jaedong hyung I feel like I’ve been behind in mind games before so I thought to myself I would try hard to bring out my best gameplay. While living with Coach (T)Hery we came up with a lot of different strategies, and because of this ample practice, I believe I was able to win. I want to use this spot to say thank you.

Q We heard Woongjin zergs helped you a lot.
A Along with my teammates Woongjin zergs, especially (Z)ZerO helped me a lot. I wasn’t really able to ask my teammates to help a lot since it was the prelims, but (Z)ZerO practically filled that empty spot himself and helped me practice so much. I feel like I should go straight to the Woongjin team house and pay my respects. Coach Lee Jae Kyun told me I need to win, and even pulled (Z)ZerO away from proleague practice time to help me. (Z)ZerO also said to me, “Since I’ve helped you so much, you must win” and I’m really happy I was able to keep that promise. In the future if there are Woongjin players who need my help, I will also help them to my utmost abilities as well.

Q Before the match, both of you guys said you thought today's winner would be the best player..
A I don’t think I’m hands down the best player yet. Today’s win just provided the stepping stones to help me keep up with (Z)Jaedong hyung – I believe it’s too early to say I’ve completely overcome (Z)Jaedong hyung and become the strongest player. What I said in the pre-game interviews was just pre-game interviews (laughs). I believe I haven’t beaten (Z)Jaedong hyung in all aspects yet. Now I’ve pulled ahead a bit in head to heads but in terms of careers, there are still a lot of areas in which I lack. (Z)Jaedong hyung said he would block me getting both league titles. For my part, I worked hard to prevent (Z)Jaedong hyung from getting his golden badge so I just grabbed the chance to keep up with him. I feel like we will continue to meet in the future.

Q We heard MBCGame provided you with an exclusive booth
A I thank MBCGame so much for helping me like this. With these accomodations, it was so great to the point where it was strange to think that players could say they could not showcase their full potential abilities. Today, MBCGame's booth was just awesome.

Q “LeeSsang Era” and “Flash’s Era” – which of these do you like more?
A To be honest I’d have to say I like “Flash’s era” more (laughs). However I think the fans are hoping the “Lee Ssang Era” will continue to last a long time. Though I believe for the enjoyment of esports that would be of large help, personally I prefer “Flash’s era” over “LeeSsang Era”. I will try my hardest to make sure “Flash’s Era” occurs.

Q Last words you want to say?
A For this finals match, so many people helped me. After I lost the OSL, I received so many text messages but I felt so sorry that I couldn't reply to any of them. I’m really happy that I won today as a sort of repayment towards those people.

Today’s win is not the end. This is just the start for me. After all, this is merely my third championship. In the future I’ll obtain more than 5, 6 titles and keep working hard so that I can set the record for the most league titles for a progamer, so please look forward to it.

Was waiting for this, thank you so much for speedy translation!

I love Flash! I'm glad he's still super motivated to keep winning the leagues and I believe him when he says he'll make it Flash's Era

Thanks Zero! Woongjin players will get a good practicepartner out of this!

Also this must terminate all speculations that flash "cheesed" in game 2 and 3.
According to Reach, he is the fastest learner he has ever seen. He start bw only like 2/3 years ago. Infact, his bw history knowledge is so limited, he didn't even know what the map Guillotine was.

LOL Flash

I don't think even YOU can help break the infamous "Woongjin terran curse"...
The probability of Kim Carrier getting all those predictions wrong is similar to the probability Flash loses a TvT. Kim Carrier MUST BE a genius. His only big mistake... STORK.

Thanks for the super quick translation.

Flash is the man!

I always liked Zero and know I like him even more Weird that Effort didn't help him though. I thought they were supposed to practice together or was it just a mind game?
