Jaedong
[image loading]

Thoughts on winning?
-To make the playoffs, we need to win everything. It’s good that we won at such a dangerous time. Even though the road is still long, we won’t abandon hope and we’ll keep winning.

Did you expect a ZvT?
-I felt they would play a Terran, and I personally felt Really was more likely than Classic. When the lineup was announced I relaxed, and so the game went easily.

The game still can’t be considered clean, it wasn’t a “Jaedong” game.
-I made a few too many mistakes in the early-midgame, and I played strangely. I kept giving away units, and my control wasn’t at 100%. The management in the lategame wasn’t ideal either.

It seems your confidence in ZvT has fell a lot.
-Originally I was very confident in ZvT, so today’s game wouldn’t have impacted me. I trust that if I can reduce errors I can still play very well.

You’re challenging the SPL winning streak record.
-I never really thought about it in any of my games, and now I’m already at 13-wins. If I win next game, I can create a new record of 14 straight wins. I’m ambitious for this. Everytime I play in SPL, my attitude is it’s impossible for me to lose, so I think that’s why I’ve performed so well.

Next game is against CJ, which is crucial for both your personal record and the team advancing to the playoffs.
-It’s irrelevant who we play, we need to win all of our games, so we can’t focus just on CJ. We’ll focus on all of our games, so we think we can get a good result.

You’re at 48 wins this season, are you satisfied?
-I’m very satisfied. There’s still a distance to Flash, it’ll be hard to catch up. You’d need to get 10 wins every round to get 50 wins, so I think it’s already a very high score.

Hiya

You won a 40-minute late game victory.
-Today’s game fatigued the audience and the fans, I’m sorry. But even so, I kept thinking that I can’t lose, so I won in the end. I want to take this opportunity to apologize to everyone.

Hyvaa’s first Zergling attack made you lose some Marines.
-I didn’t think he would mass so many Zerglings. Even though I lost some Marines, I thought I could still win, which became a problem. In the mid-game I kept thinking I had an advantage, so I kept trying to attack trying to end it, which ended up setting me back.

You were disadvantaged until the midgame.
-I thought I wouldn’t lose. I felt if I was disadvantaged, I should focus more, and should strive for a comeback. I made a mistake judging the situation, so I didn’t perform well.

When did you discover that you were disadvantaged?
-When I brought my tanks to the middle of the map, I saw that the opponent had a lot of troops. When I lost all my tanks, I thought, I should focus now.

If Hyvaa took the island first, you could’ve lost.
-I thought if he didn’t take the island expo I would win, so I kept scanning to confirm. But hyvaa seemed never to have wanted to take the island. If hyvaa didn’t make this mistake, I think I would’ve lost. Luckily the opponent erred so I could win.

CJ’s victory is not a good thing for you guys.
-We’re not concerned about other people’s games. We just need to make sure we win to have a good result. We must unconditionally win against CJ on the 23rd.

Last words?
-In my progaming career, such a stifling scenario makes me really depressed, even more so than if I couldn’t control my hands. I want to see the brighter side but I can’t seem to [laugh] Today commentator Kim [T/N: is this Kim Carrier?] returned to SPL after a long time, I feel like he’s still getting used to it again. Also I think my game against free where I nuked was very classic. That was also a pretty bad game for me. Next time against CJ, I’ll definitely open my eyes wide and carefully gauge the situation, and try my best to play a good game.

Killer

Thoughts on winning?
-I’m glad to be able to the end the game. This is an important time for the team, my win helped the team continue the victory, so I’m happy.

You defended the Bunker rush perfectly.
-I don’t know why but I had a feeling Classic would 8rax, that’s why I could defend it so well. As a Zerg, losing to Bunker rushes is the worst [T/N: amen], the most frustrating, so I worked hard to not fail.

You lost to Midas’ Bunker rush against Wemade.
-When I saw the 8rax I was reminded of Midas. This time, to avoid repeating my mistake, I put my entire soul into microing each and every Drone [laugh]

It was a nice, clean game.
-During the game I thought I’m performing well today. When my Lurker pressured the opponent, I felt if I didn’t make a mistake I would win. I played according to my strength in practice. Especially when I saw the Valkyries, I said to myself “Oh yeah!”

You lost to Airforce the most.
-Everytime I see Airforce on TV I would be reminded of that [laugh] We’re about to play time, I hope everyone can see us win this time.

You must win all your games to make the playoffs.
-We’re very confident when preparing, so I believe we can win all our games. If we can advance to the playoffs, there’s a good chance we can get to the grand finals, so we’ll do our best to make the playoffs.

Last words?
-Thanks to my teammates.

I must have been watching a different game. I mean sure Jaedong ran units into Really's aimless army a bunch of times, but he was never in any real danger all game. The late game was just the typical Jaedong cruise control.

"It seems your confidence in ZvT has fell a lot"? He's won both his ZvTs since losing the MSL Final, and he was dominating before that... strange comment.

I think they just expect more from Jaedong is what is implied, like "Oh you won... but it wasn't rape like usual. Are you okay? Is everything alright?" : P

although Oz have almost no chance to go to playoffs, I'm really excited for jaedong's games.

Really was ahead at least until Jaedong got his third up (which took a while). JD kept running zerglings and mutalisks into Really's marines, and he did no damage at all to Really in the early-midgame.

I don't see how his ZvT has fallen... Maybe in this game, but he owned Baby last match.

Besides, it really is a terran dominating time, so really don't think JD's confidence has fallen. He can have mediocre games every once in awhile

I actually think JD ZvT has gotten better, excluding the games for Flash where with all honesty JD played okay, but Flash was at another level.

Looking at his game va Really, it seemed like a flawless lategame where he totally outplayed him, his muta harass didn't do much at the start besides get behind the mineral line of the expo and killed maybe 6 SCVs there, and neither did the ling harass or ling runbys. Was worries me the most I'd CJ plays like they play now, not even 6-0 in the rest of the games

Cmon OZ! You can do it!

JD has his killer stare back. The others need to step up and be consistent!

Hope Backho gets a win next time too! (watching vod tonight )
