Thoughts on making it past the Ro24?
-Last WCG, I met Kwanro right from the start, so I got quickly eliminated, and the memory’s still fresh. I managed to get past the first challenge today, so I’m very happy.

You had a beautiful comeback in game 1.
-I was very disadvantaged after losing the Spire, but my lings managed to get into the undefended base, so I was able to take it back. Recently I’ve been making Defilers a lot, and it’s had good effect. ZvZ often gets to Hive tech macro [T/N: Am I misinterpreting this, or is he saying his games often do this o.O?], and today was the same situation. Queens and Defilers can reinforce an advantage, and can also quickly reverse a disadvantageous situation, they’re very effective. Hive tech can achieve very good games, and is very interesting.

Your recent game in the OSL vs. Flash has become a hot topic.
-It was a disappointing loss. I couldn’t sleep well after the game that day. I should be quickly forgetting about it, but losing that game really is a pity.

What were the issues with that game?
-I had a few mistakes. Under that situation, I already did everything I could. I guess I’m just lacking in ability. Thinking back, there probably were better solutions, but I made some judgment errors, but I don’t think that’s an issue of ability.

You’re playing Hiya in the OSL this afternoon.
-Two games a day, I prepared a lot for the ZvZ, and schedules like this would often come up in the regular season, so I’m not feeling too much pressure. I personally don’t think Dreamliner is that Zerg favored, but I prepared well, so I should be able to win.

Plans for the WCG?
-I stopped by LA for last year’s BlizzCon, I think it’s a great place. I want to go there again. LA has a huge time zone difference with our country, so it’s hard to adjust, so I think it’s better for someone with experience to go, like me [laugh]

Thoughts on winning?
-It was a fun way to win the Ro24 [laugh]

You lost game 1.
-I lost badly. You saw it too, I got Zergling rushed, so I wanted to quickly move on to the next game.

You managed to get 2 wins after that.
-I feel the opponent prepared very well, and played very well. In the preparing time I typed in the chat screen “It’s 1:1 now : P” He replied: “It’s my honor,” and I replied “I’m also honored.” I played spontaneously in games 2 and 3.

You have OSL later.
-When the schedule first came I started preparing in advance, so I want everyone to see me win on the OSL too.

You lost the first game of the OSL too.
-This time I prepared well, so I should perform well. I’m confident that I’ll do even better on the OSL.

The WCG is in LA.
-I really want to be the Korean representative. If I want to go it must be as the first place winner. In LA, I have memories of winning BlizzCon. Thinking back, the plane ride was long, and I couldn’t sleep well, it was hard to adjust. But everyone has to deal with that, so it wasn’t a big deal. I will try my best, and I should end up with the desired result.

Last words?
-Today I went LWW, and I have a loss on the OSL too, so I’ll win the other two to advance, so I hope everyone looks forward to it.

Yeah, that amateur was so happy to just be there, lol.

Zero practicing hive tech in zvz, lol. He has indeed gone that route quite often, though.

That amateur looked like a winner despite losing the war.

Props to him. Beating the reigning OSL champion is brag-worthy.

Regarding Zero's interview...no mention of tank defense? What decisions could have Zero made that would have made a difference? The only way that I can see of busting through that defensive line was Action's defiler usage, a simultaneous combo of plague and swarm on the mech ball within a span of a second. Guardian definitely wasn't the answer. By itself, Guardian is horrible to be used offensively due to irradiate and goliath and can not be used in conjuncture with swarm. Shooting the tanks at the back would expose the guardians to turret fire.

Regarding Zero's supposed tendency to get to Hive tech in practice...doesn't he practice with Kwanro? I have trouble believing that. Maybe Free off-races as a Zerg. That would explain a lot of things...including Free's performance.
