I dedicate my 6000th post to the first win of the future champions of the 2010-2011 Shinhan Bank Proleague, STX Soul!

Starcraft of Unbelievable Legend, fighting!!

[image loading]


Bogus

[image loading]


Thoughts on your first win of the season?
-I’m happy to get the first win. I wasn’t in great condition before the game, and this victory is going to help steer me back on track, so I’m glad.

Your abilities seem to be improving.
-During practice, I try to get a better sense of the bigger picture, and my decision making has improved. I feel my abilities improving.

You were pressured early on.
-I thought about a lot of stuff during the game, but I didn’t expect it’d turn out like this. I was surprised to have been pressured so hard. It seems like I’m still not focused enough during games, I need to work on improving my focus.

For a successful comeback, what did you focus on?
-During the engagements, I focused on accurately gauging the distances, and tried to change the situation. I also defended my opponent’s drops well, so I could make a comeback.

As opposed to before, today, your management and decisions were very quick and decisive.
-Before, I would often get into long drawn out attrition fights, so I’ve been trying to improve my decision making to end it decisively. I feel like I’ve improved in this regard a lot recently.

During the China-Korea games, you lost to Trap, were you impacted?
-I’ve been trying to forget about the losses in China. I played very poorly back then, so during the off-season, I spent a lot of time and practiced hard.

You’re getting a lot of attention as STX’s next big player.
-All I can do is play my best, right? [laugh] Ah~! I think it’s because I often practice with players from other teams.

Your goal this season?
-To become a core player on STX’s roster.

Hero

Thoughts on your first win?
-It’s my first time playing on Empire of the Sun, and my ZvZ has a lot of weak points, so I was worried, but luckily, I won. I’m glad to get a good start.

It’s been said ZvZ is your weak point.
-My ZvZ would often let the opponent get a comeback. I’ve been more focused in games, and I’ve changed my view on it recently, and now I’ve found confidence.

Last season’s results weren’t fully satisfactory.
-I was disappointed in myself last season too. But I also learned a lot. With the experience, I should get a good result this season. A lot of the bad habits I had in games have been corrected.

Thoughts on today’s game?
-I saw the opponent’s expansion, so I massed lings, but it got defended. Luckily I kept up the aggression, and won with Mutalisks.

You’re regarded as the team’s third ace.
-It seems the team has high expectations [laugh] I think if I can work harder, I should be able to become an ace for the team, so I’m working on it.

Your goal this season?
-I have a personal goal, but I don’t want to say it now. I’ll say it after I meet it, naturally. Last season, I set my goal too early, and it ended up being awkward, so I need to be more cautious now.

Kal and Shuttle

[image loading]


Thoughts on the first win of the season?
Kal: I’m glad to have won. Before my game, everyone performed well, so I felt like I needed to also set an example, which also put on some pressure. Good thing I won.
Shuttle: This is my first time opening with a win in SPL. I think this season will turn out well. Bogus’ strong performance put pressure on me, but luckily I won.

You made a comeback victory.
Shuttle: I totally didn’t expect it. Good thing I didn’t lose to that attack. Even though I took heavy losses, victory cancels out all in the end, so I just went for it. Because it was easy to expand, I feel like if I could win the last engagement, there’s a good chance that I could win.

Were you confident in winning that last battle?
Shuttle: Even if I didn’t win with it, as long as I got the opponent’s natural, I would gain a lot, so I felt like I should go for it.

Your macro was excellent.
Shuttle: Rather than fancy strategies and tactics, I focus more on macro. I would usually play with this style in games.

Did you expect your opponent’s drop?
Kal: I expected it, which is why I sim citied like I did. I would meet this strategy often in practice, so defending it was easy.

Your goal this season?
Kal: To be the team’s ace. Right now, there a lot of people gunning for the spot of STX’s ace [laugh]
Shuttle: Personally, I think if I could get 40 wins in SPL that’d be great. Also I hope our team wins the regular season as rank 1.

Last words?
Kal: Everyone is working hard, we’ll definitely get a good result this time. I hope the fans support us.
Shuttle: I’m very glad we opened with a victory. This SPL is our time to win. I hope we can get a good result, get the grand championship.

Well, at least TurN won his game, good start for the new and developing Khan terran line! Oh and it looks like Hero lost some weight lol, he's better looking now. Good for Kal too, seems like WCG silver brought back some confidence in him.

STX fighting! This year we have the deepest line-up and Kal looks downright scary in some games. In WCG game 1, he almost got Flash! If Calm starts performing again, nothing can take the gold from us.

I hope STX put up a good fight to KT and SKT this season. On paper their lineup is so strong.

We should make a collection of indvidual goals for this PL.

# of season wins:
Bisu: 30
Best: 35
Shuttle: 40

Who offers more? Looks like it is quite a disadvantage to play at the end of the first week, you always have to say more then the ones before you. Might end awkward.

Shuttle is also pretty much a boss, so it's all in sync. STX isn't going to lose a damn game and Shuttle will help. How can he not hit 40?

STX has a good shot if they don't suddenly forget how to play like they did in the end of last season.

Nice interview. # of wins for players will be a lot higher this season overall with double WL and longer rounds so I don't think Shuttle is too ambitious with his statement. He can beat pretty much anyone not S-Class if the game turns into mid-late macro style.

Leta interview after beating Oz (rough translation):

Q 이번 시즌 목표는.
A 50승이 목표다. 저번시즌에도 50승이 목표였는데 아쉽게도 이루지 못했다. 하지만 이번 시즌에는 꼭 찍을 수 있을 것 같다. 느낌이 좋다.

Q: Your goal for this season.
A: 50 wins is my goal. Last season it was also 50 wins but regretfully I was unable to achieve that. But this season I must do it. I feel good.

STX winning proleague? Not a chance. SKT and KT are the obvious favorites, with hite and Woongjin being dark horses. STX might not even make playoffs if they narrow it down from 6.

bogus looks like a decent terran, well STX looks good.

But Khan T_T, what happened to the allmighty... that was your game. Stupid map lets get 3 bases so easy and with cliff advantage... you need to be a turtle.
