Your feelings on ending a 6 match losing streak.
▲ First of all, it has been the longest losing streak in the history of the team. It impact on our play is obvious. Today after falling behind 0-3, we couldn't help wonder if it was going to be a seventh loss in a row, but I am very happly to have ended the streak. Like the 6 match losing streak, I hope we can get a 6 match winning streak.
In game five, did you predict your opponent's strategy at all?
▲ To a certain degree, I predicted. When I scanned, it wasn't far from what I had expected. That's why I thought I could win, but I didn't expect his forces to be so big. Luckily, my opponent was a bit passive and I was able to take the win.
Do your feel that your opponent was out of form at all?
▲ I don't feel that way. At the time, I didn't feel like I was in any trouble, but when I watched the VOD afterwards, I discovered that it was very dangerous. After the match, I really wondered, "Was the opponent scared of my reputation? Or was he just too nervous?" Anyways, I believe that he assessed the situation incorrectly.
Who did you originally think your ACE set opponent would be?
▲ I thought it would be Stork. Fortress isn't a great map for TvT, so when Turn stepped up for the set, I was a bit anxious. But still, I was able to put on a good display. I faced a dangerous situation at the start and was worried, but luckily I managed to win out in the end.
Why were you in trouble at the start of the ace?
▲ I didn't play very well and came out behind. But my luck was good and my vultures entered his base and came away with an advantage and won.
Why did you choose to drop his main?
▲ For one, it was because I was lucky. I saw him mass up his army in the middle and thought that he must not think that I have dropships. When I arrived, it was exactly as I thought, he didn't have much of an army here. It went according to plan.
Your seven set Ace losing streak came to an end.
▲ It has been a long time since the last time I've had two victories in the same day. I still vividly remember each and every one of my seven losses. This season, I've also had a chance to appear in ace sets, but since it is very hard to play on Central Plains, we sent out Stats instead.
Ending your losing streak gives you the longest winning streak in SPL11 and the most number of wins. That's three birds with one stone.
▲ Reach has also pointed that out to me. It's rare to get three things at once. Right now I am not putting too much thought into it, but I believe it is a good omen. If I can maintain my current level and achieve my goal of 60 victories, I believe I will definitely have the most wins.

Last words?
▲ I saw a lot of cheerfuls. A lot of fans were talking about the losing streak. It makes me very sad. I don't know what to say about a losing streak right after last year's championship. From now on we will try to bring out our championship form, and I hope our fans will continue to support us.

Your thoughts on ending your six game losing streak.
▲ Violet[Name]=The losing streak for the team and I are one and the same. It was on my mind a lot, but today when I got to the match hall, I had this strong sensation that I would end the streak. It ended up just like I had imagined it. I am very happy. I won't go on a losing streak ever again.
▲ Stats=After falling behind 0-3, I was very nervous, but to be able to comeback in a 4-3 reversal, I am very happy. Today, we barely ended our losing streak. For the next match, we will have to put even more effort into practices.
You suffered some loses even after scouting your opponent's hidden buildings.
▲ Violet[Name]=I didn't want to that to happen. Our units are were the same. Stork's only advantage was that he researched range. Fighting that battle was like me trying to play with my toes. My micro is horrible, but I didn't think that my troops would be so weak.
- Your chance came after you killed the shuttle and reaver.
▲ Violet[Name]=Even if I didn't snipe that shuttle and reaver, I thought, as long as I could hold off the opponent's rush, I would win. Even if my micro at the start was a mess, I could still win since my opponent's economy was too weak. After sniping the shuttle, taking home the victory was just a matter of time.
- Did you feel pressure from being sent out in a 0-3 deficit?
▲ Violet[Name]=I was so nervous, but I was confident that I would win. Today I didn't think about anything and concentrated entirely on the game. Thinking too much will mess up your game. That's why I thought, "I've already lost 6 games in a row. What's a 7th?" and approached the game casually. It was easy that way.
- What was your reason behind delaying your expo and building troops first?
▲ Stats=I didn't expect Jangbi would use Dark templar, so I was a bit confused. But today, my prepared build was very appropriate for the game. Today my opponent opened dark templar and invested all of his money into cannons. I took that opportunity to kill off his troops and counterattack and got the victory. It went better than I imagined.
- What was the reason for the slump of KT's P's?
▲ Violet[Name]=I personally believe that it's not just our competitiveness. Player's form and psychology are part of his playing ability. There are a variety of reason for losing streaks, but in the end it still comes down to strength of play. When suffering losing streaks, we must not let that get to us psychologically and figure out where we are lacking in our competitiveness. We have to watch out for that during practice. (t/l yuck)
▲ Stats=It's only this way because we're failing. But because of the recent losing streak, the coaches have redoubled our practices, and practices have been extended to later hours. Our play is better now and our competitive spirit has improved as well.
- What was the mood of the team during the losing streak.
▲ Violet[Name]=We lose matches. How could the mood be good? But we believed we could turn it around. That's why it wasn't depressing. Normally, I only practice until 2 AM, but yesterday I practiced until 4 AM. Ending the losing streak today was the reward of hard practice.
- Does hearing whispers of “The Flash Score” or “The Flash one man team” make you feel nervous？
▲ Violet[Name]=Since we have lost so many times by the score of 1-4, we naturally would hear such things. But we do acknowledge it, and everyone is working hard to break that mold. The losing streak has further reinforced our resolve. We believe that we will become even stronger.
- The next team is wemade.
▲ Stats=We have only just broken our losing streaking. We need to work even hard for more victories. In addition, although I only managed one win, one loss, last round, my one win was against wemade. I will work hard and practice for victory this time too.
- Last words.
▲ Violet[Name]=At the start of the season, Flash and I made a pact to reach for 60 wins as our goal for the season. But I'm like a cat trying to copy his lion roar, so I changed my goal immediately (laugh). My goal is to at least overcome my win count from last year. Today I ended my losing streak; I hope to carry the momentum over to MST on Thursday.
I know that fan and our supports are worried about us, and we worked very hard during our losing streak. I hope everyone will continue to cheer for us.
Lastly, I was very tense today, and [金城钟(Kim Sueng Jung?)] gave me a massage and got me to relax. Thanks to his help, I won and I want to thank him. Next time I would like his help again.
▲ Stats=I would like to thank Reach that practiced with me all this time, and I would like to thank my coach that never lost faith in me. Kim Sueng Jung also massaged my arms before the match and gave me his strength and calmed me down. Thank you.
Lastly, I hope that ForGG，bbyoung, Action who lost today will be able to pull together.
