Jaedong & Lomo
3000 ESPORTS bucks for the most hilarious photoshop of this picture Lomo, you haven't had an SPL winner interview in quite some time. Thoughts? ▲Lomo: It does feel like a long time, it's somehow embarrassing. Since it's been so long, even though I'm glad I won, in another sense I guess I'm upset. ▲Jaedong: I don't think it's been that long. ▲Lomo: Yes it has. ▲Jaedong: Has it really? (haha) Since the team won, I'm very glad, and to top it all off I secured the win for us. Last night before I slept, I prayed solemnly, and it looks like I received a blessing today. At night, I always pray that I'll be able to win the next day.
This period of time must have been exhausting on your spirit. ▲Lomo: It's not that I didn't practice, but somehow I still couldn't get the results, and the pressure was enormous. I kept telling myself that I had to end my losing streak quickly, but still all the golden opportunities escaped my grasp. Today, though, I finally succeeded.
In reality, though, you haven't had too many opportunities to play. ▲Lomo: I've been training hard, and recently I reviewed the matches I lost. I discovered that in pretty much all of them I gained an advantage but the game took a turn for the worse. For that, I probably didn't earn the trust of my team.
Jaedong, even though it's been a short time, in the last few matches it seems you're not sweeping everything cleanly. [T/N unsure] ▲Jaedong: It feels like every time I lose a match I get another wrinkle on my face (haha). The pressure is too weighty, so whenever I lose I feel I'm getting older and my heart takes a blow. So today, I knew I had to win.
Is it mainly because of troubles with ZvP? ▲Jaedong: Although that's part of it, I think I just simply couldn't do what I should have, which is disappointing, to the point where I want to rage.
Before the series with KT, you tweeted the phrase “ah... sucks,” which became a point of discussion. ▲Jaedong: It wasn't because of the match with KT that I posted that. The reasons are purely personal, and had nothing to do with the match.
Lomo, you're smiling as if you know something. ▲Lomo: Sorry, Jaedong just threatened me to keep quiet.
Did you practice with the mentality that your opponents would be Zergs? ▲Lomo: Woongjin has a deep lineup, so I didn't exclusively practice TvZ; I worked on every matchup. Jaedong suggested an opening to me for game 2. If I had followed it, I would have lost for sure. ▲Jaedong: It's not like that (haha). ▲Lomo: When I'm racking my brains and Jaedong suggests an opening, I'd probably give it a shot, but today if I had followed his strategy, I would have lost. ▲Jaedong: No, definitely not ▲Lomo: Although, to be honest today's mass goliath attack was suggested by Jaedong too. ▲Jaedong: We practice together, so I knew it'd be effective. I said he had to sue it for sure, but he said he wanted to proxy rax. I told him, no proxy rax, and if he had proxied today it would have been a disaster. ▲Lomo: That's true. Thanks to Jaedong, I won (haha).
Jaedong, it's slightly regrettable that your wins weren't in an elegant fashion. ▲Jaedong: I agree. I came in thinking that I had to win steadily, so I wasn't very adaptive in my play. That's how these games happened.
In your game against free, if you hadn't elected to use mutalisks, you would have been forced to play very passively. [T/N I feel like there's a question missing here, since Jaedong's answer doesn't line up at all] ▲Jaedong: I was at a bleak disadvantage from the start. It wasn't because I was afraid of a losing streak that I played that way, but my position wasn't good enough. Same in the last game: I thought the situation looked bad, so I played defensively. A losing streak isn't something that influences me. Every game the team wins right now is valuable, and I must fulfill my responsibility, so I wanted to win that game for sure.
Lomo, your results from now on will be even more important. ▲Lomo: To be honest, I wasn't quite satisfied with my play either. In game 3, I had a winning timing, but I still lost, which made me feel incredible regret. I want to play games that I don't feel any regret about, and I'll work hard to win.
Along with Hiya, you're starting to win games. Is Hwaseung T picking up steam? ▲Lomo: Terrans are very important in SWL, so we have to invigorate ourselves.
Jaedong, do you hunger for more wins in SWL? ▲Jaedong: I can't do much about it. Even though I'm sad, it's me who is not strong enough, which infuriates me. I have to accept reality: it's my own weaknesses that have caused me to fall behind amongst the S-class. It's not that I'm demotivated. There's a lot of pressure, and I can feel myself getting older. My fans want me to be the best, but I have to apologize that I'm so nub right now.
Our talk's run over time already, but Lomo, when you see Jaedong in this state, do you feel sorry? ▲Lomo: Forcing so much onto his shoulders, of course I must apologize. And when he loses, he's vilified so harshly. But he's made so much money, he still should earn his keep ▲Jaedong: I'd rather leave that out; I'm not sure how much of that talk should make it into an interview. Best to keep quiet on it (haha).
Anything else? ▲Lomo: Thanks to the coaches for giving me the opportunity to lead off today. Also, my younger teammates practiced with me late into the night, and they didn't even complain. I'm very thankful, and I'll definitely treat them to dinner. The fans are also giving me a lot of strength, so I'll perform better and repay everyone's expectations. ▲Jaedong: I'm really glad I didn't lose today, even more than because I won. I'm ecstatic that I closed out the series for us, and I hope I get to taste more victory in SPL. I've always wanted to show the fans the rise of Hwaseung, and I've been working toward that goal. The coaches and assistant coaches all helped me out. I want to see us start on a winning streak. ▲Lomo: Also, the head coach correctly predicted our opponents' lineup, which made practice that much easier. Thanks to the head coach, who aided our victory in that way.

I knew you would be working on this ~_~
I'm really relieved that the pressure on Jaedong is being lessened by some of the OZ players pulling their weight. =] JD works better without having to be Jaedong OZ.
"But he's made so much money, he still should pay for the food." is worded a little weirdly.. It makes it sound like he's paying for the food for Oz o_O;;; "그래도 그만큼 돈을 많이 버니까 밥 값을 해야 한다고 생각한다" should be something more like "Still, since he gets paid so much, he needs to earn his keep" IMO. It's not really a phrase that translates literally into English well.

Interesting interview, thank you for the translation

ROLF!!! liking this interview... one of the few good OZ interviews
|
Fantastic interview. :D
Thanks!

We may have high expectations for Jaedong but those pale in comparison to the expectations he has for himself.
If he was only part of a different team where he would maybe feel a little less pressure...
|
wow this is a very interesting interview. The interviewer is so harsh at times i feel. Haha.
And i feel sorry for Jaedong.

This just really amused me:

Apparently even his teammates fear the wrath of the Dong.

Man, I felt so bad for Jaedong. I feel like I've watched him grow up. He's like a little brother to me and I get sad when he takes on so much pressure. I'm just glad his mom is so supportive of him. Hang in their Jaedong, you will be fine!

Liked the whole interview. Thanks for translating.

Ahhh, this interview rocks! Guys seem so sincere. Poor Jae, I think he has a serious "fear of loss", that disturbs him more and more, I wish he got over it somehow, but I guess its just impossible and too late. He sounds like he's tired of this fear, but cant do anything, while it eats him away, please please, let Jae go!

Plenty of laughs in that interview. Thanks for translating! And darn it Jae, you shouldn't talk that way after todays games. You good! ^__^
|
Lomo's one of those players you can't help but love. Thanks for the translation.
|
What the hell? Jaedong is smiling?
Think I've seen everything now.

Lomo looks as feminine as Idra and Incontrol in that beautiful piece of SC2 art that was recently created.

No...because he'll NEVER LOSE AGAIN!!!

Awesome interview! Thanks for translating
Lomo and JD are hilarious together, but JD really needs to overcome his fear of losing and just make everyone else afraid of losing like he usually does.
|
Really interesting interview. Thanks for translating.
About time you won again, Lomo. Him and JD are so funny and adorable together.
JD was suggesting T strats to Lomo? Hm... The +1 goliath strategy, was that used in another recent game? I can't seem to remember right now...
Jaedong, please start pwning everyone again.

wow long interview! I love when they get interviewed together and start gossiping lol

This whole interview: Lomo: I didn't get interviewed for a long time, so it's kinda depressing- Jaedong: NO it's not!! This is a happy time, be happy hahaha!! Lomo: Well, if I followed Jaedong's strategy today, I would have lost- Jaedong: NO, my strategies are great, you won in game 2 thanks to me, remember?!? Hahahah~ Lomo: Okay but since you make a lotta money, you should pay for every- Jaedong: OKAY let's stop this interview now, things such as money shouldn't be talked about carelessly, ahahaha~ *Slaps Lomo on the back laughing heartily while Lomo keels over*
Great interview. Thanks for translating, it's good that Oz has finally got a victory after a while!

well to be fair it was a terran strategy for a game versus a zerg and flash's nemesis is flash, so i'd assume JD has been putting a lot of thought into the match up from both sides.

and VERY surprised nobody has specifically brought up Lomo's "we practice late into the night" comment

Best post game interview in a while. Those two are great!
Lomo winning as many games in this match as his entire R1-2 I think, lol
Was HiyA vs KT, now Lomo, Anytime next week? ^^
Jaedong feeling the pressure as usual, I feel for you buddy. Win more games for more interviews please.

Shit, if Jaedong says he's a nub right now, then all other zerg players are super-über-nuby nub-nap-noobs
