KTFlash… Strikes again! But this time, with Flash reverse all-kill edition!
Flash: “A ceremony for the sake of Violet hyung”![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/UTVQR.jpg) I picked the Fomos picture over the DES one because the DES picture had a very sleepy-looking Flash that looked very unflattering. :/ KT’s Flash did not seem to have a problem with his nickname “Perfect Flawlessness” in Proleague. On the 13th, in the Shinhan Bank Winners’ League 10-11 season Round 3 Week 5, he successfully achieved a reverse all-kill against WeMade FOX and has added 4 more victories to his record, and even though his 34:3 record has been stained by a few losses, by winning, Flash is also climbing to the top of the most-wins ranking and is aiming to be in 1st place. He has been continuing his legendary record of getting 28 consecutive wins. Is there any other player who is as reliable to count on in Proleague?
Q: You made your first all-kill of the season while at the same time, successfully scoring a reverse all-kill. Your thoughts? A: It’s really been a long time since the last time I made a reverse all-kill last season. I’m happy that I finally did an all-kill, but I’m even happier that our team won.
Q: During your game against Mind, you made quite a bit of mistakes in the midgame. A: It seems that my opponent’s hands were going the way he wanted them to go, and since it was my first game, my hands didn’t really move that well, so my judgements became rather cloudy. But starting from the midgame, my hands started to move better, so it seems that my true potential appeared there.
Q: The “God’s move” in which you turned the tables with drops seemed to help you out a lot. A: To my judgment, that seemed to be the only solution for that situation. After I scanned his base, I happened to find one whole area that was an opening for an attack. I aimed for that spot and entered that area, which was a huge help in order to win. [T/N: Mind: *Currently repeatedly slapping himself across the face*]
Q: Truthfully, didn’t it seem like you in a really big situation where it seemed impossible to make a comeback? A: I almost gave up too in the middle of the game. However, there have been many cases where I won a bit mysteriously in the past in broadcasted games. With the basis of having many of those kinds of experiences in the past, although I was at a disadvantage, not giving up was a huge help to me. Since my mission was to do my best, I thought that I would just deal with any situation that came my way and do my best so that my team could win was the major driving force of why I didn’t give up. [T/N: A statement that Boxer would be proud of. Take notes, other players out there!]
Q: When was the moment where you knew that you could perform a reverse all-kill? A: During my game against BaBy, while I was destroying his bases, I thought, “I’m the only one who will win this game, huh” to myself. [T/N: Flash’s thoughts while he destroys his opponents, interesting…]
Q: You’re on the road to getting the 1st place most wins position along with Bisu. A: Bisu hyung said to me, “Let’s go together”, and to be able to go together with him makes me really happy (laughs). Since Bisu hyung has his own matches after all, he will be adding even more wins to his record, so I better chase after him once more. [T/N: Oh Bisu, you’re too kind, letting Flash walk the same road as you! What better hyung could be out there? Well, there is firebathero…]
Q: You wore Violet’s uniform today; is there any special reason behind that? A: Violet hyung’s empty spot in the practice house is truthfully speaking, a huge loss to us. Of course I am sorry towards Violet hyung, and he’s doing well and everything, but since he has to deal with a lot of things now, it seems really regrettable. Even though it was a small thing to do, I wanted to lighten up Violet hyung’s spirit. I thought that when he sees my victory ceremony, won’t he be happy? It would be great if he cheered up after seeing us win. [T/N: Not gonna lie, Flash’s words felt like they stabbed my heart here. I feel all heavy inside now… ㅠㅠ]
Q: How did you spend the Lunar New Year’s holidays? A: I spent it at home and spent a lot of time hanging out with friends that I didn’t see in a long time. Truthfully speaking, a lot of my friends are cramming and waiting for another chance to repeat their college entrance exams, so it would be nice if they cheered up. I think that they are friends that if they don’t give up, then they should be able to go to a good college. Since I personally really like futsal, I played it a lot with my friends, and since it seemed that they had a lot of physical strength for it, we came to Seoul and played soccer with my teammates, and it seems that I can keep on running for a really long time. I feel feelings of gratitude to my friends now (laughs). I played Yunnori [T/N: Yunnori is a traditional Korean game played during New Year’s where you throw 4 wooden sticks in the air and move your tokens around on a board. It’s really fun, and can get REALLY competitive- I’ve had the sticks and tokens thrown at my face in anger before. Yeah, it’s that intense. I miss playing it though; I haven’t played it in forever. ㅠㅠ] with my parents and family, and I spent my Lunar New Year’s holidays very significantly. However, no one gave me any New Year’s money. I used to receive a lot of money, but now since I’ve became an adult, after seeing that I earn enough for myself, my mom says to not give me any money and prevents my other relatives from doing so. Since I earn my own money now, it’s regrettable that I don’t get any New Year’s money anymore, but I’m okay with that (laughs). [T/N: Flash’s family: “Son, you earning your own dough now! How about YOU give some to US now? Pleeease? You make even more than all of us combined together!” Flash: “…” And man, Flash likes to talk. He’s a total chatterbox.]
Q: Any last words you want to say? A: Today since I came out and won wearing Violet hyung’s uniform, I’m really happy. Truthfully, since this is pretty much the only thing I can do for him, I’m really sorry to Violet hyung and am worried about him. Thankfully, I hear that he’s doing a lot better though recently. We always keep in touch with each other, and it’s a huge relief that I won since I prepared a ceremony for Violet hyung in order to make him smile, and if he saw me winning today then that would be great, and it would also be great if he got well soon so that we can meet again and laugh together, talk to noisily to each other, and spend our time together enjoyably again. [T/N: Flash… What a noble friend you are! But looks like we get no update about your health as well, since tons of people are curious about your wrist. :/]

Congrats to KT on getting another win, even though it was all just Flash... You need to step up more and get your game together, Flash's teammates! >>;;

Shine: "But isn't that just-" Coaching staff: "Shut up Shine!! No one cares about what you have to say. Plus, it's my master plan, so everything will work out perfectly.

Midas and BaBy: "......D:" ![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/l5bIa.jpg) *After Flash slaughtered everyone on WeMade* Yellow: "OMFG FLASH I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. <3" Flash: "That's great Yellow...

Those are some serious MANVIBES right there. ![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/a8ysR.jpg) KT has acquired 2 young new players, and Yellow is in pure, pure joy, along with a pleased Flash for finally getting some help. Srats is totally embarrassed by Yellow though. ![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/BrodN.jpg) Flash: "For Young Ho, I mean Jeong Ho!! Come to think of it, we even have a Jin Ho on our team too."

RAK for Violet . Get well soon. FIGHTING!!!

Flash <3 What an awesome gesture for Violet.
Thanks for translating!

Violet rules, KT rules, Flash rules, and IT rules that Flash won for KT to lift Violet's spirits.

![[image loading]](http://img824.imageshack.us/img824/8333/33753461.png) Violet tweeted the morning of that match about how he felt sad when he saw pictures of his team without him.

Aww, poor Violet! But it's nice to see that he watches his beloved team very intently, he must've been so happy to see Flash's ceremony for him.

Reach is broader than all his teammates even without a jacket.  It's really too bad bout Violet, I hope he gets well soon!
|
"He has been continuing his legendary record of getting 28 consecutive wins." What does this mean? Flash only has 7 straight wins.
|
Take that, people who call Flash boring and bland! He's a talkative player who's always thinking about his bros before himself.
|
|
Yay thank you for translating the interview! (T/N notes were awesome too =D) Flash is amazing. A combination of thoughtful, funny, mature, and of course, godness. <3 <3 <3 I hope Jeongho will feel loved~~ Hopefully he'll get better soon and come back wearing that jacket! (Whoa. You're right. They could be brothers! Jinho, Jeongho, and Yeongho!)

I believe that is purely TvT, where he broke the record for consecutive wins in one matchup. He's on a 13 game winning streak right now. 28 was his old record where he passed up oov's 27 tvz wins.

So many interesting pics lol
Thank you for translating. <3 Flash and Violet

by the way, the interview was awesome. thank you so much for translating. I'm really appreciate :D

Not to mention Shine is in some kind of afterstreak slump, and Roro isn't that much better either. 4pool may sound an easy task for us spectators - but they've got a huge pressure up there.

Great interview, and I really loved the picture compilation in the spoilers <3
It's great that Flash dedicated those wins to Violet, with Flash representing you, how can you lose to any sickness! On a side note: I hope Violet gets better soon and we hear more about how the treatment is commencing >_>

And if you happen to win, you're a hero because you've just saved your team from the massive problem that Flash is.
P.S.: Holy shit why they didn't send Yellow. T_T Isn't he better that Perfective? T_T Or at least is he really worse? I think no. T_T

Hey guys, out of curiosity does this beat oov's 33-3 streak in PL or no..?

Wow, Mantoss really looks gigantic in size compared to the other members of KT, as well as more manly;)

Amazing series! go flash! That was really nice of flash to do that for violet too
|
Thanks a lot Spica. <3 Flash and KT.
And that comeback against Mind was incredible.
|
|
Very nice interview, thanks for translating.
Reach I wanted to read an interview about you
|
i thought it was impossible to make a comeback in game 4 but Flash proved me wrong. I was thinking that the only way Flash can comeback is for Mind to make a critical mistake, but Mind played safe throughout the game up until lategame where he allowed Flash's dropship to sneak by. It was a genius move by Flash to crawl his way back.

What a lovely way to show support to Violet. <3 Flash!
Thanks for translating!

Great player and person! Once in a lifetime player

Pretty sure that was only 22, no (15 if you count GOM-games too)?

Thanks a ton, very interesting interview!
Seriously Flash is such an amazing friend, saving Kal, trying to help Violet however he can...no wonder he has very good relationship with many other progamers.
And wtf is with Action, every picture of him is cracking me up lol.

They definitely don't count the gom tournaments. All I know is that Flash broke Oov's old TvZ winstreak with his TvT winstreak as far as the koreans are concerned. If it's less wins than I remember then Flash is even closer to breaking his own record.
|
Thanks for the photos! What a god tier Flash he is...
|
Even though I am a huge Flash fan I feel really sorry for mind. He was playing so well in all of his games and it appeared like he prepared really hard.
|
Wearing Violet's jersey and reverse all-killing is too awesome. I always enjoyed Flash's play, even though I have a personally dislike for Terrans (blame Hwasin for that, fuck you game-fixer!), I'm now a fan.

he is also so nice that he's going to visit prison during his free time to cheer up inmates. apparently he has a lot of free time cause he doesnt play bw anymore. upstanding guy.

Am I misunderstanding the 28 game win streak somehow? His database page says he's on a streak of 7 wins.
