The SKT and KT head coaches speak out on the SWL postseason finals match.

[image loading]


Lee Ji-Hoon of KT:

KT's Lee Ji-Hoon said: “We hope to shatter the curse of 2nd place that haunted our veterans Yellow and Reach. While the two were in the Air Force in the 09-10 season, we got SWL and SPL crowns. However, I'll only consider it a real championship when we win one with Reach and Yellow.”
He added, “Some fans have already brought up the veterans' curse, so we need to break the curse against SKT. Flash has already expressed his eagerness to win, and the entire team will work hard in unison. For the SWL playoff gold, we'll go all out.”


Park Young-Woon of SKT:

“KT's playstyle is extremely smart. But we have to show everyone that we play even smarter,” SKT's head coach Park Young-Woon said. “KT has veterans and new blood, strong aces and backups; their team's composition is solid.”
“Against KT, we always play with confidence, but we always peter out at the end of the match. It's given us experience. They have Flash, Stats, and Action among others, so it'll be a tough fight.”
Coach Park also added, “When KT plays against us, they always demonstrate deep analysis. Not only can they predict our players' strategies, they can analyze our lineups and playstyle. They can always pinpoint our strengths.”
He concluded: “Even though KT got a seed into the SWL playoff finals, we've fought our way up the playoffs, so we have a lot of practice. To a degree, we've found ways to keep our opponents in check. In the next few days, as long as we take our preparation to the next level, I'm confident we'll win.”

Coach Park with some praise for KT :D
Because when you left, Brood War was all spotlights and titans. Now, with the death of the big leagues, Brood War has moved to the basements and carparks. Now, Brood War is unlicensed brawls, lost teeth, and bloody fights for fistfulls of money - SirJolt

Does that mean that they will play Reach and Yellow with Stats and Flash?
If that happens then oov should play too.

He means with Reach and Yellow on the team, not necessarily played.

I think.

We can always hope.

Action chokes as usual
Reach comes in, two-kills and throws the next game going scouts-only
Flash comes for a laugh and throws a game going medic-only
Then the SECRET FINAL BOSS Yellow shows up and mops up the puny Bisu and Fantasy
Stats ends up spending the entire match on the sidelines bored, seeing how much stuff he can balance on his chinny-chin-chin
