Edit: As someone pointed out, due to my stupidity, since the source is NOT from fomos, I can't translate it.Translation of the Chinese translation of January article from DES following Jangbi's OSL win. Hope you got that.

Samsung Khan's Coach Kim Ga Eul (January): "I hope this win can infuse some much needed energy for ESports."


After (P)JangBi became the lone protoss in the OSL, he received very special treatment from January. Although it was the offseason, she asked the team to work on preparation for the OSL.

She allowed her players to take their vacation early following the PL playoffs. But asked them to return to help (P)Stork and (P)JangBi for their OSL matches.

They began be holding an in-team ranking tournament on the OSL maps. Because it was the offseason, she discarded all PL maps not used in the OSL. She also gave personal training for Stork and Jangbi.

When Stork got eliminated in the Ro16, all concentration went to (P)JangBi. (T)Reality, (T)TurN, (T)Sharp, (T)Kop, and other terrans simulated Flash in serving as Jangbi's practice partners. When Jangbi advanced to the semi-finals, she brought in Khan's zergs to help practice. Jangbi became very familiar with the 4 OSL maps, and his training went smoothly.

During Chuseok, everyone still helped (P)JangBi willingly. This really helped with the preparation. In addition, (P)Stork, (P)Grape, (P)Brave, etc. spent their time researching strategies, and came up with builds for every single map. Because of their dedication and hard work, Jangbi managed to once again bring about The Legend of the Fall.

Samsung Khan's Coach Kim Ga Eul (January): "The reason for Jangbi's OSL win is not due to some sort of magic regarding the Legend of the Fall. This is the fruits of hard work and practice. I also hope Jangbi's win can infuse some much needed energy for ESports."

End Note: January's first name in Korea means "Autumn"...

Sorry but I think the more pertinent reason would be:

this thread title basically spoiled the results for me, since I haven't seen the games yet.. so thnx.

highly doubt January would be saying the whole team prepared for the OSL if jangbi did not win.

it's just courtesy.. not really a big deal, I don't mind that much, but was really looking forward to it.. I needed a little more time to "prepare" for these epic finals.

left-hand side of teamliquid is important for ALL updates, especially SC2.. ofc I'm going to naturally glance over the BW section.. and when you see: January: The Entire Team.. yes, that insinuates the results without even opening the thread.. is there anything from Coach Park? No. Even if there was, it wouldn't be posted, because fantasy didn't win.. so it could only mean one thing.

anyway, I'll probably still watch!

Terribly sorry. Mistake on my part, and I'm normally generally aware of keeping spoilers unspoiled.

Unfortunately, I cannot find a place to change the title. If there is a way please tell me. Or if a mod is reading, please change it.

the fomos article also mentions that they would have team ranking matches on the osl maps instead of proleague maps, in order to help out jangbi and stork (who were in the osl ro16) and the proleague has ended already

... how did it spoil the results for you... all it states is that the whole team worked together to help JangBi with the OSL... doesn't mean that with the help he has 100% win chance....

Well there's your issue right there.

But really, for a Legend of the Fall/Jangbi fairy tale I-beat-godyoungho run, you KNOW spoilers are going to be all over TL. There's something wrong with your priorities if you're looking for sc2 updates before you know the results of said final

that sucks that the finals were spoiled for cca1ss1e, but thats really cool! im so glad that Khan banded together like this to help out JangBi! I wonder- how much of this happens with other teams? the fact that there was an interview about it suggests that this isn't the standard thing to do. Can't wait for proleague to start back up!

don't see how this is a spoiler, it could have applied to Fantasy too if he won

The Legend of the Fall is important to January. Her name is 김가을; kim ka-eul. ka-eul in korean means fall. And it's just ironic that she has 2 very good protoss on her team. Truly is the Legend of the Fall..

I've been trying to avoid spoilers all day till Nevake/Moktira uploaded and watching the small vod thread, but this thread title kinda gave it away fyi... (I just watched the series and am now posting)

It really did feel to me like JangBi was well refined in his games, so this doesn't come as a surprise. Too bad Stork wasn't able to represent like JangBi did :/

Not to mention her two tosses both won OSLs... in the fall.

It's weird, I innately know January's Korean name being Autumn, but when I think in English I just forget about it. Truly shows that sometimes the best stories are real life stories.

Yeah, the described team support that January provided for her players sounds exactly like the kind of support the Bisu claimed was lacking when he snapped a little in that interview a few months back.

Regardless, it was nice to see the entire team working for and enjoying the win.

Hyuk and Soo got pretty far in the OSL and Bisu couldn't even beat Hyvaa in the offline prelims. SKT have the best training facilities and coaches of any team. Bisu's problems are not due to a lack of support from his team.

That's why when you know you're going to miss the live final you go straight to the small vod thread via bookmark/search bar/other source and don't read anything else

But it would still be nice if there wasn't a big spoiler poking you right in the eyes a day after the finals.


don't see how this is a spoiler, it could have applied to Fantasy too if he won

Hypothetically, yes. However, when was the last time you heard something like this come out of the loser's camp the day after the final? There you go.

I'm not complaining for myself since I saw the matches live, but a spoiler is a spoiler.

I honestly followed BW fairly regularly during my time in school(way too many 5am wakeups to watch leagues and vods). Once SC2 came out, I practically stopped watching BW in its entirety.

Now, I'm going to start watching again if the average game is of the same caliber.

Huge difference between what Khan did and stuff you said. Yeah, players generally share strategies within the team. But keep in mind that this was in the offseason, the players prepped for a map that doesn't appear in the PL(Pathfinder), the players emulated particular players(Soo, Flash, Fantasy), and came up with builds that counter said players.

I do think KT and SKT1 do similar stuff as they have tons of money. But I'm not sure about other teams. I remember a long time ago in the OSL semi-final between Stork and Best, Best practiced with all his protoss teammates, while Stork practiced with tosses from all the other teams, and even used BOs that came from non-teammates.

Really think if you cared about spoilers you would just try to avoid tl until you watched the series. No matter how well the mods take care of it you'll always be in danger of being spoiled. Its just the whole nature of a site dedicated to following progaming.

Autumn is one of the four temperate seasons. Autumn marks the transition from summer into winter usually in September (Northern Hemisphere) or March (Southern Hemisphere) when the arrival of night becomes noticeably earlier.

Calm down. No one is forcing you to follow it. Its just a story line/tradition that's been with osl for a while.

Plus even though fall technically starts on the 23rd in Korea its near the end of summer/beginning of fall.

Starts on the 22nd of September, at the equinox.

Technically we are in summer for 5 more days.

This whole superstitious thing is not necessary, but that's just my opinion. And what, when Nal'Ra won it it was what, legend of the winter?

Wow, that's quite good support for Jangbi.

26 days he had to exclusively prep against Flash with his entire team.

That's what it takes to take down an injured Flash..

That's actually true, the thread where I assume baubo got this from has no source, but the picture of January has a big DES tag.

So here is a complete translation:

[image loading]

When Jangbi became the sole protoss representative in the Ro8, January took special care of him. During the off-season, she ordered the whole team to engage in preparations for the OSL.

When the playoffs for Proleague ended, she let the whole team go on holidays first. When the Ro16 started, the whole team helpen Stork and Jangbi prepare. January used the OSL map pool the do ranking matches in the team. Because the playoffs had ended, she stopped practice on the Proleague maps and let the whole team practice on OSL maps exclusively.

When Stork got eliminated, she let (4 korean names) emulate Flash to practice with Jangbi, and in the Semis she let the whole zerg line do the same. Jangbi had a good understanding of all 4 maps used, so the practice went very well.

During Korean thanksgiving, the whole team volunteered to help Jangbi, besides the terrans, Stork, grape and brave developed strategies for all starting positions on each map. Because of this meticulous training, Jangbi was able to make the Legend of the Fall come true.

January said: Jangbi's OSL win cannot just be explained by the legend or some curse (T/N: Kim Carrier predicted fantasy to win). It is because of his practice and efforts. I hope this championship and bring new life into eSports.

Huge difference between what Khan did and stuff you said. Yeah, players generally share strategies within the team. But keep in mind that this was in the offseason, the players prepped for a map that doesn't appear in the PL(Pathfinder), the players emulated particular players(Soo, Flash, Fantasy), and came up with builds that counter said players.

I do think KT and SKT1 do similar stuff as they have tons of money. But I'm not sure about other teams. I remember a long time ago in the OSL semi-final between Stork and Best, Best practiced with all his protoss teammates, while Stork practiced with tosses from all the other teams, and even used BOs that came from non-teammates.

Baubo: have you been able to find the Stork interview where he thanks all those protosses? I remember finding it really funny, and I wanted to find it again, but no amount of search fu could dig it up. It wasn't really worth starting a thread over, but since you're a translator, I was wondering if you had any tips... Thanks a lot.

By the way I'm so impressed with Jangbi, January, and the whole of Khan --- no wonder Jangbi was so confident. He must have been ready for anything.

Well by.Great lost to Hydra in the MSL final because January didn't know HOW to train him. And Stork embarrassed himself to Fantasy. January must be scratching her head and then came up with an individual league plan for her players. Honestly still loling that the team didn't know how to prepare for Great's MSL run.

This is the sort of team dedication that's needed for such a huge win, and it just goes to show that if you work hard you will reap the fruits of your success. Grats to JangBi for his victory!

This shows how a player's individual success may depend a lot sometimes on what kind of team they are in. It's usually better for you to be on a less pompous team with better teamwork, than an all-star team where every super star is its own island. Respect for January.

Its just that it looked like JangBi was a brave zealots charging forward into the enemy line and killing obstacles out of the way to save the destruction of Aiur while taking hits himself . Slowly fainting and losing psi power, he was chasing the very last Terran vulture out of the way but vulture turns around, grinned at him "HeHehe!". JB turns around, a huge crack creaks from the ground, everything in sloooooooow mooooooootiiiiiiiiiion, the dreaded arachnid glancing right through your soul with ray beam of terror, crawling forward one leg at a time..........*CLANK* *BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM* (sfx) poor bravelot got launched into the air by 1 thousand feet......"RESEARCH COMPLETE!", our hero strike back from hearing the order from the command of the Citadel, running on the debris of the rocks, diving into the fresh paints of the vehicle that the camera can only catch of a letter "F" faster than the Terran brat can finish the third "he". The crowd goes wild!!

"ESPORTS FANS AROUND THE WORLD, THIS IS YOUR CHAMPION!" Yelled out Kim Carrier!

And son, that its how the Legend of the Fall circa 2011 happened. Now lets try to focus on your quadruple overlords drop at these bases: 8, 5, back and front of 10, you can't beat the TaekShin family in the 2036 World StarLeague East Division* with multitask like that?"

"What's the point then, father Mae?"

"What do you mean?" Mae replied

"I mean, what's the point to play anymore if he'll attack me from 5 locations with stream of zealots into my bases anyways!" youngster Jae shouted in tears.

"Because I want to settle the score *echoes, echoes, echoes*, Mae said while point at the legendary TaekShin's poster at young Jae's practice room.

... how did it spoil the results for you... all it states is that the whole team worked together to help JangBi with the OSL... doesn't mean that with the help he has 100% win chance....

When SC2 came for BW, I cried. Now LoL/Dota2 comes for SC2, and I laugh. \o/

pretty sure

the article wasn't on fomos, but only on DES

do you guys actually check your sources or?


That's actually true, the thread where I assume baubo got this from has no source, but the picture of January has a big DES tag.

So here is a complete translation:

[image loading]

When Jangbi became the sole protoss representative in the Ro8, January took special care of him. During the off-season, she ordered the whole team to engage in preparations for the OSL.

When the playoffs for Proleague ended, she let the whole team go on holidays first. When the Ro16 started, the whole team helpen Stork and Jangbi prepare. January used the OSL map pool the do ranking matches in the team. Because the playoffs had ended, she stopped practice on the Proleague maps and let the whole team practice on OSL maps exclusively.

When Stork got eliminated, she let (4 korean names) emulate Flash to practice with Jangbi, and in the Semis she let the whole zerg line do the same. Jangbi had a good understanding of all 4 maps used, so the practice went very well.

During Korean thanksgiving, the whole team volunteered to help Jangbi, besides the terrans, Stork, grape and brave developed strategies for all starting positions on each map. Because of this meticulous training, Jangbi was able to make the Legend of the Fall come true.

January said: Jangbi's OSL win cannot just be explained by the legend or some curse (T/N: Kim Carrier predicted fantasy to win). It is because of his practice and efforts. I hope this championship and bring new life into eSports.

Khan hasn't been that GReAT these year after relying on so much of their rookies player to save their skin that's why to see them pull out this zero to hero scheme for jangbi is just mindblowing to me .
