We are a team made of hardworking players, it's easily to dismiss KT players as paper thin and not consistent in their game. From a roster made out of players who span from the days where Luxury, ChoJJa and fOrGG once reside and even the Storm Zerg. You may ask yourself this, what makes KT a team that is different from others?
Following with the win we had last year proleague and the criticism beforehand when kt started from the bottom and chase to the top with our great efforts we were able to win the biggest nemesis KT has always been locked in to battle with that is Skt1 . What is the Ace Factor? For once I can tell you it's not Simon Cowell definition of the X Factor. It's simple we have Flash that is the terminator sent from Skynet from the future sent to terminate us and all our existence. Jokes aside Flash has been demolishing any players that have dared to step into his field of vision and challenge him .
So what if Best had the great head to head record against Flash? Flash proved in the proleague finals that he will not lose no matter what the odds is and destroyed SKT1 best in the normal sets and ace match. What's so special about Lee young ho aka God, Final Boss one may enquire? Lets dwell in to the history of these young amazing player. Flash initially started out not as a player with solid mechanics like we know now, Standard boring and really mechanical, hell his name should be called Cheese flash especially back in his debut in KTF it's really rare to not see flash trying to get the advantage by making a proxy barracks some where in the middle of map to try and kill you off if you never paid attention to what he is doing.
Playing unorthodox game is the staple of flash games back in 2008 As the young lee young ho started out getting famous that way .Also not to forget that bisu was also stop from flash winning his third msl title after all flash being the genius kid he was is not going to allow these pretty guy get all the credits .
It's natural that bisu fan's hate him after all these annoying kid defeated their Taek shin(Editor's not:lol yong taek) and still Flash is the superior today. Bisu just loses to flash everytime he goes carrier. Seriously could you ever get any better bisu ?. Bisu fan's probably started buying voodoo dolls in preparation of the next game if the two met with each other and starts poking needles in to the voodoo doll ,hoping flash will get sick and auto loses in every bisu v flash game . After all the so call untouchable bisu can't lose to cheeses right ? These game proves them wrong. Flash is the cheese and he will cheese his way out if he wants to .
What has Flash added to the numerous pool cheese, mechanical, mech boring style that everyone is yawning about? The mech play in TvZ of course and people thought fantasy is the one who started out the TvZ mech play and that is completely wrong. Iloveoov who was the one who started terran mech in TvZ and that's another story. Flash v Calm in a game where flash just made goliaths and proceeds to steam rolled Calm as if hydra are weak against goliath who needs siege tank when I am flash?
Flash is a phenomenal player, you either hate him, love him, envy him but he is just the man for kt, the ultimate weapon. He's still kt's number one fire power in all other forms he is the one unstoppable, Other players falter under pressure but for Flash instead when under pressured performs much more better in his games compared to other players . One can called that an anomaly or a trait that's solely owned by flash . Flash with his renewed exoskeleton hand installation thanks to skynet never ending support in helping our flash, is always kept to the latest updated version. Would also mean one thing he either starts doing weird cheeses again that people haven't seen before and it's a time for flash to strike off all his target list these year because the terminator is back in action.
Time will tell whether Flash will heal back in time to continue his reign, but I have out most confidence Flash is already ready to unleash his terminator brigade to whoever dare's challenge him .
Playing KT is like opening pandora box because you never know what's going to happen, so much potential games could turn from a snore fest in to a awesome games that would leave your jaw hanging till the end of each games. Our zerg lines has always been part of the hate fest by many other team fans sure our zergs line's aren't that great compared to Zero and Neo geo Bonjwa Soulkey one two punch combo. KT Zerg's may not give the aura Savior in the past gave during his dominance that is the aura of a destroyer but we do know that our players made of pure talent that are just waiting to explode given the right time and the right place .
Hoejja one of KT's home grown zerg players started to play very well during proleague games and the proleague finals . Looking at hoejja's record currently he may not look as if he is an asset to the team but he does wins game when required to do so. It doesn't have to be in a convincing fashion winning wars has never been clean it's always been done dirty. Hoejja has been able to convert wins for kt numerous times if you read my previous article kt's beginning I have done a numerous coverage of Hoejja's come back win from winning Ggaemo so flash can be send out to play the ace match and S2 .
Hoejja has the capability to win games and have to started to see him playing the way he should be playing in practice matches. It could be because of nerves and anxiety that may have stop hoejja from playing awesome games in proleague matches but that all doesn't matter because hoejja has been doing very well these year proleague and he is going to carry these win in to these years proleague. Maybe it's an act of revelation for hoejja, As he saw Nal_Ra putting a lot of hard work in to his game as seen in the old boy series change his perspective and made him a better player. That could be true with his recent performance.
Action as a young estro player made himself famous with that famous defiler defence versus flash with his amazing late game in that game even flash was in disbelief that he was playing with such a high level zerg coming from action who was known for his late game prowess. From a KT fan perspective Action has his up's and down and when he is doing well amazing games like Action vs Bisu is created and when he is at low, games like Action vs By.Sun comes up to my mind which nearly cost the proleague finals for us. Still I am keeping tabs on action hoping that he keeps improving because KT really needs their Zerg to be in top and action better performs if he doesn't wanted to be traded in for food .
Crazy Hydra has always been the ZvZ specialist ,as seen in his records in woongjin, his record's may not show much but there is great prospect in him and also CH managed to do an All kill before leaving Woongjin. Crazy hydra has been a miss hit and unpredictable at some times there's spark of brilliance in his game when he managed to do an all killed against MBC .
There is definitely great amount of talent in CH and I am sure with enough time given crazy hydra would even be a better player than he is before after all in the pre nate msl season he came second to firefist and a silver medalist .Obviously Ch definitely is not a scrub and is a dangerous player if trained properly and given the right coaching . CH will be a key player in KT rolster and I wish to see him play more standard games and not weird strategies against player like Bisu any more . Failed lurker drop in to another fail lurker drop . Come on CH, I know you can do better than that . Still Crazy hydra has his moments and he has taken games from players which are considered to be much better than him overall such as Zero, Mind and even Goojila(kal)
Perfective The young zerg in KT Rolster almost had a perfect run which was defeated by Fantasy, That game versus Fantasy had me thinking maybe he had only practice that kind of strategy or was it nerves or did he panic. Considering he had the advantage when he destroyed a lot of Fantasy MnM force he could have taken a third and expanded from there but he didn't and opting to destroy fantasy with only his muta's which failed terribly could mean that perfective is really new to experiencing such situation or to put it more exactly not accustomed to performing in games that has so much weight in it that he has to win .Perfective in my opinion ,may not be look highly by everyone in the array of KT Rolster weapons system. But he is still a player that has great potential and raw talent. Looking at perfective records in which he has
1v1 Record: All: 9-12 (42.86%) Last 10 (old -> recent): L L W L L W W W W L
vT: 1-5 (16.67%) Last 10 (old -> recent): L L W L L L
vZ: 3-6 (33.33%) Last 10 (old -> recent): L L W L L L L W W
vP: 5-1 (83.33%) Last 10 (old -> recent): W L W W W W
He is definitely not impressive on paper, with the recent acquisition of Woongjin zerg coaches it's definitely going to help young perfective in his game after all these zerg coaches spawned and train players such as Zero and Neo.G_Soulkey in to the player's they are now .
Kim Dae Yeob is no longer bearing his almighty chin and to all to the people who love the chin he had. It's sadly gone, I am still sadden that the thought that one surgery can change the person out look as a whole, Stats now resembles as Harry porter while no longer having that glorious chin of his. Although he may have lost that look of him we all have got familiar with during the whole proleague season, It's safe to say that Stat's is still stat's, No way on earth would his skill diminish because the lost of his chin and I bet stats will not allow that to happen .
Stats as a home grown player holds the same similarity like hoejja have been with the team for a very long time and since violet no longer is able to take place as KT Protoss ace. Kim Dae Yob has no choice but to step it up and hold the fort for violet and Stats has performed really well in these year proleague finals, winning key matches that are important for us to send out our Ace Lee Young Ho. Also winning the dreaded Protoss killer in every matches they meet, of course I was talking about Zero with a 4-1 record against him. Also how could one forget that stats was the guy who all killed SKT1 back to back in winner league.
Kim Dae Yeob has tremendous potential in him and I hope to see him become a much better player for our team and to be consistent in his winnings and even win an OSL because he is just as good as any protoss player out there, in the ranks of JangBi, Bisu and Stork. He is almost an S class player but is not able to find that switch to make him to do so. Hopefully with last year wins this will lighten up the flame in him to become the next unexpected protoss bonjwa in these year proleague.
I have always been a fan of mind even though he was a we made fox and regarded him as one of the best terran player next to flash. The come back kid, Mind has been always looking for redemption after winning the GomTV MSL season 3 at a tender young age of 15, he became satisfied and as a pro gamer, being satisfied can only mean one thing , you enter in to a comfort zone, and when you do that other players will start reaching to your level and than you will start wondering . How can these be happening. When I am the best terran korean player in broodwar, Shouted Mind.
Mind has been an inspiring story for me, Mind as a player who has earned the nickname Viper for being aggressive in his opening and is able to rattle his opponent to oblivion with his vicious cheeses and timing attack. One would have thought mind, would have been the number one terran and reality that is not true. Mind's recruitment in to KT can only mean one thing, Mind has a chance to prove again that he is a player worthy of that top seat he used to seat in and reign uncontested . It's his chance for redemption to be the top players he used to be and KT accepts minds with open arms as we are happy to house to two youngest msl champions under one roof .
My thoughts on the KT House, when both Mind and Flash are fighting in a TvT, everyone stops practising just to see how wonderful these two can go toe to toe with each other. If flash in his state isn't doing well, you can bet Mind isn't going to let down in any game, because after all mind plays for him self and only victory is what he is looking for. Mind is truly a frightening opponent to go up against in these year proleague.
BarrackS Hopefully we can see a renewed barracks with better a game plan over all and I like to see him get fielded more this time.
Tempest Same goes to tempest, he may not get the limelight like all the KT players do, but I believe he is still essential to the team and should be fielded just like the rest.
The last remaining hero of KTF legacy and has been credited by Stats for helping him in the PvP games and build orders. Seems like Reach has found his place in KT as a protoss coach and that's to me in another way of passing down the legacy of Mantoss.
bullshit,Reach rapes everything, hes almost got his Reach hair back! MANTOSS MANTOSS MANTOSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Shining Light
by BLinD-RawR
While to the regular person The Shining Light may be Flash, in reality its is KT's Head Coach/Manager Coach Lee.
Coach Lee is everything that represents KT Rolster, he is the rope that binds everyone together, he is willing to do anything for his players not just his Aces.
Coach Lee's decision making during proleague matches can be quite confusing at times especially on who to send out for crucial games,his new favorite being Perfective who is as we have seen in the playoffs of the past season(and the crucial set 6 back in R1 when we saw the first appearance of him even when we were at last place)to be quite the finisher.He brought Hoejja back into the light by fielding him games and showing his practice bonjwaness when they needed him the most during R6 when Flash was resting.
He never believed it was just practice but also the morale of the player that decided if he was going into the booth or not.
Coach Lee, I know what I say here does no Justice to your actions and the fact that I suck at writing, I salute to you for being The most awesome manager/coach ever!
Zerg coaches by Sawamura
Great appreciation is also extended to our wonderful zerg coaches, for improving our zerg's performance, we know these section doesn't do much justice . With the help from the Woongjin zerg coaches our recent performance our zerg's has improved tremendously in last year proleague finals and these only can mean one thing . There is a great chance that our zerg's player's are going to start kicking ass soon.
KT has been through a lot, it's time for us to reap the award and to stand proud in the limelight it's our turn to savour the taste of winning that other teams has been receiving for such a long time. Its time to dominate the Proleague once again. KT ROLSTER FIGHTING!!!!
and every other KT fan, tbh, am I seriously the only one who noticed the corelation between hoejja's growth and KT getting CH >AND< the zerg coach form wongjin?? fellow KT fans, i love you all but why are noone noticing it
Oh and this article is batshit awesome <'3
though I really shouldn't complain since I've been a lazy bum and never wrote anything
Yeah... um. No offense, but you might want to get a 3rd editor. Unless it's just not done yet. But really, you both need to know where to put spaces (AFTER, not BEFORE punctuation). All of the "blah ,blah" and "blah ?blah" hurts my brain.
Otherwise, nicely done. Of course it's part of my SKT blood to resent your team and all its fans, but I can recognize a worthy rival when I see one. Oh, and speaking of which, there's a KT fan meeting next wednesday. Hopefully I can get in and sabotage get a signed shirt or something
Wow the grammar hurts my eyes lol. this is the truth though, KT gonna pwn everyone! especially with mind a solid second terran and hoejja the rising lefthand oh God we are going to be unstoppable.

I noticed it too. wonder what actually the secret of new zerg coach. HoeJJa really show great improvement last season. His game vs ggaemo when I almost think he will lost it but then he manage make comeback and win. HoeJJa fighting!!!
To sawamura and blind-rawr, great write-up. Thank you so much You guys are awesome. now, can't wait for new season start and also violet make comeback. KT fighting!!!!!
Might suck again at the first rounds, but we'll be winning an epic finals again with Flash, Mind, Stats, Violet, Hoejja, and CH/Perfective/Action against the KeSPA Dream Team .
Have to give their zerg coach from stars the credit, before him the zerg line was fodder, after he came hoejja started doing stuff, and perfective actually became useful

to be honest , zerg coach suggested to crazy hydra weird builds against bisu and bisu made CH look like a D+ iccup player .

Well their current uniform is clad in white except the kt rolster logo in the middle of it , Since CJ and STX has started changing their uniforms too . I believe kt will follow the same movement too.
@BlindRAWR
Reach growing his hair back does not equal to reach on super man mode :D.

I did wrote about the Woongjin zerg coaches at perfective section and also if that is not enough I have written a small thank you note to the zerg coaches after coach lee shining light . Hope you two are happy now :D.
I have to disagree. Basically, this is prompted by competitive impulse and nothing more.
In modern terms though, I can disagree with the backing of an earthquake or two on the scene. If Flash can make a team win, then JD will be able to make his new stud jacket take him to the playoffs. Flash has been JD's superior in the past, but so so much has changed. The poor boy has just finished surgery. Months of JD's practice, consciously trying to supplant a temporarily crippled player at the top of the heap can only create results. Nobody is sure what Flash will come back with, but nobody expects the bonjwa in the flesh.
And we still have the other cohorts. There are players who could have been serious contenders in those seasons that were moot on account of Flash. There are players who were waiting to blossom, and who have been practicing as much as we have sat worrying about their futures.
Every line that has looked really deep in the past has still shown flaws. If a certain player isn't firing at a key moment, a team can lose a match. If this is a player who isn't as experienced under duress, there can be problems firing at all. It only takes a little psychological slipup to turn a whole match.
I really appreciate you posting this before the season, but I think the angle is a little misplaced. Do you know the proleague schedule even? Do you know when the finals are? There is no way you can be serious about this claim. No way in damn no way.

Man, you can't say that the reason your team will win is that your team is unpredictably good. As an STX fan, I have had plenty of firsthand experience in the particular field.
When I was talking about PL's playoffs I was just trying to illustrate how little we know about the upcoming season. How can one make a reasonable suggestion about the season's conclusion at this point in time.

Um. Yeah. That's what a hype thread is about. No shit there's no way to say who's actually going to win or do well. The whole point of this is just to make people excited and competitive, which it did. There's really nothing more to it. If someone makes an "ACE will win proleague" thread, are you going to go and shoot them down for being enthusiastic? lol

Every line that has looked really deep in the past has still shown flaws. If a certain player isn't firing at a key moment, a team can lose a match. If this is a player who isn't as experienced under duress, there can be problems firing at all. It only takes a little psychological slipup to turn a whole match.
I really appreciate you posting this before the season, but I think the angle is a little misplaced. Do you know the proleague schedule even? Do you know when the finals are? There is no way you can be serious about this claim. No way in damn no way.
I find it intriguing that these question was not posted in the other , Why XXXXX will win the proleague thread except blindrawr and mine , On another note , since you asked for an explanation here's my take on the situation , Do I know when the proleague is happening ? Rumours states that it will be starting on the 19th as link in these thread http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=283307 , Do I know when the finals are ? Obviously yes after winner league , Why can't i be serious in my claims , have I boastfully stated that my players are all flash bonjwa like material ? Than why can't i be serious with my claims than as each of these players had potential . Mind is the only player as young as flash to win a msl . How do you know , if he just decides he had enough and started destroying everyone in these year proleague .
Hence the reason , why I claim my team is such in a way a pandaro box , our team maybe weak but that doesn't mean our players has to follow your assumption that weak players will stay as weak players . They may have grown better and you can never tell until they started playing the games .
Man, you can't say that the reason your team will win is that your team is unpredictably good. As an STX fan, I have had plenty of firsthand experience in the particular field.
When I was talking about PL's playoffs I was just trying to illustrate how little we know about the upcoming season. How can one make a reasonable suggestion about the season's conclusion at this point in time.
I didn't say my team will for sure win the proleague , I was just hyping it like all other hype thread's do.
I figured some discussion would do the same. I appreciate the sentiment bro.

I have to disagree. Basically, this is prompted by competitive impulse and nothing more.
In modern terms though, I can disagree with the backing of an earthquake or two on the scene. If Flash can make a team win, then JD will be able to make his new stud jacket take him to the playoffs. Flash has been JD's superior in the past, but so so much has changed. The poor boy has just finished surgery. Months of JD's practice, consciously trying to supplant a temporarily crippled player at the top of the heap can only create results. Nobody is sure what Flash will come back with, but nobody expects the bonjwa in the flesh.

nobody can predict the future,we make guesses on what we have and yes take that data and mold it to suit our own biases sometimes( just sometimes,I don't let myself take it too far unless I'm trying to be funny).
in the end its just 2 peoples beliefs on why the team that they support will win the season and some people choose to share the belief and some like you don't but it doesn't invalidate it.

You do realized kt has always been dominated and trash around even though on paper we had the best players during 2008 proleague ? Yellow,Reach,Nal Ra ,Sync and yet we got smashed by skt1 ? . How are we the evil empire than, we lost luxury decent zerg player , forgg is gone , violet is sick and down with leukemia , Only flash,stats and with the recruitment of mind as a second terran player to increase our chances of winning and our zergs lines are shaky but strong will .
Skt1 overall has better protoss players and zergs compared to our kt , in other word's your ground is much more covered than kt's ways of doing thing which we do rely getting a 3-3 to send our best player out . Rather than an outright win.

Look at that title collection SKT has and the pure amount of domination in regular Proleague, you'll see why you are portrayed as the one with the Iron fist. Also, you have Bisu.

Oh yeah, my party is definitely trashed by your one and only piece of evidence that stems from an unrelated tournament from 4 years ago. lol
This is Proleague. This is Bisu's playground. 20-3 (87%) against Terrans in PL this last year, so no, I don't think your precious little Mind stands much of a chance ^__^

Hmm we can agree to disagree on that..
Btw were I the only one who noticed how much KT loved icarus last season? Action did beast there in WL (watch his games vs Stork and bisu on that map for reference), flash and stats liked it aswell.

To be fair, Flash only managed a paltry 63.64% winrate vP last year compared to his 75% vZ and 81% vT. That's almost as bad as JD's vP (62%) last year, lol.

All the practice in the world won't save them from the fully recovered Flash. (Hopefully)
I don't foresee another WL round like last time, not to mention it's shorter. Then in play-offs you have to rely on people like Hoejja performing in more than just one game.. hardly ideal. 3 of the weaker and easier games are gone replaced by 1 hard one, and KT already struggled in normal PL. Flash was already slipping a bit late last season; and Stats barely a viable second ace, meaning a lot more sniping to come.
Every team looks stronger than last year really imo, except STX; and SKT1 are kinda neither up or down. Even ACE are better. Hell, even for ace matches every team apart from ACE has a player who is able to beat Flash in a one off game half of the time.

People like a hoejja are reliable in my opinion ,sure he doesn't show amazing games in the past however his current games he has shown that he is not a scrub like many thought he is , Hoejja took down players who are better than him in many ways . Maybe I am optimistic , I have complete confidence hoejja will do well these year.
KT won the whole thing while losing two of their best players -- I wonder how far any of the other teams last year in the playoffs would've gotten without the #3 and #4. We're the only team in the league besides maybe CJ that plugs in random players and somehow becomes championship calibre. Though I guess the difference between CJ and KT is that we actually win the championships.
Wow. I dunno how I missed this article. Blind and Sawa you guys make us proud. KT will 3-peat. Nothing anyone can say will shake my belief in this prediction. Everything went wrong last year. Violet's cancer, Stats' slump, fOrGG retiring, Flash performing a notch below his 2010 form, the terrible R1 and R2 results. Yet through it all KT pulled through and gave us clutch performance after clutch performance. I don't think KT will be in 1st place at the end of the regular season like they were in 2009-2010, but come playoff time every team must fear KT.

Left hand bonjwa is going to make the people who criticised him as a under performing player swallow their words .
In the remembrance of Luxury , I know people who are still angry about the match fixing, to me you are always a hero for kt as a zerg that actually had great talent and capability and as a solid zerg always manages to deliver us kt the wins . It's just sad to see your career ended like that , reading your message on your reflection of that single game you agreed to match fix in . Made me eyes teary. It's a cursed or a plague that has occur in the bw scene that until now still reek it's venom to us survivors of it .

You even won a msl http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/korean/leagues/161_Lost_Saga_MSL which was the greatest achievement you had , having you and young flash leading the team was the greatest combination ktf could ever pull out from their roster . I like to see it , as not the end of your young career and I have already forgiven you .
The damage has been done, not only talented players like hwasin,upmagic and you was pulled down to hell with savior , the bw scene almost got killed because of the match fixing scandal . I believe the bw scene has shrink twice it size due to effect of these scandal too . However , that doesn't tarnish the glory and talent you brought to your games . Indeed you are a hero on the same level as Flash . Maybe even greater if these match scandal thing didn't happen at all .
I believe a talent may have has his name tarnish in a certain section of his career however that doesn't block off other roads where you can shine . Luxury like your name I wish you have lots of luxury in life and a bright career in other fields . You are free now Luxury . Spread your wings and fly to victory .

hoejja got his winning inspiration from watching jaehoon break out of his own slump last season (they're pretty close and they also share the same "good in practice not good in televised matches" debuff)
reach likes to tease the younger kids when they make weird noises while they play
flash is the best offracer among all the progamers (but we knew that already)
hoejja thought mind was good but didn't expect him to be even better when he actually saw him play
hoejja thinks wooki is just as good as stats in terms of skill
stats doesn't like having a competitor for his #1 toss spot (lol)
it was violet's birthday a couple of days ago so all the kt kids went over to his house and hoejja said he was looking very healthy
they even talked about sc2 for a bit, sungchoon is diamond, hoejja can't really play that much because of time constraints and is not very good. he says that the progamers who do play a lot (the players who didn't qualify for the PL playoffs were given as an example) have told him that it won't take too long for bw players to catch up

And no, I'm not Korean. I'm Chinese American. I've been learning Korean for about 2 years, but I still kind of fail at it.

still awesome that you went though. did you tell barracks you were not korean?
Seems like Stats and Mind are having a little rivalry between both of them , they were actually ask by the coaches to play a short and fun match because they were afraid it was getting a little late , but both of them ignored the message and played it like a real match . Judging from the report from optical shot , that match must have been one hell of a experience to watch it carriers and ground troops and dt's dropping on mind expo to get the advantage .
Thanks to optical shot again for translating the interview.

Does this mean that I, too, can learn Korean and maybe just maybe one day communicate with Flash directly :O
FUCK YEAH KT !!!!!!!!!! I was worried for a moment because of Flash's recent wrist issues, but now he seems operationnal, I'm looking forward to see him play again!
It's simple we have Flash that is the terminator sent from Skynet from the future sent to terminate us and all our existence.

Time to bump these thread up , Violet's returning back to kt and we just got our first win !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KT 3 peat I believe , make it happen please .
Can't wait...I think both teams are looking as strong as ever. Flash and Fantasy have never been this dominant before. Hoejja, Action and Crazy-Hydra have shown some stellar results and Bisu and Best have probably been practicing really hard. Looking forward to one hell of a series!
Ace card didn't do well today but I guess it's okay and skt1 was the better team today . Here's hoping kt zergs will continue to dominate the scene and play well throughout the whole season . Stats could have just played standard and I really can't understand why a player like stats would have gone for that kind of strategy .
Can't blame on flash he gave the fight of his life versus fantasy and Bisu .Props to flash,Hoejja,Action,Stats,CH,Mind,Wooki and Pman + Reach,Yellow and Nal_Ra you will always be my favourite bw team .
