Stats: What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/21CXV.jpg)
Following a 6 win streak with a 2 loss streak, KT Rolster’s Stats had a crisis of confidence. Even in the match again Air Force ACE, Stats didn’t give off the vibe of a sure-win card because he didn’t play well during his loss streak. There was a bit of pressure from losing to Kal before, but – with cool, collected play – Stats got his revenge. Stats broke his personal 2 loss win streak and simultaneously lifted KT to proleague’s first ever 200 win team, cementing its place in the lead.
Q: You broke your losing streak
Stats: The 2 loss streak felt surprisingly long. It feels rather like I haven’t won in 2 weeks. I practiced extra hard to stop the streak even one day earlier. I’m really glad I was able to do that.
Q: What were you thinking during your losing streak
Stats: I was envious watching the other players win. Now that I’ve won today, I’ll practice in order to build up another win streak. Thankfully the team still won when I was losing.
Q: Your record against Bogus, who you lost to last match, isn’t good
Stats: Coach keeps giving me good shots at evening the score but I can never take advantage. I feel kind of bad.
Q: Any reason Bogus is such a thorn in your side?
Stats: I guess Bogus just reads me really well. So every time the match starts I go in feeling like I’m at a disadvantage.
Q: Any regrets from your loss to Snow
Stats: It was good up to the harass attempts but afterwards I didn’t manage my money well. And during the one big fight I lost really badly, which decided the match. I had so many regrets it was hard to type gg.
Q: You got your 8th win. Any ambitions to get the most wins?
Stats: I try not to think about stuff like that. It’s important to deal with the things right before you properly. I’ll just concentrate on racking up wins in the matches to come. I am a little greedy [about getting most wins] but if I start dreaming about that I think it’ll be hard to focus on my matches.
Q: The team got 200 wins.
Stats: Since I won and my team got 200 wins, I feel like I’m twice as happy.
Q: You had some dangerous moments in today’s match, too.
Stats: After I saw the two reaver shuttle I kept thinking one mistake could seal the match. I controlled my units with all senses on high alert. It was the most nerve-wracking part of today’s match. In the counterattack after blocking Kal’s attack I lost my double reavers, too, but thankfully the match had already swung in my favor by then.
Q: Next match is against Samsung KHAN. Anyone you want to meet
Stats: I want to avoid everyone if possible. I don’t have anyone I’d like to face, and I want to avoid Stork and JangBi. It’d be good if Flash could take them out (laughs). I also want to avoid RorO. I don’t have a good record against him.
Q: A goal for the rest of the matches and round 3
Stats: I’m going to practice really hard and join Flash in being undefeated for the rest of the matches. In reality it’s probably 1% decided by my opponents, too, but if I’m really ambitious couldn’t I reduce that chance even more?
Q: Anything else you want to say
Stats: It feels good to interview for the first in a while, and win for the first time in a while. Whenever I lose my parents always call to encourage me so I’m thankful for that. I’m also thankful to our coach and coaching staff, who always believe in me and send me out.

Stats doesn't dare try to overcome God.

Isn't it funny? 5 set no ace supposed to make the deepest team win, and no WL for the same reason. Now the team who raped the WL and has a shallow line up is destroying everyone. And CJ is losing terribly.
And yes, KT are so ambitious; Stats makes one loss seem like they just lost the finals or something.

dang, really interested what Flash had to say T_T he's pwning so hard right now
|
Commentator Q: Why you so unimpressed Flash?
Flash: A: Because I'm god

thank you for the translation! :D

What in the world would you ask him now anyway? I feel like everything's been asked already. After his win, the commentators literally were struggling to find questions to ask because the rape was so complete.
Hope Stats stays strong throughout the year, and show that the Chin wasn't the only thing epic about him!!!

Bogus be your kryptonite!
thx for translation

Thanks for the interview, though it wasn't the most exciting ever. Stats is kind of contradicting himself: he doesn't want to play the ace players vs Khan, but: "I’m going to practice really hard and join Flash in being undefeated for the rest of the matches. In reality it’s probably 1% decided by my opponents, too"
I'm fine with him being confident or modest he just needs to pick a side. Anyway I'd like to see the coach interview too
|
thanks for the interview and yes please for the coach interview.
|
Coach Interview, please.
|
Flash needs to go 100% ratio and after that he can sleep calmly.
|
Thanks for the translation! What's a gander? Also Stats fighting! Let's hope he can follow in Flash's footsteps and stay undefeated for the rest of the season. Also I'd love to read the coach interview about the 200 wins.
