It's been long time since I visited here.
I'm a big July fan and I'm happy to hear SKT1 took July 
I worked hard to remind my English^^;;;
(I haven't been used English for a long time...)
Enjoy

‘Tushin'(God of War) July, who goes to SKT1 for sure, sounds relieved. He's been in trouble for fortnight because of failure of salary negotiation, but finally he is chosen. I had a phone interview with July, who escaped from the danger of a retirement and found a new home to soar
- It is confirmed that you go to SKT1, how do you feel now?
▶ I feel easy. I was anxious for two weeks. I'm thankful to SKT1 for a hard decision for me. I'll practice more and more, and win for the team.
- What is your role in SK Telecom?
▶ I was a kind of a senior in MBCgame Hero. I'm now moved from a senior to a middle, so I'll play as a bridge between juniors and seniors. Coach Ju Hoon also want me to be the link of the team.
- You had been with aficionado until 2005, and combined again.
▶ I can understand what he thinks only if I look into his eyes. He discovered me, and helped to win the Starleague. He loves the hard training, and so do I. I'd like to strive hard again in SKT1
- How did you feel when you left MBC game
▶ It was not easy to leave the team, which I'd been for five years. They raised me since I was a newbie, and we've grown together, but I was upset because I felt I didn't deserved right. Those feeling bursted out on negotiating, we separated at last. Now I cooled down, but I was upset at that time. Even I transferred, I think we are still friendly. They were good people. I feel sorry to players in MBCgame. We promised to play together for a long time when MBC game was established, I didn't keep the promise.
- It is expected a lot of synergy between you and Gorush.
▶ Though we play same race, Zerg, His style is very different from me. I'll learn from him, and teach my style to him. I believe it brings fun plays if my aggressiveness and his management combine.
- Many fans were worried since you'd been on waivers, and cheered for you on the MSL match. Say a word for the fans.
▶ Even I leave MBCgame and go to SKT1, there's no difference, I am I. I really wanted to play on leagues since waivers, I transferred SKT1 as they took me. Please don't think SKT takes all good players and think I was saved by them. I'll show better games in SKT1, root for me.

only in SKT T1, could an oldschool player like July be considered a "middle" and not a senior veteran =P

skt1 sounds better mebbe.

because i never fucking knew it was SKTT1
w00t now i can be elitist and correct people
no seriously i don't think i've ever heard that here before O_O
has it always been like that???? i don't even ever remember seeing that on TV (they often have english characters and not korean and i always remember it being SKT1) or maybe it was because i just assumed it said SKT1 and didn't look closely enough o_O
*runs to check old VODs*
also i thought the player IDs were always like...

not SKTelecomT1_BOXER

Sounds like the Boxer-Oov tradeoff, and we know how well that worked out for both players. We might be seeing some really sick Zerg coming from SKT T1 soon.

yeah now we just need them to FUSE IDs!!

Long time no see Manatea, thanks for the interview translation.
I hope July rumble stomps the competition. Anytime he is playing, I will always cheer for him.

Oov + July UNSTOPPABLE 2v2 TEAM!!

July annoys both opponent to death while oov takes the map. awesome
|
Now if Midas get's his act back together I don't see anyone beating sktt1 in PL O_O
|
I wasn't being elitist (do we have those yet for progaming nerds? I think it's about time, myself) I just didn't know if there was some reference I was missing, or if it was so commonly misspelled that it became the de facto spelling (like pwn instead of own)
Edit: Well, I know that's not actually a "spelling", but ... whatever. It doesn't matter.
|
Awesome job Manatea! One part of the interview I don't quite understand:
Please don't think SKT takes all good players and think I was saved by them. I'll show better games in SKT1, root for me.
I think July is trying to say that fans shouldn't criticize SK Telecom for what they perceive as an attempt to gain an overly dominant monopoly of good players, and should instead thank the company for "saving" July's livelihood. But I'm not sure, so yeah.
As for the abbreviation thing, I tend to randomly switch between "SKT" and "T1". At first I too thought that the screennames went "SKTelecom1_iloveoov" instead of the actual "SKTelecomT1_iloveoov" (god that's a long name huh? it's like 20 characters o_o)

Actually, I kind of like SKTelecomT1_oov ... looks very ominous.

I'm 50/50 with kingdom. Sometimes he looks unstoppable, devil mode kicks in and not even the best micro/macro can save you from the onslaught. Other times, well, he gets raped bad because he plays incredibly stupid or ironically into a defensive pussy. (Ex: running over mines with zealots, getting them all killed, then proceeding to send mass goons over a shitload of tanks.yeahhhhh.) The only way I see him winning games is by playing a purely aggressive micro oriented game from start, then outmassing his opponent with macro heavy plays into mid game. Kingdom can only survive late games in PvP. I think he loses focus then, and thats his main weakness.
But yeah, July may reach top form now. Could be real interesting with iloveoov and him now in the same MSL together. Rivals on the same team!

Dude I just realized Carlo will have an orgasm over new SKTT1 lineup.
iloveoov... first place... at WCG 2006... Heart of South korea...
julyzerg second place... at Monzi WCG... Legend.. of South Korea...
Midas... third place.. WCG 2006.. Passion of Korean progamers.. they are really gm..
SKT T1.. pride of south Korea... they are founded by SlayerS_'BoxeR'... who is the Emperor of Starcraft... and winner of WCG... two times...

Damn, Bisu's pvz is in danger .

I wonder how much july get paid in T1
|
Whee my two fav zergs besides savior in one team. Skt just needs a toss besides kingdom and rainbow unless kingdom gets out of his slump and shows everyone his stuff. And rainbow is too unpredictable and too inconsistent.
|
SKT1's a beast team lol, not even funny anymore for the other teams :D!
BTW : July'll get back at his best shape, that's for sure.

New interviews has come.
busy to translate... I will tell briefly some important things.
1. His salary is 60 million won, which is lower than MBCgame suggested.
What I think is...
probably SKT1 already finished salary negotitaion, it is hard to pull out more money in limited budget.
But I'm sure July will get much more next year as long as he works hard. especially if SKT1 win proleague.
2.
Sea told July "Hyung, Please come back."
Sea was not a good shape recent proleague.
It seems loss of July affected Sea a lot
3. SKT1 was not interested in July,
but aficionado really works hard to bring July to SKT1
5. proteams set special rules to save July only one time.
They admit waiver and FA rules have problem to protect players and they are going to edit them
SKT1 and CJ wanted July, but CJ conceded.
6. He can play proleague after June 16th
7. He was surprised that SKT1's entry competition is really hard.
|
SKTelecomT1_July
O god.. that looks so stupid.. but it look ssooooooooooo good.
And if Kingdom wasn't SKT1 captain, he'd be raping, but you know how it is with every captain position except maybe Boxer and Nada -_-;; Is Nada even Pantech capt?
|
United States20661 Posts
Wait, didn't MBC suggest 60 also? and he wanted 80?
Not sure.
Sea seems sad D: damn MBCGame is shooting themselves in the foot. Loss of one of their two oldest members is bound to affect their young players.
Aficionado is cool ^^;
CJ? July/sAviOr combo? :O
June 16... so it'll be a bit less than a month.
What did he expect? It's the second richest team by total salary, I think. I'd imagine entry competition is difficult.
edit: Silver is still Pantech captain AFAIK, not NaDa.
|
I'm glad to see that he's found a home, and T1 is probably the best place for him since beijang, who was his coach at POS when he won the two OSLs is there too.
I'm a new T1 fan now, since July has been my favorite player for a while now.
|
Also also, I think HOT is the official captain of Air Force ACE. It's weird; only a very few teams actually have their overall best/most popular player as captain. Maybe they know what will happen to those players if they are given that position =o
|
Germany / USA16648 Posts
Captain goes by seniority, it's an asian thing
|
3. SKT1 was not interested in July
If it's like this MBC should get July back, Sea won't be beastly without him apparently
|
I didn't like skt1 before this, but I guess I have to give them a second chance.

When they announced it at that meeting-thing (I don't know what it's called, it's where all the e-Sports teams/people go to that fancy dining hall and give speeches and stuff), it was called The One
I really doubt they changed it since then. It's not like it REALLY means anything anyway 
|
lol funny thing is july just beat oov...i wonder what will happen between them XD
|
thanks manatea! wow, the drama.
that's really gonna bolster T1's lineup, now they have multiple strong zerg options. they still need more strong protoss though (sorry kingdom/rainbow fans). i love that new proleague rule of not putting the same race on maps consecutively!

what are you talking about? that rule doesn't exist, look at the results and standings thread, there are plenty of examples that would go against such a rule.
it did exist in the past, however, but that was lang ago
|
What a great pickup. this is going to do so much for both SKT1 and July.
July practicing more often with Iloveoov, not to mention the other badass Terrans like Midas and Canata? Yeah he's going to be unstoppable perfecting his aggressive strategies against those monsters, and those Terrans will be even better than they are now at TvZ.
July's also #2 on my list (after savior) at ZvP. Every Protoss on that team will surely get much needed improvement at that matchup.
SKT1 had alright Zergs, but they're one-dimensional, SKT1 needed this badly.
