CJ 마재윤이 25일 신한은행 프로리그 08-09시즌 1라운드 4주차 경기에서 SK텔레콤 전상욱을 꺾으며 시즌 3승째를 신고했다. 마재윤은 전상욱이 들고 온 메카닉 전략에 대해 뒷길로 상대를 교란하는 작전을 펼치며 승리를 거뒀다. 마재윤은 "메카닉 전략을 많은 테란들이 쓰지 않는 것은 다 이유가 있다"며 "4강에서 김준영이 당한 것은 메카닉 전략이 오랜만이라 그런 것이고, 특별할 것은 없는 전략"이라고 말했다.
Savior of CJ won against Midas of SKT1, stacking 3 wins straight, during the 4th week of Proleague Season 08-09. Savior was able to overcome Midas' mechanic strategy by creating diversions mainly using the path from behind. After the win, Savior gave his opinion. "There is a reason why mechanic is not used by many terrans." And also said, "GGplay only lost to the mechanic strategy because it hasn't been used at all, there's nothing special about that build."
마재윤은 최근 기세가 좋다는 평가에 대해서는 크게 신경쓰지 않는다고 밝혔다. 마재윤은 "내 스스로가 느끼지 못한다면 의미가 없다"며 "고작 3승일 뿐이고, 이 정도에 만족하려고 그동안 고생하며 연습한 게 아니다"라고 말했다.
Savior, even though many think he's in a very good shape, does not mind at all. "If I don't feel it, then that's for nothing." Further more he stated, "It's mere 3 wins, and I didn't practice like hell just to be content with 3 wins."
Video Translation -How do you feel about the win? -It was a tough fight. However, because this allows us to be one of the top ranked teams in a proleague, I am satisfied.
-Did you prepare for the Mechanic Strategy? -It's either bio or mechanic. The map favors the zerg, so I even prepared not only against mechanic but against diverse All-In strategies as well.
-Your thoughts regarding the new Mechanic strategy? -Well... I don't really believe it's anything new or special... That build has been used before... and... tens and hundreds of Terran progamers knew about it... if that build was so powerful, why didn't anyone use it before? The build is not good and that's why they didn't use it. As you can see today, two of our zergs won against two of SKT1 terrans, who are known to have the best Mechanic Terrans, by beating that very mechanic strategy. So I'm not really concerned at all.
-What is your answer to new mechanic strategy? -Like I said before, the build existed long before and GGplay only lost because it's been so long ago and forgot the right counters. So really... it's an easy build and an easy build to counter. Terrans from our team have better mechanic concept than the ones from SKT1. I think this is the reason why I had easier time against Midas today.
-When did you feel the game was yours? -When I killed 2 valkyries, I knew the victory was slowly leaning toward myside. But I was confident from the start to finish to be honest.
-Some fans were secretly hoping for Savior vs Bisu, your thoughts? -I didn't think about that possibility before... But I would've been confident regardless who came out, even against Bisu. I don't believe that even Bisu would have the confident to beat me in Raid Assault(Zerg map), so....
-Is this the return of Ma BonJa? -I didn't think of it even once. If I don't feel it, then it's irrelevant. Ma Bonja... such powerful term... But I didn't practice like hell just for three wins. Three wins are mere three wins.
Nono what I mean is.. Savior sounds a little bit disrespectful? Does he sound that way in korean too or is it just because it sounds different when you say it in english?
I tried to do a direct translation without altering any "feelings". But it might've came out little bit more aggressive than it is. However, he definitely does sound, what's the right word... "Over Confident" in some parts.

Sorry, that part was not directed toward Midas but the mech build in general.
I always knew savior was arrogant in interviews, but I always thought it was a realistic kind of arrogance "yeah, im better, so the osl is mine" sort of thing. This can be considered bm/trash talk. Which I like!

That's like "a mere drop in the oceon" when Savior gets his gear rolling .
I don't know what you find arrogant or BM in the interview . He just said that mech builds vs Zergs sucked and i agree and he also said that his teammates play mech build better then the SKT terrans which i also agree . Berserker >Fantasy , Canata and Midas all together . I would like to see Iris version of the mech build vs zerg . Him with some berserker vultures cruising through swarms lurkers and sunks just like he does with marines would be epic He said he would beat Bisu on Raid assault which i also agree knowing how he handled JangBI in Blizzcon .It's about time Savior manhandled Bisu and FBH if they step on his territory ( Raid assault 2 )
Just saying how this mech build isnt all-that, which i disagree, since fantasy lost that mech game. He could've defended that all-ling better, its like saying how an all-in hydra vs. FE toss is the perfect counter etc. etc.
I love sAviOr showing some love for his team.. shit all over SKT1 and even said that even Bisu wouldn't have been confident to beat him in RaiD Assault ^_^ lol

He's done it before, to ggplay of all people. That's why I said GGPlay has mech killing knowhows and can't believe he lose...
Here's the game, iris went goliath/valk, ggplay counters with mass muta scourge, no vods though.
I didn't find it dissing or anything. Maybe a little bit overconfident and probably that slight touch of arrogant attitude a bonjwa ought to have. What he was trying to state was that he doesn't give a crap about his past slump and what people think about it or those players who sunk him into the slump.
Basically he is saying: "I will destroy everyone to proof something to myself, not to the crowd, Bisu, FBH or anyone else. And I'm sending some love to my teammates because they are helping me prepare for the 2009 destruction. Now GTFO".

Get stuffed lol!! That's right, ain't no one got shit on my homies Iris and DE!
Do you know who Savior reminds the most? Sylar from Heroes. And do you remember (for those who watched ofc) the last scene from the second season, where the Sylar finally got his power back? Maybe the Blizzcon was Savior's analoug of that?

i rly think savior didnt even think he was in a slump. he was prolly just having some time off and trying to enjoy his money. when he got demoted to team B, his salary dropped so he stepped up his game. then his gf dumps him so now hes out to destroy all the progamers his gf liked cuz before she would be like "no dont beat fbh or bisu or you wont get any tonight."
As bad as he's trashing SKT1 mech, it kinda by association trashes GGPlay for losing to it. Yeah he qualified it by saying the build is so old GGPlay forgot about yadda yadda yadda, but still it's gotta make GGPlay do a little facepalm.
edit: I also love the shrug ceremony. Savior FIGHTING!

Thanks for translating btw.
it is translations there CANNOT be 100% proper in meaning b/c our laguage is too different, just like in school when i had to learn french, some things come out wrong b/c or translations
who the hell came up with the name "terran revolutionist"? rofl..revolution my ass i knew that mech build wayyyy before too, seen it played before somewhere in proleague. I hope Fantasy gets stumped in this Final by Stork...
If Stork loses...well...i will rip his dick off...
But now this is real confidence.Be careful, Savior is going to destroy everybody in 2009,but he begin this in the end of 2008.I cant imagine what will happen in 2009.It will be eliminination of human race
Holy shit I loved reading this interview. That's the fucking Savior who used to be auto-win auto-vote on everything. He really did a 180 on his mentality I think.

he wasnt really being bm. its just his style lol. the style of the last bonjwa. its pretty funny actually he's not really dissing skt he's just like matter-of-fact about it and he says it like he just stating facts lol. makes it all the better. and i like the part where he's like if bisu would say that he's confident about facing me even on raid assault lol. yeah ra2 is his fucking map and the bonjwa is reclaiming his throne real soon =)
That game is a pretty bad example because its such a terrible map in general for zvt.
Thanks for pointing that out; builds and MUs will suck on specific maps - Midas should've known better then to mech on such a confining map against Savior.

Everyone jumps on the mech bandwagon. Personally, I trust Savior's strategical insight more than Day's. It's all hype imo.
In my opintino its about as arrogant as idra saying he is the favorite to win wcg usa.
But it does seem like an attack on skt1, and more aggressive than the normal interview. I think it makes thing more interesting when people are honest like this.
<3 Savior personally i dont really see any bm there, just the old confidence as it should be.
Whats wrong with supporting ur own teammates and calling a build weak u dont think is anything special?
Can't believe some people are actually complaining about this interview. I mean this is actually what we want to see more coming out of progamers no? Personality.

No one jumped on it to be the end all be all build. We enjoyed the build that gave us the ability to be able to go into the mech build more safely and efficently. Mech builds are not new, any terran knows that, but Fantasy proved the effectiveness of vultures and valkyries before just going straight tank/gol. Up till that point it was a standard MnM -> into mech build, wasting resources on the academy.

Yeah savior always had a lot of confidence probably why he dominated for so long in his prime and probably why he fell so hard too. I remember when he actually put all sparky members in his group for msl that was art.
SK Mechanic, uhh, it doesn't sound right. SK means SKT1 right? Cuz if it were Soul Key then it'd be ironic since Soul Key Terran is pure Marine and Medic.

We have to stop all this FBH vs Savior stuff they both rock!
Id rather have something like CJ buys Firebathero, proleague brings back 2v2 and Savior/)FBH 2v2 destroys the world together in 2009, With Savior and FBH playing each other in OSL and MSL finals, oh yeah and then every single FBH and Savior fanboy could live so happy together.
