[Spoilers] WeMade FOX vs ACE Winners' Interviews

Air Force ACE's GoRush defeated Pure in their match against WeMade FOX held on the 6th of May 2009 at the Yongsan e-Sports Indoor Stadium, and succeeded in continuing his own winning streak, as well as contributing to his team's win today, which ended with his team going on a winning streak.

The following is the interview with GoRush.

- You and your team are on a two-game winning streak.
▲ I am very happy. I am happy that I am on a two game winning streak, as well as our team being on a two-match winning streak. Including our previous game, I was the first player to win for each match, so I am even more happy.

- How was your match today?
▲ I researched a lot on Pure. And Pure played as how I expected him to play, and because I prepared a build that works strong against Pure's playing style, I was confident in winning. I kept thinking from the moment the game started that this game was mine to take. On Medusa and Neo Medusa, there is a limit to what the Protoss can do. I think that Zergs have learnt to adapt to Protoss' playing style on this map completely as they kept on playing on the same map for a long time.

- Your higher-ranked officers praised you a lot.
▲ I don't think the team's morale got better just because I joined the team. ACE was originally a team with players with great skills, but after I joined, I produced results, which was why the higher-ranked officers worked even harder to produce such good results.

- Is there any secret to how you adapted so fast into the team and produced such good results within a short period of time?
▲ I think it's very complicated. It was my sheer will, as well as my desire to win every single match I get to play in ACE because of not being able to play often while being in SKT1. Also, I was the captain when I was in SKT1, so I got too high and mighty, but after being enrolled into the army, my status in the society became nothing. I can't say everything, but I learned a lot while undergoing training at the academy. I now think that nothing is impossible, and that anything is possible as long as I try.

- Any final words?
▲ The build I used today was originally invented by Sergeant OversKy. It is a great, complete build so I am glad that he passed on the strategy to me. Also, I would like to thank Seniors DaezanG and Anytime, as well as this person called 'Seok Tae Soo' who helped me with practice late into the night.

Air Force ACE's Mantoss defeated Otter Terran in their match against WeMade FOX held on the 6th of May 2009 at the Yongsan e-Sports Indoor Stadium.

The following is the interview with The Mantoss.

- You finally defeated Nada in an official match after facing each other for the first time in 3 years and 6 months.
▲ Whenever I played against Nada, I always felt that I was the one being pushed around. That was how many times I lost so disappointingly or lost in mindgames, so I tried to take the advantage right from the start and I'm glad that the results turned out to be good. Also, we finally faced each other after a long time, and I'm glad that I shortened our head-to-head score difference. Because whenever the former '4 Great Kings' face each other, there is a lot of excitement from the fans, and that makes playing so much more fun.

- How was your match today?
▲ Even up til yesterday, I did not completely decide on which build to use. Nada's freestyle play is very strong so I hesitated a lot, and eventually I chose on playing with the concept of 'standard play'. I did not anticipate Nada to siege up at the center of the map and expand there, but I knew that I can not allow him to take that expo and continuously attacked him. I slowly accumulated points from the center engagements, and slowly I knew that I had won.

- A few words regarding your team's winning streak.
▲ Since my admittance into ACE, it is the first time the team has gone on a winning streak. Our team's morale has gone up high ever since Private GoRush joined our team. I think our team's morale has never been so high before, and I feel really glad. We can definitely feel the effects of the synergies (between all the players). Although we cannot guarantee that we can continue our winning streak, our team will not as easy-to-win as it used to be.

- After your 100 wins, your score was 'reset' and today's your 'first' win.
▲ I try to smile often nowadays. I want to smile not only because I feel good, but also because I want to be optimistic. Despite how small such details may be, I believe they reflect my gameplay. I am working hard so that even if I do lose a match, I will make sure it does affect my next game. If I keep this up, I can slowly accumulate another 100 wins.

- A word to other 'old' progamer as an 'old' progamer.
▲ The ones who were called 'The 4 Great Kings' - Private YellOw, Nada and Boxer hyung have all been showing good progress recently, and I believe that if I work hard as well, the days when we reigned supreme will come once again.

- Any final words?
▲ I think that my fans like me even more because I am consistently winning and smiling more. I will continue to produce great games and will continue to smile and laugh. Also, Private ClouD and kkong from MBCGame helped with practice for today's match, and I would like to thank them.

Air Force ACE's Casy defeated RorO in their match against WeMade FOX held on the 6th of May 2009 at the Yongsan e-Sports Indoor Stadium.

The following is the interview with Casy.

- You showed great micro and won the game.
▲ I am happy that I won but I don't think I micro-ed well.

- Your thoughts on your game today.
▲ Actually I prepared a 1 rax cc build. But the winning rate wasn't good, so I changed my build at the last moment. I really wanted to win, so I wanted to do an all-in rush regardless of how I do it. But my opponent canceled his hatchery at the expansion so in the end it became a standard game. I had experience playing off one-base against FireFist, so I fought hard.

- Your Marine & Medic micro was outstanding.
▲ Usually the games I play end up being macro games so it becomes difficult for me to micro, but playing off one-base helped me to focus better on micro. However, my desired micro still isn't showing on live matches.

- What was your reason for wanting to win so badly?
▲ There were many reasons. If course it was so that our team will win, and also I once lost to RorO after I made a huge mistake and he made a comeback. That is why, just this once, I didn't want to lose. I wanted to make up for that day's loss with today's win.

- What is the reason for your team's recent high morale?
▲ It goes without saying that with the arrival of Private GoRush and Private XellOs, our team's morale changed for the better. Our team's morale was very low as we kept on losing, but when the new recruits joined us, due to many reasons, our morale totally changed.

- Is it because your lives became more comfortable after the new recruits joined?
▲ I don't know about our team's record, but I think that is one of the main reasons. When new recruits join us it's really fun. Private GoRush is very adaptive, so even while living in the army, he lives his life to the fullest that I can say it's almost perfect.

- Any final words?
▲ I want to thank Samsung Khan's Rarity and SKT1's Thezerg who helped me with practice late into the night yesterday. I will work hard to produce exciting games in the OSL that will definitely not disappoint my fans.
