+ Show Spoiler [Interview with Winner] +

BackHo: "I will prove that I have recovered through my gameplay."
"I feel sorry for GoRush hyung."


[image loading]


(P)BackHo defeated (Z)GoRush and (P)Tester to qualify for Round of 16 of the 2009 Bacchus OSL in his Group C Round of 32 stage.

The following is the interview with BackHo.

- Your thoughts on your advancement?
▲ I am happy that I advanced into the Round of 16. I gave up my spot in the previous season so I was very disappointed, so I am glad that I have advanced once again. Many people were worried for me as to whether I could advance or not, and now that I have advanced, I will show that I have recovered through my games.

- GoRush suffered a forfeit loss.
▲ I feel so weird. The rule was implemented because of me, so I somehow also felt that GoRush hyung suffered the forfeit losses because of me, and I feel really sorry for him. That was why it was still on my mind as I was playing against Tester.

- On Holy World, GoRush attempted to do a sunken colony contain.
▲ I was worried about Infested Terrans being used so after I destroyed the neutral command center, I thought the game will be played out standard, but GoRush hyung went for a proxy hatchery. That is why I thought that I should quickly break through the contain, and it turned out well.

- Your thoughts on Holy World?
▲ It is a hard map indeed. On Holy World, even if there wasn't a neutral command center, it is a tough map for Protoss. However, the very existence of the neutral command center makes it harder for Protoss to defeat a Zerg.
Even if the Zerg does not intend to use the command center, the Protoss player will no doubt be concerned by it. That itself causes the map to be disadvantageous for the Protoss. (Z)ZerO used it once, so I was even more concerned by it.

- Your recent skills have gotten much better.
▲ I can feel that my skills have improved. In the previous OSL's semifinals, I knew that my skills were lacking. I think I was just lucky. After I recovered from my injury, I too realised (that I was lacking in skills), and my teammates told me to work on it.

- What is the reason for your recent improvement?
▲ My mindset has changed. Before this incident, I just played the game anyhow, but after spending 2 months at the hospital, I became more determined. My parents and grandmother told me to quit being a progamer, but after much thinking, I realised that I had nothing else other than (being a progamer). I knew that I had no choice but to succeed as a progamer, and because of that, my practices became more fun and I was able to work much harder.

- Your target for this season?
▲ I want to win an individual league one day. I want to play good games, regardless of win or lose. My play has gotten better since when I last entered the semifinals, so I will work hard to produce an even better result this season.

- Any final words?
▲ Despite being a break period, my teammates and other teams' players helped me with practice, so I am grateful for that. I am also grateful for my coach who showed a lot of concern for me. I will work hard to climb even higher, so I hope everyone will look forward to me.

Semi-surprised that he didn't mention his foreign fans for his card

Backho isn't playing dumb like he used to, which is good to see! He'll probably do well this season.

He should have said something like "KeSPA shouldn't have done that blah blah" when asked about GoRush. KeSPA can't do anything if BackHo say that in an interview.

<3 BackHo. Although I was cheering for him, I still feel sorry for GoRush. I wanted BackHo to win, but not this way...

Nice translation! Backho used to be the lackluster element of an OSL, but after watching Tester's performance, I have decided to cheer for him

kespa's chatting rules are obviously stupid but I find it amusing how they ended up benefiting the player that they were made to punish.
No I'm never serious.
