- You are now at the finals!
▲ It feels great to be at the Finals after a long time. The Final is important to me, but the fact that I can travel to blizzcon is such a big deal for me. I know I don't have much time until the finals, but I will make sure I can prepare some new strategies that can make me win (TN: NOOOOOOOOO FLASH JUST SK TERRAN FOR THE LOVE OF GOD)

- How did it feel like playing against 'Tushin/God of War" (Z)JulyZerg?
▲ He was very aggressive. Although I allowed myself to lose to JulyZerg, I didn't want to lose the mental game against him. Playing against him constantly reminded me of "this is what a true winner plays like." Beating a great Senior made me very happy, and someday I really hope I can surpass July and become a better player.

- Sets 2 and 3, you turned the game around.
▲ Whenever I fall into a bad position, I always find it easier to play a new strategy than originally planned at the moment. And today I think I made the right decisions. Although it was very difficult, I kept the game going as best as I could and finally got great results.

- Set 2, you were in trouble
▲ Set 2 was a huge deal for me as if I lost set 2, I really don't think I would've been able to play properly. However as the game kept going, I got my chance and won the game. But I think ever since Set 2, JulyZerg started losing his cool.

- Who do you want to see in the finals? Also you have a perfect score in GSL
▲ They are both CJ players, so I will try my hardest regardless of who it is. I heard from people I have a perfect score in GSL, but I will try my best to keep it a perfect score even in the finals.

- From what we know, KT is on a holiday. How did you prepare for this?
▲ (Z)HoeJJa Hyung and (Z)Luxury Hyung helped me prepare for this day alot. I promised them great things when I win today, and I guess I have to buy them some very expensive dinner.

- How will you spend your time until the day of the finals?
▲ I want to go on a vacation. I want to visit my parents, but I have a KT Public Event to attend to so I can't visit my parents. I really miss my parents so much, and if I get the time I really want to go back to my house and go on a long vacation with them
(TN: )

- Last words
▲ For a very long time I have not won any titles. I know my current position isn't as what it used to be, but by winning the GSL I will try my best to return to my former self.

Not only that, but we've got a lot of awesome possibilites for finals. Leta vs Jaedong, Bisu vs Jaedong, Flash vs Jaed-er, Effort! Effort's still awesome, too.

I think if Iris and Flash both BBS against Effort every single game, each game Effort will be like "no way they're going to BBS again" and eventually Effort might lose.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be surprised to see Effort roll Flash in the finals =(

lol, iris will definitely not gay his teammate out of the finals.
but, if he somehow comes back to the form he had vs savior and ggplay two years ago, it could be a whole different ball game.

All jokes aside (and yes Effort is a BEAST), it's going to be really interesting because I'm guessing Effort versus Iris is going to occur RIGHT AFTER CJ AND SAMSUNG PLAY so there's a good chance that neither player will even really prepare for this series.


Intra-team battles are always really interesting too, especially with Iris' aggressive style against Effort's beast neo-Savior style. The only matchup I would be more interested in than this would be Skyhigh versus Effort, which I think would be insane because those guys must have played each other dozens if not hundreds of times while working their way up the CJ ladder. And look - now they are the best players on one of progaming's most storied teams.

If you think bout it, Flash is kinda slumpy because he's home sick. And wouldn't it be awesome
GSL Flash vs Effort, effort tries to get revenge of the man who screwed him a tiebreaker for OSL? But in the end still losing. That is just too cool :D
