(P)GosI[Flying]: "I did not even dream of performing an all-kill."
"I still have a long way to go, so I'm not sure if it's okay to already start tasting the sweetness of victory."


[image loading]


A new player has now transformed eSTRO's 'Shin Trio' into the 'Shin Quatre', performing a surprising all-kill against 08-09 season's 9th ranked MBC Game Heroes.

- Your thoughts on performing an all-kill?
▲ First of all, I feel very happy. I think I was just lucky. But I still have a long way to go, so I'm not sure if it's okay to already start tasting the sweetness of victory.

- This is the first ever all-kill performed in the STX cup.
▲ It is an honor. I did not even dream of performing an all-kill. I told myself to just win 1 game.

- Among all the games, which game was the hardest?
▲ It was the first game. I still was not warmed up and was feeling very nervous. It also turned out to be a macro game, and I was playing against Sea, who is a very strong player, so I was slightly intimidated. I was at an advantage but yet, because of all those factors, it wasn't easy.

- You did not seem to be nervous at all.
▲ I was greatly nervous in my first game. After defeating Sea, I got less nervous and gained confidence.

- How are you performing in your intra-team ranking competition?
▲ I'm still in the B-team but I'm currently going through the rankings with the A-team members. In the B-team rankings, I'd be in the top half but when competing with the A-team players, I'm stuck at the bottom half.

- How does it feel to play with A-team members?
▲ Compared to B-team members, they play much better and their micro is excellent, so it is not easy.

- You did well in your B-team rankings and you even mentioned in your interview after your first debut win that you wanted to be a player good enough to be considered being one of the 'six dragons'.
▲ Since I performed an all-kill today, I think I am 30% towards my goal.

- Expectations must be high for the next season. Are you confident to fight to be one of the main players?
▲ I want to defeat SangHo hyung and be one of the main players.

- With this all-kill, the 'Shin Trio' has evolved into 'Shin Quatre'.
▲ I think I am still lacking. Other senior players in my team have more experience and compared to them, I still have a long way to go. But if I prepare one step at a time, I think I will be able to catch up to them.

- You will be facing Woongjin next. Do you have intention of wanting to be the first player to be sent out?
▲ If my coaches allow me to be sent out, I want to try. If I do get sent out, I want to play against Free. It is because he is one of the six dragons. If I get sent out as the first player and win a game, I believe I will be able to perform 2 kills.

- Any final words?
▲ I want to tell all B-team members that if you work hard, there will always be an opportunity so never give up and do your best.

I feel is really motivated and he will success forsure.

Korean mind is totally imba and honnest.

The interview is awesome. A great guy.

Good luck to eSTRO!

hot damn, no name with an all-kill. unfortunately, beating Free is meaningless, he's gonna have to defeat PerfectMan in order to prove his worthiness of being a protoss dragon.

I only got to see a couple of his games. But the kid definitely has potential.

So if he wants to be one of the 6 dragons, I wonder who is he kicking out? Right now Free looks to be a prime candidate. Perhaps that's why he wants to play Free?

Lol, 6 dragon. Beating free should be one of the easiest out of the 6 dragons because of his unstable pvp.

Its so hard for protoss to perform an all - kill as in winners league so few did . Props to him for steping up his game when he had the chance to get recognized . Teams should try their B - team lineups in PL more often .

Well taking into account Free's PvP it won't be too tough for this flying guy to take him down =p

His first game was definitely the most impressive. He edged out sea in a long, long drawn out game. Plus his manly "fuck zealots I have templars" strategy versus a tank-heavy army was the first I've ever seen (that worked).

This kid blew my mind. There's definately solid potential here but it's far, far too early to make assumptions towards his future greatness. Not only did he get the all kill but he basically controlled every game and dummied MBC. Considering the lack of Protoss play lately this was rather exciting.

I'd like to see eSTRO get through the teams on the bottom half at least. Couldn't see them getting beyond Hite though.

He just made the mistake of using Sea as his comparison. You just can't talk crap about Sea[Shield] and get away with it. You can get away with comparing Bisu or Flash or even Boxer or Savior. But Sea[Shield] is the greatest SC player that every lived. And we can only look up in awe of his greatness.
