They asked him how well does his team do on Sc2 and he replied that they are probably in the average. Then they asked him his opinion on his Sc2 game he lost the day before, he replied that he still need practice and that he doesnt really care about that lost because it doesnt mean much.
So much for the idea that the terrible PL teams from last season would be more ready for SC2. It doesn't look like they got more SC2 practice than last season's playoff teams.

Ah, will the winners interview be translated by anyone?

doesnt the GSL lady just do interviews?
I think you are thinking of GSL translator lady. She's cute, but the GSL commentator lady is a total stunner. She was a former female progamer if I recall. Such a shame she left on maternity. I miss the random camera shots of her
You're talking about Lee Hun Joo, who has got her own fanclub here on TL. She last appeared at the GSL finals at Blizzcon 2011 in Anaheim CA and currently is on a pregnancy/baby break.
The other female person you're thinking of is in charge of post-/mid-game interviews at GSL/GSTL and I heard she's the significant other of GSL Code S caster Colossus.
Im really surprised and impressed with the SC2 guys in these recent threads who are open to trying to understand BW and even open minded enough to see where BW does a few things "better" than SC2 does currently. It gives me a whole new respect for these new fans and really its nice to see people being mature and thoughtful.
For any of you new to BW, i highly suggest checking out Best vs Skyhigh game 3 on Destination from Gomtv's Averatec-Intel Classic 2008 Season2. Its cast by Tasteless in english etc etc. This is a lesser talked about gem of a game in my opinion and if you like brutal TvPs with nonstop destruction and nonstop reinforcing you might dig this game.

Ah thanks I really want to see the interviews but nobody is posting them sadly .

If you mean JD's interview after he won then I already posted it in thread.

Actual team winner's interviews from DES haven't been translated yet though.
Somewhat new to pl here (i watched 3 seasons very casually prior to the hybrid season as I only played bw for a year, mostly sc2 player). Never rooted for a team in those seasons but I've decided to become a cj fan! Question for longtime cj fans: who is cj's ace/best player and who are the players that come after him? aka rank cj's players from top to bottom.

Effort(all around) - main ace, retired after winning OSL beating flash from a 0-2 deficit, recently came back Hydra(all around) - ace when effort retired, pretty pretty solid game Leta(TvT/TvZ) - known for micro intensive strategies, used to play with 2port wraith in tvz, has a hard time beating jaedong, team capt, cross dresser, miracle boy(for impossible comebacks), one of the best TvTers, brought ^_^ to cj's -_- (cj is known to have poker faces until the merge of OGN/hite Sparkyz to CJ entus) Horang(PvP) - tigertoss, insane macro monster, very very good PvP and known for his impeccable building placements ^ main players in order of skill (my own opinion)
Snow(PvT)/SkyHigh(TvT)/BByong - role players, snow is a PvT sniper but horrendous PvZ (not sure), SkyHigh is known for his TvT, he defeated Jaedong-led Hwaseung Oz during a winner's league final from 0-3 and brought the team back single handedly to win 4-3, BByong up and coming terran
other players are idk, practice partners/rookies/vets
there was also another main Protoss player but Movie moved to T8

To add a little to this:
Hydra isn't in good form right now, currently he's looking like at best CJ's 4th player (behind horangi/effort/leta)
CJ has a large stable of B-teamers that are competent and capable of bringing upsets (see: Rush in this current OSL) They won't see much playtime though since CJ is a very very deep team.
Also Snow's PvZ is NOT horrendous--he played a famous Bo5 in the MSL vs Jaedong where he pushed the dong to his limits--all epic games, I highly recommend them. Snow is a very mercurial player, some games he'll absolutely smash, others he looks pretty mediocre. Has (possibly) the best reaver control in the business, in all 3 matchups.

i honestly have no idea about snow aside from his PvT
I feel if we went back in time a year or so, those would be pretty accurate, but Snow has come a long way from a pvt sniper, and horang from a cheesy pvp sniper, he was really strong all round last season
