I get the feeling that a number of people think Hydra is Effort 2.0. Personally, I've always found Effort to be super cheesy, heavily ling reliant, and a lucky Starleague winner. Hydra plays much better imo, and I suspect he'll be a force to reckon with.


I really agree. Effort had a time period where he was unbelievable at SC but then he slumped without winning anything. In his run where he got an OSL win and put up good results in PL, he wasn't as impressive to me as Hydra is now, relying on Zergling gimmicks and showing very inconsistent results. Hopefully with this MSL win, Hydra will continue to show S-class ability and leave Effort's legacy in the dust.

Hydra seems set to be an up and coming S-class player if things keep up. Good for him, he seems like a great guy.

Thanks for translating!

Hydra is very likable, he gives good interviews. Normally I think CJ is made out of pure evil, with the exception of Much, but Hydra is fucking cool.

Effort beat Flash four times in a row. You don't really get to call someone inconsistent after that. As usual the OSL champion didn't win every game he played after the finals which naturally led to a lot of complaining on the forum. Then he retired.
High five :---)

if only Savior hadn't fallen to the dark side, CJ's Zerg line could be right up there with SKT1's Terran line in greatness. Congrats to Hydra on his first starleague win

CJ...I can feel the power rising once again...their proud lineage of the power of ONE shall never cease. There shall always rise a dark lord of zerg from this bloodline, and he shall be alone, and uncontested. To be a CJ zerg, to be THE CJ zerg, is to be alone, alone in your power, and to share it with no one.

Savior: Our fallen ancestor, the Great Old One whose legacy left a scorched and barren trail of tears and destruction.

Effort: The Dark Prince, the great successor who's tenacity and cunning wiles mixed and intertwined with a feral ruthlessness to produce he who maintained the empire during it's darkest hours.

Hydra: The New Lord. He who will rise and reestablish the true order of things. The rule of the High Kings of Starcraft, and the strict hierarchy they protect will be torn into a shambles, and in the ensuing chaos, it is the scorned, the enemy long forgotten to the world who will rise again and claim his rightful place. Ascendancy is near, and with this first battle, the war has begun...


The TaekbangLeesang may rule this land, they may keep the order and guard it well, but the darkness cannot be beaten back forever, and it will come again, rushing over the lands in a black tidal wave of vengeance.

CJ FIGHTING! HYDRA FIGHTING! THE BLOODLINE FIGHTING!

They're not really giving their money to their parents. Well they are but it's not like the parents are going to spend it on a fancy car or anything. It's more like their parents are also their financial managers so they'll take care of the money and invest it or whatever.

First of all, let me get my Hydra bias out before again I make my comment: YEEEEEEEEEAAAHHHHH HYDRAAA THAT'S MY BOOOYYYYYYYY I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT, MAN. :')

Thank you very much for the translation. I kept on believing that Hydra would take this MSL, and it makes me so happy to see that he has fully lived up to my expectations. Reading his post-final interview solidifies my image of him that he is a modest and humble guy, and that we'll see even greater feats from him in the future. I look forward to seeing more from you, Hydra.

Winning the MSL has made Hydra successfully earn a place in my signature! Only the most worthy progamers have a place in it, and yes, I am so proud to share the same birthday with Hydra. September 4th-ians FTW~ 8DDD
