GSL May Code S Championship

GSL Finals Pre-match Interview
From PlayXP
[image loading]

Both Inca and Nestea had smiles on their face but sparks were flying.

On May 12th, at the Gretech headquarters, the LG Cinema 3D GSL May Media Day was held.
And there, oGs’s Inca and their coach (TheWind) and IM’s Nestea and their coach had a war of words before the impending match.

Both players and coaches put forth their thoughts about the match and balance, and were grilled by the media. Both Nestea and Inca tried to get on each other’s nerves through their words and at times caused the place to explode with a sea of laughter.

LG Cinema 3D GSL May Code S Finals will be held on May 14th 3PM at Daegu EXCO.

Below is the media day interview summary


(**Translator Note, Most of this is smacktalk so please don't debate too much about balance)

- Your thoughts on the finals?
(Nestea) – This has been a while since my last one, so I am really happy. My final game in the semifinals was really hard, but I am glad I was able to make a comeback and win. I am happy that I am in my second finals as a zerg player, and overall, it’s just all good.
(Inca) – I am a bit disappointed that it has taken me so long to get here. I have only lost once on my way into the finals and I think the finals will go about the same. (*He predicts that he will lose only once in the finals) I am a bit disappointed in myself for letting that happen.
(oGsCoach) – I don’t have any special thoughts. I am just glad that (Inca) he was able to advance this far, and I am focused on helping him prepare for his victory. Since 4:0 is a bit lopsided, I predict that it will be 4:1. Nestea and I are actually the same age, so I am pretty friendly with him. I also play the same race as him. But it is about time he experiences the things he has been complaining (qqing) about for a while.
(IMCoach) – I am really happy. Of course, more so than anything else, the semifinals 5th game was an unspeakable win by Nestea, so I am more overjoyed than usual. I know that coaches have to always be supportive of their players, but during that game, I thought it was over. In my opinion, the harder road you have getting to the finals, the better that player’s results will be at the end. Mvp and Nestea have been previous champions, and for them to continue winning is obvious. The score isn’t important. But we will make sure to provide an excellent match.

- Nestea, you will be the first zerg in 2 finals.
(Nestea) – I am a bit worried. I am not sure if Inca can matchup to my level of play… I think he may be an opponent too easy for the finals. I guess I can just think my finals already happened against sC.

- Inca, this will be your first finals appearance, did MC give you any advice on taking down Nestea?
(Inca) – MC didn’t give any special tips or anything for this match. I have been mostly preparing and researching builds on my own for the finals. Since Nestea barely scraped by sC it may come off as overconfidence but…, if I had played that match, I would have come out with a 3:0 score.

- You will be playing after the 1.3.3 patch.
(Nestea) – I have been practicing on the North American server with the new patch, so I am not that worried. I don’t think the zerg vs protoss matchup has changed that much with the new patch. The sentry is faster to come out now, but the warp gate tech is slower so zerg may have a bit of an easier time in the early game. Protoss is good race in the late game, but since Inca is such a weak player, it probably won’t matter.
(Inca) – I guess there isn’t much change for zerg players. As for protoss players, we have had to adapt and change our builds so I have been working on new builds for the last couple of days. (After a short pause) What I just heard from Nestea is pretty shocking. But I think I can take on a zerg right now.

- If you had to describe how you felt when you knew you would be in the finals…
(Inca) – When I was sure that I was in the finals, I was extremely happy to have completed one of my goals. It didn’t really dawn on me until later, but I was feeling pretty good at the time.

- After your match, you must have seen the past winner banners hanging in the studio, how does that make you feel?
(Inca) – After seeing the 4 players, I felt that there were too few of them. It already feels like some players are taking charge, and of course since Nestea is already an older player, I am worried that he may be stifling new younger player’s growths by taking their space on that wall. I think I will have to take this chance and do away with that possibility for this time.

- Inca, your PvZ seems to be your weakness.
(Inca) - 3 of those losses came on a 6 pool, and once I lost on a cannon rush failure. I lost those in a cheesy way so I don’t think you can count those to say my PvZ skill is lacking. The reason such saying as the “Inca Rule” came about back in closed beta was because I was able to defeat zergs even when protosses could not defeat overpowered zergs. Since I was able to do beat zergs then (**even when they were the best), I don’t think it will be difficult for me to win now. It’s just because I haven’t had good luck in that matchup for a while. I believe it is possible for me to win.

- Inca doesn’t have much of a record against zergs, has it been difficult for you to study his style since he has such a few games against them?
(Nestea) – They say that Inca was a strong player back in the beta, but I wasn’t playing back then. But I don’t think I will really need to particularly study him. What the protoss is capable of doing has changed somewhat since then, so now as long as I keep a lookout I should be able to stop whatever shenanigans he pulls. If he tries some obvious play, he will be sent home packing with a 2nd place finish.

- The warp gate research time has been increased.
(Nestea) – That is one change that I feel like will help me out. I think Inca may use that timing to his advantage to do something sneaky, but by that time, I will have my forces out to deal with it so I don’t think it will be a problem.

- Was it hard for you to come up with new strategies on short notice?
(Inca) – I hardly watch any games by other players. Usually, my builds are made by me thinking about them, and I have had two days to perfect my builds. Even if the match were to be played today, I would be ready to go.

- Isn’t the early game cheese going to be weaker?
(Inca) – I used some early game all-in builds on this patch and they are indeed weaker. So I changed up a lot of things. I plan to show something that will be much different than the current state of PvZ.

- In the finals, the earlier maps seem to favor protoss, your thoughts?
(Nestea) – There are no good maps for zergs anyways. Where they are all doable with protoss, I would say for zergs, you could say scrap station is about it. If I can win the 1st set, I think I will win with a score of 4:0 or 4:1. If I lose the 1st set, I will win with a score of 4:2.

- What do you think about the map balance?
(Inca) – Against good players, I don’t think protoss are favored at all on these maps. Every time I read or listen to Nestea’s interviews, I always wonder why he feigns weakness. There are a variety of strategies and the data suggests that zergs are definitely not weak on these maps. If there are any problems, it is the fault of the zerg players not the map balance.

- There are a lot of complaints among the regular zerg user base.
(Nestea) – To be honest, to play against protoss is ridiculously simple. I know I have qqed plenty before, but in the teamhouse practice, I hardly lose to them. I don’t know why we (as a race) are losing to them so much. Maybe Inca will show me some of those reasons.

- How are the players practicing for this match?
(oGsCoach) – Up until yesterday, other than me, all of the other zergs on the team were helping him. Rather than practice, there has been a lot of theorycrafting and conversations. Nestea plays a pretty transparent style, as observed by everyone. So we are about done combing through his playstyle. I fell in the preliminaries yesterday, so I was thinking that I can take my frustration out by making sure that Inca takes the championship. I wonder how much swagger will Nestea next week. Inca is a good developer of builds. Ever since the closed beta, Inca’s innovation in strategies made a saying called the ‘Inca rule.’ He practices real hard so I believe he will get good results.
(IMCoach) – I believe our team’s zergs are the best. Since (Inca) he is practicing against zergs that are not in our team, we aren’t that worried about it. When you think about all the builds that protoss can do, it just goes on to clutter your mind, so I believe it is important that Nestea plays like he usually plays. So we are more focused on keeping his condition fresh by rest and controlling the amount of practice. Taking good rests and drinking once (?) in a while… I think it is more important to have your mind under control. Even if Nestea does not practice like it’s life or death, he will still win.

- If you were to mention anything specific about the balance in this patch?
(Inca) – I didn’t really want to practice on the new patch, because I feel like protoss has gotten the short end of the stick. So I think when a protoss player wins, it will be due to skill where as if other races win, it will be because of racial luck. As MC always says ‘I cannot lose’ and I always say ‘I can’t win’. Between the two of us, we come up with the best builds or macro styles. But against terran, protosses with 3/3 upgrades can be pushed back with 1/1 marauders. EMP is pretty powerful, and now they made that even easier to get. I can’t understand it. And as for zergs, when they hit 200 population they have many good unit combinations they can utilize. Of course if you are dumb and go roach/hydra only you will lose, but with good use of infestors or brood lords they can win easily.
(Nestea) – I cannot agree one bit about how protoss are weak. Protoss are extremely strong. It’s just because Inca is a bad player. He just doesn’t realize it. If he had played just one game with zerg he would recognize that right away. When you face protosses, if you make a mistake in recognizing their build, you can lose in one blow. And they got an arsenal of strategies to do that with. I hope they do more to reduce the number (as they done with warp gate tech). A lot of times, zergs have to think about so many things that they crumble under pressure. Sometimes, even when I play my best, zerg just loses. It is unfair. I don’t even know why bunkers can salvage in the first place. Maybe they should just let spine crawlers and cannons be salvageable too. I had a lot to say, but I will stop here. (**I think Nestea is just joking for the most part)

- Let’s be honest here, what do you think the real score will be?
(Nestea) – As I said before, the 1st set will be pivotal. If I win the 1st set, I think I can take it 4:2. If I lose the 1st set, it may go to the last game but no matter what, I still think I will win.
(Inca) – I also think the 1st set will be important. Momentum is really important in these matches so rather than catching up; it is easier to win when you are ahead. I think whether or not it goes well or not well for me, the score will be 4:3. Of course, I believe I will win.

- What did you think about sC as an opponent?
(Nestea) – I pegged him as being one of the hardest players, if not the hardest, to face since the beginning of this season. I both lost and won against him many times on ladder, but I saw that he was extremely good against zerg opponents. I thought as long as I beat him I could beat anyone.

- After Nestea’s match (*the epic end to the semis), the focus on you has decreased, what do you think?
(Inca) – I don’t think about that too much. But the race I wanted to avoid the most was zerg. In the beginning of the season, the two players I wanted to avoid the most were Zenio and Nestea. I may be a bit on the losing end in terms of the matchup, but I believe there will be good games overall in this match, so I am looking forward to it.

- In the round of 8 and the round of 4, you showed some incredible stuff. Are you pressured to show something similarly spectacular for the finals?
(Nestea) – I created a lot of builds for when I had to face Anypro. But the only one that really worked was in the 1st set. I prepared many things, so as long as Inca does what I want him to do, I will plan to show some spectacular strategies.

- T-ara came to cheer you guys on, which of them are you usually a fan of?
(Nestea) – I liked Eunjeung, but she cheered for Inca.
(Inca) – To be honest, I don’t really know the names of girl bands. I knew about Jiyeon, but all the players have been saying that Eunjeung was the prettiest…so I am happy.

- If you use a strategy on battlenet it goes around pretty quickly, any complaints?
(Nestea) – I am extremely dissatisfied. When I ladder I cannot use a build that I would regularly use. So rather than taking the ladder seriously, I use it as fun or recreation. I use the ladder to feign weakness and I also use weird builds to play mind games on possible opponents.
(Inca) – I usually only use builds that I don’t really think are good on the ladder. Sometimes, before matches I want to check the effectiveness of the strategy so I practice on a different ID sometimes.

- The biggest difference between Inca and MC?
(Inca) – MC is a player who knows how to win. In any given situation, he just knows what he needs to do to take the win. I think I am lacking in that department. For me, I have many scenarios built in my mind, and there are many roads in there I can take.

- If you were to judge your opponent’s team?
(IMCoach) – oGs has the longest history (of the sc2 teams), and they have a large player base, so creating strategies and practicing may be pretty good. I believe because of that they have had good success. However, oGs only has MC who has 2 victories where as our team has 4 finals appearances (with 3 wins). oGs may be a team with good base skill and a variety of players, but our team has strong individual players, where it wouldn’t be weird for any one of them to achieve victory. I heard that TheWind does a good job controlling his players and taking care of them. In that aspect, I will need to learn a bit from him.
(oGsCoach) – I believe their success is because their players are so good. No matter how good the coach is, if the players don’t have the skill or put in the effort there is nothing you can do. IM is a team where both requirements of that are met. They are trying to win their 4th championship and we also have had MC win championships for us. But the difference is, since I am a player as well as a coach, I have a greater understanding for the situations that the players go through. But sometimes, there is the disadvantage of not being able to discipline them as much. I think the IMCoach has a good strong stance toward his players that I need to learn from him.

- There has been a bit of a skill gap amongst the players (pro/non-pro), and the player pool has stagnated a bit.
(IMCoach) – In my opinion, the gap is inevitable between players. To be honest, I want to increase our team size but I can’t really find fitting players. I hope that the base play skill will increase in the future.
(oGsCoach) – I agree with the IMCoach about the base skill of the players. But as the builds get better known and established, there will be a quick realignment back to equality. It isn’t a time where everyone can enjoy playing at the highest level.

- You don’t have an established nickname.
(Inca) – I haven’t really thought about that. There isn’t a big image associated with me yet so I don’t feel like I need a nickname right now.

- As a 30 year old, what kind of investment strategies do you use?
(Nestea) - I don’t have any special thing that I do; I just regularly put money into my savings. I really want to get my own place but real estate isn’t so good right now, so I am a bit worried.

- Anything you want to do special with the prize money?
(Inca) – It may be because I am young, but I use up my money pretty quickly. I have a tendency to buy things no matter how expensive they are. I think I have earned around 10K but I have none left. To be in the negative already at this age… I am not a shopping addict. It’s almost like I have no idea where I spent my money, so I feel like I have no set plans to do something specific with the money. I think I will at least put some in the bank this time.

- Any last words going into the final?
(Nestea) – Playing zerg is difficult, so I want to win and become like an oasis for all the zerg users.
(Inca) – Many zerg players are hoping for a Nestea victory. And since he is bearing all the hopes and dream of zergs everywhere, I was hoping to crush him… But this is the first time I feel like the games may go to the final strategy (plan z if you will…) that I prepare, I am happy such an opponent will be against me in the finals. I think it will be a fun final.

임재덕과 송준혁은 서로 웃고 있었지만 날카로웠다.

5월 12일, 서울 대치동 그래텍 사옥에서 LG 시네마 3D GSL May 미디어데이가 개최됐다. 미디어데이 현장에서는 결승전을 이틀 앞둔 oGs의 송준혁과 박상익 감독, IM의 임재덕과 강동훈 감독이 치열한 설전을 벌였다.

양 선수와 감독은 도발과 동시에 각 종족을 대변해 불만을 토로하며 적극적으로 인터뷰에 응했다. 임재덕과 송준혁은 서로 재치 있는 입담으로 신경전을 벌이며 현장을 웃음바다로 만들기도 했다.

LG 시네마 3D GSL May 코드S 결승전은 오는 5월 14일 오후 3시, 대구 EXCO에서 펼쳐질 예정이다.

다음은 5월 12일 진행된 미디어데이 인터뷰 전문이다.


▼ 결승전에 진출한 소감은?
- 오랜만에 다시 결승에 올라와서 기쁘다. 4강 경기 마지막에 이기기 힘들었는데, 역전하고 올라와서 좋다. 저그로써 두 번째 결승에 오른 것도 기쁘고, 마냥 좋기만 하다. (임재덕)
- 너무 늦게 올라온 것 같아 아쉽다. 한 번만 지고 쭉쭉 올라왔는데, 결승에서도 그렇게 될 것 같다. (결승에서도 한 판만 질 것 같다며)내가 다 아쉽다. (송준혁)
- 특별한 소감은 없다. 결승에 올라온 것만으로도 고맙고, 우승을 위한 생각만 하고 있다. 4:0은 불쌍하니 4:1 정도로 생각하고 있다. 임재덕과는 동갑이고 예전부터 친한 사이다. 종족도 같고, 저그로써 한탄도 많이 했는데 그만큼 당해야 한다. (박상익)
- 정말 기쁘다. 무엇보다 4강전 5경기의 말도 안 되는 승리 때문에 더 기쁜 것 같다. 원래 감독이 선수를 믿고 응원해야 맞는 건데, 사실 나도 그 상황에 포기하고 있었다. 힘겹게 올라온 만큼 좋은 성과가 있을 것이라 확신한다. 정종현과 임재덕은 항상 우승후보였고, 이들의 우승은 당연하다. 스코어는 중요하지 않다. 좋은 경기를 펼칠 수 있도록 하겠다. (강동훈)

▼ 임재덕은 저그 최초로 2회 결승 진출인데?
- 조금은 걱정된다. 송준혁이 내 경기력을 따라올 수 있을지…. 결승에 어울리지 않는 쉬운 상대라 생각한다. 4강에서 이미 결승전을 치렀다고 생각한다. (임재덕)

▼ 송준혁은 첫 결승 진출인데, 장민철이 임재덕을 이기기 위한 비법을 전수해줬나?
- 장민철 선수가 따로 전해준 것은 없다. 결승전도 거의 독자적으로 연구하고 있다. 겨우 김승철 선수를 상대로 그렇게 힘들게 하셨으니 이런 말하기 좀 부끄러우실 텐데…. 내가 했다면 3:0이 나왔을 것이다. (송준혁)

▼ 1.3.3 패치 후 경기를 치르는데?
- 연습은 패치 된 북미서버에서 할 수 있어서 큰 걱정은 없다. 저그와 프로토스는 크게 패치 되는 것이 없는 것 같다. 파수기가 일찍 나오긴 하지만 차관이 느려지기 때문에 초반엔 저그가 좀 더 좋을 것 같다. 프로토스는 후반에 센 종족이지만 어차피 송준혁은 약한 선수이기 때문에 상관없다. (임재덕)
- 저그 입장에선 별로 변화한 게 없는 것 같다. 프로토스 입장에선 빌드를 다시 짜야 해서 이틀 동안 빌드를 새로 구성하는데 주력했다. (잠시 주춤하며)방금 들은 이야기가 충격이 좀 크다. 그래도 저그전은 할 만하다고 생각한다. (송준혁)

▼ 결승전 진출이 확정됐을 때의 느낌을 표현한다면?
- 결승 확정이라는 소리를 들었을 때 목표를 이룬 것 같아 기뻤다. 실감은 나지 않았는데, 그냥 좋았다. (송준혁)

▼ 결승전 직후 스튜디오에 걸린 역대 우승자의 사진을 볼 때 어떤 생각을 했나?
- 4명을 보며 사람이 적다고 생각했다. 벌써 독식하는 느낌도 나고. 특히 임재덕 선수는 나이도 많으신데 미래가 창창한 어린 새싹들이 밟혀서 빛을 못 볼까 걱정된다. 내가 이참에 밟아드려야 한다고 생각했다. (송준혁)

▼ 송준혁은 저그전이 다소 약해 보이는데?
- 3패는 6산란못 전략이나, 광자포 러쉬를 실패해서 진 것들이다. 허무하게 져서 그렇지 경기력은 나쁘지 않다고 생각한다. ‘잉카류’란 말 생긴 것이 클로즈베타 때 프로토스가 저그를 못 이길 때 생긴 말이다. 그렇게 저그가 좋았을 때도 잘 잡았으니 어렵다고 생각하지 않는다. 단지 운이 없었을 뿐이다. 할 만하다고 생각한다. (송준혁)

▼ 송준혁의 저그전 전적이 많지 않다. 상대의 스타일을 파악하기가 쉽지 않을 것 같은데?
- 송준혁 선수가 예전에 강했다고 하는데, 그 땐 내가 게임을 안 할 때였다. 딱히 분석까진 안 해도 될 것 같다. 프로토스가 할 수 있는 것들이 좀 뻔해서, 눈치만 채면 쉽게 막을 수 있다. 뻔한 전략을 썼다간 준우승하고 집에 돌아가게 될 것이다. (임재덕)

▼ 차관 업그레이드 시간이 수정됐는데?
- 한 가지 변수가 줄었기 때문에 도움이 될 것 같다. 송준혁이 그 타이밍을 역이용할 것 같은 생각도 들지만 그 때 쯤이면 나도 조합을 갖추고 있기 때문에 괜찮을 것이다. (임재덕)

▼ 새로운 빌드 연구가 힘들지는 않은가?
- 다른 선수의 게임은 거의 보지 않는다. 혼자 만들어간다고 생각하고, 이미 지난 이틀 동안 빌드를 완성했다. 당장 오늘 경기를 해도 상관이 없다. (송준혁)

▼ 초반 찌르기가 약해질 것 같은데?
- 원래 쓰던 올인 빌드를 이것저것 써봤는데 약해졌다. 여러 가지를 보완했다. 기존의 저그전과는 다른 경기를 할 것이다. (송준혁)

▼ 결승전 맵 순서 중 앞쪽의 맵들이 프로토스에 유리해 보이는데?
- 저그가 좋은 맵은 없다. 프로토스는 다 할 만한데, 저그가 할 만한 것은 고철처리장 정도라고 생각한다. 1세트만 이긴다면 4:0에서 4:1 정도로 이길 것이라 생각한다. 1세트를 지면 4:2 정도로 이길 것이라 생각한다. (임재덕)

▼ 맵 밸런스에 대해 어떻게 생각하나?
- 실력이 좋은 선수들 사이에선 프로토스가 저그 상대로 절대 유리하지 않은 것 같다. 임재덕 선수 인터뷰를 볼 때마다 왜 이렇게 약한 척을 하나 생각했다. 전략도 무한하고 데이터 상으로도 저그가 절대 약하지 않다고 생각한다. 저그 유저들 실력 문제이지 절대 밸런스 문제는 아닌 것 같다. (송준혁)

▼ 일반적인 유저들 사이에선 저그들의 불만이 있는데?
- 솔직하게 프로토스전은 굉장히 쉽다. 많이 징징대긴 했는데, 팀 내에서 연습을 할 때 거의 지지 않는다. 프로토스한테 왜 지는지를 모르겠다. 송준혁이 그 이유를 알려줬으면 좋겠다. (임재덕)

▼ 선수들은 어떻게 연습을 하고 있나?
- 어제까지는 나를 제외한 저그 선수들이 도와줬다. 연습보다는 대화를 많이 했다. 임재덕은 누가 봐도 뻔한 스타일이다. 분석도 어느 정도 끝낸 상태다. 어제 승강전에서 떨어졌는데, 이걸 어떻게 풀어야 하나 생각하다 준혁이를 우승시킬 생각만 하고 있다. 임재덕의 거만함이 다음 주에도 계속될지 궁금하다. 송준혁이 빌드 개발을 잘한다. 클베 시절부터 송준혁은 올인전 략을 여러 방향으로 연구하며 ‘잉카류’란 말을 만들어냈다. 연습도 열심히 해서 좋은 성과가 있을 것 같다. (박상익)
- 우리 팀 저그가 가장 강하다고 생각한다. 우리 팀 외의 저그 선수들과 연습했기 때문에 크게 걱정하지 않는다. 프로토스의 빌드를 생각하면 오히려 머리만 아프기 때문에, 오히려 하던 대로 하는 것이 중요하다고 생각한다. 휴식을 많이 취하며 컨디션 조절에 힘쓰고 있다. 많이 자고 술도 한 잔(?) 하고…. 정신적인 안정을 취하는 것이 중요한 것 같다. 굳이 죽어라 연습하지 않아도 이길 것 같다. (강동훈)

▼ 이번 패치의 밸런스에 대해 구체적으로 언급하자면?
- 언급하고 싶지 않았는데, 프로토스가 가장 안 좋다고 생각한다. 프로토스가 이기면 실력이고 다른 종족은 ‘종족빨’이라고 생각한다. 장민철은 “질 수가 없다” 하고, 나는 “절대 못 이긴다”고 말한다. 그 가운데서 최고의 운영이나 빌드가 나온다. 테란전에선 프로토스가 3/3 업그레이드를 해도 불곰의 1/1 업그레이드에 밀릴 때가 있다. EMP도 강한데, 그걸 또 상향했다. 이해할 수 없다. 저그전에서 저그가 인구수 200을 최고조합으로 갖추면 저그는 활용할 유닛이 많다. 무식하게 바퀴나 히드라만 뽑으면 당연히 지지만, 감염충이나 무리군주 등을 다양하게 쓰면 이길 수 있다. (송준혁)
- 프로토스가 약하다는 말에 절대 동의할 수 없다. 프로토스는 굉장히 세다. 송준혁이 못할 뿐이다. 양심이 없다. 저그로 한 판만 해보면 알 것이다. 프로토스를 상대할 때 상대의 빌드가 뭔지 모르면 한방에 무너진다. 굉장히 전략이 많다. 이걸 어떻게 해줬으면 좋겠다. 저그는 생각할 것이 너무 많아서 스스로 무너지게 된다. 내가 아무리 잘해도 저그는 지게 된다. 억울하다. 벙커는 대체 왜 회수되는지 모르겠다. 가시촉수나 광자포도 회수를 시켜줬으면 좋겠다. 정말 할 이야기 많지만 여기까지만 하겠다. (임재덕)

▼ 이번 결승전의 승부처와 솔직한 예상 스코어는?
- 여태껏 심리전으로 얘기했지만, 1세트가 중요할 것 같다. 1세트에서 이기면 4:2 정도로 생각하고 있다. 1세트를 지면 마지막까지 갈지도 모르겠지만, 어쨌든 내가 이길 것 같다. (임재덕)
- 1세트를 중요하게 생각하고 있다. 기세나 심리전이 중요하기 때문에 뒤쪽보단 앞쪽 맵에서 승부가 갈릴 것 같다. 잘되든 안 되든 4:3까지 갈 것 같다. 물론 내가 이길 것이다. (송준혁)

▼ 김승철은 어떤 상대였나?
- 이번 시즌 시작하면서 가장 힘든 상대로 꼽고 있었다. 래더에서 많이 지기도 하고 이기기도 했는데, 저그전을 굉장히 잘하더라. 김승철만 이기면 누구든 다 이길 수 있다고 생각했다. (임재덕)

▼ 임재덕의 경기 후, 자신에 대한 관심이 줄어든 것 같았는데?
- 그런 생각 별로 하지 않았다. 제일 피하고 싶던 종족이 저그였다. 시즌 시작할 때 피하고 싶은 두 선수가 있었는데 최정민, 임재덕 선수였다. 단판에서는 내가 불리하다고 생각했다. 다전제에서는 좋은 경기가 많이 나올 것 같아서 기대하고 있다. (송준혁)

▼ 8강과 4강에서 정말 많은 것을 보여줬다. 결승전의 경기 내용에 대한 부담감이 있을 것 같은데?
- 이정환 선수를 상대할 때 빌드를 많이 만들어 놨다. 제대로 써먹은 것은 1세트 뿐이었다. 많은 것들이 준비돼있는데, 송준혁이 내가 원하는 대로만 움직인다면 멋진 전략을 선보일 예정이다. (임재덕)

▼ 티아라가 응원을 했는데, 평소 누구의 팬이었나?
- 은정양을 좋아했는데, 송준혁을 응원했다. (임재덕)
- 사실 걸그룹 멤버들의 이름을 잘 모른다. 지연씨는 알고 있었는데, 선수들이 은정씨가 제일 예쁘다고 해서… 좋다. (송준혁)

▼ 배틀넷 연습 시 전략이 많이 공개가 되고 있는데, 불편함은 없나?
- 굉장히 불편하다. 래더 할 때 쓰고 싶은 빌드를 쓸 수가 없다. 그래서 래더는 연습보단 재미로 한다. 래더를 이용해 못하는 척도 하고, 이상한 빌드도 쓰며 심리전을 걸기도 한다. (임재덕)
- 평소 안 좋다고 생각하는 빌드만 사용한다. 대회 앞두고 역이용할 생각만 하고, 다른 아이디로 연습하기도 한다. (송준혁)

▼ 송준혁과 장민철의 가장 다른 점은?
- 장민철은 이기는 방법을 가장 잘 아는 선수다. 어떤 상황에서 어떻게 하면 이길 수 있는지 다 알고 있다. 나는 그 부분에 있어서 부족한 것 같다. 나는 내 나름대로의 시나리오가 있고, 그 안에 다양한 길이 있다. (송준혁)

▼ 상대팀에 대해 평가 한다면?
- oGs는 가장 오래됐고, 가장 두터운 선수층을 보유해서 전략 공유나 연습 환경이 좋은 것 같다. 그런 부분 때문에 좋은 성적이 나오는 것 같다. 다만 oGs는 장민철 혼자 2회 우승을 했고, 우리는 결승만 4번째다. oGs는 탄탄하고 다양한 선수층을 보유하고 있다. 우리에게 자극을 주는 팀이고, 언제 우승해도 이상하지 않을 정도의 강팀이라고 생각한다. 박상익 감독의 선수 컨트롤이나 배려가 좋다고 들었다. 그런 부분은 배워야할 것 같다. (강동훈)
- 선수들이 잘하기 때문이라고 생각한다. 아무리 지도자가 뛰어나도 선수들 개개인의 실력과 노력이 없다면 소용없다고 생각한다. IM은 그런 조건이 밑바탕이 된 것 같다. 4회 우승이라고 하는데, 우리도 장민철이 해외에서 우승했다. IM과 다른 점은, 내가 플레잉감독이기 때문에 선수들 입장에 대한 생각이 크다. 혼내야할 때 혼내지 못하는 단점도 있다. 강동훈 감독은 똑 부러지는 것 같아 그 부분을 배워야할 것 같다. (박상익)

▼ 국내 선수들 간의 격차가 크고, 선수풀이 한정적인 것 같은데?
- 개인적으로도 선수들 간의 격차가 있다고 생각한다. 사실 팀원을 더 늘리고 싶어도 성에 차는 선수가 없다. 빠른 시일 내에 선수층이 두터워졌으면 좋겠다. (강동훈)
- 선수층에 대해서는 강동훈 감독과 같은 의견이다. 빌드가 노출되고 하면 금방 평준화가 될 것 같다. 아직까진 다수가 즐기지 못하는 것 같다. (박상익)

▼ 송준혁은 아직 뚜렷한 별명이 없는데?
- 아직 생각해본 적은 없다. ‘송준혁’스럽다는 이미지가 있기 때문에 크게 연연하지 않는다. 아직까진 별명의 필요성을 못 느끼고 있다. (송준혁)

▼ 30대인 임재덕 선수는 어떤 재테크 방법을 활용하고 있나?
- 따로 재테크 하는 것은 없고, 예금에만 넣어두고 있다. 집을 하나 장만하고 싶은데, 요새 부동산이 안 좋아서 고민이다. (임재덕)

▼ 상금으로 특별히 하고 싶은 것이 있나?
- 나이가 어려서 그런지 몰라도 돈을 쉽게 쓰는 편이다. 아무리 비싸도 바로바로 써버리는 경우가 많다. 지금까지 천만 원 정도를 번 것 같은데, 남은 게 없다. 이 나이에 벌써 마이너스 통장이…. 쇼핑 중독은 아니다. 어디 썼는지도 모를 정도로 계획 없이 쓴 것 같다. 이번엔 적금이라도 들 것이다. (송준혁)

▼ 마지막으로 결승전을 앞둔 각오를 말해 달라.
- 저그의 암울기인데, 우승해서 저그 유저들의 오아시스 같은 존재가 되고 싶다. (임재덕)
- 많은 저그 유저들이 임재덕 선수의 우승을 기원하고 있다. 저그의 꿈과 희망을 책임지고 있어 마음 같아선 처참하게 이기고 싶은데…. 여태껏 전력을 다한 게임이 한두 게임밖에 없는 것 같은데, 전력을 다할 수 있는 상대가 올라와 기쁘다. 재밌는 결승전이 될 것 같다. (송준혁)

Oh man! Between this Plan Z talk and TheWind saying 4-0 (maybe 4-1) Inca over Nestea, I'm thinking Inca is going to lay down the "Inca Rule". I'm really rooting for nestea though ^^ Thanks for translating this interview!

- There are a lot of complaints among the regular zerg user base.
(Nestea) – To be honest, to play protoss is ridiculously simple. I know I have qqed plenty before, but in the teamhouse practice, I hardly lose to them. I don’t know why we (as a race) are losing to them so much. Maybe Inca will show me some of those reasons.

Lol there is so much of this throughout the whole interview it is quite entertaining. I really want Nestea to take this one; i have always rooted for him because of what he copped when he first began in SC2. I hope he becomes that "oasis" for zerg users

So,
-Inca has lost 3 times to 6pools

-NesTea said "As I said before, the 1st set will be pivotal. If I win the 1st set, I think I can take it 4:2. If I lose the 1st set, it may go to the last game but no matter what, I still think I will win", but before he said " but he actually said before "If I can win the 1st set, I think I will win with a score of 4:0 or 4:1. If I lose the 1st set, I will win with a score of 4:2" <- losing his mind

-They each wanted each others T-ara girl or something like that

-The "Inca rule" is to cheese when you think you don't stand a chance against a player (or race), which is what most people think just Inca decided to slap his name on it >.>

thanks for the translation

NesTea will destroy him. I hope he 6 pools at least once (at least, because you know, it could probably even work twice)

@rift

I think Nestea means to play against Protoss... which makes more sense with what he says later. But I also did think he meant to play as Protoss at first. But again that wouldn't make as much sense with what he says right after that.

(Nestea) – I have been practicing on the North American server with the new patch, so I am not that worried. I don’t think the zerg vs protoss matchup has changed that much with the new patch. The sentry is faster to come out now, but the warp gate tech is slower so zerg may have a bit of an easier time in the early game. Protoss is good race in the late game, but since Inca is such a weak player, it probably won’t matter.

yay Nestea practices on the NA server ;o niiiiiice

(Nestea) – I liked Eunjeung, but she cheered for Inca.
(Inca) – To be honest, I don’t really know the names of girl bands. I knew about Jiyeon, but all the players have been saying that Eunjeung was the prettiest…so I am happy.

*facepalms at inca*

(Nestea) - I don’t have any special thing that I do; I just regularly put money into my savings. I really want to get my own place but real estate isn’t so good right now, so I am a bit worried.
(Inca) – It may be because I am young, but I use up my money pretty quickly. I have a tendency to buy things no matter how expensive they are. I think I have earned around 10K but I have none left. To be in the negative already at this age… I am not a shopping addict. It’s almost like I have no idea where I spent my money, so I feel like I have no set plans to do something specific with the money. I think I will at least put some in the bank this time.


basicly so nestea is good about saving his winnings and not wasting it.
Inca however...... squanders it....



Go Nestea. <3

Lol, Nestea is so bad. Only 59% win on ladder and 66th place.

O wait:

- If you use a strategy on battlenet it goes around pretty quickly, any complaints?
(Nestea) – I am extremely dissatisfied. When I ladder I cannot use a build that I would regularly use. So rather than taking the ladder seriously, I use it as fun or recreation. I use the ladder to feign weakness and I also use weird builds to play mind games on possible opponents.

Haha it would be so funny to have Nestea goofing around and still win. I was really confused to why he was doing so bad on ladder until I read this.

@zhurai

GOM said Blizzard provided Nestea and Inca with NA accounts to practice while the server was down in Korea due to the patch, so I don't think it's a regular thing.

Also, I REALLY really hope this series isn't short. We have yet to see a 4-3 or 4-2 series where the total game time is over 2 hours, and where at least 1 set the resources are almost all mined out and they're desperately long distance mining.

Of course I really want Nestea to win, but it better not be like a July vs MC finals ^_^

He's also Zerg, so the win % tends to be 10-20% lower then Protoss or Terran. Has been since release of SC2.

nestea taking the mind games to another level. even faked out scfou into thinking he was weak with his bad ladder play. I hope inca doesn't just do one all in after another, because I believe nestea will just crush that kind of play and we'll have another lackluster finals. thanks for posting the interview translation.

Rofl this worked against sC xD

sC said:
Nestea doesn't play properly or seriously on ladder, so I thought he wasn't that good but when I played versus him in the GSL MAY Code S semi-finals, he was very good so I was caught off guard.


I don't know why sC was surprised by the best Zerg in the world though, like he doesn't even watch him play or something

Really? nestea is really strong at holding off cheese, i remember him holding off a 4 gate where, the protoss player was starting to move across the map and nestea had a total of 1 zergling but was pooling larva until the 4 gate timing passed made a shit ton of units and held it off.

I think if anyone can deal with inca's shenanigans it will be nestea.

(Nestea) – To be honest, to play protoss is ridiculously simple. I know I have qqed plenty before, but in the teamhouse practice, I hardly lose to them. I don’t know why we (as a race) are losing to them so much. Maybe Inca will show me some of those reasons.


now i'm REALLY interested in the finals.

(Nestea) – I cannot agree one bit about how protoss are weak. Protoss are extremely strong. It’s just because Inca is a bad player. He just doesn’t realize it.


My favorite part

although I'm sure all the trash talk that was said between the two was in good fun rather than being serious so hopefully no moron gets the wrong impression of their personalities

Oh man, I haven't been this excited for a final in a while. IMO a lot of the recent finals have been lackluster, with one player pretty much dominating the other, but I think this will be a very entertaining finals. :3

I think you guys are misunderstanding. Maybe it needs clarification with respect to the translation, but I read that as its simple to play as zerg against protoss. Not that using protoss is simple. Atleast thats what it seem like to me within its context.

I still think This should be easy, and that nestea was right in saying that vsSC was the finals.

he means that it's easy to play against protoss, you can't derive the other meaning unless you take it grossly out of context.

though it still might be an imba joke depending on whether or not his win record agains IM tosses is indeed crushing - only he has said he has little difficulty against toss before, in serious interviews.

Man this interveiw just makes me like Nestea more! Nestea has never been that confident in any other interveiw, and I think his confidence is justified since Inca does not have a very impressive record against Zerg like MC does.

I hope this is more friendly trash-talk like IMMvp and MarineKing did in the finals for the 4th GSL. If not, the interviews are still funny but NesTea fighting.

@Why NesTea and InCa have been playing on the NA server;
While Patch 1.3.3 was in the works for the KR server, there was downtime (as GOMTV has explained) and Blizzard very kindly presented the two with NA accounts to practice.

It's funny how korean culture usually seems to be all about respect, but when it comes to playing a finals in game/sports it tends to always come to "hwaitin!" spirit becoming the main issue - first do the egoing how you'll win easy and show off confidence, and only after that respect

- After Nestea’s match (*the epic end to the semis), the focus on you has decreased, what do you think?
(Inca) – I don’t think about that too much. But the race I wanted to avoid the most was zerg. In the beginning of the season, the two players I wanted to avoid the most were Zenio and Nestea. I may be a bit on the losing end in terms of the matchup, but I believe there will be good games overall in this match, so I am looking forward to it.

- If you were to mention anything specific about the balance in this patch?
(Inca) – I didn’t really want to practice on the new patch, because I feel like protoss has gotten the short end of the stick.

this solidifies who I think will win.

Inca isn't confident against zerg. Inca refuses to play on a patch that slightly weakens protoss.
I forsee the "inca rule" during finals.

I think this article is poorly translated. Or maybe some of the humor was left out.

First NesTea says that Protoss is easy to play against and he hasn't lost to them, then goes on saying they are hard to read and not weak? I guess in some sense I can see that all being true, but the tone changes quite drastically between the two.

EDIT:

Oh ok, it is just rapport between him and IncA, where Inca thinks why the race isn't that strong but NesTea disagrees. I think both of them over-exaggerated their points in that paragraph -___-

EDIT2:

NVM, guess both of them were joking/exaggerating a lot in that part. I guess I need to read the entire paragraph before posting,

i.e what the translator said (**I think Nestea is just joking for the most part).

Although salvageable cannons would be nice x)

No, he's saying that "playing protoss" is simple, not playing against protoss.

Hilarious interview :-p Really cheering for Nestea. If Inca does manage an upset, I hope he at least shows some good games. I don't blame anyone for cheesing, but that's not how I want to see a great guy like Nestea lose.

No he is saying playing against Protoss is simple, otherwise the paragraph doesn't run on fluently. It is the same when he says "to play mind games". When he means playing, he outright says it, i.e "Playing zerg is difficult"

(Nestea) – I am a bit worried. I am not sure if Inca can matchup to my level of play… I think he may be an opponent too easy for the finals. I guess I can just think my finals already happened against sC.

epic trash talking:

since Inca is such a weak player, it probably won’t matter.


Though i think that may have something to do with the translation

I love NesTea's confidence going into the match, I would have to agree with him based on previous performances NesTea is the heavy favorite. He said he was practicing on the NA server to play on the patch, so some lucky nerds out there got to play the best zerg on the planet and probably didn't even know who they were playing!

That may be the best interview of the history of GSL so far. I hope we also get the best finals so far (even though MC v Nestea would be a bit better) I like both players and I think Nestea is more prepared but he might get overconfident and lose to the Inca rule!!! I hope the one that practiced more wins (hard work wins are the best imo)!

And I think Nestea should practice against canon cheese ^^
Unless Inca mindgame him and 16 nexus the first game, which would be a very good move, because Nestea will prepare for proxy/canon/4 gate imo.

The trash talk was hilarious. Great interview from both perspectives and the coaches' comments were great too.

EDIT: Although I like Inca he doesn't stand a chance vs. Nestea.

IdrA a total favourite in Korea to be honest, they made a tribute video to him when he left. Koreans like the controversy, the colour and the confidence IdrA brings to the GSL. (I am not a IdrA fan).

Nestea and Inca are living up to the BM which we see in BW proleagues etc, not surprised.

Lol, Nestea is so bad. Only 59% win on ladder and 66th place.

O wait:

- If you use a strategy on battlenet it goes around pretty quickly, any complaints?
(Nestea) – I am extremely dissatisfied. When I ladder I cannot use a build that I would regularly use. So rather than taking the ladder seriously, I use it as fun or recreation. I use the ladder to feign weakness and I also use weird builds to play mind games on possible opponents.

Haha it would be so funny to have Nestea goofing around and still win. I was really confused to why he was doing so bad on ladder until I read this.

He's also Zerg, so the win % tends to be 10-20% lower then Protoss or Terran. Has been since release of SC2.


Not at all... Nice try though.

Many zerg players are hoping for a Nestea victory. And since he is bearing all the hopes and dream of zergs everywhere, I was hoping to crush him…


EL-OH-EL

Laughed pretty hard at that. I think Inca is my new Protoss hero, definitely rooting for him in the finals after that epic quote.

That quote is quite possibly the greatest statement ever uttered.

- There are a lot of complaints among the regular zerg user base.
(Nestea) – To be honest, to play protoss is ridiculously simple. I know I have qqed plenty before, but in the teamhouse practice, I hardly lose to them. I don’t know why we (as a race) are losing to them so much. Maybe Inca will show me some of those reasons.

(Nestea) – I cannot agree one bit about how protoss are weak. Protoss are extremely strong. It’s just because Inca is a bad player. He just doesn’t realize it. If he had played just one game with zerg he would recognize that right away. When you face protosses, if you make a mistake in recognizing their build, you can lose in one blow. And they got an arsenal of strategies to do that with. I hope they do more to reduce the number (as they done with warp gate tech). A lot of times, zergs have to think about so many things that they crumble under pressure. Sometimes, even when I play my best, zerg just loses. It is unfair. I don’t even know why bunkers can salvage in the first place. Maybe they should just let spine crawlers and cannons be salvageable too. I had a lot to say, but I will stop here. (**I think Nestea is just joking for the most part)


So In one quote he says playing against Protoss is simple, and another where he says they're extremely strong and hard to read. I'm so confused!


No, he's saying that "playing protoss" is simple, not playing against protoss.

Hilarious interview :-p Really cheering for Nestea. If Inca does manage an upset, I hope he at least shows some good games. I don't blame anyone for cheesing, but that's not how I want to see a great guy like Nestea lose.

No he is saying playing against Protoss is simple, otherwise the paragraph doesn't run on fluently. It is the same when he says "to play mind games". When he means playing, he outright says it, i.e "Playing zerg is difficult"


Good clarification.

Whoa, both look down on each other with such (seeming) overconfidence.. The way these folks talk is not the way top BW players talk. These folks here talk like speedy cheesers usually do. (I'm not saying that they are, just how they comment on things..) Well, to me the GSL tournament-based format seems to promote random aggression over laborious skill, but I could be wrong.

lol they are obviously both joking.. in reality, wiht the exception of very few players, korean pros are extremely well mannered with each other, and this is just verbal sparring. It's nice to see how abrasive it comes off when translated into english though... I'm an Inca fan, but he's gonna get destroyed I think -.-

Well, you know.. he did win the GSL once before so maybe a little arrogance is warranted.

I`m not just basing this on the interview ofcourse;
I also disliked how Inca all-inned Nada the whole time in the semi`s. but like i said it`s probably just me, as i don`t think i would hesitate to do so either if it meant i could beat somebody who is clearly more skilled...

all inned nada? if i recall third game, it was a macro game. please get your facts straight.

and get over it, even the pros all in. see, here is the TL bias: july 6 pool or 1 base all in and it's great. when jinro bunk rush, people are happy. but whenever a toss does something cheesy (except MC) people here qq.

QFT.

But yeah, seriously. So much trash-talking in this interview. The first impression I got was, "Wow, NesTea's kind of being an asshole, isn't he?" I guess it's expected of the two of them to mouth off at each other, though. Still, I'm surprised NesTea went so far; he's usually pretty mild-mannered and relatively humble compared to most of the other progamers.

Awesome interview. Some serious hype generation, indeed. To people who look down on friendly smack-talk, I guess some people just prefer the "I'll try my best for my fans" and "Please support me to the end" and "I'll show entertaining games." When in doubt, sports cliches is always an option.

It was an all-in, it's just the proxy got spotted and taken out before anything meaningful came out so the game became a macro game. There is no doubt in my mind that it was an allin build.

I`m afraid my facts are as straight as a ruler. Inca openly admitted he prepared 4 all-in strategies for his games against Nada. If you don`t believe me, look it up, as it was in a TL-thread i read it.
(+this^)

Coincidentally, i do not approve of all-ins of any form no matter the race or the player, but hey, that`s ust me again
