Wow, what a first match. The only real disappointment was Kal´s performance. He just has really bad micro. Wasting all his air units like that... You won´t even see that on Master level of play. His only wins so far were clear BO wins. Despite that, he was crushed over and over again, not looking good with his builds, micro, decision making at all. I wonder how long it´s gonna take until he is benched. Because leaving out players like Byun or Choya to play him seems very questionable. (Choya might not be the greatest macro game player, but he is at least a master of mindgames, knows his stuff in and out and has the micro to pull it off)
Also: Is choya now a coach or a player? I thought he joined as a player... Either way, he is a great addition to the team, because he will help all those talented players so much to bring out their best performance, when it matters. That´s what he has done at fOu/FXO for years and it kinda already worked out today.

Ah, thanks for bumping the thread, couldn't find it last week

Say what you want about Prime, seeing both Lucy and Polt in the Top 4 of IEM, Prime really produced some really good players!

Maru, MKP, Creator, Lucy, Polt... (I'd add Byun, but he was good before joining

)

+ Show Spoiler +

I'm really happy about them winning today too!

I see them winning against IM.
But SKT1 seems hard while sending State and Choya... And using MKP as 4th might bring along extra pressure. Kinda weird they're not using Byun yet.

Still, #ibelieve !

Go! Prime! Win! Prime!

Interview with Salvation:
+ Show Spoiler +

Q:What are your thoughts on recording your first proleague win?
Proleague is a new stage for me so I'm feeling good about securing my first win. In the future I hope there's many more wins to come.

Q:After you retired on starstale you ended up joining prime. Why?
For the sake of studying I stopped playing. But i thought studying wasn't right for me at the time so I ended up returning.

Q. You didn't have any nerves on your first proleague match?
I wasn't shaking at all. It's not my style when on stage.

Q.You took firm control of your match. Was this your plan in practice?
I prepared many things. I don't know how i got the advantages, I just kept playing and my opponent couldn't handle the the multiple harass. I judged that I had the advantage and went for the 'GG' rush (SCV pull).

Q.Why'd you end up going for the all-in rush
When I had the advantage I thought 'if i go now I can't lose.'

Q. Before in practice you had good results. Is that why you were finally able to force the coach to let you play.
It's not like that. This time I was doing well in practice so the coach told me to come out.

Q.Does today's win have a special meaning?
I think so. It's natural to think that every win is a must.

Q.Where you confident that you could secure the crucial third win after MKP and Creator?
I did have that confidence. If I practice hard then someday i'll be able to fulfill that crucial role of getting the third win more often.

Q. What are your goals for proleague?
I want to win in all the matches i'm given. Last saturday even the WCS NA Finals were on (and because I can't be there) I definetely want to advance. (TN: not exactly sure why he mentioned WCS NA finals.

Q. Any thing else you want to say?
For helping me in practice I want to thank Samsung eMotion and the Prime protosses. Thanks to my friends, I hope you all do well in the future.

Some things are hard to translate so there's probably quite a few mistakes but I think the general idea of each question is there. Also he mentioned 박한솔. If anyone know's who that is i'd like to know as well, thanks.
