Iron aka JangMinChul : "I want to earn money for my mother"

[image loading]


- How do you feel about making it to Ro64?
▲ I went to oGs house yesterday to practice, and I think it helped. I just played 3 PvP matches, and it was tough.

- Why is PvP tough?
▲ I think PvP is more all-in than skill. I want to play a Zerg in Ro64. Zerg is just a meal to me (laughs).

- What made you switch to SC2?
▲ I didn't care about SC2 when it first came out, but I started after hearing about GSL. I thought about it a lot. I didn't get what I wanted in the contract, and since I can earn just as much if I make Ro32 in GSL, I decided to play SC2.

- Didn't you change not only because of the money, but because you were doing well?
▲ I tried it and I got to 900 on ladder. The max then was 1100, and after seeing my Korean rank, I got confident and decided to switch.

- Why did you join oGs?
▲ I don't think the team is that important, but Bright invited me. Since oGs players are good, I joined with the mindset to learn.

- You must have a strong determination since you gave up progaming for this.
▲ Since I joined oGs, I will get to at least Ro4 to hold up the name of the clan. I want to earn a lot of money for my mother.

- Who do you want to avoid the most?
▲ Of course, Tester. Also my teammates. Outside of my team, I want to avoid Jung Min Soo(ID?).

- You switched unexpectedly. A word to your fans?
▲ The comments on the article about my switch had 50:50 good and bad replies (laughs). I want to thank those who supported me, and I don't regret playing SC1 professionally, since I learned a lot from being with the team. I hope the SC2 fans cheer me on from now on.

+ Show Spoiler [Original Article] +

- 64강에 진출한 소감은
▲ 하루 전에 oGs 들어가 숙소에서 특훈을 했는데, 잘 된 것 같아 기쁘다. 방금 프로토스전만 세 판 했는데 굉장히 힘들었다.

- 프로토스전이 힘들었던 특별한 이유가 있나
▲ 프프전은 거의 실력 싸움 보다는 올인성이 강한 것 같다. 그래서 난 64강에 올라가면 저그와 만나고 싶다. 저그는 한 끼 식사일 뿐이다(웃음).

- 스타2로의 전향을 결심 하게 된 계기가 있다면
▲ 그냥 스타2가 처음 나왔을 때는 반응이 시큰둥 했는데 GSL 이야기를 접하고 스타2를 시작하게 됐다. 사실 많이 고민을 했다. 연봉 계약 때 적절한 연봉으로 협상이 이뤄지지 않았는데, GSL 32강 안에만 들면 연봉만큼 상금을 받을 수 있어서 스타2로 전향하게 됐다.

- 연봉 문제도 있겠지만, 실력이 따라줘서 전향을 결심한 것 아닌가
▲ 플레이를 해봤는데 래더 900까지 점수가 올랐다. 당시 맥시멈이 1100 이었는데 나의 국내 랭킹이 점점 높아지는 것을 보며 자신감이 생겼고, 전향해도 잘 할 수 있겠다 싶었다.

- oGs에 입단하게 된 이유는 무엇인가
▲ 팀에 들어가는 것은 크게 중요하다고 생각하지 않았는데, (김)성곤이 형과 스타2 하다가 친해졌고 진지하게 ‘올 생각 없냐’고 물으셨다. oGs 팀원들이 모두 잘 해서 배우기도 할 겸 들어가게 됐다.

- 프로게이머를 포기하고 전향을 한 만큼 각오가 남다를 것 같다
▲ 일단 oGs에 들어갔으니까 명문팀의 이름을 더럽히지 않게 최소 4강까지는 갈 것이다. 그리고 솔직히 내 자신을 위해서 열심히 한 것도 있는데, 돈을 많이 벌어서 어머니께 효도하고 싶은 생각이 더 크다.

- 본선에서 피하고 싶은 선수가 있나
▲ 제일 피하고 싶은건 역시 서기수 선수다. 그리고 같은 팀원들은 다 피하고 싶다. 우리 팀이 아닌 선수 중에서는 정민수 선수만 피하면 될 것 같다.

- 갑작스레 전향을 결정했는데, 팬들에게도 한 마디 한다면
▲ 전향 기사 밑에 달린 댓글을 보니까 욕하는 분도 있고 잘했다는 분도 있고 딱 5:5로 나뉘더라(웃음). 격려해주신 분들께 감사드리고, 스타1에서는 많은 활약을 못 했지만 팀 활동을 하며 여러가지 연습은 많이 된 것 같아서 후회 하지 않는다. 이제는 스타2 팬 분들이 많이 응원해주시면 좋겠다.

Yes he did. Also Artosis won his first round and got a bye for the next one so he is in round 3 and needs to win 2 more.

Korea musn't be that good (invested) at SC2 if Idra and TLO qualified so easily.
Not to detract from Idra and TLO of course, but I expected more from korea. More foreigner smashing.
Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Wow there are a LOT of byes in Artosis' bracket. Hopefully that means lower opposition quality.

Man, there are a lot less really strong players than I thought there'd be. But oh well, better for the foreigners.
So no fek

Been through this whole thread, but haven't seen any mention of him. I don't really keep up with StarCraft 2 happening too much, but is Sangho in this tourney?

What exactly, in the 1 month SC2 has been out, did you think would magically make Koreans better

IdrA and TLO are definitely "top 64" players. It's true that they didn't need to fight any really big names to qualify, though.

even thou koreans play ladder alot... id say the foreigners has the advantage tournament wise... they're more experience as to say... not much sc2 tournaments in korea... but in eu/us there's almost tour's everyday...

aswell as the fact that most progamers from BW didn't really transferred to sc2... cuz of KeSPA
