After defeating July with 2:1, Leenock believe that to avoid the cruel and difficult up and down match ups he must do everything he can to defeat Seed, who just recently took out BoxeR. Only this way can his Code S spot be guaranteed. At the same time as the MLG 2011 Champion, Leenock hope he will face FXOz in the MLG 2012 Winter Season.


Q:How does it feel to win over July?

A:My opponent was very strong, I am happy that I was able to win, though my next opponent looks pretty strong, I need to prepare well against him.


Q:Against the very aggressive July, you chose to Fast expand in all 3 games.

A:The first and second game were on maps with long rush distances, I felt my opponent would chose to Fast expand as well so I decided to Fast expand.
The last game was because of Losira against DongRaeGu, as well as July beat me with a ling rush in one game already, I felt like he wouldn't use it again so I fast expanded

Q:The second game ended with the quick pool

A:I went for a 15 pool/16 hatch but my opponent had his pool much quicker. It was a build order loss

Q:Your round 3 oppoent is Seed

A:My opponent is very strong, I will have to practice hard, I often lose to protoss in tournaments, this time I will work hard to win.

Q:The up and down match looks like a group of death, would your chances to win be better in the Round of 3? (to get into Code S)

A:Yes, the up and down match will be very difficult, so I will focus everything on my next match


Q: You will participate in MLG again soon

A:Leaving the day after tomorrow, I don't feel as pressured since I have won the championship before. I also believe that I'll be able to put out better games because of that.

Q:If you advance into the finals in MLG who do you hope your opponent will be?

A:It must be Oz-hyung, Other than him I don't know who the other participants might be.

Q:Any last words?

A:Thank you to my teammates and practice partners and my fans.


Translator's note:Doesn't Leenock look kind of like July?

He don't know who is participating in the MLG Winter arena? And if he had studied it 1 minute at all he would see that Oz and he will meet in the 3rd round, if Leenock survives sheth/ThorZaIN and Oz won't get beaten by IdrA or NesTea. Sounds a bit wacky :o

Thanks for the translation, much appreciated. Wishing Leenock the best of luck in MLG Also hope he can figure out his ZvP. Even though the protoss he has lost to so far has been really good ( MC seem to be always win vs him ) I believe he can be unstoppable if he find a way to win vs top protosses.

Leenock fighting~

I thought of a word in my previous post but I couldn't find one, but now I do, not even watching brackets or player lists to an event, is plainly ignorant
