How do you feel about securing two victories in one day?
I had no idea that I was going to be sent out as the ace. I was able to win because coach Kim believe in me when he sent me out. I want to thank the coach for deciding that I would be the ace.
Were you feeling the pressure from the fact that you guys were down 0-3?
I felt pressured a little. I had to win or the team was going to lose. I approached my game with the mentality that I had to win no matter what.
You are showing a strong form on Bifrost.
Whenever I practice on that map, I don't really lose. I always block any all in that comes my way on that map and then I just go on to win. I think that map is very advantageous for Terran. It's because the entrance is narrow and the third expansion is far away. It's also very easy to defend your expansions.
How do you feel about participating in Proleague?
It is fun. The excitement from the fans is also amazing. All these factors are just so good and also a good motivation factor for working hard.
How is spending time with the EG players going for you?
The atmosphere in the team house is really fun. I also don't feel stressed. I still live at home but I often spend the night at the team house when we have a match the next day.
This season's goals?
When I did my interview back at YongSan, I stated that I wanted to grab the most wins award, the rookie award, and the best Terran player award. Also, if we win the championship, they give out an MVP award so basically, I want them all.
When will EG-TL make it to the top?
Around the time when we reach the winners' league, we should be able to to make some really good results.
The team calls you the right hand. How do you feel about that?
It's a compliment I am receiving from skilled players so I feel good about it. I think that kind of name even motivates me to work harder.
You've secured four wins already but who do you think will stand in the way of you grabbing the most wins achievement?
SK Telecom's Rain and KT's Flash are definitely competition. Regarding Rain, I need to grab revenge for the MLG Fall Championships.
If you had to evaluate the KeSPA players' skills for Proleague?
The really good players are similar to the ESF players. There are still players who have yet to adapt completely but I'm sure they will get there with the right amount of effort.
Anything else you would like to say?
JYP sunbae must have reached his mental capacity since he helped me so much on Bifrost that I want to thank him for that. I want to thank the fans, my parents, my brother, and my aunt for always cheering me on. Lastly, I want to thank our sponsors Twitch.tv, Razer, ShinyThings, and Barracuda Networks.

Jaehoon had one of the highest winrates in proleague and Taeja made him look like a child. So gosu

Thanks for translating, Seeker!

gotta break back to carry team

I've become a bigger Taeja fan throughout this proleague so far, really like it. Before I just kinda thought "oh, he's just a top player", that I couldn't get excited about (like Leenock), for reasons I can't seem to identify. Thanks for the translation :D

HerO making his units dance, Taeja with the mules. Seems like they had alot of fun last night performing the reverse. Very well done

Team Taeja with JYP/HerO backing up :D

Thanks for the translation.
"It's also very easy yo defend your expansions" i think it should be to.

Wait... is he telling us to get ready for Team Taeja all-kill action? My body is not prepared.

Random question but since this is EG-TL's first proleague are they all qualified to get best rookie?
|
Awesome! I can't wait for the all-kill format rounds, TaeJa going to destroy! I hope he gets all those awards, without having to be overplayed.
|
How Team Taeja saved Christmas! I hope we'll see more wins, EGTL fighting!
|

Woot! Just what I wanted for Christmas!
And perfect holiday translation Seeker!

go Taeja! Teamliquid!

good question.
my logic would be if it's the player's first time playing in proleague only.
it would feel weird giving Jaedong best "rookie" just because he's in EG-TL

The way I read that last sentence he means that JYP always lost to TaeJa on Bifrost and got really mad.

No, only the players who are playing their first season on PL, which is pretty much everyone in the team beside Jaedong I think.

love you taeja. give us more wins :D

Thanks for the translation! Amazing reverse sweep last night, then again I didn't think they'll be down 3-0 by the time Taeja's turn came lol. He came through for the team and hopefully Jaedong doesn't beat himself silly for losing his match against Turn(or speed). It was quite the show and amazing play from both sides. Turn's multitasking was quite impressive imo.

i hope being called "the right hand" means something else in korea..

oi, i understand the christmas theme Seeker, but damn that's pretty tough on my eyes. Hey R1CH, could we get a Zerg red such as [dred] like [dblue], which would be  Zerg Red like dblue is  Terran Blue ? Good interview anyway, I went to sleep when it was 1-3, glad to see Liquid not get shut out.

Err...Definitely does NOT work like that =____=
and congrats to Taeja! I'd be a little heart-broken if EG-TL kept losing.
Hopefully we can see thorzain take down some players  , i really want him to do well

So, we have finally busted the myth that the team already picked the ace beforehand:
I had no idea that I was going to be sent out as the ace.

Good read, thanks for the translation.

He should've said "Like a BAUSS" that would've made my Christmas Day complete

Thank you for the translation

Thank you for the Christmas present Taeja!

Love the formatting, Seeker. Please do this.

Interesting to see such high praise given to JYP for helping Taeja. He's always been one of the more underwhelming EG players to me, but apparently he's a good teammate.
|
hey, TL winning is always a great new... Thanks for the translation, can someone post the results?
|
Nice translation, it's also nice that the unholy alliance starts to do well!

Yeah, the all-kill format is really good for TaeJa

It's great to see TaeJa regaining his motivation and confidence through Proleague. It really shows on stream how much he is enjoying it. He truly is the Right Arm of EG-TL.
