How do you feel about getting your team the victory after three wins?

I had no idea that I would secure three wins like this. It is amazing and it feels good. I feel good because the first game of the new year went well. I think all games are going to go well from here on out.

Did Flash's all kill motivate you?

It motivated me a lot. I wanted to be able to win a lot of games like Flash and I had no idea that that would come true today. Even if I did play a lot, I expected to play at most, about two games. I was feeling uncomfortable cause I felt like the gap between me and Flash was getting big but I am glad that I was able to become the player with most wins currently.

How did you prepare for the match?

Rather than worry about my opponent's style, I just focus on being able to execute my plays to its fullest. I think I can win regardless of who my opponent is as long as I can do my plays well. From here on out I am going to make my advantages more clear and cut.

Your game against Trap was impressive.

That build order is something I used pretty often during practices. It is a hard build order to come back from once you've become a victim of it. My teammates block it often during practices so the win ratio is not the best but I had a feeling that it was going to work this time since it was going to be a televised match. It was a satisfying game.

For this season of Proleague, there are two all kill format rounds. This season's goals?

The goal for now is to grab thirty five victories. You could say that it's a simple goal but if I can achieve then that means that I have done my job to help out the team. My teammates are all very good so I hope we can accomplish many features together.

Who is good on the team?

soO and s2 hyungs are looking really good these days. Also, Bisu hyung is really good when it comes to all kill formats so I am expecting him to go on a surprise winning streak soon.

You adapted to WoL but HotS will be releasing soon.

I am looking at things positively. My mindset is pretty much this: If I'm good at BW, then I will be good at WoL. If I'm good at WoL, I will be good at HotS. In fact, I am actually eager for the HotS release. I've played it a couple of times and it is really fun.

You will be the starter for the match against EG-TL. Are you confident that you will grab an all kill?

I face JYP for game one so I'm going to make sure I use today's momentum to continue to keep doing well. I don't think I should jinx myself by saying that I'll get an all kill (laughs).

Anything to say to the fans for the new year?

I am so grateful always to the fans who cheer me on. I will keep showing a solid form and do fan services so I hope that they'll keep cheering me on.

Anything else you would like to say?

Rain was supposed to go out after me but none the less, he always congratulates me as if it was him who just grabbed those victories. He also gave me a lot of advice as the match was progressing. I want to thank Rain for that.

Yes but his style doesnt look like the ultimate one

Flash is just : i'm passive, but then my macro is so good that you cant win against me
Fantasy is : i'm stupidly agressive, my macro is good but it's my multitask which will kill you

And multitask doesnt look as ultimate as the power of macro :p

In my opinion, yes. Whenever I look up forums, chats etc. Fantasy almost never mentioned unless he has an upcoming match. Well my statement was based mostly on comparison with Flash.

Fantasy's TLPD stats so far in sc2 are sick, It's as good as Mvp's were when he first started crushing in Jan 2011. He's at 74% or 75% winrate overall and above 82-83% in TvT.

And yeah, he is still a bit underrated, I think it will change soon once more people notice him though.

I'm so surprised that Fantasy thinks there was a large gap between him and Flash. Flash is amazing, but Fantasy is so smart (and has SKT Terran pedigree and Boxer tutelage).



SO looking forward to Bisu All-Kills. That would be so rad.

some of it is a bit inflated from frankenleague (fanta was 7-1 there), which probably aren't the best games to judge from imo

Nope I've not lost my mind, most people just choose to ignore how good Fantasy is. No need for hate, those are just my thoughts. I'm happy to be proven wrong.
I think his fanclub thread is noteworthy for this situation. He deserves to be talked more.

I don't think anyone is ignoring how good Fantasy is (they'd be stupid to do so because he's crazy good). It is just unfortunate that he still is in the shadow of Flash, somehow. Past achievements stick with us for a long time, and Flash is easy to hype, I guess.

The reason (T)Fantasy is considered a lesser player than (T)Flash is that he was relying a lot on (T)iloveoov's build orders and tactics in bw. He would easily drop games against lesser opponents when his prepared builds didnt work out. Also he not that good with bio in bw.

The reason Fantasy is considered a lesser player than Flash is because he WAS a lesser player. There's no shame in saying that, because it applies to pretty much every other player who ever picked up BW. You played BW? Then you're in Flash's shadow. Fantasy actually has it good because he's Terran, and so his place in history is pretty clear-cut: behind Flash. It's harder for Jaedong, who would probably have been the GOAT had Flash slipped up a little bit. It's harder for Bisu, who was never really able to defeat Flash in individuals for the longest time.

In SC2 however, the throne is still up for grabs. For a while, it was Rain who held it. Now? I dunno. Bogus is pretty good. Flash is also pretty good, and won the MLG KesPA invitational. Fantasy's right up there with them, and while Roro started failing this recent season, he's still the top Z in KesPA outside Effort/Soulkey.

Fantasy fans shouldn't be worried, because he's bound to keep getting better and better. And Flash fans shouldn't be worried, because he's still younger than most and he's definitely getting better and better. I have a feeling that SC2 will soon be ruled by a Terran triumvirate of Flash/Fantasy/Bogus, and I can't wait to see that.

Of course Bisu will one day surpass them all. He's just pretending to suck right now so that he can repeat the '07 Revolution.

3 for the golden AK. So did Stats, but Bisu had more kills with a couple of other 3 kills.

Bisu scored 3 consecutive AKs in 2011 season :o

Bisu scored three consecutive all kills over the span of 11 days against STX, Wemade Fox, and Ace. Bisu's dominating streak ended at 15 wins

One of stats' allills included a win over bisu

Still, especially bisu's all kill vs STX was seemingly unfair, his game vs calm on bloody ridge was so good

Flash's style does seem more impressive. Makes you go "where the fuck are these units coming from?"

However i much prefer fantasy's style from an entertainment value. Very harass focused multitask play is exhilarating to watch

Thank you captain Fantasy! So exciting. Can't wait to see Bisu, S2 and Rain in an all-kill format. Also the commentators kept going at BoxeR. I hope BoxeR makes fantastic build orders for his old-new son!

by.FantaSy fighting ~~~!

Fantasy has by far the picture-perfect buildorders and execution, while having room to express his distinct ''terrorist'' aggressive playstyle. In his game(s) versus Jaedong, at the time in 8th Team, he showcased how to transition from hellion/banshee into a map-covering bio push. He had an answer to everything, ling-runbys, infestors and even broodlords. The terrorist wouldnt be the terrorist if he didnt used his initial medivac, and the two following it, for multi-pronged drops. The brilliance in his buildorder is that he was ahead in upgrades, took the third on equal pacing, and even made early vikings to kill overlords covering drop-paths. Jaedong couldnt spread his ling/muta/infestor too thin, and took severe damage from the initial drops. By far one of my favorite KeSPA players in the scene with a signature style.

99% of people would say flash is better. But Fantasy has more wins. People just think flash is better because of his previous achievements. Yeah I think fantasy is pretty underrated.

Fantasy actually has it good because he's Terran, and so his place in history is pretty clear-cut: behind Flash. It's harder for Jaedong, who would probably have been the GOAT had Flash slipped up a little bit. It's harder for Bisu, who was never really able to defeat Flash in individuals for the longest time.

In SC2 however, the throne is still up for grabs. For a while, it was Rain who held it. Now? I dunno. Bogus is pretty good. Flash is also pretty good, and won the MLG KesPA invitational. Fantasy's right up there with them, and while Roro started failing this recent season, he's still the top Z in KesPA outside Effort/Soulkey.

Fantasy fans shouldn't be worried, because he's bound to keep getting better and better. And Flash fans shouldn't be worried, because he's still younger than most and he's definitely getting better and better. I have a feeling that SC2 will soon be ruled by a Terran triumvirate of Flash/Fantasy/Bogus, and I can't wait to see that.

Of course Bisu will one day surpass them all. He's just pretending to suck right now so that he can repeat the '07 Revolution.

The SC2-throne is up for the grabs? I hope you realize that Mvp is close to be considered a SC2 bonjwa

The reason (T)Fantasy is considered a lesser player than (T)Flash is that he was relying a lot on (T)iloveoov's build orders and tactics in bw. He would easily drop games against lesser opponents when his prepared builds didnt work out. Also he not that good with bio in bw.

Kinda weird to me too that people would say he is underrated.. He's was wort 9 points in FPL which is only one less than Flash. It's understandable that Flash gets talked about way more, as he was the top dawg in BW for a long time until the very end (yes, it was Fantasy who destroyed him pretty badly in a BO5). Jaedong gets mentioned a ton too, and he certainly has not been as impressive in SC2 as he was in BW. He's good, but not amazing.

I guess my point is: if you're going to compare Fantasy to Flash, who gets all the attention and is probably not as good in SC2 as Fantasy is, and then say Fantasy is underrated, you might as well say that pretty much everyone is underrated except for Flash and Rain.

Fanta calling 35 wins, isn't that a lot? Well I suppose he has 32 more to go.

It's for all rounds. The season is 7.5 months long I believe so it's very possible. He has less then 32 also
When I think of something else, something will go here
