hahaha, probably not the best way to give your player selfesteem for the upcoming ZvP

also, who is Kim Myung Joon?


According to Liquipedia there is not player on the team with that name. It is probably YoungJoo whos name is Kim Young Joo. Myung Joon might be an error in translation from Hangul to the roman alphabet



In the original post on thisisgame, the name is 김명준, which is actually Kim, Myoung Joon, instead of 김영주 which is for youngjoo.

DRG vs Genius in GSL 2012 had a lot of smack talk between them, especially since they were like best friends on MVP and they played each other in Ro32, Ro16, and the finals that season. Might want to check that out if you want to see two players really go at each other for an entire season of GSL. If I recall correctly, the matches were quite good too (at least by my standards back then).

I really hope Dear wins, he has shown solid play, but he seems to lack in some aspects probably because he gets nervous, so, I hope he can show 100% of his play in the finals and give me new builds that I can copy and try on ladder and latinamerican tournies ^_^.

Did you expect to face him in the final?
soO: I had no idea. I didn't even realize he had made it to the semis.


hahahaha well played ^^

it was but it felt lacking. Like, I dunno, everyone thinks it's good but things like I didn't realize he made it to the semis, well, that's doesn't seem that smack talky to me lol.

I probably missed that but that tweet from MC against Genius a couple of weeks ago before their match was more smack talkish than these two(to me at least).

Doesn't matter though, hoping for a great final between them. Dear to win this so that one more protoss has won WCS KR(GSL)!

Judging from the interview, Dear will not win. He's going to play macro games and lose.

Protoss is a 2 base race (with 3 base plays thrown in as a strong/good surprise strategy) and none of the top protoss seem to abuse it to the max.

Well that's also why they don't win the final very often. Bo5s and especially bo7s are hard for them, because the opponents adjust to the all-ins and timings and once the surprise factor is gone Protoss hardly wins.

In my opinion Protoss are the strongest in bo1s and get weaker the longer the series goes. I think PL stats and the results in big finals support the idea.

Edit: Also nice interviews and Soo will crush Dear!
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
