Re-rendition

Q: You've qualified for Ro8.
A: I did not see it coming. I did not even have any make-up on. I'd have some make-up if I knew it.

Q: What are the key points of today's match?
A: I had not even decided the opening before came here. I just practised on ladder and and heard out team-mates' advice on TvT.

Q: But you are now still in the Ro8.
A: I spent a lot of energy in last year's SPL. But usually started trailing very early in the game, which is very devastating. So this time I just got relaxed. And I won.

Q: Your match with (T)Maru?
A: Best TvT players, (T)INnoVation and Maru are both here. I must be very 'lucky'. [laugh]

Q: Match with (Z)Dark?
A: I chose to go mech, which is feasible because I never did that to him when practising with him. And I prepared something special when practising, so I am very relaxed.

[image loading]

Q: You'll face (P)Super next.
A: I said I am confident in the TV interview. But Protosses are very in form, so I need to prepare more. And even though he's not as famous as herO or Zest, but he plays very well in practising.

Q: You said you'll never lose to a Zerg.
A: This is how this game works. And I am better at TvZ than TvT.

Q: Last word?
A: I thank INnoVation and (T)Sorry for their help. Also to the coach for his encouragement. Also there is an amateur player named Park Ghen-ri (sound) who practised with me, I hope he could find a team soon.

I'm surprised he said Maru was one of the best TvTers. I know we haven't seen him play a ton but between some of the online stuff he was playing and his matches against Dream he looked kind of meh in the matchup

I would like to see how Dream would do against Life

A : This is how this game works.

This may be the very best quote from an interview with a Korean player (with a Korean Terran at least). Such confidence and such balls, I was already a Dream fan but now he's even higher in my personal rankings.

I like Dream. But I think that TvZ comment jinxed him like that one time someone said something about PvP.

Thx for the interview! Dream is a baller lol at that TvZ comment. Also slick picture
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

The RPS Terran, hah.

Nice fighting spirit! I hope he beats Super, if only to get a chance to see his form vs. Life, given that the matches vs. Dark might have been unorthodox due to the teamkill. Life might teach him a thing or two about "how the game works."

Not going to lie, SKT Terrans are my favorites right now. Who would have ever guessed!
Also proof that Innovation is #1.

Does he have a high win rate vs Z to make such claims?

Then I'm supposing he's going to lose to Super because thats just how the game works, right =D

Jinxed himself pretty hard there I love this guy though he plays really well and shows interesting entertaining games too!

He's pretty damn impressive versus Zerg. Like, he destroyed Solar in a Bo5, Leenock in PL, and just has a really good reputation as a TvZ master. I wouldn't say he is that great at TvZ or TvP, but obviously he's good enough to beat a poorly performing Maru.

Is he talking about (ex)Startale Sound? Always wanted to see that dude do something. He's so got damn fast and played some cool games in GSTL right when HOTS came out.

Different guy. This is Dream. Played in MVP for a looong time until he recently got picked up by SKT (amazing pickup! Whoever was deciding who to recruit knew their shit, getting Innovation and Dream.

Note, there is also ANOTHER Korean Dream who played for TSL for a while. Never was popular or anything though. Evidently there is a couple Chinese players named Dream too.
